I need to order another one and cancel with newegg if you are canceling with bestbuy amazon or another one that will ship before christmas please PM me before doing so that way i can add it to my cart when their inventory updates!!

I'm sorry you can't blame a 16 year old for wanting his present on Christmas morning!

I spoke with a really helpful rep at Newegg yesterday because I wanted to change my delivery address as I am going out of town for Christmas. She talked to a supervisor and finally came back and said not to. She indicated that there was a good chance that they would start shipping on the 19th and not the 27th as the site says.
This was after I asked her why Newegg was late shipping when other sites were listing the 19th. She said she was going off what was listed on the product page and to hold on she would ask her supervisor. She came back about 3 minutes later and said to hold off on changing the delivery address as there was a good chance it would ship on the 19th. One thing seemed pretty clear when she came back and that is that they will start to ship before the 27th.
Hehe, it's been quite some time since I've been 16 so you're probably right. Maybe we had more patience back then and a bit more self-control. Or I'm just getting too damn old....back in my day we used to play outside.
Either way, I hope you get it by Christmas.
If I don't get mine before Xmas I'm cancelling just to spite Asus. I'll just get clothes with the money or something.

Ok... now we shall see...
Hey... this is the first good news I have heard from someone posting about New-egg. I hope they ship early next week like the rep suggested... I was all doom and gloom until now...
"atlas, there is once again a ray of hope, that in all this uncertainty, there shall become a happy ending... For thou I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, and there is an Asus Transformer Prime waiting for me there"
Behold the Asus Transformer Prime.... Yes, Behold it I shall.
similarly, if anyone preordered from more than one place, instead of cancelling your other preorder, let me buy it from you . . . pm me if this is the case.

Okay. So I can finally preorder. I need some advice on where to buy from. Should I pay the extra $40 at Gamestop because the TFP/Gamepad bundle still says 12/9? Or do I go with TigerDirect or B&H even though I think they have sold out of their initial stock and are just still taking preorders unlike Amazon and Newegg. I am in Texas if that helps you guys form some advice. Will Gamestop charge me tax? Who am I most likely to get it on the release date from? Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide!

Oh and I am sure it's been posted but Asus changed the Prime page from the "It's coming" ad: http://eee.asus.com/en/eeepad/transformer-prime/features
Does best buy still have them available?
I think J&r has them too.

Yep. Dunno if it's gonna be release day though. I'm really not sure what to do. I want it on release day though like most people. Here's the BB link for the gray. They have both docks now too.
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Asus+-+...2443357&skuId=4040165&st=asus prime&cp=1&lp=7
Well you can always opt for the 64GB model. Not sure about where you're from, but here in Canada BB hasn't even put those up for pre-order yet! 32GB seem to be out of stock though. As soon as the 64GB is up for grabs I'm jumping on it.
I'm getting the feeling that once again Asus has undermanufactured their tablet and it will take them months to catch up with demand. We might be lucky to get one by the end of January.
I think I'm ordering the gamepad/tablet combo from Gamestop in hopes that the Dec 9th date is still good for the bundle. I hope its the amethyst gray version. Wish me luck.

I'm gonna be so pissed if that's the case. This is supposed to be my college graduation gift! Better step up my pre-order game.

I literally have 2 days of school left too late for that! Hehe
I cannot make myself hit the preorder button on Gamestop for some reason. I think it is the lack of color selection. I thought I didn't care until it came time to order. Now I think I must actually want the Amethyst Grey. Not sure why I capitalized that but it is what it is.
For updated info on preorders on the TF201 check this site out...
www.nowinstock.net/computers/tablets/asus/
Adorama just started taking preorders the other day, but they werent one of the original preorder sites. So i dont know if they will be shipping out the same day or not as the rest. You'll have to check that out. If i was to preorder now i would pick tigerdirect just bc ive dealt with them in the past.
Thanks rosco. I just preordered at Adorama. They show 'on or around the 15th' as a ship date but it was my last hope to not pay tax. Tiger, GS, & BB all charge tax to Texas. I ordered the 32GB amethysts grey and the dock with overnight shipping ($40...ouch).
Freaking amazon just emailed me and said that I can preorder the prime again tonight midnight pst. At first I thought it was for ordering...but it said pre-order. No telling when I'm going to get that ****. After they screw me over....Would I still check it out....damn it...I would. I'm desperate right now. Gamestop better have that **** tomorrow. Oh and they said sorry and would give a 10$ gift in a few days or so for my cancelation. Hell I already got 30 bucks from them, 10 more would be nice.
same here got the same email, i also notice that the 64gb gold is also available to preorder
same deal, except I actually cancelled my preorder deliberately the first time. but I've had a change of heart so I'm back on with the preorder. this time I'm getting the gold/champagne color.. I didn't realize the amethyst was so purple..
Just looked again after ordering and shows out of stock.
Like I said, must just be for we cancelled folks.
And I am betting we get it in a day. Hopefully Tuesday.
I posted this in the other amazon thread:
Praveen:Hello, my name is Praveen. I'll be happy to help you.

