Asus - Oppertunity to show how much you love your customers. - Eee Pad Transformer General

Valentines day is only a week or so away, perhaps you can show your love for us, with a nice present... I'm not talking flowers or chocolates, some IceCreamSandwich....
Think of it as a great marketing opportunity... Pull out all the stops...

Asus called me... they said they saw your post here on XDA and they will think about it.

ASUS lives next door to me and he just told me the other day:
"RULE #1 - Never ask for an ETA!"

Lmfao this comment and the one above +1000
Although I agree that it would be a smart marketing move!! and create alot of unintended free buzz but may wreck several relationships in the process aswell

Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium

Asus posted on their Facebook page about a unsolicited sexual advance they had been offered on XDA... They were so shocked and offended that they have stopped working on ICS and began developing an Internet based pepper spray.
You really are CRAZY Peter...

lol yay! 10char

Asus told me they can't focus on their old relationship because they are focused on fixing their new relationship (the Prime)
Asus said that the Prime and Asus had issues from the beginning and it still isn't worked out. If by Valentines day the relationship isn't fixed Asus is dumping the Prime and moving on to the TF300!!!

Can't believe it, Asus makes itself another victimized partner. Asus is a serial Doctor Frankenstein!!

There is some freaky mandroid love going on in this thread, for sure. It's a good thing that we didn't get the update in time for Groundhog Day

waiting
still no update date but @ least we know its this month that only leaves 23 more days. here is the quote its from asus facebook page " ASUS Several of you have asked for a specific date on the ICS update for TF101. We don't have an exact date yet, but it should be this month. Our engineers are all back from their Chinese New Year celebrations now so we will have an up to date schedule shortly. As soon as we know more, we'll let you know on here, so stay tuned and thanks for your support!

its not necessarily a marketing ploy to get more money, if anyone here has done any research or read about it they would know the x10 HD is the exact same phone as the x10 (hardware n all) it just has 2.1 (which supports hd video recording).
and obviously since the 2.1 update is supposed to come out next week they will be advertising it like crazy since its something people have been waiting for.

Exactly. I don't get what the big deal. It's just a rebranding, just like how the HTC Magic was renamed the Magic+ here in Canada by Rogers when it got its Sense UI.

If the point of marketing isn't to generate more money for your company, then what is it?
Sent from my rooted X10a using Tapatalk
Guys chill out! This should be considered great news for X10 owners, simply because if SE advertises the same X10 after the upgrade to 2.1 as a new phone. This means it will likely be upgraded to Froyo! Therefore, if it gets 2.2 you will also get 2.2 right ?
So actually this is good news, and it will be a pleasure if this device gets Froyo, because it rocks already! By the way if you don't mind me asking, where exactly did you capture this picture?
I also see it as a marketing strategy is simple you add something different to the existing product and ready .. thousands more sales.
but that comment you said you opened my eyes and you're right .. if Sonyericsson sell it as new phone is very possible that give new upgrade for the "new buyers"
Let's hope so! would be great news
sorry my bad english
Yes.. We can expect 2.2 at Q4 2024 from $€.
Good thought anyway.

thanks to svetius for giving us a notion ink adam section! http://notionink.wordpress.com/ and this tablet should be on the market very soon!
I am very interested in this tablet. I would like to see how much interest the community here have on this tablet. That would be a make or break factor for me on purchasing this tablet.
I am hopeful that there will be some interest here at xda as well but I am confident the stock adam is gonna be awesome out of the box. Any hacks and mods discovered by the xda community will just be icing on the cake.

Thanks OP for reposting this thread.

Ah, your comment got me excited there.
On another topic, if anyone here hasn't seen the Notion Addicts forums you should head over there. Basically a community of people all waiting for this product created by the Notion Ink company. The forum was announced mid November and already has over 1100 active users and 3000 posts. Not bad at all.

i originally pre ordered the 101 then cancelled because i really had no clue when i would get it because the date kept getting changed. i then bought the g tablet and while out of the box it was bad, i had fun hacking on it. in the end i just wasn't satisfied with it either so i returned it. now i am hoping the adam will be the tablet that i am searching for,hopefully it will be the one(for about a year or until something else catches my attention)
I am very excited about this tablet! Wanted one before iPad was announced. They have taken their time getting it out (still not out but soon....) so hopefully it will be worth the wait! They worked very hard on writing good tablet software on top of Android so they can really compete with iPad. I can't wait to see what they came up with!
I support having a group for it for sure!

Samsung GalaxySII models for AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint break cover

First off I feel this warranted a new thread altho we have some very similar.
But this provides more solid info that what I saw we currently have.
Merge if needed.

So while we reported yesterday that the Samsung Galaxy S II won’t be heading to Verizon, the silver lining comes in the fact that the three other major wireless carriers will indeed be getting their own models. So, the big question regarding whether or not Samsung would take the previous path in releasing these new models, in creating different looking devices for each carrier has been the question since the beginning. Thanks to Pocketnow, we can finally say that we (may) know what the handsets will look like.
There isn’t a lot of information going around here. In fact, where the above image came from is anyone’s guess. And because of that, we may want to take the above leak with the normal amount of salt on hand. We’re not sure if these are the final devices for each carrier, but we imagine that it’s certainly possible. So stay tuned, as Samsung’s event is just around the corner and we’ll have all the details we could ever want (hopefully).

