Just wanted to post this for anyone interested in whats going on with their Dongle or need to place a hold on it before it gets to them. On the VIP site your status has to have changed to "Shipped". Don't blame me if you check while "submitted" and get nothing although some have reported success! This is also only for North American shipments.. overseas do not ship FedEx
Go to Fedex.com and Track by Reference Number.(Here) Copy this:
TF201DONGLE - "INSERT MY SERIAL NUMBER" - GRAY
Replace the quotes and insert number with your Serial # and make sure no spaces are between the dashes. It should pull your package up and also provide you with the actual tracking number. You may need to adjust the country where its going if you are international as well as date shipped if it might have gone out over 15 days ago.
Champagne users should also be able to track if you change GRAY to GOLD.(thanks monkeydog) Hope this helps those who are still waiting- thanks to mikeypopps who originally posted this

Not working for me.
I tried both of my serial numbers. One has been received and the other has not. Neither give any information other than "No information for the following shipments has been received by our system yet."
Others in the Got my Dongle and Product Updates thread are reporting success, so either you're doing it wrong, or the label hasn't been printed yet. Make sure your serial is correct and your tracking by Reference #, Not tracking #
Thanks NEO .. worked for me.. April 27th expected delivery..

Thanks! Works! I already received one of the two GPS dongles I applied for. Did exactly as instructed and I was able to see the shipping information of the one I already received. Now I'm just waiting for my Champagne color dongle to be shipped. I am moving by the end of the month so the address I submitted will no longer be current. I'll use this method again when it finally ships to re-route it.
Thanks, worked for me estimated date 27th
If yours is Champagne replace the "GRAY" with "GOLD". Worked for me.

Same here. I am thinking of starting a thread for us in this situation late next week if nothing happens since no one at Asus has any idea whats going on all they do is read scripts say they'll call you back and nothing. FedEx told me I have to contact the shipper which is them. Technical email same thing 4 days to get a script saying call the # - run-around!!
Thanks
Anticipated ship date April 18th
Anticipated delivery date April 25th
Last time I checked that is today but the only thing in the "time line" graph is initiated so mine is sitting somewhere other than with me or in a FedEx facility/truck.
Oh well, what do you expect when you're getting something for FREE!

Not to get technical but we paid $500 for the GPS to work in our actual unit. At least its in the specifications on my C1. I dont use it all the time myself and don't really care about performance but when GPS test sits at 0 thats plain defective imo. I just want the fix thats been offered instead of reading everyone getting theirs yet ours supposedly shipped the 18th and theyre sitting somewhere and noone seems to know a thing. We aren't the only ones so hopefully by the end of the week or next week they start moving otherwise I think its going to be a pain in the you know what trying to get any information about whats going on internally there at Asus.
I registered months before this was even announced on the VIP site and I still have yet to even recieve an email talking about this offer at all. Talk about how VIP Asus treats us man!
Thanks OP. This worked for me. Unfortunately all FedEx has is the shipping information was sent. I had the shipping confirmation from Asus on the 18th. They can't be out of these things can they?
Possibly or they are waiting to send another batch out at the same time. On another board a guy posted his tracking info and the first label time was exactly the same 11:18AM and his shipped fine got it today, was supposed to recieve mine today its been sitting on "Initiated".. just don't know hopefully they update I signed up for email notification when it starts moving because I need mine held for pickup
Worked for me. Cool. Unfortunately it just says "Shipment information sent to FedEx" as of Apr 18.
guess i must remain patient.
welcome to the club.. post back when it starts moving..
I have... quite a few coming, aprox 40 (institution, cheaper than ipads and android ftw) roughly 30 say they are shipping on the vip site, so far none of the ones i checked say they are in the fedex system yet.... oddly there are roughly 10 that are still recieved (not shipped), does this mean they ran out and are waiting on a new batch? who knows.... asus seems to be boggling this quite badly, but as others have said im getting it for free, why complain?
Just to clarify, there is no space between the -s and there are no " marks correct?
*edit* OH! one just popped up, shows it was picked up this afternoon should be in my hands friday, just in time for the weekend to test it out! woot!

