I found out the reason behind why we have to "try our luck" with the proxy we found in hidemyass.com. It is because we are not using HTTPS proxy. In order for market to get connected to google market place, it has to establised a secured connection. I tried to filter out and take only the HTTPS proxy server, one time already success and I am now downloading apps from market without problem.

mydragoon, You might want to update the steps in your first page.

1) Download and use anycut to create shortcut to hidden proxy setting
2) Go to http://hidemyass.com/proxy-list/
3) select only the United States
4) Port(s), select "all ports"
5) Protocol, select ONLY HTTPS
6) Anonymity level, planetlab, speed and connection time, leave it by default or select all.
7) select the highest speed proxy and make sure the IP address is in 3 or 2 digits format. For example: DO NOT select 69.132.96.2 <--- not only 1 digit, it might be error or your honeycomb won't accept it. A good one would be 173.212.227.188
8) Remove your account from pad/tablet from account & sync in settings
9) Run android market, re-enter your account
10) I think you can remove the proxy after this as it is no longer required (after the next update or whenever android market cache is cleared)

I tried it when I was still having problem with market, it just don't work as well.

Now after going thru the proxy cheat, website or the market apps works like a charm.

You might want to try skyfire browser. I tried it on my iphone and I can switch between a desktop / mobile agent.

Oh ya, I did notice that right speaker is louder, forgotten to complain about this when I was in Asus center yesterday.

I did that.

and life has became so grey.

*just kidding*

Ya, it is written clearly in the manual. I can only remember it turns green when it is fully charged or between 95-100%.

Yday when I turn on the machine, it auto downloads the 3.1 firmware and keep telling me there are some apps update. I tried the updates like the google map, everything done smoothly.

Added on June 8, 2011, 9:39 amThanks for sharing the price list. That means only the 32GB model will have 3G module built-in?

So far only 16GB and 16GB + Dock is available in Malaysia market, right?

OMG~~!!!! WHAT!!!

Just installed "pulse" in TF and the interface is design for tablet use!!! Woohoo! one more tablet apps now.

It is a news reader. Something like CNN apps, but CNN apps is only for CNN news. If you also reading news from various sources (which I think you do), you don't have to download so many apps, just use PULSE, you can configure it to retrieve all the news source you like on one single interface.

Added on June 8, 2011, 5:19 pmYes, it is.

By the way, the CNN apps is also design for Android Tablet.

They got stock? I was there yesterday and they said no stock wor.

I have finished rooted it and installed the custom ROM, I am loving it even deeper now.

I did exactly the same. Primordial 3.1 + the world wide patch.

Can this be put at the first page? Are all these rooting thingy allow to be discussed in this forum?

ya, u better ask the shop first, you might need to give an authorization letter to your representative.

I didn't go back to Penang until next month else I can help you to pick it up.

Going for the ipad?

My colleagues ask me to bring TF to the office and show them. I showed them in oldtown during lunch time, of coz showing with they keyboard first and then proceed to undocking the screen, they are like "wow... like that one ar... amazing" and people from other tables also keep looking at us.

Ended up they are going to buy this TF too. I fee like I am the ambassador for this product, can I claim $$$$ from Asus? Hahaha...

Added on June 9, 2011, 5:27 pmI am doing both actually. I am charging the dock and connected the tablet to it, so basically one connection charge both and I charge them overnight since they are taking such a long time to charge. So I think overnight charging is the best way but now... it seems like I am doing something harmful to the product.

I hate this kind of people la, they think they know everything in IT and have forgotten that the world out there filled with a lot more experts.
If don't know also pls don't simply give this kind of lame reason lo....

i can't use market enabler althought i have rooted the machine, i believe it is detecting my cellular data which i dont have this module.
