hi guys, im really interested bout gettin this asus TP, but i need an update a bit regarding this tablet.. i heard this tablet hav few issues like gps not workin properly n also wifi signal is low.. so r all this true? has asus fixed all the issues? also how many model of asus tp hav? cos i also heard that there will the one without aluminum backplate instead it will be plastic.. hope u guys can gimme a summary regarding my questions.

WiFi seems like not having any problem for Malaysia batch? Try read previous few post, there is a few TP owner here tested on the WiFi and does not seem like having any problem, while for the GPS, so far no one in here really tested yet i think but i doubt it will be working that well and besides, in my opinion GPS is not that important. I believe the one you saying without aluminum back plate should be TF700 which just announce in CES 2012, I believe it wont be release that soon at least another 4~5 month. 

oic, it is not that gps is very important for me as i can use my phone for that or i can just go and buy d dedicated gps device howeva it is kinda sad if TP gps indeed faulty as we pay for full price but get a device that have somethin nonfunctional. btw wat is the cause of this issue? i heard it is design flaw right or the use of aluminium as the back plate.. wateva it is this asus tp really stunnin wit its design.

Yeah, from what i read is because of the aluminum back plate which block the signal. Yeah, the design is really nice, i love it alot  while for the Tf700, with that plastic part on top make the design kinda ugly.

got any pic of tf700? i would lyk to c the difference..

i google cant find any pic of it, but the spec surely amazing, 1920 x 1200, super ips +, are those even necessary? wat will all the app look like in that resolution? stretch out?

What you can see here it looks more gun metal.
At certain light condition it looks purple or amethyst.

Whereas mine and zorex looks silver the most.
At certain light condition have a tint of gold.

Yes, the dock is also gold, giving it a little contrast to the black bezel on the tab.
Just some personal preferences.

haha, meeninme is right..

I lazy take out my cam to take nicer pic lerr.. I only use my HTC's lousy cam. If tmr Im hardworking enuf, i take few closeup..

Anyone managed to get the GPS to achieve a fix? I tried for about 5 mins outdoors but could not....

For me, the following is a deal breaker for getting a tablet:

(i) Lagging issue - ( i want at least on par with Ipad2)
(ii) Connectivity issue  (wifi and bluetooth signal reception is weak, GPS i dun really mind

As for number (ii), the problem has been acknowledged by ASUS due to the aluminium body, but some guys here having no problem with that issues..

as for lagging issue, i've tested myself yesterday and the lagging is quite bad - but could be due to honeycomb firmware. but before u get your firmware updated to ICS, are u agree with me that scrolling is not as smooth as ipad2?

If yes, even on honeycomb, it will run on par with Ipad2. But remember, ICS already changed the game.

ps: even my phone notyet root..

Hurm indeed not as beautiful as tf201 original TP, guess nothin is perfect..

As for Transformer Prime 3G rumors and Transformer 700 confusions, we wish to clarify the following:

"In the wake of recent reports in the media regarding the development of a Transformer Prime Android tablet with on-board 3G, ASUS would like to take this opportunity to state that these reports are erroneous and no such product exists on our current roadmap.

Furthermore, the Transformer TF700 that was shown for the first time at CES 2012 is a completely new product that will co-exist with the Transformer Prime aiming different market segments. The TF700 features the latest 1920x1200 full HD panel and will be available in the second quarter of 2012.