If you don't get your gamestop orders by today, or the latest 23 then cancel it. No point in paying TAX for it when amazon has no tax. Unless you live in california I suppose.
is ordering from the item out of stock page considered pre-ordered?

I re-pre-ordered from amazon last night I just did it quick and did not really pick a shipping. I just changed my shipping to 1 day shipping and it gave me free 1 day shipping so everyone who as not selected 1 day shipping may want to give it a shot could be totally free.

Well, I'm pretty sure the CSR is wrong here. February is far-fetched I would think. I also placed an order last night for the 32GB Grey, hoping that either Amazon or Best Buy will get me one soon, as this was supposed to be a Christmas present for my parents.

Hard to get more, when you hadn't gotten any 32gb gray yet. Those are the ones that were canceled, and now allowed to re-pre-order.
They are admitting to screwing up: "We wanted to let you know your order for Transformer TF201-B1-GR (10.1-Inch Screen) Tablet was inadvertently canceled by our system. We're very sorry about this. "
Bring me the head of the one who inadvertently canceled our orders, yea verily.
Btw, check your original order number (from Nov 22/23), and you'll notice that it's the same order number from this morning - if you re-re-re-pre-ordered...
Just got finished with CSR:
Could you please give me an estimated date of when you may be able to ship this item? I would very much appreciate your help.
Amazon.com order number: XXX-XXXXXXX-XXXXXXX
I understand the item is in high demand currently. I was just really hoping for some type of information.
Ranndy:Hi Xxxxx. I'll be happy to help you with this order
Me:thank you Ranndy
Ranndy:Yes, it has a high demand and it is currently out of stock unfortunately. Please bear with me a second, I'll try to get further information
Me: ok, thank you
Ranndy:Thanks for waiting, almost done
Me:thank you for looking further into this for me
Ranndy:You're very welcome
According to our supplier, we're scheduled to get more on December the 30th, Xxxxx.
Then we said bye. So, I don't if this helps, but he was not typing for about 5 minutes at one point, which I guess indicates he was actually looking, he then said almost done, and I waited about another 4 minutes for his response.

ASUS isn't silent at all. Here's what they said to Engadget:
ASUS started filling the inventory pipelines this past week for our new Eee Pad Transformer Prime and will continue to do so on an expedited basis for the foreseeable future. We will reach normal inventory levels in January for the North American market based on current orders and forecasts. Based on forecasted supply schedules to our valued partners we expect pre-order allocation fulfillment to occur shortly and online or in-store availability in the very near future. We will continue to work closely with our partners to fill customer orders as quickly as possible.

I didn't pre-order from amazon.
I ordered on the 19th after cancelling my newegg pre-order.
Just got this email. Same date for my dock as well. I think these just might ship with ICS
Hello,
We now have delivery date(s) for the order you placed on December 19, 2011 (Order# 103-8767212-xxxxxxx):
"ASUS Transformer Prime TF201-B1-CG 10.1-Inch 32GB Tablet (Champagne)"
Estimated arrival date: January 26, 2012 - February 09, 2012
I got the same email. I may just give up on this tablet :-/
I really think Asus is doing some quiet back tracking and recalling a lot of these tablets that was sent to US.
This would explain why the local Best Buy's in my area were quite confident that they're shipment was going to be here by the 19th and soon changed their tune to that they didn't know how soon they would get them and that they were suppose to get them earlier but Asus pulled their shipment and they've pulled their new shipment.
I really think that story from Canada about the faulty Primes were true and Asus is being super hush about it with in regards to the US.
This is why there have been so few sold here following the launch.

I assume they figure early adopters wouldn't give a crap. Which they rarely do. I'm just glad we're going to get a next rev tablet. Maybe we'll see an improvement. Maybe they'll carve a hole out of that aluminum slab to fit a proper antenna.
Screw Amazon
OK guys, amazon messed us up big time. So what I suggest we all do is, wait for them to credit us the 10 dollar they promised and then cancel any orders you have with them and go to another place.
I mean I got my prime from gamestop last night, but still have 2 on preorder from amazon. They got the nerve to send us an email and say we can preorder again and we waited til midnight to do it, and we got the same date as people ordering much later. That's so not right. You'd think they would have it sooner. So by friday you all should be getting the 10 dollar amazon promised. If not call them and as soon as you get it. Drop the preorder.

