[UPDATE] LAST DAY 12-15-11: WIN 2 Transformer Primes + Docks and Kindle Fire!

Hey everyone,
I'm working as a CampusRep for ASUS Computers at Cornell University and was hoping you could all help me out.
ASUS Holiday Contest
You can enter to win TWO Transformer Primes
Here is the link http://www.facebook.com/AsusCornell?sk=app_250581868336547. The winner will win TWO Transformer Primes and TWO Keyboard Docks. All you have to do is like the Facebook page and fill out the contest entry form.
As an added bonus (for me) If you get my page to 1000 likes before the other competing pages, I get a Transformer Prime too!
I'll need your help and reshares so that we can win.
PLUS if I get those 1000 likes I'll also give away my Original Asus Transformer w/ Keyboard Dock and Sleeve!
THAT'S THREE TRANSFORMERS!

I know there are a lot of people on this forum so I would really appreciate all your help.
Thanks,
Gary
UPDATE (12/5/11):
Just to update everyone, another rep already reached 1000+ likes on his Asus Campus page meaning that the deal for my OG Transformer + Dock + Sleeve is off the table...
BUT!
If I am in the top 3 reps with the most entries in the contest I will get a minor incentive AND if I am in the top 6 reps with the most new Facebook likes between December 1-15 then I will get another minor incentive.
What this means is that I want to give back for those helping me. Here are the possible gift scenarios.
If I get both of these goals then I will still honor my Kindle Fire giveaway to one member of XDA.
If I reach the first goal (top 3 reps with most entries) only then I will giveaway some other prize TBD.
If I reach the second goal (top 6 reps with most new likes) only then I will giveaway a Wintech 16GB Class 10 microSD card.
All prizes will include Asus swag bag with two t-shirts, pens, and a Lamborghini 2GB Flash Drive.
Thanks again for all those who have helped and please go to AsusCornell to enter to win a TF Prime for you and someone of your choosing!

Dangit... Cant enter until I turn 18 in 5 days.
Seeing a great increase in the number of "likes" almost to the point where I'm thinking of adding another prize. I have a BNIB Kindle Fire that I'm thinking of throwing in for an XDA member if my page gets to 1000 likes first.
I need everyone's help though.
1.) How will I know if the person that "liked" the page is Ann XDA member?
2.) How will the winner be chosen?
Feedback its important.

I will probably enter the contest as well.
However to answer your questions.
How will you know if they are an XDA member, simple, upon deciding the winner you ask them if they are.
If they are and have an existing account then great, they win the extra prizes, this way no one can accuse you of fudging the winner to make sure it is an XDA member.
If they are not a member of they created the account after you ask them then they do not get the extra prizes, make sure that it is clear that they must be an existing XDA member.
As for how to choose the winner, that is rather easy as well.
After all of the likes and contest entries are in, use any of the random number generators available out there and set it to choose from 1 to whatever number of entries there is, run it 3 times, then use the mean or median to find the winner.
Or even better...make it someone who comments on this thread. (There have to be some sort of rules against this on XDA...)
if you want 1000 likes. i'll get you 1000 likes.

Well I was thinking that there would be two different winners. One winner (Original Transformer) out of all the "likes" on my page and then the other winner (Kindle Fire) would be out of the "likes" from XDA members. Additionally, XDA members will still be eligible gor the Original Transformer.
As for the second question it could be a random generator for the Transformer prize and maybe the same for the Kindle Fire. Or maybe choose from those people who post on this thread (and the one in the General section of the original Transformer) as another member mentioned.
So keep the "likes" coming and please share and repost so others can see. Remember, the extra prizes from me (i.e. Original Transformer and Kindle Fire will only be given away if my page reached 1000 likes first. The two Transformer Primes are randomly chosen regardless of likes though, just fill the entry form.
Thanks again for helping me out.

Excellent! I'll do what I can to increase the number of 'Like's you have.

Tablets?

I just spent a few minutes in best buy looking at tabs and I want one. Which ones do you all own and what is the best "bang for your buck?" I was impressed with both asus devices

I own the OG Xoom and love it. Best bang for your buck might be the Kindle Fire. Heard great reviews about it.

There is no Rezound tablet, making this the wrong forum for the question.

IPad or Asus transformer prime. Bang for the buck? Prime.
As for the fire, its a 7in tablet running Android but with its own unique UI I dislike. Rooted its pretty cool tho.
Rumor mill is that Asus may be making a 7in nexus tablet.
Should be cheap too.
I have two Asus TF101's and I'm going to order a new Asus TF300 on friday.
I have a kindle fire and love it!
The devs on that forum work their magic on the device. Just as the devs here work thier magic for our rezounds!
New iPad here. The iPad 2 is a great buy.

