Got mine. Nice enough shape in refurb box, and the accessories all look to be unopened and new.

One thing I didn't see was the headset mentioned... Is that in the Tab box itself? (Left my boxes at work.)

Only thing I'm not a huge fan of is it feels a bit sluggish compared to my Galaxy Note. Hoping the upcoming ICS update will help. Otherwise, I'm very impressed. The screen is nice, 8.9 might be the perfect size for me, the accessories are great and I freakin LOVE THAT IT DOCKS HORIZONTALLY. I wish everyone provided that option.

NM, tracking is available. Ships from Maumee, OH (near Toledo). I'm just like 90min from there, so hopefully I'll get it tomorrow (I didn't order till late in the afternoon yesterday).
Yea free shipping! I ordered it in the morning though. Really happy with the deal. All the accessories are brand new. Keyboard dock and leather case are the best ones. I don't see my self using the SD card reader or regular dock.

When I got mine, it was slow out of box on honeycomb 3.1. I upgraded to 3.2 and noticed a speed gain by a good margin. Try upgrading if you havent .

I ordered one as well but tracking is saying it won't be here until next wednesday…blah. I'm in AZ. Excited to get it though, I'm thinking 8.9 will be the perfect size.

Thanks! Yep, 3.2 did help... Just got ICS on my Note, hope the 8.9 update is released soon.

Still really happy with the 8.9. Great little device. The sleeve for the tablet is very nice and the keyboard dock is awesome!

Can't believe I got all of this for $300...

EDIT: And yep, the headset/headphones are under the little booklet in the box.

Bummer. Mine isn't scheduled to get here until Monday. Was hoping to get it today so I could play with it over the weekend.

Awesome that the accessories are all brand new. Quite the deal.
