loving it - Eee Pad Transformer General

OK I got my new transformer yesterday and I'm loving it! after reading these forums I was worried about my purchase, but I'm very pleased....my dock should arrive in a few days cost they were out of stock.
just thought I would post something positive on here for a change

Same here. Coming from a Gtablet and this thing is a revelation.

when i just bought it feel like it is nothing but after several days of playing.... OMG this is so nice

Well right freaking on!

How responsive would you say the overall navigation is? I'm thinking of jumping on the Staples coupon and want the best tablet experience I can get with Android.

Cool. I'm kind of concerned about the video issues the Tegra/Honeycomb/whatever but in most cases I think I'll just stream it anyway

Thank you mom.
I think it does, im tired of *****ing in the other one about my declared war with Motorola
Mine came nicely packaged Wednesday at 11am, free case and all.
got mine yesterday from fedex with the case
Should be here on Monday standard shipping
got it yesterday
got it an hour ago
Little laggy in the browser, but not too shabby
Got mine yesterday 2 day shipping.
Got mine today so you can close the thread now! lol
Got mine today. Poor packaging, xoom box was not sealed and xoom was slidding around freely in box. Everything appears to be fine. I love this thing, only complaints are the speaker placement and the screen contrast. Othewise, I can't set this thing down!

Makes me feel a little better knowing there are others out there curled in a fetal position waiting for their Xoom to arrive too.

Remember they may win all the battles, but the war isn't over!
Well add me to the received tracking info side. Should be here by tuesday.
Only 3 more days left of *****ing & moaning for me!
F Motorola, lol, that is all. Still nothing, no tracking or call back
I am also still waiting... I am tempted to go buy one locally to make sure I like it. If I dont I would return the one I bought and sell the one I got from Motorola for some money. But after reading some reviews I think it will be okay.

[Q] Silly Doubt Regarding Back

Hey guys,
Got my wifi xoom a couple of days back from Best Buy and noticed that the rubber part is level on the left but protrudes out very slightly in the right and levels up again. The tab works fine though. Should I return it and get a new one or is it fine? I think its just the new gadget paranoia
Doesn't affect functionality then don't return it. Who knows its probably new gadget paranoia
I have that too on my 3G version. It works perfect so I am not worried. Some early pics I seen on the net looked like they had the same. I was worried for a day or two myself.

[OFFTOPIC] SGS2 is a total disappointment... "Important" functions NOT working...

[OFFTOPIC] SGS2 is a total disappointment... "Important" functions NOT working...
I read about all the features of the phone, it all got me very excited but some things are not working...
First of all, it doesn't bring me beer when I use vlingo and say " get me beer"
Second of all, Crysis 2 is not running at all. Phone's not that fast..
Last point: I put my phone into airplane mode, threw it in the air.....
Worst transformer ever.....
The rest is working pretty damn fine, so its maybe not a total failure. What are you disappointed about?
First I was like "Hahaha.. NOT" but after a few seconds I started laughing at your post xD
I have not been blessed with a GS2 yet, still waiting. The only thing I could be disappointed about is: build quality/how it actually feels in (my) hands. Further the TouchWiz and Battery life are two things I am semi-worried, but you know TW can be replaced by custom launcher or ROM and Battery life should be decent with tweaks.

Build is better than it looks, but the same goes for the sgs1. Dropped mine once and nothing to see, wiped the grains off and no damage at all. For the sgs1 you could buy stronger backplates and the same will go for this phone, looking at its sales. Samsungs internal build quality is actually one of the best in the business so I wouldn't be to worried. Touchwiz 4 is quite nice. Huge improvement over tw3, still I ditched it within 2 days. Launcherpro all the way for me
It's so thin, i can barely see it, wait...
because the thing i am disappointed is, that we still not have it here in Germany.
We should get this Phone about the same time as UK, but forget it. We are still waiting for that. Most of the people are ordering the phone in UK or Austria because they have it already and not only that, they still get new charges.
I like this Forum and i would like to make some Tweaks on this phone too, but i don't even know when I can get it.
By biggest complain is that it doesn't do bj...
Oh well, maybe it's successor will do

