Highly unlikely imo but you never know. We are approaching the 18 month point that marks the end of official support.
But I think we're just coming up on 12 months, no? Wasn't this device released in November of 2013?

But yes, given the way Asus supported my original TF101, I wouldn't hold my breath on them updating it to L....

September 2013 (I thought it was August but I bought mine in Sep)

So that means soon we will be in month 14.

I feel like Asus abandoned us

I've been holding off putting a third party ROM on my TF701T as Asus had been good about updating other tablets. But I feel like their crappy docking hinge caused lower sales which makes them care very little about this particular product. My guess is we aren't going to see Lollipop officially. Good things there is active development going on.

He (pershoot) has said it a couple of times in his CM thread that he was going to make a lollipop rom, but it was a while ago, and I assume most people forgot about it or something.

I just got two updates in the last to days. They usually put out updates before they do a major upgrade like lollipop so I take this as a hopeful sign.

I guess he means two ASUS app updates. I got them too, think it was Contacts and Browser.
No, these weren't just app updates they were system updates. Got to watch the android dude a little bit both times. After the first my background changed after the second the pulldown changed. Still on 4.4.2

While I was in contact with ASUS support I asked about Android L to the TF701T. First they said that they had no info, but later I got a reply, where they said that the had contacted the RD-department and that ASUS have no plans on releasing Android L for the TF701T.

We can onlu hope that this info is incorrect or ASUS change their minds. They havn'nt made any offical statement at all regaring Android L to tablets, have they?

It doesn't surprise me as we are approaching 2 years. ASUS don't really release updates beyond 18 months. All their latest transformers seem to be using Intel chips for Android as well. :(
