I know right, I had an order in with Abes of Maine, but they imagined their inventory, so they couldn't fulfill their orders, so I pulled that. Thank God I had that alert set up for multiple email addresses and happened to have my email account on screen when it came in.

Haha, same here! Got the oversold email from Abe this morning and was p*ssed. Then a few hours later, was lucky enough to be in my phone when the NewEgg auto notify email came in. Ran over to my laptop and placed the order!

Yep i had auto reply set up at newegg and nowinstock. I got the newegg notification and ordered it in about 45 seconds. I was well beyond confirming my order by the time nowinstock emailed me. Just a thought for those who really want one.
My order has been successfully charged. Hopefully they only do that when they confirm stock.
I also had to cancel an abe order.

I just received my shipping confirmation and tracking number from neweggs 3 minute opening yesterday. I canceled mine as well from Abe's of Maine.
Received a tracking number this morning as well. I was just starting to worry. Should be here tomorrow I hope.

I ordered mine as soon as I received an text/email from nowinstock.net. My email records show that they were in stock at 5:14pm EST and I finsihed placing mine at 5:19pm EST. It took me 4 minutes to login and pay by paypal. I wasn't getting screwed on this one.
Keyboard has shipped and i've recieved a UPS tracking number. Can't pull it up yet though, so still waiting on that.

Hey everyone!
I just ordered the Transformer Prime tablet bundle from Gamestop because it said it was available and would ship in 24 hrs. What are the odds I'm actually going to get this??
I originally preordered a champagne one from bestbuy. tried to extend the backorder, but bestbuy cancelled it anyway
I really want this tablet and if this works I'll make sure to report back as it would be the only place in the US that this thing is shipping from.
They've been in stock and shipping from Amazon for the last 2 days

The odds of 24 hour Sent shipping costs depends on your location

Wish I'd known that... (Its way overpriced though) I was just skeptical that's why I asked because if you want to just buy the tablet without the bundle, they are sold out.

Can you still cancel the order?
Just got a call from them to verify the order. Idk if I can cancel the order. I wouldn't know where to look.

I ordered mine from gamestop last night but my friend ordered it a few days ago and already revived his.
I got mine from Gamestop. But make sure you back up those games they put on there. A soon a you upgrade to ICS, you will need to wipe everything, and will lose them! They told me everything would stay, but I couldn't connect to my home wifi until I wiped. I phoned Gamestop and they won't replace the games.
The extra price is for the game controller they send with it. Otherwise it is just $499.

I got all my stuff from gamestop an when i ugraded I didnt have to do a wipe. And i still have all my games. I dont understand why you guys are needing to wipe. I have not had problem one with mine.

I wish I did the backup first. I phoned Gamestop about getting the apps back, they were "unable" to help me. If you guys find a way to get them, please let me know!
I had already registered my Tf201 on Asus' website before the GPS dongle solution was announced. When I log into my ASUS VIP account, I don't see anything pertaining to ordering one of the GPS dongles.
Anyone experiencing the same thing or have a solution?

I registered yesterday and didn't see anything pertaining to a GPS dongle.
The thread about the Asus rep sending an email to an XDA member about the dongles has also disappeared.
I guess because it isn't official yet, they have gotten rid of everything pertaining to it.
Some XDA members have gotten phone calls from LIVE Asus reps about the dongle.
I am bootloader unlocked and wonder if they are going to send them out to people that have unlocked.
We are in the same boat. I registered in February. I believe that Asus will have some registration program for us after April 16th. Or, they will use the information that we entered when we registered. However, the latter info could be dated and changed since the registration was entered.
Anyway, they will likely figure it out.
I wouldn't worry that you won't get it. I would imagine when official and live they will have a link for you to get to it.
They have removed it until the official announcement.

How in the world would they know whether any of us have unlocked our bootloader bar telling them ourselves?
I've read that after the 16th of this month it will become official and all the rest of us will be able to order the dongle. The people who are getting called right now are people who were able to receive the message regarding the dongle at VIP before they took it down.
Just be patient. We'll get it.

The site seems to be working fine for me. I didn't go through the whole registering product thing obviously but the VIP site is working fine without any server errors. Keep trying. I've used the VIP registering site several times (I have like 7 Asus products) and have never had a problem registering anything.

I had this issue but it had in fact taken my registration OK, looked like it was just the redirect page that had broken.
Try logging in using the email/pwd you had set up and also checking your email for any confirmation links.

Really? Unlocking voids your warranty. They have to know who has done it. Doesn't the tool transit that information?
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk 2
The only way they would know is if we told them. Period. Obviously, we can't send it in to them for warranty repair because they would know it was unlocked when they go it and they would deny our warranty claim. But, there is no network message sent to them if we unlock it.
I'm hoping at some point we will get NVflash because then we could relock and they would be none the wiser. That's how it is for my Nexus. I can unlock and relock at my hearts content.

Umm... I'm pretty sure that unlocking your device sends them your serial number, so they probably know if you've unlocked your device when you register it.
But they'll still send a GPS dongle to people with unlocked devices, I think.

IIRC, the legalese said that the dongle wont modify or amend your current warranty.
Did any of you guys try contracting Asus through the technical inquiry on the site? People are saying their getting called from Asus and not only did I do that but tried contacting Gary and no response from either ( they have my email & #) .. I would think since we took the time to register before any incentive was offered the least they could do is return an email.. let alone a phone call
dongle?
There is no official word yet on that.* Sorry, I cannot comment on any speculation right now but if there is any official news regarding that it will be announced by us.
The above is an email I received this morning.

To allow the program to unlock it contacts ASUS servers to verify your serial number and void your warranty, then sends back the unlock information. This is also why people with no serial number issue had not been able to unlock

Hello,
I got my prime through craigslist a couple months ago and the microsd card reader on the tablet wasnt working. I thought i could live without it but i dont like using the dock all the time just for the microsd slot. I have rooted and unlocked my prime and was wondering if i relocked it and did a warranty exhange if asus would take it back??

there isn't a way to unlock it unfortunately. like the previous post said, try it! call them and see what happens
I'm curious too. Please post back it results.
I have been wary of unlocking because i don't want a hardware to defect to not be covered. If i brick my tablet or software crashes i can deal with it since it was my fault, but it would suck if a faulty hardware was cause for them to deny.

Is there anyone who successfully return and refund the Asus Transformer Prime in Australia under manufacturer warranty? Please share if you have experience on it.
My Prime is now starting getting green camera, very weak wifi and bluetooth which were never happened before.
Same here, but I'm in New Zealand. Can we RMA our Prime and get a refund instead, then buy a tf700?
Is this a known problem? I have had my prime for 6mths now and no probs

I thought that mine is nearly perfect, no problem at all but recently I have had some issue with Camera, Wifi. Now I am not to sure which part of Prime is failing next. It is usable, but so annoy. I am still waiting for Dev to has a way to unlock it after RMA I will sent it for RMA.
