I agree but at the time of purchase, Fry's was selling it at $499 and Amazon for $650!!! for almost $700 (tax included), I got both they keyboard and the Prime where Amazon would have been $800 more.
Plus, no wait.

I went into shock when I saw that too
You just have to wait for amazon to offer it as a official seller (how I got mine).
But I get next day shipping for 3.99 with my free 6 months of amazon prime.
Where can I find a champagne keyboard?

Actually, Amazon has never sold the Prime for anything more than its retail price ($499 for 32GB, $599 for 64GB). Those inflated prices are by people just using Amazon as a storefront. Worse than the inflated price, maybe, is that you don't likely get the same return policy as with Amazon. Basically, buying from those people is pretty much exactly like buying off of eBay.

I got the last one Fry's has on any of their stores in So. Cal. a couple of week ago. I drove from O.C. (Santa Ana) to Oxnard in Ventura county to get it but luckily I had work to do there so my company (I drive a company car) paid for the gas to go there and get it. My gps doesn't work but I was aware of the problem when I purchased it, that is why I still use a Garmin Nuvi 660 for my gps navigation.

I ordered mine from Gamestop online. It's Going to be here Tomorrow (2/20). I ordered it Wednesday (2/15). It would of been here Friday (2/17) Originally, paid $24 to overnight it. Since I never purchased on Gamestop.com with that expensive of a order & different shipping address from Billing address, the system put it on hold till I called from my Billing phone number (Never received email they said they sent). That was Thursday (2/16). Next day called up, to find out cause still never got my shipping notification email. something happened where kicked that error up again, this time the rep said to ship it's verified. Later that day Friday (2/17) i received the email saying there was a issue to call this phone number. This point I am getting way beyond pissed, so called yet again, lady said no it's all set that she just sent emails out. It will be here Tuesday. So I said that's it, I'm NEVER shopping at Gamestop again. I buy all my games and accessories for all my consoles there. I have PSP, PS3, WII, XBOX 360. Plus I purchase their powerup subscription. She was very apologetic for all my issues, explained why everything happened. Then she have me the overnight shipping for free.
On Wednesday before I ordered I wanted to make sure they had it available,.only one they had was the grey 32GB Bundle. It comes with a Bluetooth controller (Looks like a aftermarket PS3 controller). He said that there was a few hundred left of that, but are going fast.
Link is here: www.gamestop.com/tablets/asus-transformer-prime-32gb-grey-tablet-bundle/98405
So if you order before Noon, have no hold ups, and overnight it will be there the day after next. (example order on a Tuesday, should receive on that Thursday.) As I said if there is no "hiccups". The last person I talked to was great, took care of it & said she will over see my order, do everything in her power to get it to me on Monday, but still said probably be Tuesday, and anything else pops up she would personally call me. Few hours later I got email with tracking number I go on UPS to check, sure enough it said Monday.
Hoped that helps, sorry for the book.
Again call up to check if they have in stock before you order.
Also Amazon said they should have them available on the 24th, that includes prime membership as well. Believe it's the 64GB grey model for the normal price $599
GOOD LUCK!

Thanks man. Oddly it is saying my local Game Stop at the mall has stock "been checking for days" lol & swore i checked today. But sure enough it says tonight after they are closed they have some. Gonna call first thing in the am. If they don't i'll order one. I hate waiting, even for 1 day .
They sent me a email saying after i requested one on hold.....
Dear Vincent,
We received your request to [email protected] for the following item on 2/19/2012 at 11:20 PM.
Here's what happens next:
We will search and track down the item you wanted at the store(s) you selected.
You'll get another email from us with our search results. Hang tight.
So yea we shall see. Does your power up card work for the 10% discount? That would be sweeeeeet!

Just called them this morning, did not even know they where going to be selling them. The said they filled pre orders on a first come first serve basis. I went to the store and pre-ordered there, and received my 32 GB champagne Tablet withen 20 minutes.
*NOTE* they only have the 32 GB Champagne color.
Unfortunately it is a Christmas gift, so I will not be able to give any information on it.
EDIT: They will apparently ship even though it says in store pickup online. Just use the Chat.
When are they shipping?

its an electronics store in illinois. damnit!
Wow - shows them as in stock and available for in store purchase! They are about 1 hr away from me. I should hop in the car and head over there.
Yes i have received the prime.
I went there with no pre-order and did like a switch-a-roo and pre-ordered it in store just so i can be on the list of people that can pick one up.
They only have a store in the Chicago-Land area unfortunately.

