Hi all,
Just thought I'd come and introduce myself to this part of the forum
I just ordered a prime... I currently have a good old trusty Motorola Xoom which was starting to get to me because of the weight and thickness.
I was going to go for an Infinity but it's out of my price range. Looking forward to getting my hands on the Prime and rooting it... currently have my Xoom rooted and running EOS jelly bean.

If infinite is out of price range. The I would recommend the tf300 instead.

What? why? you just shot yourself in the foot. People are selling and exchanging primes left and right. Be prepared to spend good chunk of time on troubleshooting. Best of luck and hope u have a functional unit (if such a prime exists)
I just bought one over a week ago and think its great. $399 new at office depot Dock is $99 (in store only)
Apparently my happiness i abnormal?! Welcome to the forum!
Welcome. But I have to say why too man.

Welcome to the tfp section! I hope you enjoy your prime as i have mine. Don't get twisted over all the negative stuff here. there are some people that seem to have issues but there are many that are very happy with it. Zero problems for me. I hope your experience is as good as mine.
Yeah people are ridiculously negative on here. Haven't had it long, but have had zero problems. Love it so far

Maybe people are negative because they are fed up with all the issues with a $500 device. Maybe the new ones are better since asus had us (the early users) to beta test it for 10 months.

There were some bad apples, i have my prime since January 2012 and i've been very satisfied ever since i got it. And now with JellyBean its totally awesome.
I love my prime, had to go through 5 before I got a good one. Mainly screen issues but I love it!
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
Welcome aboard. Try and ignore all the negative comments. It's the same with any device - you only hear the people that have issues because most that have no issues don't seek out forums for help. I have had one or two problems but for me the good outweighed the bad and now with JB the Prime is even better. I would have my Prime with keyboard dock over any other tablet out there as it looks and feels great and does everything I want it to do and more.
When you get yours, set up your gmail and wireless, check for and download the update and let the Prime do it's thing, then do a reset so the system is fresh and then install you apps and enjoy. Hopefully you will have a good experience and enjoy your Prime as much as many others do

Don't flame me... I actually have a valid point (to me anyway) for asking this.
The reason I am asking is because I'm pretty sure I am going to be getting one so I am curious as to which developers from the 3D will be getting one. I think the developers we have here are some of the best around and it would be awesome if some of the devs around here are getting it. I would hope that the dev community on the first quad core tablet would be awesome but ya never know.

this... tablets are the ****.. i got a touchpad...
i heard many bad things about the Prime... check over in the forum... bunch of hardware/software problems i would love to buy one but it took me 5 different evo 3d's before i found one that i could live with and it has a dead pixel
i cant wait till development starts pushing out ICS roms in the touchpad forum rather than Gingerbread.... but then again... its only 3 people that i know of doing any development for the touchpad
No. I bought into the hype of the original Transformer, and returned it right at my 14-day mark. The TouchPad suits me just fine. For the price I paid, it's an unbeatable deal.
I was going to get a Prime until I heard about all the problems. In the meantime I have a piece of crap Streak 7 to tide me over. I decided my next tablet is going to have true stylus support (like the Note/Flyer types, only 7-10" with at least a dual-core processor). That is partly because I do write out notes every day in my line of work. Probably 7" would be best so I could hold it in one hand while writing with the other...but I digress...
I have the prime and I can say it is easily the best tablet on the market
I already have mine with no issues at all. Viperboy already has a root/unroot tool available, but ICS is coming on the 12th anyways. The tablet has great battery life and is unbelievably smooth in just about everything it does.

A buddy of mine has one also. I have played with it and the thing is badass! I think the only way I wont get a Prime is if HTC or someone comes out with a S4 tablet in the same price range. The qualcomm chip is freaking amazing!

I have an acer iconia a500 tablet. I do like it, don't get me wrong. But It's not worth more than the $300 we bought it for. It's just a gadget, plain and simple. If your going to drop $500, $600 you might as well get a laptop, but that of course is just my opinion.
I've got my Prime coming on Monday. Can't wait!
i'll be getting one as soon as i can. finally get to upgrade from my ipad (so laggy, so, so, laggy)

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.

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.

