Default questions about rooting?

I just brought this in Hk, and i installed the adb drivers etc and tried to use the all in one tool to root, it tells me that my device is currently unrootable?

i've done nothing to the tablet
its running
android version 3.2
kernal version 2.6.36.3
build number 1.10.001100029

i thought that it could be rooted? or am i wrong?

in the kernel version, is it also written kernel10? if so, you may have to upgrade to a newer version of honeycomb. Or you can pre-root the ics version and install that. Dont upgrade to ics through the tablet!!!!

maybe you need update to 3.2.1 first
DON'T use OTA,it will up ics witch is not root-able
down load 3.2.1 hk rom to sd card,update in recover mode