Well if you live in Illinois you might be lucky enough to get a Champagne model. They definitely don't have the Grey in-store yet.
I just called for an online order and I was told I'd have to wait until mid-January if I ordered from them.

They told me in store that they would receives a trickle of tablets everyday so I'd call every day as they seem to be the most helpful.
I bought mine from Kevin if that helps.
they charged my card and sent me an invoice.. my guess is tomorrow i will get a notice that it will not ship and i will be out the money and have to wait for them to refund my money.
This is getting ridiculous. They are showing up in flashes at places we never expected from all the announcements, then they are gone before anyone can react!
I've never chased a pre-order like this before - completely out of control....

Got an order in with a CSR. Started an online chat session right after I saw this thread open. Originally the CSR said that they didn't have any of the models in, but then said he'll check one more time.
After a couple minutes, he told me they had 5 left of the Champagne 32gb only. They had originally received 15, but 10 were accounted for by preorder.
He then gave me his telephone number and told me to call right away.
I called, and we went ahead with the order. Luckily, I've already been an ABT customer, so all my info was in the system. Just had to give them my credit card info.
Chose 2-day shipping, and was told I should get it on Friday.
I received a PDF invoice through email, but my order isn't showing up online yet ( crosses fingers).
This is absolutely crazy. I've had preorders in at 5 or 6 retailers, and it's come down to this?
The funny thing is, I was just shipped a gray dock yesterday from Best Buy. Gray dock and Champagne tablet? lol.

Just caught that one and placed an order. Got an email that says:
Order in process of being fulfilled. Estimated arrival date: 12/29/2012 - 01/03/2012
Not going to cancel my other backordered deals with Office Depot or Amazon until I get a tracking number though.

Man, if Best Buy actually ships these things to people who ordered today, and don't honor their offer to switch backordered Champagne models to Grey and ship those first, I'm going to be PISSED. Yes, I'm posting this in two threads, but that just shows how pissed I am. I NEVER cross-post. Or rarely.
Damn, Best Buy, you just couldn't have screwed this up more.
I had this page open on my browser with the audible notify set to on and it worked:

Man, I feel for yah. Had a similar deal with Office Depot shipping out units to people that odered well after me while I was on backorder. If I cancel my order, someone else will just grab it up though.
I'd preferred the gold version, but this'll do.
ShopDiscover.com gives a 10% discount on purchases through bb.com
But it states: Offer not valid on laptops, desktops, hard drives, Geek Squad services, online photo center sales, digital downloads, long distance or internet sales, or mobile plans
Wonder if this tablet is considered part of the laptop/desktop restrictions.
This makes no sense if it is true. Mine is supposedly back ordered to mid Jan./Feb......
Hallelujah
I've been waiting on Best Buy to update their site for the longest.
I just ordered.
12/29-01/03/2012 is the estimated arrival , my grand total was only $529.64 after tax as I was able to use my $5 dollar off Reward Zone coupon.
and the shipping is FREE
Thanks! I just ordered. I thought this christmas was gonna be a bummer, sold my og transformer last week and was going through withdrawals.
And those backordered ppl I hope they saved some for you and send em to yall first.
Is it champagne that is backordered? I wanted grey anyways so it don't matter. Just need a dock now.
Was planning on getting from gamestop so I could get free games, but I can't wait.

So using shopdiscover.com for the 10% cash back bonus, if the bonus is given on this tablet then it'll come out to be cheaper than Amazon even with shipping.
Just bought one right now from best buy for my girlfriend.

Score
Just ordered, thanks for the heads up, it should arrive next week, my dock also shipped from newegg. Happy Holidays to all!!!
P.S. I'm still on the look out for a champagne one for me, wifee is all set
Glad I was able to help. I am so excited, keeping my jan. 26th amazon order for a few more days just in case. I am so glad this is almost over...
You all realize you just ordered from the company that has about 100 pages talking about how stated delivery dates are pretty much meaningless. I wouldn't cancel other pre-orders until you have a tracking number. It's hard to believe BB cleaned up their act in 72 hours.
SICK!!! OP just saved Christmas for me. Will deliver on the 27th!!!!

