It's not uncommon for these kinds of highly hyped devices to ship earlier than expected, just to get them into customer's hands faster in order to maintain the launch momentum. I just hope they maintain a high level of QC even if they're rushing to meet demand. Would be bad publicity if many early devices had problems, especially for people like us who are ordering from a foreign market.

I'm wondering why that customer wanted to cancel, though. :-/

Once you pre-order, you can't change. If you want to change number of device or change to different model, have to cancel and resubmit new order.

wonder where can get this....

Here pre order

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2412147/+40

but not local warranty correct?
just want get it using credit..>.<...

Local warranty u need to wait for local release. Pre order from US/Aus can use credit card.

can order from us? without using us address?
local credit card can be use?

Asus got international warranty. Not very sure though.

You need US address. Or use those forwarding services to order.

how to use forwarding services? they accept local cc?
where to buy (website / shop)?

About the OTG matter ...
I jut read a post about a person successfully rooted n7 but not able to watch video directly from usb device but he could transfer the file to n7 and watch it ...

My question is ... can we use OTG to connect ALL usb devices ?? Example 500 gb external hdd.

I have read about this somewhere.. the OTG hack allows all types of usb mass storage, except for the spinning disk type. E.g, external hard disk.

Not sure if i understand it correct though. Other tablet can support external hard disk? All I know is that even ipad do not allow that kind of stuff so there is not many reason to be disappointed.

this is the meaning of hackability mentioned in the google IO

yup, a very open os.
unlike one we know..

for those that try to use msia cc to order,
why cant use those virtual cc ?

Not sure how to help you. I just wait for half year see whether it's officially here. If it isn't, then buy AP set I believe it will be cheap by that time. If you're not rushing, why don't wait for 1 month or so, wait forumers bring them in in large quantity.

Actually... It can support mass storage but maybe not all 2.5" harddisk. 3.5" powered harddisk shouldn't be a problem. The main problem here is the power supply. USB harddisk is meant to function at 5V while tablet/phone batteries is normally 3.7V with a max voltage of 4.2V. You can't expect it to perform like a USB port on our laptop/PC. The current output is also much much lower. If you get what I mean

Yea I forgot about the external-powered hard disk.

Anyway Microsoft Surface tablet has a dedicated usb port specially for external storage. I guess they support the 2.5" usb-powered external hard disk?

Damn la all these competition me so pening pening

Yesterday was my first time holding a 7 inch tablet (Galaxy Tab)....

It... seems... so.. small.........

Don't you think 10.1 is too big? Use it to play game? Train muscle??

Aku real man, use 10.1 to play FPS

Deswai i rather wait for Nexus 10

Agree la. 10.1 will be too berat to hold for hrs. On the other hand the 7in will be a lot more comfortable.

Ok... Real man Real man.
You try take Asus Padfone to play. 850g for phone+tablet station.