Unless something has change the KF has no hardware accelerate which means no YouTube HD video for one.

The HP Touch Pad isn't bad my man Leoisright has done a fantastic job on it. I don't think you can buy one and even if you could I would not recommend it at this point. If I was dead set on Android I would probably spend the extra cash and get the Asus Transformer Prime. Otherwise the iPad. BTW I haven't had to buy any apps for the iPad. Also the apps are much more mature then they were on Android.

2 Fake Notes Hit The Market

Engadgets KIRF articles are some of my favorite. I love to see the absurd to amazing clones that come out. But today they posted up Samsung Note clones. The appear to be international clones. See link for story.

Did any of you see the commercial of the Note 2? Personally I found it hilarious. I posted this in here since the commercial was about the Note 2.

Not a commercial man myself. I just love my Note 2.
Thanks for the posting the video. Honestly, the commercial with LeBron James sparked my interest in the phone. He's my favorite basketball player. Before you ask, no. I didn't get then phone because he has it.
I got it after about a month contemplating about whether or not I should dump my iPhone 5 for the GN2.

The commercial wasn't about the note 2. It was a generalized Samsung mobile commercial. If you noticed they didn't put any special emphasis on a specific device.

This ^^^. Samsung will always have the "Next big thing". So maybe a new phone in the near future? One can only hope.
Also, "Better call Saul"
The start of commercial was showing off the Galaxy Note 2. It didn't mention it by name but features of the Note 2 were clearly displayed.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2
They specifically reference an S Pen, and not to mention that is a Note 2 in their hands. While they aren't outright saying "buy the Galaxy Note 2" they are definitely referring to it. I've seen several ads over the past 2 months specifically talking about the Note 2 and using the words the next big thing as a double meaning. Both in that it's a big thing literally, and it's the next big thing to happen to smartphones.

What made YOU choose Nexus 10?

What made you choose this device instead of others? Will you select your next tablet based on the same criteria or do you care more about some other spec?

In this order:
Development, Processor, Resolution, Price
I came from the fantastic Acer a500, so it had to be a damn good device.
screen res, nexus status. if a new N7 was out with a higher res screen, I would have gotten that. but this was a work purchase, and the fiscal year is ending so I needed to buy now it's an upgrade from my galaxy tab 10.1.
edit: not a reason why i purchased, but the front speakers are impressive, at least compared to my old tab.
Development,screen, front speakers, design
I had a Nexus 7 at the time, and prior to that, a Galaxy Tab.
- I wanted to try a larger tablet
- The specs were pretty awesome
- Rear-facing camera (found it a real pain that my N7 didn't have one)
- Screen resolution
- Front-facing speakers
- Nexus
Was kind of concerned with the pace of development at first. Seems alright now I suppose :good:
Still kind of interested in trying out a Windows tablet for some specific games though...

Why did you make this thread? For post count?
Will you make future threads based on the same criteria or do you care more about spamming the forums?
In other words, did you search before making this thread?
It's a nexus and has soo many pixels. I like pixels. It was most certainly NOT because it has a rear facing camera.
Screen and specs, android, knew it would have a strong development community supporting it, specs will make it decent for a couple years, I travel for work and need something to check email daily, laptop too heavy, etc. And it's a fun toy.

Specs but mostly that I could rely upon swift updates to Android rather than lagging behind at least one release at all times.

I had yet to own a Nexus device, and I wanted to know what the pure vanilla experience was all about. Sure I've rooted it and tried other ROMs, but I keep going back to the stock 4.2.2 ROM.

the screen, the processor, nexus device, that black on black.
why
Have the Nexus 4 already.
Came from a Tablet S and was a bit disappointed in the updates or lack thereof as well as the shell design. Thought it was cool for about a week.
Top reasons:
Standard android
Screen
speakers
My experience so far is excellent with no complaints. It's much faster, better screen, better speakers, better wifi (much). I like some of the Sony apps like Music Unlimited but I can just download them if I want them.
I don't think I will ever buy another non-nexus device for cell or tablet. Price is right and updates are swift.
What made you choose Tablet S ?
Sent from my Nexus 10 using xda app-developers app
tablet s
Thought it was a bit different at the time. Bought it back in 2011 when it first came out. Kind of bought into the whole it's easier to hold thing with the wide grip on the one side. Also the first to have the remote IR feature (which I never used hardly). I had the X10, Sony Arc and then the Xperia S so was just keeping it in the family so to speak. Still think the Sony UI is very intuitive compared to the Samsung, LG and Htc overlays.
I chose the Nexus 10 because it was the successor to the Motorola Xoom. Stock Android with updates direct from Google. That's what mattered. There was no other choice.
Winning it in the favorite things sweepstakes mostly