My boss actually gave me an Ipad2 yesterday as a xmas bonus but I sold it last night and used that plus an extra 50 bucks to order at Bestbuy.com. I hate paying for taxes but Amazon taking too damn long!!! Thanks for heads up.

party pooper.
but hey wasn't it rumored that Best Buy was undergoing some mandated meeting today regarding their Christmas order commitments. I know I read it here or from the forums.bestbuy.com site.
Perhaps this is the result of that.
I am having trouble believeing it, but it's true. I JUST got off with a supervisor at ABES:
Just got off my THIRD call with Dishonest ABE.
They don't have a SINGLE KEYBOARD DOCK IN THEIR WAREHOUSE OF EITHER COLOR!!! I don't know about tablets, but I had:
Call 1: "Processing" should be all set
Call 2: "Uh, we ill have them in 4-6 days, should go out Tuesday Wednesday of last week" - This was where I get REALLY concerned.....
Call 3: - Supervisor: The guy TOLD US WE WOULD HAVE THEM, but it fell through, and we don't know WHEN we are going to have them."
"Then why did you put "AVAILABLE" on your site, instead of Coming soon, pre-order - 4-6 days, etc..."
"Cause he said.... " I was like oh **** YOU I am so sick of these BS lies. You put AVAILABLE when you HAVE THEM... NOT BEFORE ****head!!!
It's BS. They either have NONE or got a few and freaking oversold just like Amazon, Best Buy and the rest of the free world. Is Asus distribution channel run by insane asylum escapees or WHAT????? The one common element here os ASUS. Certainly all of these retailers didn't go eveil overnight or something (though some ALWAYS were, BestBuy)
I am LIVID... Now out comes my poison email to ANOTHER CEO AND CORPORATE OFFICES... WHY must I go through this
The rude **** ended with, so: I'm gonna cancel your order anyway, even if you tell me not to (I said, you want to repeat that for my recording, I want to make sure it's clearly heard.
Sorry, I double posted, but wanted to help stop people from ordering here. We have had enough of ths from the rest of the channel, no need to stay bent over for more... MAN!
Thank god Citi declined my transaction.
Same here. About a week, they said. Cancel, I said. Bastids.

Wish I'd seen this before I ordered.
I just got off the phone with these liars. I told him the order page is back to saying 2-3 days, he apologized for the misinformation said it'd be about 1-2 weeks.
Think I'm going to find another source and cancel on these vermin.
As far as I can tell no merchant has them in-stock right now so it's really ASUS who's slow on the delivery of these. They obviously weren't shipping keyboards in conjunction with the tablets.
Just can't trust a company that says "Of Maine" yet is in NYC
My order status changed to "sent to warehouse" last night. Having no idea what that means, I called, and was told that they have it, it is being prepped to ship today, will be sent tomorrow AM, and I should have my dock on Wednesday.
Sorry some of you got shafted, but they do/did have some in stock.

Fwiw, I ordered Thursday, immediately after seeing the "in stock" thread. That is likely the difference. I do not understand this manager saying it is not there though, uless he meant that it is coming in today, and the OP's place in line didn't make the cut for place in line versus items received. The swearing probably didn't help either, even though I fully empathize on the frustration level. :-\

Don't know where to go from here. No body had any in-stock last I checked. Gamestop had no date, and neither did Amazon.
Like a few others, I ordered late Thurs night when the status was "available ". My credit card was charged Friday, I was notified it was "in process" for 1-3 days, now today my status shows "shipped to warehouse ". I am confident in will get mine in a day or two. Am I pleased I paid $40 for express shipping and it's going to take 4 or 5 business days? No. But I think did not read where it clearly states it cn take 1-3 days to process so that is on me.
I'm sorry for those of you who ordered when it said "available " and aren't getting yours. I blame their stock tracking/ordering software more than the company being "dishonest ", I really doubt they tried to intentionally screw anyone. They actually seem like one of the few able to make deliver and are being up front about when they will get future stock.

