QUOTE(BBXiong @ Jul 5 2011, 11:19 AM) some of us mentioned something about the battery drains faster when we put it to idle with the keyboard right? i think i noticed one thing... when we just close the lid when we dock the keyboard, the LCD with be turned off for 2 seconds, then turned back on at minimum brightness, at least for my unit, and that would totally explain why it's draining more battery then usual. i also notice if i put my TF to sleep(press power button) before closing the lid, it will not have such situation, maybe close lid will not bring TF into deep sleep state... Never had this problem on my side... when close the lid the tablet sleep completly...can anyone else confirm this?  |

Question to transformer owners: Does the transformer has built in radio to listen to local radio stations?

i'm not really sure bout the TF turning back on when the lid is closed, doubting that any apps in background causing TF to turn on coz even when mail notification coming in, the screen is still off (when un-docked).
Did you noticed that every time we close the lid there's a click sound signaling the screen is turned off and locked. btw...how do you know its turned on with minimum brightness? hard to peak though huhu.... |

The awake part doesn't tell the story cuz u can have the 'system' awake, but the screen is still OFF.
The screen ON indicator would be more relevant in this scenario. |

guys, silly question, it says that TF got 1gb RAM, but why does in running apps, I could only found a total of ~520mb only? -- the one that shows how many RAM is used (~140mb) and how many are free(~380mb)
where does the other 480mb went to? |

I always charge my tablet with my dock. I heard its not good to charge together? Is it true?
I feel the battery was superb for the 1st month i use. Now i think it drains faster especially when im not using it. |