You're asking this...on an Android forum. Seriously, what kind of answers did you expect?
Get the iPad if you want easy to use. I mean real easy to use. If you want to do something and can't, you probably can't. Android, you could find a way, but you'd need to look. I found that Apple is better for people who can single task while Android is better for people who multitask. Doing more than one thing at a time. The iPad 3 will only have better resolution, camera, and maybe a little faster. The Prime is already better (besides resolution) and does so much more. But, you need to learn it. If you dont want to spend time on technology, get the iPad. But once you start going down the easy path, it's hard to get out. I have an iPad for work (my boss bought me one) and it's very boring already. The first day I learned everything I could. Android I learn new things almost everyday. And its been almost 2 years since I've been playing with Android
If you want to do something and can't, you probably can't. Android, you could find a way, but you'd need to look.

Exactly..
I've got an iPad 2, as does my wife. It's perfect for her, but I hate how limiting it is.. I wouldn't ever go back to an iOS device. If I can't even get access to the underlying file system, it's just not going to work for me, I don't care what the specs are.
While I'm sure the ipad 3 will be a great hardware device ios is simply for those users who can live in a very weak and limited multi tasking world. For me its about Android more than the hardware when it comes to the tablet platform.

If you ever noticed, women are always the ones who prefer Apple products. I think most women aren't very tech savvy, so they go with a more popular brand, thinking it must be good because people camp out for their crappy products.

same as you, coming from a nook color. TBH, I hardly ever used the nook, but I love my touchpad. The screen size is so much better for pretty much everything.
Love mine too. WebOs just works and Android is pretty cool. Drop another couple bucks and score the Touchstone charger.
Did you get the 16GB or the 32GB version? If you got the 32 then $175 is a great deal. If you got the 16GB version then thats about the right price. As far as it being a good Tablet, its awesome. For one, as I'm sure you know, it can dual boot Android and webOS. webOS itself is awesome but the app catalog doesnt compare to the Play Store. You will be happy with it I'm sure.

I want to say thank you to the devs on this device and sort of thank the Prime as it made me learn much more about tweaking than ever before.

Think I'm gonna try to convince my retailer to trade it in for me, though I doubt I will be successful... I don't have the heart to sell this thing to anyone. I don't like selling broken crap.
Goodbye and please don't post here again. There are plenty of satified Prime owners that are sick and tired of crappy posts such as this.

It is a sad goodbye honestly. I had a love hate (harsh word but best I can think of) relationship with it.

Not bitter at all. Sorry your experience with the Prime was good/bad. Personally it's the best Android device I've owned so far. I've not had any of the problems (except GPS) that others have had. I'm just tired of all the negative threads. Prime this, POS that.
After running JB hard the past 24 hours my Prime is working buttery smooth and it's gotten better and better since I bought it Dec. 27th, 2011.
I guess I should just stop clicking on them.

Thanks for being real and I agree with the bitterness on this forum and don't want to contribute. I've edited the OP to reflect.

No disrespect intended, and I'm not getting on your case, but maybe you get negative comments because of what could be the real purpose of the post? Unless you're just angry about the Prime and wanting to blow off steam, but then there are multiple threads all over the net for that, why post that you're getting rid of it? I'm a phone junkie, and figure a way to upgrade every year, even by buying outright off of Craigslist or eBay, but I don't post every time I move from one device to another. Why would I? I'm just curious why the Prime seems to get so many posts like this.

I normally see goodbye/thank you dev posts and thought it would add closure to the sale of it. It honestly just didn't meet my needs. Yes it had issues but depending on your use case you may or may not have ever noticed/cared. I'm a phone/tablet/PC/any gadget junkie myself as well and don't normally ever part with my devices (I have a very nice collection going). This one was an exception as I'm just not going to have any uses for it and never was attached to it like most others I have owned. I didn't mean to make a stir honestly and maybe my original post was negative. I didn't mean it to be that way but perception is everything so I changed it.

Ok, I can understand a bit more then. You don't normally get rid of your devices and since this is an abnormal experience for you, sort of a closure then. I get it. Thanks for sharing.

I feel bad for you if this POS is the best Android device you've ever owned. What others have you owned? I'm guessing it was the Samsung Continuum and nothing else. Maybe I'm spoiled because all of my other Android devices are Nexus devices, but the TF201 is an embarrassment to android.