WoW, if they don't tell you early they are not informing you and if they wait till the last minute they aren't being honest.
Curious to know, were you planning on buying 2 preorders from Amazon or were you going to cancel one or both so they would have to change their inventory allotment again for distribution of preorders? (hint about wherein lies at least part of the problem)

To answer your number 2 question. I order 2, but intend on only keeping one, whichever was available first. At that point I also rushed to preorder at other sites because I had only originaly ordered one from amazon. Seeing as how amazon canceled my order and seeing how there is delays everywhere, I decited to order from several different places hoping that I would get one of them. You see, if Amazon would keep my ONE order, I would not have to run all over the place ordering everywhere else, including reordering 2 from amazon hoping to get one. It turns out that I did get one from gamestop, which now will force me to cancel both amazon orders. You think I like buying from gamestop? I hate them, and I also hate paing taxes. I could have saved by buying from amazon, which I want to, but they have failed me and they failed again on the second preorder sending me back to the end of the line.
Got your 10 dollar from amazon?
Were some of you promised 10 dollars? Have you got it?
I thought Newegg was a big Asus dealer? Way it sounds, I am assuming not.
I have been told that they were receiving shipments on December 27 for pre-orders. Then it was pushed to today. Now I am being told that within the next two business weeks, they will be receiving confirmation of when they will receive more.
I guess on the bright side, no one else is getting them either, but doesn't sound like NE got that many to begin with.
Today mine got to the office depot warehouse after ordering on the 20th. 1/5 delivery date. I had been checking up on new egg as well and they never have any updates.

According to them for circumstances beyond their control, they never got them. They will know within 2 weeks when they supposed to get more.
The only reason I am sticking with Newegg is I have a $300 and some change credit.
I might the bullet and pre-order somewhere else and play the waiting game
Newegg is so clueless!
Preordered the Prime on 12/07, 32G Grey.
Was first told Dec 27, they would have some to ship for preorders. Was then told January 3.
I called them today and was told that they will have confirmation of receiving more within next two weeks.
Hung up the phone and went to Newegg less than 5 minutes after my call and low and behold the 32G grey and champagne was in stock ready to order. And they had a limited offer of a free Asus Carrying case as well.
Ordered and have been charged and is currently in packaging status.
I am pissed because the preorder people have been hung out to dry. Should not be able to just go to site and order if preorders have not been fulfilled.
Did anyone else get a free carrying case as well? My order doesn't show it, but it was there and I will raise hell if I don't get it after what we have been through.

Eh this is kinda bleh...
I pre-ordered from sprint and called them about 8 times trying to cancel so i could pre order from wirefly. ALL of them said i cant, only until its ABOUT to ship out then i can cancel it...
6 out of 8 of them kept saying how they dont have a date but its getting to the warehouse to be packaged on may 16th.
I doubt we will get it before the 18th. It will prob ship the 16th and come 2 days later in the mail on the 18th. =/
sorry to be a Debby downer!
Got 2 preordered. Would be awesome if they come this week.
lol, Sprint's order status message changes like 4 times a day. This must be some kind of running gag they have going at their office...
When I called to confirm my ID for my order on Monday, he said preorders would be guaranteed delivery the day of or 1 day before the release date (depending on location). This seems to fall in line with that so I'm happy
who knows with them, just talked to my friend at the corp store on the campus and she said this to me
"Pre-order gets you out of the hassle in the store and waiting. That's about it."
damn, well guess ill just hope it comes in sooner than later
Yea, I had gone into Sprint to talk to them about it and what they had said was it would arrive one day before or on the release day. However, with the iPhone 4s, they had so many pre-orders that they had arrived one day after launch day, so we will just have to wait and see.
With the Galaxy Nexus, it launched on a Sunday, and people had them in hand on Friday and Saturday. They usually do a pretty good job of trying to get them out before the official release date.
I know Best Buy and a couple other 3rd party retailers said they weren't going to release before the 18th, but I don't mind the wait. It'll give me a few more days with my EVO before I turn it into a dev phone

No problem. Also FYI while I was on the phone with Sprint I asked about my activation fee and he initially said that I would have to pay it. I explained that I ordered through sprint even though I could have gotten the phone much cheaper through a 3rd party and I would appreciate it if they would wave the fee to help offset the cost difference. He put me on hold for 1 minute and said the activation fee has been waved.
When I pre-ordered with Sprint, all I had to pay for, besides the phone, was shipping. No sales tax and no activation fee. The only thing that upset me was they wouldn't let me upgrade my line. I'm eligible 6/1, from when I bought my 3D. They wanted me to pay full price or wait. I then told I'd upgrade another line. I was looking at my account on line and told then the phone number for my Airave. He checked the eligibility and congratulated me. I couldn't believe it.

Sprint's warehouse and shipping are all managed by UPS. Their warehouse is literally at the end of the runway where the plane takes off. My Evo 3d preorder shipped at 12:30 am and I received it the same day it went on the plane. There is a video on UPS's website about this.

Many people who pre ordered the EVO 3D received the phone before release date. I remember being jealous and wishing I ordered through sprint instead of best buy. I don't see why the LTE would be any different. I'm planning/hoping to receive the phone next Wednesday or Thursday as they typically do overnight shipping.
