The longer they delay our docks, the more furious ppl get. It's pretty obvious on their FB page. Seriously guys, will u ever buy from them again?
*
honestly speaking, this is probably the last time i dive head-in for an asus product. i trusted Asus and believed i was among the pioneer batch and would be treated as such. however, its leaving a bad after-taste at the moment. excuse of different sku or what not... but then... you're doing a bundled pre-release. so how could they be selling an un-bundled package as a package?

it does not help that others are getting the dock and getting the full transformer experience while the pioneer batch is stuck to having a plain tablet (that can't do much since we're also facing market problem -- at least luckily we found some workaround).

but from them? maybe... but pioneer batch? definitely not (well, i might change my mind if they are giving the dock to me free).

To add salt to the wound, some shops are giving out free sd card + hdmi cable..i paid RM 40 + for the hdmi cable sad.gif

what?!? mad.gif vmad.gif

i paid rm80 (or sth like that) for the promo package -- it had 8gb card, hdmi cable and screen cleaner.

*sigh* please dun tell me at least i got a case. i dun find the case useful. i'd prefer the one i posted earlier -- for iconia.


Added on June 8, 2011, 5:07 pmi'm thinking... asus probably laughing all the way -- pioneer batch = BIG waterfish.

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. smile.gif

Yes, it is.

Latest update from asus FB:

no lawsuits. not tribunal hearing... no extra free gifts.

for the rm1 discount, my lesson learnt is... next time no need to pre-order with any Asus Product. Wait 1 week later and can buy full set at almost same price -- or probably even better deal (like the one that came with free microSD and mini HDMI cable).

i dun think evernew is to blame. well, at least for me... i'm under the impression that Asus MY is the one that planned this event and they just selected that shop to 'launch' the product.

Well asus product build quality still the best for me... but i wont go to any their pre-order anymore...

can't comment too much on build Q since its my first asus product. but ya, i'm ok with it.

yes, agree this is the last time i go near asus pre-order...

QUOTE(hengsin @ Jun 9 2011, 03:02 PM)
Hi All,

Do your know any place that I can test this device ( Preferably PJ or Kepong area ) ? I've tested IPad2 at Harvey Norman and would like to try this as well.
*
honestly, modern day tablets all behave almost the same way. not much to test unless you wanna feel how heavy it is, etc...

i recall some owners bought their unit from digital mall. so you can try the shops there.

for me... i think the only reason why i got the TF is because of the dock. it is both a battery and keyboard. the integrated design means its something thought of by the people at Asus. so no need to get separate BT keyboard. and yes... with the dock that also doubles as battery, specs say we can get up to 16hrs.

I shared this in another thread, but is good to share it here too as it is really more to the Asus TF.

When I got my TF, I also bought a netbook case. I was in a shop trying to get a screen protector and the guy asked me what is the size, I said is for my Asus 10,1". He said.. can I see? So I open up and showed him. Then he said, this is not a tablet, this is a notebook. Then I undock the tablet and he was like sooooooo surprise and malu abit and said... wah like that also can ah?

Is really funny to see the reaction of people. I was in McD and another German restuarant and quite a number of them looking at the product especially when I remove the tablet and play games. It really do transformed... ha ha ha

So, I guess not many people know about this tablet yet. The Padphone would be another COOL product in the near future.
*
ya, i expect this to make ppl's jaw drop and eyes pop out... imagine opening like notebook... type... then after that, undock and become tablet.

padfon... ya... interesting. in fact, last year, i was telling a fren how manufacturers should come up with that -- a one-up from motorola atrix since ppl are now going tablet. would be even better if the TF101 dock works on the padfon.

well, we'll have shahz comment once he gets an engineering unit... i think he mentioned probably year end or sth...
