HEADS UP grey docks instock newegg (OOS Again) - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

you read the title i just got an auto notify on the dock 1 minute ago, hurry now before they run out again
Grey Dock Newegg

Just got the Auto Notify @ 602pm EST..Just ordered mine.Run,dont walk!
UPDATE:By time I posted this and went back to NE..they were GONE!!!

Saying out of stock??????

wow that was really quick!!!

Guess I missed out, it just told me it was removed from my cart....insufficient stock!

I just went ahead & ordered on Amazon. These babies are flying like hot cakes.!!

While I know the intention is to be helpful these are pretty much useless for the newegg stock they go within seconds because of their auto notify feature....

So Amazon have them too? make a thread for it so everybody know.

I got my auto notify at 5:05 CST and immediately went to the site and ordered, but still didn't get there fast enough. Order went through, but I got an email a couple minutes later saying it was out of stock and my order was cancelled.

I got my newegg auto-notify message about 30min later than my nowinstock.net notification, which was allegedly about 15min behind. And when the docks were in stock yesterday, newegg was sold out before I even received a message from newegg. So for anyone still looking to get a dock, I would setup notification with more than just newegg.

I luckily got one. Sounds like the auto-notify is too slow for this. Use nowinstock.net instead. I was driving down the freeway and checked the nowinstock site and saw that it was in stock. So pulled over on first exit and made my purchase. I'd recommend nowinstock.net instead.

I have been using nowinstock for awhile. The past couple of days seemed like nowinstock had a pattern going for Newegg. The updates had in stock at Newegg around 5pm EST for a couple days in a row. Guess what time I tried and scored today? I must have got the last one in a span of forty minutes because I tried for another to put on Ebay and they were gone. Maybe check around 5-6 pm and you just might get lucky with Newegg.

I have one on order as my original battery can't survive more than a few hours of no use at all
i bought a couple of 5/10 dollar "1600 mAh" batteries off of ebay and they work 110% for me...look up my threads in this part of the forum and you'll see pics, reviews and info. Buy em!
can you link your revs?
Just bought one of these myself, any feedback from anyone?
just bought one too, i will let yall know how it turns out.
mine arrived today, just stopped charging this moment
Hope this is worth it...
Just ordered one as the OEM batt on my G1 is not cutting it... Any feedback from those who may be using this battery already?
-Thanks!
Normally I'm a reader not a poster, but I just bought 2 of these batteries off eBay (before reading the horrible reviews) since my OEM battery wouldn't last more than a phone call. I didn't really care if it did better than the OEM, I just needed something to hold me over until I decided to get a new phone.
It took about 2 weeks to get here, and I wasn't expecting any better than OEM but I'm actually impressed. Contrary to what I've been reading the label doesn't feel like it's been slapped on over the original.
Yesterday was it's first full run. Took it off the charger at 9AM and back on at about 2AM at a 39% charge. About 35 minutes of phone calls, half an hour of gtalk, and some market updates. Wifi off, 3G on, brightness at about 40%, bluetooth off, and CM-5.0.7.
I guess we'll see how long the good performance lasts.
mine arrived but lasts as the stock.. is this normal???

I've read many review that people's phones get around 20 minutes of extra heavy use while testing (so all radios on and looping a video). I don't have one, but I'd buy one.

[Q] Is "moisture" under screen issue fixed ?

Is the newton ring issue fixed in newer batches of GTab?
Recent buyers plz provide input
TIA
I got mine a couple weeks ago and saw the issue the other day when I was outside in the heat. It went away when I went back inside, and haven't noticed it since.
My first one had the problem. I could do the refrigerator trick but it just came back. Staples had sold out so they ordered me one. It came in ups ground the box was so hot because here in TX its like 105°... Opened up the box and it was just fine... Even pressing hard on the screen didn't bring it back.
I just got mine on Friday, and after being outside for about 10 minutes, this happened to me. It would go away but would come back after pressing on it. I got new one today from Staples, waiting to see how it does.
I noticed it on my first tab and decided to finally take it back after two weeks. Havent seen the issue on th new one and its been a couple weeks. I dont know if its gotten as warm as it did then though. I beleive it has.

For those without the problem did you put it in a pouch or a case in sleeping mode...cos i think this is where it can happen. Outside a case or a pouch i didn't notice the ring...Last weekend i went to Prague, with my tab as a cool guide...and when i arrived at the hotel, the "Oily" ring was there...the tab was in sleeping mode in my acer case.. Since i'm back at home i put it one time in the fridge in order to make it disapear, but it comes back each time i use it....but now at home the tab is no more in a case and even if i used it...the ring is smaller each day...and may disappear totally at the end of the week. So if those who have "new" tab could test their Galaxytab in this condition it would be helpful to know if the issue is really solved.
Thks to all.
i read somewhere in the web that this was because of the heat.....I live in the caribean so its hot always, and has happend to me twice, but it hasnt happen again

I got a handful of email replies today from the store they are available. I requested to be notified and the email says they are in stock now.
I don't know if you're aware of it but you can get one from Office Depot for $30.
NVM, I didn't realize you were from Norway. My bad.

