Unhappy [Q] Please help me with missing update

I got my Transformer yesterday, and I'm still discovering all its features.

But I'm having a little problem...
My unit when I turned it on for the first time was missing some apps, like MyDesktop.

Also, I was experiencing some issued which I believe were fixed, like MyNet being in Spanish instead of English (I'm Italian but I use English on all my systems)

I thought it wasn't fully updated, went to Settings->About Tablet->System Update, and checked for updates.

The result was (and still is) "There is no update currently available for your device"

Any ideas?

Hi, I have been trying to update my Transformer for the past couple of days with the same results, no update found I can only think that either the server is busy or the update has been removed temporarily.

Thanks, Neil.
Knowing that I'm not the only one having this issue at least calms a bit the fear that something isn't working on my side.

Let's hope we manage to update as soon as possible - I'd really like to check the new stuff

Yup, cleared the cache for all the apps, rebooted, and... same result.

I haven't done a complete restore to factory settings yet, but yesterday I tried the update as soon as I turned the thing on, before installing anything, so that should be as close to factory settings as possible.

Actually, I'm a bit scared about rooting the device. I know I won't install alternative OS's and I'll never tamper with the system innards, so rooting is not really a priority for me.

Meanwhile, I've also dropped a note to Asus support, let's see if they can shed some light...
