ya, i was gonna tell you its keyboard thingy is due to language settings. you'd hve noticed if you tried the keys on the the numbers... you'd get the pound instead of dollar sign. i know coz i also changed my default language originally to UKcoz i sun like my 'S' turning into 'Z'.

i m super happy... man, the ablet really takes on a different feel once its dock. i mean, the keyboard really makes the tablet exprience even more fun.

however, there is still lag even with the quick reply box.

so far, i'm loving this TF. previously , it was hard to control the cursor with thouchscreen. but now with mouse pad, so easy!

ok... i asked. the leather (so-called la) is about rm100.

for bleding issue. need to bring to asus service centre -- was told its opposite times square. they will assess and then decide if a repair is required.

charger and usb cabe... evernew dun ell them. again, have to go to the service centre...

i asked evernew staff abt charging -- can charge together, etc... they dun really know. i believe thy are really just into selling. product knowledge is almost zero. i guess during the launch, they had the sifu on site. coz during the launch, i asked many questions and the guys there could really answer.

forinitial charge of the dock, they told me only 3-4hrs is required. believe them or not?

ok, will update by tmrw. now charging my dock so a bit diff to edit.

Added on June 10, 2011, 10:09 pmpersonally, i won't follow the advice in the dock manual even though it states initial charge is 8 hrs. i suspect some lazy guy just do simple edit from the tablet manual coz sometimes can see manual talk about the tf101.

another thing... manual calls it the tf101 dock or sth like that. means this dock can't use on future models??? was hoping can wordk on padfone.

Added on June 10, 2011, 10:12 pmaccordingto the guy at evernew, whether got 1-to-1 depends on what the service centre says.

then again, i now find it hard to believe what those guys at evernew mv says. :-)

Added on June 11, 2011, 8:47 amctrl + shift. the kb option box should come up.

1Q. yesterday i was quite sure when i use the mouse pad to click a link, it opened up on the same tab inside the default browser. this morning, it now opens up as another tab. weird. how to make it open on same tab?

nope, din notice anything like that. charged fine both alon and with tablet. try again and see... could be just loose connection?

i am beginning to suspect the stock browser crashes quite often. at first, i tot maybe i pressed the home screen or sth... but when i click last used apps and select browser, none of my open tabs are there. anyone using stock browser and noticed this?

also, i noticed the charger can get quite hot... was charging for just 1hr or so.,.. but it felt quite hot. maybe that's the reason why XDA forum mentioned not to charge overnight? i was charging both dock and tablet.

ASUS says EeePad Transformer beats all tablets in June, besides iPad

mine is also similar... *sigh*

guys... i'll be adding the new owners to the name list and updating Pg1 in 1-2 days time. Sorry for the delay....

ya... top a few spots... bottom a few spots...

but din really wanna bother making noise since its only apparent/ visible during bootup or when the screen is showing pitch black background. plus, worry if i return and get a new unit with dead pixels... lagi jialat.

from what i read in XDA forum, 'repair' is usually just tightening up and covering the gaps. so, to me... kinda pointless la. but see how... maybe i log a call next week and see how. it's probably too late for a 1-to-1 anyway.

ya, i'll probably put a summary of issues as well on Pg1. but i think XDA forum got a comprehensive list... if i'm not mistaken. again... gimme 1-2 days ya... sorry. a bit rushing a few things and no time to edit the Pg1 today...

just checking... anyone with Honeycomb 3.1 before getting the dock... after you get the dock, any firmware updates? i dun have any updates yet until today.

also, added new owners to the list on Pg. if i missed out anyone, please PM me. added keyboard shortcuts as well. many thanks the CyberKewl for this. will do a 'known issues' section shortly.

one must remember... TF101 is still a tablet first. notebook second.

and personal opinion... tablet = touchscreen entertainment gadget. if you can do work with it, then its a plus point. and that's where the dock comes in. it helps 'doing work' easier.

Added on June 13, 2011, 9:07 amjust to add to this and my earlier comment about warranty via Evernew.

According to ppl @ Evernew MV, they can also do it for us (sent for service) but it will be slower coz they do in batches -- possibly once a week. So they advise us to go direct to service centre instead for faster turn-around.

for those with the speaker imbalance problem (if i understand the problem correctly, it should affect everyone), you can try the fix posted at XDA forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118010

from what i understand, its probably a type in a config file (missing a '0'). if this is truly the case, I am quite sure Asus will issue a fix/ update in the near future.

i'll wait for the official Asus update since the method posted in XDA forum requires rooting.

took quite sometime for me to copy out the photos from my camera... anyway, thought i'd share some of my unboxing photos...

i'd like to think that the future is headed towards using tablet being the mainstream device. however, there's still improvements to be made to the hardware (processing power), OS, etc...

but the TF offers a glimpse of what it would be like. you can type on the physical keyboard AND also manipulate the screen. nice!

this is something to think about...

some ppl believe its not good to charge the battery all the time. these ppl believe battery should be sufficiently drained before we charge it.

with the dock, the tablets gets charged all the time until the dock runs out of juice.

so, how? does that mean we can charge our tablet while its at 90%?

honestly, TF is nothing special as a tablet. it is like any other tablet out there.

the TF stands out when it is wit the dock -- which is why its also called Transformer. the dock is specially designed for the tablet and what makes the dock really useful is the fact that it is also a battery pack -- the TF101 with dock can last abt 16hrs. the keyboard also comes with special keys that makes the tablet even easier to use.

so far, usually the additional keyboard for other tablets dun have the extended battery function.


so honestly, if you dun plan to get the dock... any other 10" tablet should be very much the same...

i'm not very sure abt this... but if you are talking about tablets, they can't run too far off.

in the first place, currently there are very few 10" tablets in the market. the variations are more likely to be... USB ports on tablets? screen technology? OS updates? i think most would have Tegra 2 chipset anyway...

i'd think that the current 10" tablets in market would eventually all be getting HC3.1 anyway. i think Xoom and TF already have this. Iconia should be on its way...

if you want developer support, i guess one way is to check XDa forum and see which tablet has a section there.

Added on June 13, 2011, 10:47 amsame here. phone and notebook stays charged when i'm using it in office. phone gets charged usually in the morning.

so i guess tablet is no different then.

so now... 1 concern i have & i need to monitor... i felt my charge quite hot when i was charging both the dock and tablet 2 nights back. so far, seems only i have this problem. defective charger?!?
