It got it first because the hardware is almost identical to the nexus 7…. it’s the easiest port for them.

Yes, definitely update to Jelly Bean, though everyone keep in mind that means you will lose Adobe Flash support.

I won’t buy another Android device if tf101 doesn’t receive ongoing support.

the TF300 will get it first. the reason i say that is the TF300 is still a great tablet, but its not the best one they have. when JB first came out, they pushed it to the TF300 first and then let all the bugs report so they knew what to fix before they pushed it to the TF700, and others. Then they pushed an update to fix all the bugs.

Unless your device is over a year and a half “old”, then their support is crap. If your device in new, then their support is awesome. But they I guess they are better than Verizon/Motorola, which isn’t much of a statement.

Wifi issue is slightly over exaggerated, I get far worse signal than my laptop/phone/etc, however it still works get decent speed from it.. bluetooth I’ve yet to have an issue with.. GPS they sent out a dongle to fix that issue.. GPS is the only thing I would consider an utter failure on the tablet, but serious I wouldn’t use my tablet as a gps ever.. plus I can bluetooth it from my phone if I really needed it..

Who wrote the petition? The grammer and english usage is terrible. Please correct it before I’ll put my name on it!

The only way that will ever happen is if Google locks the OS down. Most of the issues are caused by MFGs F’n with the OS.

Also another big issue is because of all this “Special Front End” mods these MFGs are making it’s hard going from one Android device to another, even with the same version of the OS.

Imagine the caos if MS and Apple allowed every Tom, Dick and Harry company Mod their OSs!

Google gives Android to these MFGs, the least they can do for the end users is make the OS standard from one MFG to another. Also think how fast we would all get the “MOST” recent update to ANDROID.

What about the issues with Bluetooth, Wifi and GPS?

Exactly where are you getting your information? I agree it’s highly unlikely they will offer up a Jelly Bean version, but it would be nice for the clean up and fix “ALL” issues with their last update of ICS.. My TF101 was very stable until that update.

At ASUS the customer service representatives tend to be the last to know! Last I heard from peeps over at ASUS was that they hadn’t decided “if it was worth it” for upgrading TF101 users. Would recommend keeping the pressure on them by signing the petition http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/update-to-android-jelly-bean-41-for-asus-tf101/

Lets hope the update includes the new 4.2 UI used on the Nexus tablets (or at least gives users the option to use that UI.

Zero chance. Asus has silently abandoned Tegra 2 devices, as soon as the media forgot about its promise that JB was definitely coming for the TF101. (A promise made only to avoid negative publicity, not because any update was actually being worked on.)

Tegra 3 owners are laughing… for now. As soon as the first tablet with Tegra 4 (or whatever it goes on to be called) comes out, they’ll quickly find themselves abandoned as well, even if there are major bugs remaining in the final release. It’s the Asus way.