Sprint usually keeps the premium phones around the $199 mark, so I wouldn't expect this to be any different. No price has been announced, but I would expect that price point, but certainly nothing higher than $249.
Me personally, I'm waiting for details on the Nexus Prime to do anything. By then, the Epic will have GB and other goodies to go with it, and the SGS2 will already have ROMs etc associated with it. I have to rely on my phone quite a bit for business, so I'm not too eager to be an early adopter. I want to ensure all the small kinks and quirks with the SGS2 are worked out before I jump on it.
Nice to see confirmation of the design in the previously-shown pic that we assumed was Sprint. Looks like a solid design. I'm going to have a real problem deciding between this and waiting for a Sprint Nexus Prime variant.
Also, thanks for citing your source instead of merely ripping off an entire article as your own.
When the SGS1 EPIC came out it was $249 and then after the 2011 the price dropped. I hope they start out at $199 cause im just gonna add a 3rd line to my account to buy the SGS2 and give my son a phone! My wife will be taking my EPIC...

Anonymous source in linked article. I don't believe it until I see the system update light up. Sorry. First of many of these sort of "reports" I am sure.
Pocket lint has been pretty good in the past. They also reported about upcoming 3.1 update back in May (the same author):
http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/400...former-acer-iconia-a550-honeycomb-3-1-updates
So while I agree - that until I see notification popup on my device it's too early to celebrate - it's a good sign.
3.1 update and ICS are totally two different worlds. :/
Given the way ASUS has rolled regarding updates I would expect that once Google releases Honeycomb for tablets (remember they didnt even mention the Xoom) we will only be a couple of months behind.
I still won't be updating till Roach has had a chance to optimize ICS for us.
Tablet UI already built in ICS so it should be that hard for ASUS
http://androidapproved.com/item/ice-cream-sandwich-confirmed-to-have-a-tablet-interface/
As some people said before: looking at how frequently ASUS has updated the Transformer and has reacted very good to user input (selectable trackpad scroll direction and mouse pointer look as one example) and given the fact that the Transformer was the best selling Android tablet in 2011, I'm very confident, not to say 99% sure, that ASUS will update his first flagship tablet to ICS and will keep it updated for a year at minimum.
They know they established themselves some good reputation with their update politics and they won't risk to lose that again.
ASUS, you rule! thank you, thank you!
In the Android tablet market you have only three choices. You either lead, follow, or get out of the way. Asus is the front runner. I'm looking forward to ICS on my Transformer.

While the article is titled "Transformer to be first" with ICS, nowhere in the article does it say the Transformer will indeed be the first tablet to get ICS. It seems more like "Asus is the first manufacturer to say its tablet will get ICS" which doesn't really amount to much info.

Sounds like something Billy Madison would say.

I honestly don't care too much for ICS, so when it comes out it comes out. But with their speedy updates, I wouldn't be surprised if we get it before the year ends.

lol i think they made a mistake there. should be 2014.
On a more serious note, I think the support for ASUS is much better than Samsung. I traded my SGT 7 + $100 cash for a transformer. SGT 7 was such a heavily marketed flagship device and yet there's no support for ICS. Really ridiculous. Luckily the SGT 7 has great devs but still, lots of work have to be done by them in order for ICS to work on SGT 7.

We really need more threads with no news.
Feb/March can still mean tomorrow.
It will be here when it does.
Asus (and other manufacturers) will probably eventually learn to not make any promises whatsoever. Then any updates will just be a surprise.
I have a TF101 and I really don't feel Asus is required to provide me with an ICS update. I hope they do, but I can hardly make demands based on random Facebook/Twitter/forum posts.
this is funny and clische why are they even posting release dates ? If you dont know, why post IT?
Seriously? You need to post another topic on this? Terrible..
Sigh.... Worst PR department ever.
Asus isn't doing a very good job of making me want to be a return customer...
When is that Google branded Next Gen tab coming out again?
Words can't describe how much I don't care about ICS on my TF.
Think of this from a marketing angle: If Asus releases ICS simultaneously for TF101 and TF201 they will sell way less TF201s. Of course they stretch it as far as possible.
Ironically I have ICS on my ancient HTC Hero. My LG Optimus 3D isn't getting ICS until Q3 2012. LG doesn't even fix a bug that makes the phone miss a lot of calls and SMSes.
You think Asus customer service sucks? try LG!
ICS for my ancient LG Swift is ready for me to install thanks to the folks that make CM7. I only have to find time to install it. I think I won't wait for ICS on TF101 by Asus too.

I care about ICS because i heard some saying it increases much the responsiveness and general performance for the TF101, and I really want to make my new TF101 better.
Samsung is pretty bad with updates. Asus is doing good. Samsung/att just released gingerbread to the infuse 4g about two weeks ago. It was buggy and made the touch screen unresponsive. I went back to froyo.

I didn't complain, but this isn't the first time they've delayed their self-announced updates. The first time... sure delays happen... but again? Screw them. They should hire paul Burton, he got ics working for us. It ain't perfect, but its leaps and bounds better than what Asus gave us by the end of 2011 as they promised.
