Hi all,


Just thought I'd come and introduce myself to this part of the forum :)
I just ordered a prime... I currently have a good old trusty Motorola Xoom which was starting to get to me because of the weight and thickness.
I was going to go for an Infinity but it's out of my price range. Looking forward to getting my hands on the Prime and rooting it... currently have my Xoom rooted and running EOS jelly bean.

What? why? you just shot yourself in the foot. People are selling and exchanging primes left and right. Be prepared to spend good chunk of time on troubleshooting. Best of luck and hope u have a functional unit (if such a prime exists)

Welcome to the tfp section! I hope you enjoy your prime as i have mine. Don't get twisted over all the negative stuff here. there are some people that seem to have issues but there are many that are very happy with it. Zero problems for me. I hope your experience is as good as mine.

Maybe people are negative because they are fed up with all the issues with a $500 device. Maybe the new ones are better since asus had us (the early users) to beta test it for 10 months.

Another happy Prime owner.

I have had my tfp since May and I never regretted my decision to buy it.
Running AndroWook since first release, currently on 1.2.

I thought the Prime was slightly better than the TF300, brighter screen better clocking speeds? I've read some negative things about it but also some good things... now I am really stuck and unsure which one to get :(

Well I've cancelled my order, going to take a trip to town today and have another look at both.

Welcome aboard. Try and ignore all the negative comments. It's the same with any device - you only hear the people that have issues because most that have no issues don't seek out forums for help. I have had one or two problems but for me the good outweighed the bad and now with JB the Prime is even better. I would have my Prime with keyboard dock over any other tablet out there as it looks and feels great and does everything I want it to do and more.

When you get yours, set up your gmail and wireless, check for and download the update and let the Prime do it's thing, then do a reset so the system is fresh and then install you apps and enjoy. Hopefully you will have a good experience and enjoy your Prime as much as many others do :)