They are coming from California ... you and I are on the East Coast. Its going to take about a week or more to get here. Slowest possible shipping method through Fedex. Mine shipped the 23rd. Wont get here till the 30th.

Thats the difference between yours and ours at least you have a delivery date! His sounds like mine if you look at the pic in the OP there has been no change after the label has been received for a week now and is waiting for pickup. Which means the package is still at Asus. Mine was originally scheduled for 4/25 and now theres no date.. all FedEx tells us is contact the shipper.. and Asus knows nothing.. all we can do is wait and keep checking!

Easiest thing would be to call their customer service. However I had good luck with the TF101 getting one when Newegg was selling them at launch and I have faith in them now. I keep checking my Pre-Order and my email as well as the sight for any updates. I've seen them update the Asus tablet page and remove the other tablets and put them back. Unless they wait until the last minute to update the page we may luck out and get it early. Otherwise they can always fallback on the fact that it says ETA and not actual release date.
For what it's worth, since I am a Campus Rep for ASUS, I can tell you all that the company has pretty strong ties with Newegg as that's who we use for our official campus store. If any company gets them on release date my bet would be with Newegg.
Just my two cents

Not wanting to read into it but is 12/8 the actual release date? Since thats the date most retailers had initally before they changed it to the following week or two afterwards. If so then I definitely expect Newegg to have it on the date listed especially since every other retailer has been covering themselves and changed their dates while Newegg hasn't.

Who was the source in Taiwan. Do we have someone on record as saying that? I know all of the media outlets were stating those dates on the day of the conference but I was never sure of an actual source.
What are they telling you as campus sales rep. When will you have one (or more) in hand?

I was skeptical for the same reason because no source was ever mentioned, no picture of any date was shown, nor was any video of the conference recorded.
My job is not as a sales rep... Just a Campus Rep. I'm supposed to promote the awareness and benefits of the products on campus by holding demo events, Q&A's, and reviewing new products. I'm going to contact my boss to see if I can get some more details.

Thanks that would be great. Sorry that I erroneously added 'sales' into your title. Not sure why I made you a salesman. I think it would help your cause on campus to be able to definitively state when the product is available. Here's to hoping your boss has an answer!

It would really make my weekend if they shipped it out on the 8th!! Anyone know if it is possible to change shipping address on a newegg order? Their customer rep said I couldn't change since the order was "on hold". Will be hard for me to time it right so I can change the shipping address right after they receive it, but before they ship it out...
I forgot to put my office address in there and don't want them to leave it outside my house, or worse yet - take it back to the UPS hub on the day of delivery.

My Best Buy pre-order says the 18th, but I was told I'd have it on the 13th. Maybe that date is for the in store date? Hoping so!
I love Newegg, but I have had some bad experiences with their pre-order stuff. Normally the release date is wrong, it comes later than the real release date, and once I got the incorrect product. I would hope they have gotten better, but when I made my preorder I stuck to Best Buy that had a physical presence so I could return or exchange without a hassle (hopefully) if there is a problem.
However, the official release date is the 19th for the US. There have been a lot of rumors and Asus officials have no been in sync with the information, but this finally seems official.
http://www.ubergizmo.com/2011/11/as...ts-official-release-date-for-8th-of-december/
Nevermind the 8th in the title, this article was updated. So the Best Buy date of the 18th is probably correct because that is when they will ship it. I just hope they have enough stock.

First time doing a pre-order with Newegg personally but I've bought lots of items from them in the past and have always been really good service. Of course service will always differ from one experience to the next. The way I see it is if they do get them on the 8th and ship them then thats a plus. If they get them on the 8th and ship the following week it falls in line with that 12th date that was thrown around with the 18th. And if it's not until the 18th then well it's the same as everyone else. All that matters at this point is when we all recieve the device. Unfortunately the site you linked to doesn't have anymore concrete information than any of the other sites. They reference the launch trailer we all saw as having the date and I watched it again to make sure I didn't miss something and there is no date in that trailer. So again we are all just playing the wait game until these merchants recieve and ship out our devices.

when i ordered the OG transformer from them it was an open box 16gb on their website for $300, i ended up getting a 32gb open box in the mail though, so sometimes those little snafus are a good thing!

