There is a thread about this already. It has a listings of all the USB cables that would extend it.
I personally use the one from Monoprice linked in that thread and it works without any problems. I don't see why that cable wouldn't work though.
Akasa Works
Akasa cable £5.87 from ebay.co.uk works
yes you need usb 3.0, i got one from monoprice works perfect

After searching for months and trying a few cables that only allowed me to charge but not sych...I have finally found a cable that works fully! (thanks to the help from TraumaX)
Its available from Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B000KRJQ08/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new
I bought it from Base for only £2
Update...
Having purchased this cable from Base via Amazon (link above) the cable works perfectly. However the next 2 cables I purchased from them (on separate occasions) have all been different to each other and the latter two only charge but don't synch
So I guess the company has a huge stock range and don't use the same supplier/manufacturer. I have tried to request the original cable but they didn't comply. The only plus is they give a full refund.
Have just ordered again, lets see which cable I get this time...
I purchased this cable from base a week ago and it arrived today.It works perfectly for me as it both syncs and charges.The looks of the cable are not the same as the image provided on amazon but it does its job perfectly.
Just my peace of info on this as many people seem to have trouble finding a good cable.
Yeah my next cable works perfectly fine too
I have tried 3 different brands of USB 2.0 cables and come to the conclusion that only true USB 3.0 would work with the TF (though I would LOVE to be proven wrong).
Where are people getting their extension cables? I refuse to believe that people are living with this horribly short charging cable. It doesn't even reach from my outlet to my desk without an extension cord.
Normally I buy cables like this from Monoprice or DealExtreme or dollar stores, but in this case i would rather find one that someone knows works. I have checked in The Source and Future Shop and could not find any USB 3.0 extension cables.
There is a thread about it called "Short Cable".
Some have bought from amazon.com. Some from Monoprice.
Since I'm in Canada as well, I saw some at Canada Computers and are $10 for 3ft and 13 for 6ft.
I'm taking a chance with Dealextreme for $5.80.
extension cable
i bought mine at Tiger direct store in toronton.

Good to know, might get that one.
Bought the 6 ft at Canada Computers ican brand and it works for me.
I ordered one from Dealextreme so I'll let you know if that works as well.
I wish they come in black.
I ended up ordering one from monoprice... I'll report back after getting it.
I'd like to get an additional USB cable for connecting my Transformer Prime to my PC because I need it for debugging my apps, and I'm getting tired of swapping it back and forth to connect it to the charger brick.
Are these cables commercially available anywhere? Is it the same cable that was used on the original Transformer (which I know nothing about)?
Ebay + Prime USB Cable = Simples
Amazon has it.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006N3L5SE/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details
I think the product code as SUBAD003600 and they are about $15-20 plus delivery
On eBay UK they are about $11 (ref #280794053901) and eBay USA about $12 (ref #320851673796), both from China, including delivery.

I got this one and it works great. Charges and transfers data just fine.
Thanks all. I just wanted to confirm that it's the same as for a TF101, which apparently it is according to the Amazon listing.
Hey guys,
I just want to share:
http://www.shopping.hp.com/can/touchpad/categories/power/1/accessories
It works nice on our Note
Btw, I suggest you check out with Paypal right away. Don't register or login, just check out with paypal. The site is being hammered and it is very hard to order.
*The usb micro usb cable itself at $4.99 is already a nice deal, imagine it with a 2amp charger
GL!
I already have 3 but thanks

What I got was an HP branded charger without the cable. I don't know if the HP branding was a fluke or not. The HP Touchpad chargers work great with the note (with this one, I have 5 now).
Hello,
I have patched my original tf300t charge/data cable too many times and need a new one. I have been eyeballing the longer cords like 10ft and 6.5ft on amazon and eBay. Has anyone bought one and liked it? Can you give me the link? Does it charge quickly? Thicker then original?
Thanks!
Instead of buying a 'rare' cable (custom Asus connector + long non-standard size) I would get a cheap replacement cable for the tf300t and a regular USB3 extension cable.
I got one here, standard size, haven't had any issues.

Thank you! Mine's just about to give up the ghost!
Had issues with the cheap ones from china. Bought a PWR+ 6 ft wall plug and it works great. I did find some official Asus cables on ebay that were super cheap and worked flawlessly. I know this is late to the party, but never hurts to update.
Here is the wall unit I bought

I have had it for 3 months now without issues
