Just bought one and love it! Definitely an upgrade from the Samsung 10.1…

Did you test the GPS? One of the biggest flaws with the TF201 is that the GPS was neutered by the aluminum back panel. One of the reasons the TF300 has a plastic back panel was to bring back the GPS and improve wi-fi.

I received mine on Wednesday and I would say so far Im happy with it. Last month I purchased the Saumsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 and was also happy with that for the month I used it. I find its construction sturdy and the screen bightness is more than enough for me using in my home. I added a 16GB microSD card just to give me some extra storage. ICS on a Tablet all I can say is that I would have it no other way.

Doesn’t the metal back of the prime stop the gps and the wifi connection? Isn’t the tf300 series and the tf700 series supposed to fix that?

That’s more like it. A transformer pad that’s actually affordable. Especially the 32GB version. You're not exactly gonna find a cheaper quad-core tablet with 32GB of storage anytime soon lol.

yea. dam . lol. yea, money’s going to be tight, want to finish my senior year in private school with my old friends… so.. ill probably look for the prime bundled with the keyboard on ebay.. . Or i would buy this but i would probably just buy the prime on ebay. Yea, i just hope the update comes may. But its still a great tablet, iv’e seen the new ipad but honestly the prime’s screen still doesn’t look that bad.. depends how much the newer one is when it comes out.. but definitely will be buying the new nexus tab.

Feeling is mutual. See you around..

Hmmm… $100 cheaper for the 32 gig model. It uses DDR3L memory as opposed to LPDDR2 AND it has Bluetooth 3.0 + EDR as opposed to Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR. me thinks the new Asus tab will perform better than the Prime.

I think this is perfect for my Mom. She gets a nice 16GB tablet that she can use at the cabin or sitting on the couch and since the she only uses it to read Nook books and play sudoku it’ll be fine. The lower quality doesn’t worry me for someone like her because it will not be out and about too much. The lapdock gives the added flexibility to use it over her laptop too. Now if only printing from these things were easier. I don’t care what anyone says until you get some better printing support people are going to overlook it. I know I hate having to run down to my PC because I want to print something, maybe it’s just what I am used to but there is a still a lot of room for growth in Android overall.

“I’ll take the bate and bight though.”-I don’t get it, is that some kind of jacking off joke or are you just occasionally dyslexic?

Anyways I actually read most of that and want to say cheers on having a pretty unbiased view of the mobile OS world. Personally I don’t think I would ever get an iOS device just because I’ve managed to go my whole life without putting iTunes on my computer and never will if I can help it. But I agree that the new iPad is pretty much a smack in the face to the Android tablet OEMs that they need to step up their game, and maybe to Google that they need to make hardware acceleration more accessible. Hopefully by the time I actually get around to buying a tablet they will have caught up though. I’m curious where you’d put WinPho in the OS lineup. I’ve never actually used it but it seems a lot better than iOS but still way too restrictive compared to Android.

The exact opposite, my Asus wouldn’t even turn on much less run the battery down… and their CS was a joke… would not help, or offer any option but return to the store for repair, and they don’t repair tablets…. so quite the incompetence on Asus…

no the new prime (Infinity) TF700 has higher screen resolution (1920x1200px) and twice the PPI also. well worth the $100……