Sent from my Thunderbolt using Tapatalk
yeah i called about a week ago and they told me 18th to 23rd and i asked they clarify what that meant. As in day shipped or day received and the lady said 18th would be earliest day i would have it in my hands and 23rd being the latest. This was at best buy but i should also note it sounded to me like she just read off the computer a generic product shipment statement. No real knowledge when it came to the prime. This was at best buy. For anyone wondering i ordered the 27th champ. 32gb no dock. I wanna know why u think the 13th too before i get my hopes up...
**edit- I figured i should also note for people wondering this was for standard free shipping. i was talking to her about upgrading shipping and once she told me 18th to 23rd i decided to leave it alone.
Just browsing Asus's product site, I noticed that the "preorder" list had been removed (unless I'm looking at the wrong page: http://eee.asus.com/en/eeepad/transformer-prime/features). I went to the "where to buy" tab and looked through some of the sites listed - a couple of places that weren't on the initial preorder list have them up now - J&R as we all know, but also allasus.com and PC Mall. I went ahead and called PC Mall to check on delivery time and the rep told me Dec. 12th. Now, of course, I doubt that is accurate, but it's news at least.
On your orders page, did it say that it will arrive after the 25th, or did it say something else before you got the notice?
Everyones said " Asus will not ship to you because you are a preorder sucker...jokes on you!"
Mine said it would be delivered after the 25th ever since I preordered. But I just got the email saying it would be delivered the 19th.

sorry..dont mean to start up any firestorms..but if you've already received it..you wont mind posting the tracking number so we can verify it?
Too many people looking for attention i'm finding on these boards of late...and everyone so far who's said "i've received it" actually..well..havent.
so..for anyone else who's received it and is brave enough...post your tracking number to back up the claim. (I know what the responses are going to be from those people.."whether or not you believe me..i got it..so stfu" )
just sayin
I received mine at my doorstep. 100 percent truth. Called my apartment complex to pick it up and put it in the apartment because I'm not there right now.
I don't like posting anything remotely personally, so no tracking number. But I promise, this is no joke.
Maybe someone else will post pics/ tracking number.

Now you're just being paranoid. Of course it needs to be signed for. That is why I had it sent to my girlfriend who signed for it. You do know you can choose to send orders on Amazon to other people?
As for the tracking info being anonymous - that it just plain wrong. That includes the name of the person signing for the package.

Thanks! Ordered mine. The Chat rep said I should receive it on January 5. No way to expedite shipping. See below:
Richard: Please know that since the item is delivered from the different warehouse locate, the order status is " 3 Days Delivery Pending ". However the order will be delivered on Thursday, January 5, 2012 08:30 AM - 05:00 PM
My take on this is that "different warehouse locale" means that it's coming directly from ASUS, which is why he couldn't expedite the shipping.
Well while I was chatting they went out of stock. I was trying to see if I could pay extra for quicker shipping. I had one in my cart and everything. FML lol

