I saw a dock coming out for the NT and the KF. It look pretty neat and has a built in speaker. I can't recall the web site but i'll poste it when i find it.

Is it this?
Looks interesting...Prolly priced around $40.00 (just guessing)
I would assume a more hefty price tag.

wow, i almost got out of my chair and bust a move when I watched that video.. lol, would be even better if it had a keyboard attached so we could type a little better when roms come out.

I was hoping to use a usb keyboard when we get roms.
Sooooo March is when this thing is going to go into pre order status priced at 60$

Even you were a beginner once
If this post helped click the thanks button!
remember QTIP - Quit Taking It Personal
I have a rooted NC and I am just waiting for the right time root my wifes NT. I think this would get used in our house I just cant justify spending $60 on it right now (or March).
Looks cool, but it seems a bit bulky. I can't see lugging that thing around anywhere, and I don't use my NT at my desk at home enough to justify that. I like the business card holder/stand that albertwertz uses. I'll probably go w/ that.
albert's card holder charger?
Do you know what this is and where he got it?
(POST DELETED) Wrong tab, sorry about that XD

I use my Nook as my main alarmclock and bedside reading/watching device. This would be perfect. I was thinking about making a dock but I couldn't think of a decent way to mount the charge cable.

The official Asus sleeve is in stock now at their online shope in the UK.
Here: http://shop.asus.co.uk/shop/gb/en-G...0--ASUS-Eee-Pad-Transformer-TF101-Sleeve.aspx
Price isn't to bad so ordered one with a my 10% off code.
I ordered one too. Didn't have a discount code though.
Hopefully they will deliver quickly.

i ordered one too after having my order from amazon cancelled yet again!
Thanks for the heads up bud.
Just a heads up that although this website is AsusUK, the sleeves are actually being delivered from Germany and although its says dispatched within 24 hrs it still takes several days for them to arrive.
I was thinking that for £6 UPS it should come next day. I need to read the small print more thoroughly in the future.
My order status says "In process" but when I phoned the customer service number they said it had been shipped but there are no tracking details. She said I should have it within 5 days. I would have thought the status should say shipped and I would have expected an email to tell me that too.
I have already cancelled one order from Asus Laptops after waiting 2 weeks and being fobbed off by them several times with ficticious dates.
I have now had an email from them saying it has been shipped and the order status has updated to shipped with a UPS tracking code so obviously it hadn't shipped at the point the lady said it had. Expected delivery is Thursday according to UPS website.
Yep, got my confirmation email earlier too and mine also says delivery for this Thursday!
Thanks for sharing...now to keep a look out for the USB adapter...
Just ordered one.
Deffo comes from Germany. I paid with Paypal through their .com site yet the invoice came from .de
do these work with the dock?

Excellent, as i was going through checkout i paused and registered the device on vip.asus.com as itt registered a pop up with 10% off code appeared so used that for a few pounds off, top job
So what do you think of the sleeve. Mine arrived yesterday. It is OK but is not worth the price.
The one position stand is a pain since a lot of games like angry birds don't rotate so are upside down if you turn the pad upside down for the low stand position.
I will be keeping an eye out for a better one.

Could you post some decent pics please, the official ones area bit small
Well, as luck would have it, I saw a tweet today about being able to go see the transformer prime at select Gamestop locations. There were two in Colorado that were supposed to have them to demo.
I called one of them in Denver, they said they had a display unit and a unit to sale. Well, hop in the car, and now I have an Amethyst Grey 32GB sitting next to me, completely sealed.
I wanted the 64GB version, and I think I will hold for that from Amazon. I'll probably just sell this one on craigslist.
I know I'm very lucky. The first time I've ever had anything like this happen to me.
Pictures of the Prime that I bought can be found here:
http://www.chrisdos.com/transformer_prime/
Congratulations! Hope you"re ready for a flood of "can you try this...." and "does it....." requests!