$29.99 + shipping will probably be less than $49.99 anyway.. And American Dollars $$$ are cheap atm, compared to Norwegian Krone.
I got one @ local Office Depot store for ~ $32 including tax.
I got the email and checked but now it just says its on the way. I dont care anymore because everyone else has them and I got a couple spares.
I got one at OD for $30, when I thought my original was dead before I put it in the freezer and it came back to life.

When that happens, all you have to do is let it sit without being plugged in for 20 - 30 minutes and your good to go again. There's no need to put it in the freezer. Mine did this a couple of times and that's all I did. Something inside the power transformer gets too hot and shuts off so it won't burn up and start a fire or melt the plug.
Well thats a worry right there. It shouldn't be getting that hot anyway if it was manufactored correctly.
I agree whole heatedly, yet there are some people that this is happening to. I'm not sure if it's just a bad batch or if all of them are designed that way. It only happened to me twice. All the other times it's been fine. Weird I know. I wouldn't worry about it too much because it's good to know that the tablet is being protected.
Mine got hot when it was in an area where no air could move over it. Not melting hot, about as hot as my laptop charger. Not that Im all that shocked, its pushing 15v and a couple of amps so its going to get warmer than my phone charger. Its also really small for something doing that. Ive had some smaller laptop chargers get really hot.
Guess as long as it doesnt become an issue I would still take it over the Toshiba charger any day:

Search around - it's a common fix.
Also you will be thankful to me once this happens to you because now you know how to fix it.
I had to search for awhile to figure out wtf was wrong with my charger lol. I also spent money buying another one before being shocked that the freezer trick worked.

This is an O L D fix for Hard drives with on Board electronics IDE and up SATA too
if a multi layered PC board starts to separate because of heat, freezing can bring everything back in contact. Oddly, if it works 15 -30%, it usually keeps working for a very long period of time

It can, will and should get warm.
A side effect of pushing electrical current is heat. This is a law of physics.
The adapter shouldn't get hot enough to melt itself, but it might get hot enough to be unpleasant to hold in your hand.
A question to the hot-charger people.... are you plugging in when the tablet AND keyboard dock are both charging? I rarely use my TF for long enough that the keyboard battery is depleted and then the tablet battery is also depleted. I rarely use the tablet off of the dock.
Got a TF coming in a couple days, and tbh I wish I had read more about them before ordering it, it sounds like this device has a sh1t load of problems that cheapo chinese tablets have got.
disgraceful from a company like ASUS
hey guys...just wanted to let you know that Office Depot (in the US) apparently has these in stock. i have misplaced my charger, and was needing a replacement (my work is paying for it) so i thought i would google "asus transformer power adapter" and see what the link was for the asus store. yes i know its $50, but since work is paying for it then who cares right? anyway, upon doing my search i found a link to officedepot.com selling the power adapter (and cable) for $29.99!!
http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/768723/Asus-Power-Adapter-For-Eee-Pad/
it had "available in stores" so i typed in my zip code, and my local store had "limited availability" showing so i called them. the lady i talked said they had 1 in stock, so i had it held for me, and i just got back from picking it up. booyah! so check the site...you may have to order online, but it least its cheaper than the official asus store! good luck.

Funny I called Office Depot, they said they had one in stock, then said it was on the floor. I said what does that mean, and they said it is plugged into the demo unit. I said that makes no sense the unit came with a charger why would you list it separately since it is part of the unit skew. The guy didn't know the answer but insisted this was the one they had in stock. Told me they should have additional units in stock this week, so I will try again, but Office Depot is a mystery to me.

Extended Batteries 50% OFF!!!

For a limited time, any LTE phone's extended battery is 50% off. You have to call and ask for it.
Just got my Rezound a few days ago at a Verizon store and the extended battery was 50% off there too!

I believe it's sold out online, I've looked as well. I even tried the chat thing they have and the lady just said its not listed. Nearest corporate store is a little over an hour away though, might try calling customer service and seeing if they could do it...
The VZW store has them 50% off as well.. grabbed one from my local store..
+1 ... got it in my store today.
Not sure I'm keeping it. Can't find case.