Don't get your hopes up on the OD order. I ordered back on the 12/21 and was told I'd get it on the 27th. Not happening. I just finished chatting with a rep and didn't get much more:
Chat Transcript
Please wait while we find an agent to assist you...
You have been connected to Steve.
Steve: Hi Don
Steve: Good morning
Steve: I am glad to assist you with your concern.
Me: Good morning
Steve: We apologize for the inconvenience.
Steve: May I have the order number
Me: xxxx
Steve: Thanks, let me check on the order
Steve: I am sorry the item is out of stock as of now and we do not have the restocking date updated with us
Steve: I would request you to get back to us with 2-3 business days as our warehouse team is working hard on its availability
Me: I chatted with a CSR just prior to ordering and she told me that it would definitely ship out and I'd receive it on the 27th. She was very confident about it so I went ahead and ordered it.
Me: Clearly she was mistaken. What can be done about this?
Steve: We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused
Steve: Please get back to us with 2-3 business days as our warehouse team is working hard on its availability
Me: Can I have some sort of credit applied due to the misinformation I was given?
Me: So far you're the 3rd rep I've chatted with and each has asked me to check back in 2-3 days. I'm losing confidence in that answer, unfortunaly.
Steve: Please know that due to low stock the item has to be shipped from a different location and so it is taking time to get to the ware house near to your location and it should be in stock within 2-3 business days
Me: I understand, but that is NOT what I was told when I ordered it. I was told that it WAS in stock and that it would ship in time for me to receive on the 27th. When I placed the order I again chatted with a rep who told me to wait 2-3 days for the status to be updated. Now you're telling me that it's NOT in stock but that I should still wait 2-3 days for more information. I know it's not your fault, but I need a better result then "check back in 2-3 days"--simply because apparently I have not been given accurate information from the very beginning.
Steve: I will escalate the issue to the higher authority and they will get back to you within 4 business hours with the exact delivery details
Steve: May I have your contact phone number
Me: sure thing. It's xxxxx
Steve: Thanks, please give me a moment while I escalate the issue
Me: Thanks, Steve
Steve: Thank you so much for your patience.
Steve: I have escalated the issue
Steve: Is there anything else that I can assist you with?
Me: Thank you, Steve.
Me: That's it. I appreciate your help with this.

I Hear that I have several preordered too. Guess we could always sell extra on ebay to make up for cost if unable to cancle an order.

Do you have a sheet with all your pre-order info in one place to start mass cancelling if necessary, too!!?? As soon as I have a tracking number from somebody...

Under Product Details it says "TF201-B1-GR", the "GR" at the end means it is gray.
Out of stock now, however.

32GB Champagne only at the moment.
Sorry, just saw notice. Please delete.
The website says it is available, but the sales person i just spoke to claims it is still back ordered.
the link she provided says this also:

That link says available for me. I'm talking about the Champagne. The rest show backordered.
--EDIT:
I called them and they confirmed them in stock.
Be careful, read the other thread on Abes.
They screwed a lot of people over already
Call to confirm stock before ordering.
I did. I plan on making a BIG deal of the issue if it doesn't arrive by next week because I cancelled an Amazon order from the 26th for it. But the salesman told me they we in the system and NOT a website error. They also told me that the remaining backorders had been pulled from the inventory.
EDIT: I looked on the other thread, and noticed that most people hadn't been charged. My Google Checkout account has been charged as of this afternoon so I hope that's good news.

My google checkout was also processed but I saw this thread and when I called them (and also did a Web/live chat) they said they had none in stock and hopefully will be getting more next week.
I sent her the link on this site (that even when speaking to her showed available) but she showed me a link,on the site that conflicted with mine.
Either way, if I hear nothing tomorrow morning I will call them to cancel.

Wow....
They did it again?!
I will not be giving them my business ever. Just wait guys, best buy is getting them in stock every few days or so...newegg also.
Well, if they don't ship something before Wednesday, I'll block the payment on my Visa and play up the false-advertising card with them.
Plus, the salesman told me that my order was IN STOCK sitting in their warehouse. Anything less and I cancel.

Well it seems there is a disconnect within their ERP/Inventory system. After being told by 2 customer care agents that there were absolutely no tablets in stock, my card was charged and I am told now (when I gave my Abe's order number) that it will be delivered tomorrow morning.
Now, if after all this they do not send me my shipping number (this afternoon) as promised or deliver tomorrow - I WILL BE VERY PISSED (yes, this is me dramatically using all caps!)
I'll call and push the issue then. I noticed that they are still listed as in stock too. If there was an inventory system issue, dont you think that they would have fixed it?
They just told me that they recieved the shipment this morning, and my order will ship out no later than tommorrow! (Standard shipping speed)

Did you get it yet?
Are you getting the issue with "unknown serial number" described in this forum?
I will get mine on Thursday.

