Only time will tell. Not a satisfying answer, but there's no definitive answer. I mean, jelly bean hasn't even been officially announced yet, right? ASUS has a better track record than most, so within three months of the source release may be a good guess. I would definitely put my money on a custom ROM getting jelly bean before an official OTA update, though.

we're supposed to be the first to get it when its announced since asus said that their products would be the first to get it because they have a good relation with google.
We should know fairly soon though right

Hi friends
The time has come for the revolution. In connection with the way the Asus treats its customers I think we should start a revolution and a massive public campaign on the back cover replacement programme or any other solution to the problem of weak WiFi and/or GPS in Transformer Prime. The Internet is the power they are afraid of.
Asus' President would be very interested in the situation. He would like to know the way his company treats its customers.
We have to let him know... We have to make a change

From slash gear, it appears that the only changes are
-1080p
-2mp camera instead of 1.3
-changed back plate
I already got really good, constant wifi connection
My BT works fine with my Game pad and my Galaxy Note
I'm own phone, there's no need for a GPS
1080p = More battery drain for something that only Prime users will notice the diff.

Did you not check before posting this all over the forum? Where did you get the idea it was a Qualcomm chip?
In order for this to have any change of success, we should work out possible solutions first.
Noone is helped with just bashing their facebook walls.
Let's collect some opinions and options for ASUS.

Asus TF Prime announced
Ppl preorder
huge QC issues
Preorders canceled and delayed
device arrives
Problems didnt go away
Asus Solution?
Make new device, sell 100$ more expensive, leave ppl who bought TF prime hanging like a nutsack
Problem?
Here is a better link.
http://www.engadget.com/photos/asus-eee-pad-transformer-prime-tf700t-hands-on-0/#4728347
This is not a 7 inch version this is a 10.1. If you look at the back it is the exact one we need to make the prime work. So my opinion is they knew that aluminum was flawed but decided to leave it on. Then release this to fix it. While everyone wasted their hard earned money so they could be the first tegra 3 on the market.
They should upgrade us for free to the new one. Also it is still puzzling why the tf101 is going for the same price as before the prime came out.

No i mean new 10 incher shown at CES, beta tested by us using TF201. That's not the way they should do their business. I love my TF201 and I'm not going to sell it. But I do not like to be treated like a retard.

Then what company, in your eyes, does a better job listening to its customers? They listened about the bootloaders, are dropping ICS before everyone even has the tablet and continually innovating (the new TF700).
I'm looking forward to these Negative Nancys leaving the Asus community.

So I just returned my prime to best buy because of some minor problems. If they had one to exchange I probably wouldn't be making this post. But now that they aren't really in stock anywhere I may just wait for the iPad 3. Now I'm really not trying to troll or anything but do you guys think I should wait? Or just tell me I'm being stupid and should come to my senses.
After using an Android tablet and then going back to an iPad 2, I hated how limited it felt in comparison.

There should be quite a few 1080p tabs to choose from in the coming months.
Ive got a Prime also and far from impressed main issue for me is poor wifi which is useless for my intended use of travelling.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk
how about you act like an adult and make a decision?
i'm getting really tired of this "living by comittee" lifestyle that people are starting to adopt.
purchasing something as frivalous as a tablet comes down to a very unique (to the purchaser/user) set of critera as to what they should buy and what they consider value for their dollar.
if there were still any hidden mysteries as to what this particular tablet brings (in both the good and bad) to the table, i would be more compassionate towards the question of the OP, but the pros and cons of this tablet have been discussed ad nauseam on this forum, if one cannot make up their mind at this point on their own by reading, then no one can help them.

Which? Tell me. It will really take some time before they are actually available in the stores. And if you want some quality tablet you would not want to go with Acer. Lenovo is overpriced. Samsung, Asus, Apple are the one's who make the best tablets in my eyes.
And no, I don't had any of those WiFi/GPS/BT issue's with my Prime so I also put Asus there because with my tablet it was very solid build, had a good feel etc. etc. Same for the TF101.
I had to return mine to best buy because it was stuck in the ICS rebooting loop. I just ordered another one today from office dept. If ICS and wifi work and there are no screen issues I'm keeping it.

Absolutely correct. There is definitely a reason business, major medical institutions, educational institutions and the U.S. military have contracts in place with Apple.

Somehow I doubt a lot would regret waiting the few months for one that does get addressed properly compared to the one that doesn't due to its design.

You'd also need special drivers for it to support wifi i guess.
I actually like the design, thought it would get alot worse and i think i'll take one But they could have made another port on the back side somehow, so you could plug in the charging cable while the dongle is attached.

P.S. is Asus just giving us TFP owners this for nothing? Is there a mailing list out that we have to sign up to get it?

More information will be posted in the "Unofficial ASUS" sticky tomorrow (4/16), and a sign-up form will be available then. It's going to be free, and available to every Prime owner (at least in the US, but probably worldwide).
Lots of threads on the topic, including that main one.
Looks... beefy? Passthrough charging is almost necessary. Thats my biggest hope atm. Looks like it will fit in the mounts that are out there, too.