What about the vibrator ... u might find some app from market, transforming music to some good vibrations LOL
why doesnt it print money!! I cant believe i got this... how can i afford my uni costs now?
I really dont understand the haters but haters gonna hate i suppose, its literally the BEST phone ive ever owned, no regrets at all about buying it which is a first!
i just ordered mine.. will get it at the end of the month i think..
i just hope some roms are available till then, or i definitely start making my own^.^

First and foremost, this phone is utter crap, it ate hundreds of my lovely British pounds before I could even pick it up.
I thought it looked amazing so I spread some cheese on it, but it didn't taste ANYWHERE near as good as it looked, now it turns out I need to feed it even MORE money before it will work again...
Seriously upset.

They ARE the best in the business. Look around, nothing comes even close. They manage to fit virtually everything in (more ram then anyone else, quality cpu, screen out of this world) light and this THIN -->

Other companies are feeling the pressure now. 4inc and over screens need lightness otherwise it just becomes a brick, but then they have to fit in all the top specs inside too and they don't have the tech yet to do that.

Thank you Asus

Just wanted to add a happy voice to the discussion here. I'm involved in social media as a consultant, I must always be on, always connected, using my TF via a wifi hotspot on my phone is a LOT more pleasant an experience than working via my phone with it's tiny little screen
Love sitting outside on my porch,working while sipping cofee without having to lug a hot,heavy laptop with me.
Thank you Asus for this terrfic device, I also thank you also for listening & responding to the feedback users are giving you on this forum!
i agree, this is a pretty awesome device
Ya~
ASUS did it well this time. Good job !
same here.
The only thing stopping me from using the TF exclusively is that there is ONE app not available yet....when it is...bye bye laptop....you' stayin' at home!

I'm sure he's refering to Netflix lol. Yes 5 stars on this and not making us purchase the dock if we didn't want to
thanks for the offer....much appreciated but it's a very high end bible software app called "Logos" that is on the verge of releasing an Android version.....
I appreciate it anyway....
Edited to add....I want netflix too!

I agree, this is the best Android tablet release to date. ASUS has done a great job in designing (and pricing) this device.
I use it for business, and this weekend my wife asked if she could use it to look up something on the internet - it is now on her birthday wish list. She is an iPhone user, BTW.
I love my TF a little more each day! I love the freedom it gives me, no more having to pack and lug a laptop bag around with me!
Its the unhappy folks who tend to make their voice heard, while the happy rest of us enjoy life, right? glad to see someone give praise to the awesome device Im sittin on my porch drinkin a beer, listening to the radio and browsing the web on my tablet right now (colorado) Much love ASUS, and asus, please give us tegra3 transformer2 as soon as possible! haha
lol.. I just posted my own TF love post before reading this one. I totally agree!

If he's referring to netflix then just use splashtop and stream it as it runs GREAT on the tablet. Being able to text message, make a call, and watch netflix is a great feeling
I used to ask myself what was the point of a tablet and now I can finally understand the answer to that question.
Next week I think I am reordering mine. I sent it back to Amazon because it was having problems, but I am moving in a few days so I will wait until the move is done.
I like the lazy factor of a tablet I still feel much more productive on my PC, but I can't lounge around and poke at things on it. I also kind of miss dungeon defenders... I was thinking about the fact that the TF2 is just over the horizon, but I can afford to get a new TF and gift that to my little sister. That seems like a win-win if I ever heard one.

Amazon is sold out now but they last had the B6O revision so the next batch will probably be the same or higher. If you're going to reorder, now would be a good time.

Taking the plunge

Hey,
This morning my xoom arrived. The after spending £430 of my hard earned money I started to feel rather skeptical as I had never played with any android 3.0 tablet or even held the xoom in my hand before. At 11.00 the postman arrived to deliver, opened the box and switched it on. The initial impressions is that this is by far to best piece of tech I have invested in. Thinking back to my ipad I really did question why did i bother ith tht junk.
Just a quick thank you to all who advised on my previous posts about the xoom, it's brilliant.
Have a good day, and jordan
Glad to see u like it let the modding and fun begin =]

Sure, and the UK devices can be modified with the U.S. ROM to get the 3.2 update. How do you think I got mine updated?
It still stinks that we got missed in this promotion.