Got one yesterday, I was thinking about getting one before but didn't feel like spending $60. I was at the store already because my girl wanted to see the GNex because she hates her iPhone. I figured if they had one I get it.
IDK if my battery stats aren't correct or what but this doesn't seem to last that much longer than my stock battery. I fully charged it last night and then wiped the battery stats and turned the phone off for the night. When I turned it on this morning at 9 am it was at 83%, with minimal use today (and no charging) its currently at 35%. All I did was listen to music sporadically for about a total of 45 minutes and talked on it for about 10-15 minutes. I'm in the process of draining it down to zero and then fully charging it again since I'm assuming it an error with the stats. Also before I wiped them it stayed at 99% for a good 20 minutes or so before it was fully charged.
I didn't think the deal was still available until I asked. There were no accessories for the Rezound anywhere in the store. They have in the back.
It was indeed 50% off, plus my employee discount of 25%, which came out to $22 and change.

So the discounts stack? Thanks for sharing!
BTW, the deal is good till Sunday.
These batteries take insanely long to charge! I drained mine down until it wouldn't turn on anymore and it took six hours to charge to 100% while the phone was powered off.
I just called the closest Verizon store in my area (30 min. away). They are selling them for $49.99. They said the discount was for December only.

Well, they're dumb asses because I just got one two days ago. 85% of the employees don't know of a god damn thing about their devices, promotions and other things you would expect them to know about.
2 examples:
1. When I first got my Rezound on the 11/15 I asked the guy if I had the 2 month return window instead of the 2 week window, he said it was 2 weeks, I told him that I saw a thing from Verizon that said it was 2 month and he said it was 2 weeks. Once I got home I looked at the receipt and it said 2 months. This same guy was confused when he asked for my Incredible to "transfer the contacts over" and couldn't unlock it because I had WidgetLocker installed and used the trackball to unlock. He stared at it for a few minutes and said "what kind of software do you have on this? I don't think I'll be able to transfer your contacts over." I told him he doesn't need to because it'll do it automatically when I sign in. He still insisted after that that he needed to "show me the new features of the Rezound" even though I had already proven I knew more than him lol
2. Went to the Verizon store on thursday to show my GF the Nexus and asked a representative if all the 4G batteries were 50%, not just the Nexus and she said no, and so did the rep standing next to her. She then asked another guy who said that all 4G batteries were 50% off.
Mind you, these were the two official Verizon stores in neighboring cities (North Brunswick and New Brunswick, NJ). It's kind of sad when the customer knows more about promotions and products than the employees do.
lmao yeah man, that's why when i had to buy my rezound from a corp store on release day, first thing i said was "yeah i know how it is, i'm a verizon indirect agent."
that shut them both up, and the other guy said to him "just scan in his IMEI and hand him the phone, man" hahahah

The sale ends tomorrow (Sunday the 15th). Got mine in store today. Also my dad said he saw a commercial for it on TV.
Have them try scanning the UPC into the register, it will show up the discount that way. Proof below, click for bigger. I love how the box says 49, but rang up as 59, then was 29 after discount.

I have 25% off for Gov't on accessories and it didn't stack. Still better than what I normally pay.
I am finding your inconsistencies with the reps to be very true. I found a store the next town over that had no problem knowing about the sale. I was sure to let the first store know as I had to drive by it on the way home.
I spent a very amusing thirty minutes or so on chat via the website last night with a complete idiot who kept sending me links to the Samsung Stratosphere extended battery and back, despite my repeatedly sending her links showing the complete inability to even SEE the extended battery and back on the Verizon Wireless website.
Officially she copped to forgetting to put on her glasses (!!) and admitted that they didn't have it online, either in stock or on sale.
This morning, I went into my local VZW store (Plymouth Meeting Mall, PA) and sure enough they had the extended battery and back on sale and in stock for 50% off. I even picked up the TPU case like my regular one which fits the extended battery/back (also $19.99).
As they say, your mileage may vary.

Same here "pending shipping" order on launch day.
I bought mine day one, no pre-order, and mine says pending as well. Called AT&T earlier this afternoon and they said it didn't even have a pending ship date, and the only people who would know anything about what's going on would be the warehouse. Naturally, there was no way for her to contact them. Going to call back today. May have been free, but I was told that I would receive it within a week. I haven't, therefore someone at AT&T is gonna pay for lying, lol. I'll report back if I make any headway.
Guy I talked to said they are on backorder, but it took him 30 minutes to get a straight answer. He said it'll still be around 10-14 day before mine even gets thought of when it comes to being shipped.

How's it work?
How well does it work? Do you find it too slow? Do you find the placement hard to get right, are the audio cues accurate?

Seems to work really well. It doesn't charge as fast as the usb but it's not too bad. I was at 86% yesterday when it arrived and it took less than an hour to get to 100%. I haven't tried any other placement other than lining it up parallel with my phone. Not sure what you mean by audio cue, but it does audibly indicate that it's charging about a second after you set the phone down and takes 10-seconds to realize that it's no longer charging once removed from the pad. The pad has a white LED indicator to show it's charging and goes off when fulling charged.
