Just preordered the 64 gig from NCIX, hope it's released soon! It looks 100x easier to lug around than my Dell xps laptop

!MiKrofT 11-29-2011 12:12 PM

Depends on the task at hand. I'll still own both but will bring one or the other out depending on needs.

Not quite a laptop... its missing optical drives and extra USB ports but I think this will be on-par or even out perform a lot of netbooks on the market.

Most local places are sold out of pre-orders I think. Memory Express might still have some slots available.

Sample of 1080p capture on the Prime:


LuHua 11-29-2011 08:34 PM

I'd say in terms of pure computing power, it should be better than most cheaper netbooks on the market. That said, it's apples to oranges, they're both for different purposes (and this is running on Android, not Windows 7 and etc.) Here's hoping anyways...

$499 for 32GB model, $599 for 64GB, $149 for the keyboard dock.

JKam 11-30-2011 12:07 PM

I wish the old keyboard dock would work for the Prime... :(

Jayboogz 11-30-2011 02:05 PM

Apparently there will be NO champagne nor 64gb primes for Canada. Not until next year. Some ppl have been getting emails from ME stating that Asus had contacted them. Hope no one here was looking for the champagne one.

One other thing. The stereo speakers... are on the right side under 1 grill. For those that really care about the audio this may bug you.

LuHua 12-02-2011 05:35 PM

That's not "stereo" then -.-. And damnit, I ordered a 64GB from NCIX, hope that's just a rumour.

kkttsang 12-02-2011 06:37 PM

Do you guys think they will have enough stock that i can just go to the store to get it when it comes out, or will it be like the ipad and iphones?

twitchyzero 12-02-2011 07:00 PM

wow crazy..didnt think pre-orders are selling out.
would 1st gen docks work with the prime?

!MiKrofT 12-02-2011 07:06 PM

1st Gen docks don't work cause it had to be redesigned to match the shape of the prime.

Chances of going into the store and buying this is slim. It'll be like last year. Shortage. Amazon.com is cancelling preorders cause asus was only able to supply 1/2 their order.
