I'd consider it if it wasn't for the two small boys. Regardless, it is a pretty ingenious design. Still, I wouldn't be comfortable without their being additional protection from something like Skinomi's screen and body protector films.

I've been waiting for this to show up on Amazon's US site, or another major US distributor. Not sure I want to order the thing from Germany, as I have a feeling that by the time that it gets shipped from the German Amazon, it will have shown up elsewhere and I'd be able to get faster/cheaper shipping.

That's only if Asus fixed the charging issues with the dock. With the TF101, it is not really a good idea to keep the thing docked all the time as you'll drain the dock's battery and could possibly damage it. On the TF101, it is better to only have the keyboard plugged in when you are using the keyboard or the tablet is very low on battery, but the dock is charged.

I think that it's up in the air right now in terms of whether it will be a good idea to store the TF201 docked.

the dock will charge the pad only to about 90% then wait until it drops to about 70.
So I guess that won't be a problem

The dock sucking the battery from the tablet was fix by Asus in an update, Iknow, I had it.
Yes the battery on the dock is still leaking (I have an early model, they could fix it if I send it back to them but it doesn't bother me that much) but it doesn't drain power from the tablet anymore.
And I'm pretty sure those issues aren't there at all in the Prime.

Remember that german prices are always presented including the tax. Thats often handled differently in the US or other countries....
