I know many of you have been on the hunt for the keyboard dock.
Well, if you still are, then I suggest you runs down to your local Office Depot, as I was able to locate them in at least 3 of my local stores.
Most have received the docks within the past 2-3 days. Good luck!

The Office Depot website also seems to have the actual TF Prime tablet in stock, as well as the black Transleeve.

I ordered one from Best Buy online two days ago and even though it said it wouldn't ship until 1/31-2/14 I received a tracking # today!
Awesome, just made the phone call, on my way to pick it up!
Same with paradismo. Ordered my dock from best buy 2 days ago but got my tracking number today. Will probably get it next week :thumbup:
Edit: got shipped tonight and will get it tomorrow!

Thanks, OP.
This post made me check my local office depot.. and they had primes AND docks.. grabbed a dock this morning.
Great investment so far.
Thanks for the tip! I called my local Office Depot this morning, and they had one waiting for me when I showed up! They said they only had the one, but that it was getting restocked fairly regularly. The TF201 dock does not show up in search on their website when I looked by name, only when you search by item number (941611), or you can just call the store and ask them to look for it by that item number.
Ordered from Best buy, it wss backordered till Feb 15th or something. It was two days ago. Arrived today, didnt even get email confirming shipping. This is crazy. Im happy, keyboard works fine but the battery was depleted. Charging now.
These are all Amethyst docks you guys are finding right? Any luck with Champagne docks at Office Depot or Best Buy?

Yes. At one of the Office Depots I visited, they had received both versions. It's worth a try if you are looking for the champagne version.

Sweet. I'm going to stop by tomorrow. Thanks.
I got mine off eBay and its perfect. The colours may not match and there might be Taiwanese characters on my keyboard, but it works flawlessly and i'm loving the usb port (purple colour dock)
anybody know the sku for the champagne dock at office depot?

This would be handy when I'm calling around.
thanks to the OP, I got my gray/purple -- corporate metal
I just was able to buy a dock from the local bestbuy with in-store pickup! Check your local best buys, they have them! ( I'm in Northern California)
I called several Office Depots and the ones that actually had one in stock only had Grey.
Just picked up mine from a Best Buy here in Denver.

Just ordered the Dock from newegg! in stock beforethe tabs, should ship tomorrow!
Thanks so much. I just ordered one with UPS 3 day shipping. I hope it comes early next week.
Thanks for the info...ordered and shipping
Got one too, I hope. It still shows available. I guess that's good. We'll see.

Everyone who has gotten a dock so far has gotten the grey. I wonder what happened to the champagne docks
I'm sure that these will go for over $250 on ebay.....
Thanks for the heads up. Almost ordered it, but then i remembered i dont have the tab yet, and if i had a kb before the tab i would just go crazzzy trying to get a tab.
Went ahead and ordered. Didn't enjoy Amazon cancelling all willy nilly so they're losing my Prime keyboard business and my Prime business since Office Depot came through.
Thanks for info!
Got one too , originally pre-ordered 2 champagne ones on amazon, but wifee likes a gray one better anyway. Thanks again.
Yea finally got something! The site does not like Discover so be ready with something else.
Got one! Thank you for the tip! I hope they really have stock and it'll ship tomorrow.
Thanks OP
Thanks! I managed to snag one with shop runner 2 day shipping.
Now I just need the actual tablet...
Dang, I wish Discover Card cashback was instant...would love to use the $50 I got for buying the Prime towards this puppy. Have wait 8 weeks.
wife was able to pick me up one for x-mas (after x-mas) thanks to your heads up. I got an email alert from newegg but didn't look at the phone until after reading your post title. Glad i was stalking the forums.
I think it has shown available to order for a couple days now, but says it will ship in 4-7 weeks. Are you guys seeing something different, because I have had one on preorder for ages from amazon.

Newegg shows it as in stock, not preorder.
Yay, got one. Now hopefully my preorder tablet from them comes in stock too
Can't wait until the champagne dock is in stock somewhere. Assuming my champagne tablet actually ships tomorrow, of course.

ordered one but dont have a tablet yet
Ordered, thank you for sharing.
I really looked EVERYWHERE, Bestbuy, Amazon, TigerDirect, Newegg. Does anybody know any other site in which the grey dock is in stock? I do not want to resort to ordering an overpriced $200 Grey Dock to fulfill that void in my soul
Just pre-order one from Best Buy. The shipping date is only like 1-2 weeks. Unless they aren't accepting any more orders.

You just have to be patient and wait for these little windows of opportunity. If you just go ahead and place an order with Best Buy or Amazon, you WILL get a dock within a week or two. They only show up as "available" for a very short amount of time and then the stock is gone. I could have put a grey dock in my online cart at Best Buy a day ago and it would have "left warehouse in 3-5 days". Now it says 1-2 weeks. That is when they think they will get their next shipment.
What I'm trying to say is.....you might not find them IN STOCK at all. But they are getting them in. So if you place an order, it will get filled when they get it in stock again. Are you not able to add it to a cart?
Use this site to monitor the status.

