Just buy any old microfiber cloth, you can buy multi-packs of 'em in almost all super markets these days.

I have seen the same type as the ASUS one in a few places, they're all much of a muchness really. I really don't like the feel of the ASUS one either, call me weird, but it makes my skin crawl a little.

The case made by asus is an almost exactly copy of the ipad 1 case... This is similar and is on buy.com http://mobile.buy.com/ibuy/ProductDetail.aspx?loc=108&sku=223077071&adid=18094&siteID=je6NUbpObpQ-3xsoAE_5o0Bb8aU4ozypEQ

Have you used one? If so I would think you would be a little less jealous. The magnets and bracket are flimsy so it bends and/or falls off pretty easily. Also in the completely open (bent back) position it doesnt quite fit the ipad right. Also a couple of people Ive known have had the magnetic off/on stop working, one would assume it was an alignment issue.
Its an interesting idea and I can understand they want to stick to the magnets for simplicity but its not the most durable solution.
I've had my prime for 2 days but whilst charging it last night I needed to have a quick look on the web and as I gently touched the outside outside of the prime I could feel a very faint electric charge. As anyone else experienced this ?

That is strange, I can honestly say that I have never had this.
well this one only slight screen bleed and 2 dead pixels. gps is not working at all, the dock keys are all ok so far, so I'm debating taking it back because of the electric problem but will the next one be better or worse lol ?

I had the same "problem" with my laptop, which had the same material with the Prime.
Saying that, my prime is also does the exact same thing.
Maybe both of our mains supplies are messed up and our electronics are not grounding, let me know if you get hit with 240V?

I have this on my Prime, but I have also had this on other electronic devices with aluminum faceplates or other components, such as certain stereo equipment. I wouldn't worry at all.
Yeah, they kinda made the charger ass backwards lol... I've gotta have my Asus logo upside down so I don't feel it. Tbh I think it felt kinda cool lol but something that's $500 shouldn't be doing that.

Mine does the same thing if you touch the metal body near the charger. Quite unsettling at first but you get used to it lol.

I got it as well. Just feels tiny vibrating, just like a rotating HDD.
I guess it's because the chassi is grounded and got a different potential than you.
Just checked and pcw near me have none in stock so I can't just exchange it. I would love to just be able to spend my £500 on a machine that does what it says without all the worry of getting a worst one than I already got.
Shocking with No GPS at all (I get 1 sat then drops off almost instantly), Discovered 2 more dead pixels so thats 4 in total, Only slight light bleed from 1 edge.
I love the performance and speed but am feeling like it's worth less than half a grand.

It does happen, most wont notice it as it just feels like a very very faint vibration.
When its plugged in, run your fingers over the metal kinda lightly, just brushing over it and youll feel a small vibration tingle... its normal apparently, just dont go in the bath with it
UK C2 - TFP from PCW
Here's something I noticed about the TFS, if you look at it, well first make sure you polish the screen clean real good, then look at your reflection in it.
Now don't you look like you've been working out for 3 weeks straight.
I am shocked to find this. The TFS has a nice built-in skinny mirror.

I see that you have a lot of free time on your hands huh? But thanks for that info
Maybe my eyelids are too heavy from all the excess weight but I cannot see this wizardry you speak of.
Besides, it is more likely that ASUS would advertise a feature that doesn't work than not advertise one that does.
Your glass is bent...
Stop rubbing so hard when you clean the screen.

This.
The first thing that came to mind. It seems like under the right conditions this tablet can bend. I bent mine back after opening it a few times.

I'm sorry, what's that?
Maybe some pictures would help me understand? I don't know of what would be plastic and keep you from docking, do you mean your glass screen is starting to flex out along the bottom?
Oh! Do you mean the charge port on the Prime or the dock? If that's the case, then likely not. I think under all circumstances a broken charge port is most likely going to be considered Customer Induced Damage, but you never know until you try.

Wow, maybe it's just the angle but it looks like the entire body has a bend to it. Have you tried bending it back yourself? And is the actual charging port ok, it's just all the metal around it that's deformed?
I have no idea if that'll be covered or not, but if you stand your ground and put it down as fact that you have not mistreated your tablet and that the keyboard and charger are the only things that have been in contact with that area, it's a possibility they'll cover it under warranty. That is crazy bent up, it would honestly be a chore for me to even try and make that happen.
Sorry I'm not of much more help, good luck.
Actually you are right the tablet its Bent a little thanks anyway i guess i will my keyboard

That's wild. Yeah, I don't know how they'd handle that. It would be hard to say the dock bent the entire tablet in that way. Totally sucks, how is the screen, no light-bleed or undue pressure you can notice? Looks like someone might have tried testing its durability a little too much lol

I don't know how the dock would cause that though. Who all lives with you, who else would have access to your tablet? I mean, that almost looks like someone put it on the edge of a table then leaned on it or something: I can not see the dock making that dent.
Do me a favor, check that your dock has all its screws in the hinge. At one point I had problems docking, and almost started to get rough/forceful with it until I decided to look down in the hinge. Below my Prime was one of its screws that had come out and was keeping the tablet from sitting right: you could have had a screw come out, and as you were trying to push/twist/whatever you were hitting the screw in different spots?
Does anyone have any opinions on this case? I have some extra money and want to buy it. I do have a Zagg screen protector on my tab already and I'm worried it might cause problems because the Gumdrop comes with a screen saver.

Buy it...it's awesome. You can remove the case's screen saver (WITHOUT CUTTING--it's a pop in framed screen protector) and use your own. Just fyi, it totally changes the feel of the tab. It goes from sexy sleek technology, to chunky heavy duty. It will feel like you could throw the transformer out the window of a moving vehicle and it would survive!

That word makes me a tad uncomfortable, I'm actually really interested in the case, but if I'm gonna spend $50 on a case, it better take a shotgun slug and still boot up! (Ok, maybe I'm exaggerating, but how's the actual defence rating on it?)