Suckage
What is the status of your order, was your cc charged, did/does it show as shipped to warehouse?
I bought my pad off of newegg.com last thursday. They have been showing up periodically, only when they actually have stock availible. In most states they don't charge sales tax and they ship very quick. I'm seeing only the grey docking station listed on their site at the moment but it is out of stock. All you can do is keep checking periodically as they will show up but sell really fast. But at least if you see it's in stock and buy it, you'll get it. This is one of the most reputable sites on the net.
No idea, I just called them and told Mike ( I guess...ext. 2 from the email) I wanted to cancel...
Go thru phone menu, hit ext. 2
Hold
Abes...hello ages of Maine
Me....I liked to cancel my Asus order

I'm keeping my fingers crossed. No "oversold" email yet and it shows shipped to warehouse.
It's not like I'm out anything if it does cancel - I've not seen any others available or I would have ordered more for friends/backup anyway. If it gets canceled I get my money back and continue the search and wait. If I'd ordered the damn Grey to begin with this wouldn't be a problem, I would have both from BB, but I ordered champagne.

I never seen the "shipped to warehouse" status, I only got "In Process" when I ordered.
I'm not canceling mine either despite receiving the two emails that they oversold. In part because he still gave an end time of when they will get more in, while the other online retailer don't provide any info when they will get more in.

But I think did not read where it clearly states it cn take 1-3 days to process so that is on me.

perhaps us over here in Blighty are not so hard done by after all!! Whilst we are yet to get the TFP we will get it with the dock and our retailers do not normally tale 2-3 days to process an order as we can order of some sites up until 8-10pm and still get next day delivery.
Now I am seeing the positives of living on a "small island" as Bill Bryson would say.
ps by the time we get ours; ICS will allready be installed and we will be looking forward to jammy dodgers, jam roly poly or Javvarisi Avul Payasam
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
Tiger direct and b&h had champagne
Sent from my epic touch
5 big german retailers got deliveries yesterday and today, but all sold out within a few 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.
Tiger Direct has them in stock today:

Same here...I kept my Amazon Pre-Order (since 11/22) just in case. This Tiger Direct order said it would be here on the 26th. We'll see!
Keeping my 11/23 Best Buy order until I get a tracking #, but who knows, may actually have one on the way!

Smart move...mine at Tiger Direct now shows "In Process in Warehouse." Good sign. Once I get tracking, I'll cancel my Amazon order.
Got one. Thank you!
In the same state, I am waiting for a tracking number.
Winning! Got an order confirmation email... [fingers crossed]
Thanks! Just ordered.
woohoo! ordered. I'll believe it when I get a shipped email though.

Ordered one at 2:18 central as well, but I agree with this guy. I'll believe it when it gets shipped. This will be my 3rd concurrent order, with two of them getting cancelled as soon as one ships.
As far as I'm concerned, there's no way in hell I'm paying full price and/or tax when Asus ships the CG dock five weeks after the tablet. I'll wait another 14 days to get it from PCNation at the lower price without tax; consider it my inconvenience charge.
No tax for me in California. My pre-order with shopblt.com keeps getting pushed back. If I was sure that this current ETA of 2/7 was accurate, I wouldn't mind waiting, but after two delays, who know when it'll actually ship out.
So I'm willing to shell out the extra $25 for the sure thing.

This is my thinking too. The time I'll spend looking for one at a lower price when (IF) they arrive at other retailers is worth at least that much.
I even paid an extra $10 for 2-day shipping
Still, I want to see a tracking number...

Yup, I'm not counting my chickens yet. I still have my pre-order intact with ShopBLT. If I get a tracking number from Tiger Direct, I'll cancel that order.
Mine did something weird. Went from In-process to Carrier (with note Carrier has been contacted for pick-up and can't be cancelled) then back to In-process. I just got off the phone and was assured that it was not oversold. Like I said, holding on to the old Best Buy backorder until I get a tracking #. Not my first time at the rodeo
Ordered at about 3:10pm central just updated
Status: All Backordered

You could have been had a keyboard dock by now. Newegg gets them every now and then. I got lucky 3+ weeks ago. I recommend you do the same. There's no telling when you receive any from BB, if they haven't responded to you by now.

My order has a timestamp of 4:03:23 pm (TigerDirect is on EST so about 7 minutes before yours) and it still says "Order Status: In Process - Your order is in process at our warehouse."

Not for champagne. Yesterday was the very first time they went up anyplace and it was only for about 10 minutes on Newegg. All the other dock alerts have been for gray. No one has had or been shipping out the champagnes. That's why I'm still holding on to the old BB order. BB said that Asus said the production on the champagne had been delayed.