All i can say is WOW!
I love this device and i have not had one problem.
As most people on this thread know i have been lurking about trying to make up my mind about getting this device.
I really want to tell people on the fence that the tfp is great (i have not tested GPS while driving,that is what my car or phone is for).
I just installed ICS and it is so smooth/fast and much cleaner than HC.
I will admit that the number of issues raised on this forum is indicative of serious (initial) QA/QC issues at Asus. I hope my experience means they have addressed this.

UPS says I should have it Monday.
I've had my Prime for a few weeks and have been searching all over for the anyone that has received there TF201-DOCK-CG in CHAMPAGNE Gold.
I have seen post stating they have gotten there Gray docks but not been able to find the CHAMPAGNE.
If you either have received this or if this is still on back order status please provide this information.
thanks in advance
Haven't received it yet but I'm expecting it soon. I pre ordered one from Abes of Maine, and another from ShopBLT. Both are expecting to get a shipment of them on the 27th of this month, which is the best I've heard from ANY place so far. Whichever can send it to me first, I'll cancel the other's order.
Thanks for this input this is the same info I have found.
The only one I have seen online that is even offering this on a pre-order is ShopBLT
http://www.shopblt.com/cgi-bin/shop...110020050010_BLL5657P.shtml&order_id=!ORDERID!
When I spoke to the today they did state that this was the third time that they have had a push from the Manufacturer and this was not a firm data by any means. They also stated that while they have 371 coming in the back order was in the 400 range, but they expected 3% would cancel there order.
I guess I will wait and see
There are so many threads on this topic..and thanks for the misleading title.
I ordered one from shopblt.com back on Dec 23rd with a ship date of January 5th. They wrote a very creepy email stationg the name and address didn't match to the card and the email verification could have been spoofed (I used my Gmail add) since it was a public domain. Then they asked me for a photocopy of my drivers license or a copy of my electric or gas bill to verify the address and name. They also stated this shouldn't be of concern because the information I gave them for the order was equivalent to personal info (essentially saying I might as well give the my social security as well ). I immediately cancelled my order as the ridiculousness of it was over my head. Might just have been me but beware! Seemed too creepy

Please provide the other threads as I have searched and only found ones relating to the gray docks but none on this one directly, and I will ask for this to be removed.
The point is I have yet to see any post stating that this has been received
Note I altered the title in best interest of everyone

Gary, if you're reading this thread can you shed some light on the absent champagne dock issue?
I have it (well, had, send it back because of backlight bleeding). At least it is for sale in Holland (bundled with the 32GB Prime).
I pre ordered from Amazon on Nov 22 together with the prime. I have had the prime for weeks now but still haven't gotten the keyboard dock. I received an email from Amazon on Jan 12th saying the dock will be delayed and if I still want the order. I said yes, and nothing since then.

Ditto... same situation here.
Hopefully the Champagne docks will at least be available for order for 10 minute windows next week.
Champagne Docks delayed
Well, Champagne docks have now been pushed into February. My PCNation order had been 2-5 days since last week and now is 1-2 weeks. Checking ShopBLT site shows they won't be in until Feb. 7.
I've had this on order since mid December. What the hell is going on?

I suspect they haven't shipped any to the US. I pre-ordered the CG dock at the same time I ordered our Primes on Nov 22.
Yea, I've got a Christmas gift I won't have til mid February :rollseyes:

I emailed Abes of Maine after I got a weird email from them that made it look like I had ordered it only yesterday rather than weeks ago. They said it was nothing to worry about, just that it was to say they received a bunch of them and were shipping them out today and tomorrow. They also said to expect it to be delivered before the weekend!!
So, if any of you ordered from Abe's, you might want to email them and ask if anything new is happening.

Same!!!! so frustrating.
Ordered: Newegg CG Dock In Stock
CG dock still in stock at Newegg. Just ordered with overnight shipping. Charged and processing. Now... To Sell this gray dock lol
My CG Dock order with Tigerdirect (placed Nov 23) changed from "Backordered" to "In Process". They were among the first to deliver the CG tablet, so I assume this means they also received an allotment of CG docks and are starting to fulfill orders.