I'm keeping it fully sealed. Gamestop won't let you return it if it's opened.
Thanks for the UPC & SN! I'm off to get my virtual Prime registered!
WAIT A SEC! I JUST FOUND A REBATE! YAY!
Edit: Hey ya OP.. can ya put the receipt back online.. I just wanna make sure you got it fer real..

Stuck it on Craigslist. Some of the people on IRC are saying I should take a dump of the rom before I sell it. However, if I open, I can't return it. Decisions, decisions.
Just called a gamestop about 75 miles away from me & they have the 32gb champagne gold one (purple) but i'm thinking i won't ever hardly ever be looking at the back of the thing anyway lol.My Xoom stays in a gel cover or either the folio at all times..so color really shouldnt be a big deal.

Take a dump of the rom. If you are going to sell it the Gamespot "warranty" isnt going to worth much anyways.
I just came from my local gamestop and they had it on display
played with it but they wouldnt sell it to me

Man, you have no idea how lucky you are! Most people on here don't even have PRE-ORDERS for it and you own one... SELL THAT *****!

Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
Lucky Mofo. If you don't plan on keeping it, smartest move now would be to put it on eBay. I'm sure you could easily get $800 or more for it. Since it's so rare and not even officially out yet. You should contribute by dumping the rom to developers so we could have a nice headstart on developing. The sooner the better and faster we get custom roms, CWM recovery, n over clocking.
Do a system dump dude listen to them then sell it on ebay I'm sure even opened you could still get Atleast 600! Just leave the clear plastic stickers on
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
Aftermseeing this thread I called around to local gamestops to see if they had it. They said only the big store ones around here would have it. I found one and they said none in stock yet but they will have it on the 19th. Only thing is he said they only taking pre orders on it so once they come in, they pretty much all will be accounted for. Especially since demand is so high. He said everybody been calling like crazy and going bananas looking for that tablet. I was like I know, it's the first quad core android tablet..LMFAO
Wife won't let me open it to do a rom dump. Shame really.

I am looking to purchase a Gray keyboard dock for the Transformer Prime TF201. If you happen to be one of the ones that is stuck with a dock and no tablet I would like to purchase it from you.
Please no inflated prices ... I am willing to pay $190.00 for it which should easily cover the original price, taxes, and expedited shipping to me.
I'm buying this for my daughter for Christmas so any help would be appreciated!
Just reply here or PM me if interested.
UPDATE: Already purchased one from New Egg ... thanks everyone!
I don't think anyone even has the dock yet, sorry. If they did, I don't think breaking even on expenses is worth having gone through all the trouble of finding one.
Given that docks are tougher to come by than tablets, good luck getting one with no premium.

Personally if I had the dock I would sell it to him. The dock doesn't make or break a tablet for me. Hope you find one
The docks will arrive at online stores on January 5th. There are a whole bunch arriving then.
In stock right now at newegg. just placed my order, should be here monday!
Newegg has the gray dock available now.
Lol beaten
Thanks everyone for the heads up! Just ordered from New Egg .. it won't be here by Christmas but neither will my daughter's tablet (Est delivery for tablet is the 28th)
I wrote this early in the morning after I finally gave up on the prime. Here is the link to the story.
http://nerdtechnics.com/?p=11
The site is clean, I miss my Prime.....
OK...lol. yeah its better you linked to that story as its more like a blog. Very detailed on your experience. You left everyone hanging though. What they end up doing or you doing after they wouldn't give you cash back for gift cards. It was free gift cards anyways so I would've just pulled the small cash amount out n placed another order. Don't let best buy taint your yearning for the Prime...lol.
Haha, sorry, was getting late and needed to end it quickly. I asked the cashier to go get a manager because he couldn't give me cash for the gift card. Manager came over, I just said that I had been over at customer service for the last hour and a half and that I'd like cash for this gift card because i am no longer going to shop at this store.
I just got so annoyed with the waiting game. Anyone I spoke with had absolutely no idea what i was talking about most of the time. Also, the computer guy that came over to check the Prime, he actually says, "why don't you just get an ipad"? I wanted to slam his head against the counter.