NowInStock wasn't that reliable for me. Items that came in stock for only a few minutes didn't show up on the site nor did I get a notification. Refreshing the item page on the store's website 24/7 was more reliable

I wouldn't say this is the case at all. I preordered a grey case in November and it still hasn't shipped.

There's a topic floating around here somewhere, you go into best buy, ask for an OMS order and give them the sku. Few days later pick it up. Thats what I did. I even surprised the best buy employee for knowing this and he was unaware of this ordering. Got the dock today and the bb employee even ordered a prime and one for himself as well.

What is the sku # for the dock may i ask
I ordered online on Best Buy last friday (01-06-12), and is schedule to delivery tomorrow. I guess I'm lucky.

Go there. That's the original topic with sku and how to do it.

I really like the tab, but mine rebooted constantly after ice. I planed to order a new one but I can't find them at all and several sites seem tohave them tagged as a prodect that is not being restocked. Has anyone seen one for sale from a store in the last 24 - 48 hours

Ordered mine from Office Depot yesterday. Called to verify (1/12 4:45pm est) they truly had some in and was told at that time they had 37 in the warehouse. However, she could not tell me a color, lol. No matter where she went on her computer it wasn't listed. It made me nervous as I already have the Dock sitting here until I checked "Product Details" and it is model TF201-B-GR. I feel better. Not 100% but at lest 85% I'm getting the correct color. Order shipped and I should have it Tuesday.
Too new here to post links but go to Officedepot and search item number 906853 (Still in stock atm.)
I was lucky to find it as NowInStock.net still has it listed as PreOrder.

There are some FRYs Electronics stores that have few of them in stock in the back room. You can have an employee look up the SKU and they should be able to tell you whether they *actually* have them in stock there.
i'm hoping someone around the area might be able to point me to the right direction. live in vancouver canada, and heading down to bellvue washington next weekend. im hoping to get a ASUS Eeepad Transformer Prime TF201 Keyboard Champagne color.
any suggestion where i can start looking that i may have better luck of finding one?
Thanks
I had my Prime and the keyboard ordered from Amazon on the same order. I finally got tired of waiting so long and deleted the keyboard from my order yesterday. Today they're showing a HUMONGOUS improvement on my shipping estimate for the Prime, but now I've nowhere to get a dock!
Lol, I think I'll be happy at least getting my Prime in, but now that I deleted the dock I don't see it anywhere. I'm in the US, if that matters. Have all retailers just completely dropped the product-line?
I was able to buy my TFP from officedepot.com a week ago, and it came in 3 days. I ordered my dock from bestbuy.com, had them ship to store this week, and I got it in 3 days.... I don't see why its been so hard for others to get them... Im in the US, Northern California to be exact.
Check frys.com , I think they have one in bellingham, not sure though...

Best Buy currently has them.

Thanks! I'll wait until the tablet actually gets here (curse Amazon) and then order the same day. Hopefully they'll still have them >.> Frys it is.
Guess the major online retailers just jumped ship then? Consider BB brick&mortar and we've none nearby.
I ordered a keyboard dock the day after Christmas for Amazon and it still says ships between 1st and 15th of February. It's funny how Best Buy keeps getting them in but Amazon is so slow. They must have sold a ton of pre-orders. I'd switch to someplace else but I paid for most of it with Amazon Gift Cards from Christmas.
Hey all, just another post about the dock... anyways, i stopped by my local office depot today and picked up my dock. it was the last one, but just thought id share this info with you. So anyway stop by your local office depot and check if they have one, and maybe, just maybe they'll have a couple in stock. btw, im posting this using my new dock! I think im in love!
I stopped by my office depot and picked one up as well.. last one as well..
I got mine at BB today, apparently one came in on the truck last night. BB gets stock every Thursday the kid working there told me.
Make sure to tell people which color they have.
As a champagne user it was very frustrating reading post like this knowing that it was probably a gray, but still holding out hope that it might not be.
What color was the the dock at office depot?
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk
Went by my local Office Depot (San Angelo, Texas) today and they had the gray dock in stock. Unfortunately, I have the Champagne
On another note, Bestbuy HAD it in stock earlier today, but it sold out before I got there. Additionally, they are now carrying the prime in store.

Yes mine was the grey, I asked the guy and he said they haven't seen any champagnes at all yet, might be safe to assume unless you specifically find a champagne, all BB shipments will be grey.
Fry's in my area had 8 champagne docks yesterday but no gray.
Just picked up 2x docks from a local Best Buy and they had 2x left over. (All Gray)
i have gray so i did not look for champagne... also the prime is not available in any store in south Florida as far as i can tell.. so makes it harder to know who would carry what..
at the two best buys closest to me they had about 30 gold prime keyboards 0 grey keyboards 0 primes i asked the guy to see why they only had gold docks, he said we get what they give us
they had a grey prime on display for you to play with aswell, with a sign saying "coming soon, asus transformer prime" with some nvidia advertisements
