Default [INFO] US 32 GB Asus Transformer Availability Tracking

So I'm creating this thread to track availability/delivery of the 32 GB version of the Asus Transformer. I pre-ordered the 32 GB version from Amazon 3 am CST on the 26th, and my order indicates the following.

"Delivery estimate: We need a little more time to provide you with a good estimate. We'll notify you via e-mail as soon as we have an estimated delivery date. You can cancel at any time."

I haven't heard of any 32 GB availability as of yet and thought it'd be good to see when people actually start getting their hands on these units. I've seen on sites like CDW an estimated availability of May 14th?

Please add any info, links or dates you've seen as to when the 32 GB Transformers might start shipping.

Same deal for me. I'm giving them two more weeks to ship, which I think is beyond a reasonable expectation for a model they say launched. If it doesn't come in by then I'll cancel and just wait for the newer tablets coming out in June/July.

I am in the same boat. Ordered from Amazon at 3AM EST. Keeping my fingers crossed that these exist and just didn't go out with the first batch. If I can just get it within a week or two I will be happy, three to four weeks I will be slightly disappointed at the wait, and anything longer I will probably move on to Samsung.

Yea I'm given it till May 13th or thereabouts to get it out. Hoping its just a matter of Asus actually delivering them to amazon/other retailers, similar to the dock at the current moment.

I'd maybe cancel and go to the tab if it has a price somewhere in the same ball park as the transformer. Any other tablets out there that will be coming out in June/July that would compare - samsungs is only one i know of at the moment unless there is some google/nexus tablet annouced at Google I/O.

Samsung, Google and Amazon are the ones I hear about. Of course only the Samsung is solid. Dell I suppose but they seem to be way behind the curve so far. Sony will probably be very late to market and overpriced, nothing new there!

Not many replies, could we be seeing a substantially lower demand for the 32gb?

Does this bode well for us? I mean if demand is low and Asus knows it they may focus on the 16gb and leave us hanging. Alternatively they may push out a bunch of 32gb in the knowledge they'll still move and do so at a more profitable point.

I pre ordered from BnH, but no idea shipping date. I have the Acer, but will most likely be trading that back in before the two weeks at BB. Honeycomb, at least on the Acer, has been a buggy experience. Would love the Acer if it had a 32GB model, but who knows how long until they even arrive from Asus, so who knows.

Also, don't buy a Samsung product like the tab, Samsung mobile products are over priced garbage the last few years. Just ask any honest Sprint salesman. Samsung's Q/A sucks and they have poor quality products'

I pre-ordered the 32gb on the 26th (12am for me) from Amazon. It would be nice to have it before my birthday, but I'm sure its not going to take that long.

me too. pre-ordered at TG initially and then Amazon (initially with Target and then subsequently via amazon directly). Have cancelled the Target-using-Amazon and TG. Hopefully this will arrive soon. Else am moving on. It might either be the Toshiba or Samsung.

That's my plan too. I pre-ordered the 32gb from J&R at 1:00pm on the 26th.

I sat and watched people buy the 16gb from newegg. I think I could have got one, but I wanted the 32gb. We'll see what happens.

I might call J&R tomorrow to see if they know anything (but I doubt they do.) From what I've read they seem to be the most honest of the stores selling this thing.

I will report back if I hear anything.