The computer guy saying that is what pushed me over the edge. Maybe it's just me, but if someone brought back the first quad-core tablet, I would NEVER say, why don't you get an ipad. Face slap!
Cool story bro.
Thanks for taking the time to share that story.
I've always detested BestBuy. They're the "Hot Dog On A Stick" of consumer electronics stores. Too well lit... Too plasticky... Forget about getting anything even remotely obscure there -- too few choices on most things.
'Won't even get started on how borderline criminal Geek Squad is. $25(ish) to "optimize" my e-reader?
Being an IT professional, I advise as many folks as possible to avoid that store and go elsewhere... anywhere...
That's MY story, sort of...
Actually the main difference was, on that Friday when they wouldn't put a Saturday delivery sticker on for you? They went the extra mile for me, and SENT IT GROUND (after I had paid $29 for overnight shipping 4 weeks earlier), causing it to take another 12 days to reach me in a padded envelope, after riding via Rail from California to North Carolina. The box was quite crushed, though the Prime seemed okay... at first.
oh, and they charged me for the pre-order immediately, even though the policy says "we won't charge until we ship" so I had paid for it almost 6 weeks earlier.
The good news? I got my Prime for free. Yep. BB provided a FULL REFUND. I should be happy yes? Sort of. The Prime ended up RMA'ed, and I am without it once again. The saga continues. It was agreed to send me another one, yesterday, overnight. And yes, I agreed to let them open and test it since I am NOT going to be without it again, but instead of shipping it yesterday - Thursday they forgot... whoops. Now I wait till next week, unless I can get Asus to do a Saturday sticker...This is like the movie groundhog day... it literally never ends.... and I so lived my OG transformer... It's like I am being punished for wanting something more... The Prime I got paused, hung and lagged on virtually everything I did with it. It was cosmetically nice, but never saw a single GPS satellite. Wifi... fair... Light bleed, not terrible, but enough to cause concern, in every way it was ... not much better than my TF101 except in looks, and took a better picture. Not nearly as slick as I had hoped. Looked wonderful with the dock though... Horrible to keep clean. ICS is cool, but again, it lags so often, ... well maybe the nbew one will be better, or enough updates will come along to get things right... sigh

Thanks for posting this. I am glad to know I wasn't alone. That is pretty awesome that they gave you a free one, hopefully you get it soon! My device did work pretty well. Still got hung up every once in a while but I just couldn't spend that kind of money and not have at least the build quality done well and I am not dealing with that many dead pixels. If it were just a couple, that's another story.

Maybe that is why I don't get a great signal with my D-Link dual band gaming router, I didn't buy the solid gold packet protecting ethernet Cables! It has nothing to do with having a three floor residence.
On the other hand, I did work there for three years so I do know how to game the system. Due to the one year ADH I have only had to pay 99 a year to upgrade my laptop to a newer version.

I'll be honest, while the form factor of the Nook plays a large role (I love the bottom left corner thing, it helps make it unique), another significant reason for this purchase is the necessary hacking/B&N defying. I have a Xoom as well and I love the thing but its 10.1" and thus not ideal for portability/reading and the GED aspect of it takes away that hacking feeling.
I can't wait to get started on the Nook.
tracking says mine is out for delivery, I'm literally on the edge of my seat waiting to hear the knock of the delivery at the door. I'm also anxiously awaiting the SD card cm7 so I can leave the internal stock and dual boot

No tracking number for me . Ebay seller added insurance + signature delivery via USPS. Priority mail though so hopefully have it soon.
Also I'll be installing to internal . I'll also be installing the Kindle app. Screw B&N.
Staples
Staples has the Nook Color 8gb for $169 + you get a $25 GC or the Nook Tablet 16gb for $249 + $25 rebate. I don't work for Staples just found the deal. Debating on getting the 16 n rooting it )
