It would be possible but then you have the same issue people had with the GPS dongle. They would think it's ugly. Also it probably wouldn't be very cheap.
As for jelly bean I have no idea.

If you have a Prime with bad WiFi, either exchange it at the store you bought it from or RMA it with Asus. Asus has been pretty good about exchanging Prime's that experience bad WiFi.
There is no point to making a "work-around" product to deal with an issue that only a certain segment of Prime users are experiencing. It is better to just get a Prime that works as it should.

I want to buy the prime but I heard that have a wifi problem and GPS i dont know what to do .
I need your help.
Buy the prime or wait for transformer 3(or other new tablets?)
What to do?
now I have transformer TF101
You should work on your English skills or offer it in multiple languages.
Choose what you want: Transformer 16GB, Transformer 32GB, Transformer Prime 32GB, or Transformer Prime 64GB. Find a store that carries it, online or locally, buy it. There are separate docks for the Transformer and Transformer Prime and you will need the correct dock; the GB's don't matter to the dock.

i am sorry i wrote this from my cell-phone very fast
i want transformer prime 32G but worth it to buy it without the keyboard and sell my first transfomer with keyboard
You should wait bro
think for your self.. why let others tell you want you want and don't want.. won't go far in life if you let everyone tell you what to do..
Now go to work..
The Prime is nice but GPS doesn't work while moving fast. If you like a sturdy metal body then get the TF201. If you want GPS, don't care about metal body and want the higher display then wait and get the TF700 (or whatever it is).
Very easy.
i neeed for home dont for fast moving

Don't by ASUS. Get Samsung GT 10.1 and you will be happy. or better yet get Apple Ipad2 and you will be amazed. ASUS TP has too many issues.
As in, real ones. full sized. maybe I missed it but... that's a pretty serious hindrance, in the end. functional connectivity is what's really setting Android apart from the iPad. I honestly think it's a major reason why Android tablets aren't really taking off. all the manufacturers are trying to mimic the iPad, including its limitations. they don't seem to realize they aren't supposed to be targeting people who want iPads; they're supposed to be targeting people who dont want them.
It's also a pretty serious problem given Android's new official ability to connect to game controllers thrrough USB. I know there's ana adapter for some tablet's, but lets face it, those are going no where. people dont like getting another extra adapter just to get basic things like that to work. this is after already using the cable to connect, and after getting the controller. that's 3 things to have just for people to play games well.
good luck with that sales pitch, OEMs.
wow. this is disappointing.
There are two which have been the most popular next to the kindle (which is a piece). the toshiba thrive has usb ports directly on the tablet, the transformer has them on the dock. Both also have a hdmi plug and micro SD, at least I think the new thrive does, I know the original did.
Both of those were pre CES though. Big CES announcement was the 250$ 7" quad core memo370t by asus. No USB on that though I'm pretty sure, most likely a micro SD.

I'm looking to purchase a tablet. I want to run emulators, read books, listen to music. It also needs to be able to support sixaxis or usb api host. What would you recommend to purchase?
Acer Iconia A100
For a good choice is Asus Transforme Prime, but it is a shame that the internal gps doesn't work without the new attachment.
The transformer prime is your best bey

I have the original transformer TF101, it can do all of that easily. emulates most n64/other games well, sixaxis and wiimote both work flawlessly. HDMI output to play/watch stuff on TV.
just in case you wanted a cheaper option, i heard it's cheap now. i would still recommend the prime if you don't mind paying.

Asus Transforme Prime
I bought my TFP with one major goal in mind, to be able to watch NetFlix/DLNA Videos with a pair of BT headphones on. Lucky me, I'm having the wonderful WiFi/BT fallout issues.
I don't want to send it in for RMA and wait weeks/months to get another one back which may do the same thing.
So, my question is, are there any custom ROMs which do NOT experience the WiFi/BT fallout issues? I'm no noob, I have no issue unlocking and installing a custom ROM, but ONLY if it will fix this issue (otherwise I may have to go the RMA route).
I don't really buy that it's a hardware issue. There are dozens of other tablets with combo WiFi/BT chips that can handle the two streams simultaneously just fine; my previous GTab 8.9 being a perfect example.
It appears I my have jumped the gun a little. I believe I did confirm my suspicions that my fallout issue is in fact ROM based and not hardware based. I un-paired my bluetooth headphones and rebooted and now all wireless (WiFi, BT & GPS) are all working fine. I guess the question still remains though, is anyone aware of a ROM which won't suffer from this hiccup if the hardware is good?

Hello,
I've had my prime for awhile now and I"m thinking of getting the keyboard dock for it. On Amazon they are selling both the original and the tf700 one and on the tf201 they link to the tf700 saying it's the newer version. The new one claims it's compatible - which one should i get? Are there any major fit issues using a prime in the new dock? I've seen questions/discussions about the reverse (Infinity in a tf201 dock) but couldn't find anything on this.
Thanks,
Brandon

I recently bought the kybd dock for the TF700 the box stated that it would work with both, and it does. It works perfectly with my TF201. So the answer is yes it will work with your TF201.
Dock for tf700 has smaller battery - 19.5Wh vs 22Wh

I have been having a hell of a time tracking down a tf201 dock. I finally found one on an online retailer, but the damn thing doesn't work. I have to send it back and they may not have anymore stock.
Anyway, I am very interested in information about the tf700 dock. I've read that it is either slightly tighter or slightly looser than the tf201 dock (can't remember which). Do you have any comments about this?
Funny this thread just pop'd up I was thinking of the same question. I was going to wait till black friday to hunt one down at a cheaper price but just yesterday tried to buy one of the ASUS Transformer Infinity TF500 / TF700 Mobile Dock - Amethyst Gray. amazon had it for $128.00 but none were in stock and when I made the purchase at that price they cancelled my order stating "they were unaware when they would have more in stock" ???
So I went to Newegg purchased the ASUS TF500-DOCK-GR Docking Station (Compatible w/ TF700T) - Gray, which shipped today but now there out of stock. I guess I snagged the last one. Wondering why Newegg model number is TF500-DOCK-GR? I guess I'll let you know which version it is when I receive it and how well it fits. I'm hoping its the newer version.
Have you received the dock yet? I was trying to find some informations about it but there is nothing on Asus web about tf500t...

See this thread if you are looking for an original TF201 dock. Office Depot still has them and they are $99. I just bought one.
