I was almost going to buy tf1 and saw on the net and realized tf2 is only a few Weeks away.
Sent from my LG-P920 using Tapatalk
The announcment is a few weeks away. Nvidia did not even announced Kal-EL officially.
Which means at best i will be able to buy the TF2 next year q1/q2.
That's a pretty bad assumption. They haven't announced it. It will be at least a couple of weeks after an announcement. You can also factor in delays and such. I seriously doubt a release will be this year.
As far as I can tell, no company has even hinted at a Kal-El device for the near future.
And there will be delays... from both Nvidia and Asus. I'd be a bit surprised if they had released something before February.

Why in the world would you believe "some websites"?
The tegra 3 hasn't even been released yet. They've dropped hints here and there to keep their investors. But that is it. And based on history, these kinds of products are due for delays.
And don't expect the price of the TF 1 to drop. The TF2 will be $100 more.
I don't understand why people think the TF2 can come out in a couple weeks. Here's a breakdown of what's going to happen.
Nvidia has to actually release the chip. Asus engineers have to integrate it into their systems. There will undoubtedly be hardware and software bugs. They'll have to stamp out those bugs, or at least enough of the bugs for the system to be stable. Then they'd have to rush these new specs out to production.
You're looking at at least 6 months.
I learn from history. I first heard about a transformer-like device from asus in mid 2010. Just groundless rumors saying asus would "soon" come out with a powerful tablet that is different than any other tablets (keyboard dock hint hint). I waited and waited and waited... Then a year later, the TF finally came out. By that time, I had bought the a500.
So, again, what person in his right mind would think the TF 2 will come out in a couple weeks? I don't get it. Who started this ridiculous rumor?
tegra 3 is already a finished product.

i'm still hoping that it will release by end of this year. I think they are getting pretty close. They would not have finalized the price so far in advance if it was not slated for release until next year.
the price has been finalized by the CEO of the company.

Yea it's gonna be a screamer...... site says it's runnng Android 2.3....progress
Maybe it's sooo advanced it's too good for even HC
G for Games Source information for The TF2 is from Droid Life we all know no "just Rumors" there,
Wait for the 25nm chips thats he next real screamers
Of course... they didn't get the whole "different" tablet thing correct either... Always Innovating had it first. I was going to get that tablet.. but it was so ugly. So glad Asus made it so much better.
Isn't the TF1 still selling really well? What's the rush to cannibalize the success of this tablet? And I very much doubt that the TF2 is really that close to being ready to release. I'm guessing no sooner than early Q2 next year honestly. Really, the hardware of the TF1 isn't really holding it back at this point, it's the lack of a lot of good apps/games/etc IMHO. I just hope that other companies see the success of the true docking keyboard form factor so there will be other choices and a continued segement of the tab market that the TF101 currently holds all to itself. I really don't need a tab without the keyboard - it is MUCH easier to use as my laptop replacment with the tab docked. Also a big advantage to double the battery life with the dock.... anyway, I am digressing.... I call April 2012 for the TF2.
whats with all of this hate?
I would assume the best guess being October seeing as the CEO confirmed the Transformer 2 will NOT be delayed as previous speculation stated. This may push to November with the announcement of ICS being pushed back. We'll have to wait and see. I just purchased a Transformer a week ago and am returning it to wait for this beast.

What are you basing October/November on? Even if the CEO confirmed no delays, you have no idea what its general timeframe of release is. If X = expected release date and Y = delay, X - Y = Z (actual expected release date). You're somehow saying X - 0 = October/November, while providing no info that solves for X. Like I said in my last post, Q1 at the earliest, with April being my personal prediction.

TF1 was first shown in CES January 2011 but was really available in June/July. Wouldn't be suprised if TF2 has same schedule for 2012.
in response yto the OP's original question...no one knows for sure. It's anyones guess. if the history of the Tf1 means anything it will still be a while.Not that I doubt for a minuite they might try to rush some halfassed product out the door in time for Christmas sales. It's a business and that seems to be the norm in the computer and or mobile industry ...correction,,,all industries.

Can we type while video calling or use IM and video call at the same time? skype or gtalk or anything.

ok here you go buddy. It was a RUMOR that the transformer was to be released in october.
google Transformer 2 coming out in October you'll get dozens of other sites reporting the same thing.
Also, a report came out TODAY saying that the trasnformer 2 was slated for a november 7th release date according to a UK retailer.(READ LINK FROM POST ABOVE)
I cant post links because i need atleast 8 posts to post URLs
How many fingers are going to point to this date? April? I'd put my money on november 7th. Much more logical then to trust some random kid on a forum going "ya i think its april"
Edit: i know that it is a RUMOR that it was supposed to be released in October but think about it. Why would the CEO make claims that the transformer 2 would not be delayed if their wasnt a "general timeframe"

Anyone knows what happened to the 370t? Asus hyped it a little more than a month ago and it has gone MIA. There's no more info or news of it since early January. I and many others where interested on it but seems like ASUS choose the HTC way and has announced 7 tablets and 3 phones in a month!
All I keep hearing is the specs of the device and a quarter 2 of this year release. I'm really eager to get more information about it too. In fact, a Google Alert sent me right to this thread, haha.
I was disappointed that they didn't announce anything about this device in MWC
yea im wondering when this is going to come out.
They can give us some info any time now. Passing up on a Thrive today on 1saleaday to wait on the 370T.

Got the same alert set with the same result.
Couldn't keep waiting, so I bought one of the Buy.com refurb HTC Flyers. A very nice device, but if that Memo proves not to be vaporware with those specs at that price, the Flyer is going straight on ebay.
yea, i didn't get the "urge" to get a tablet until I heard about the MeMo 370t
The price is right
The power is right
The size is what I was looking for
Hopefully they keep us occupied with something.

Haha no Google Alerts today, bummer. I'm in the same boat as you. I bought a Nook Tablet last month. Hopefully it will hold me off until the Memo comes out, preferably before June!
EDIT: Scratch that, just received a couple alerts. I've learned that it will be released in India during the month of May and that it will NOT be released in the European market. Neither of these pertain to me, but still good information.
Just more rumors but makes some sense!

Yeah I'm waiting for the Asus Memo 370t too. It feels like it's taking forever. I pasted up on getting a samsung galaxy tab 7.0 plus back in january to wait for the memo 370t. Now I'm starting to regret it. I don't want to wait another three months. I need a high performance tablet now.
Just heard the Tegra 3 Asus Memo 370t is being scrapped. It's being replaced altogether by Google's new Nexus tablet. At least it's still being made by Asus...
Source: http://androidcommunity.com/insider...ancelled-rebranded-the-nexus-tablet-20120316/
I'm also confused. I've read it's still on the table, others that not.
Damn, I really wanted this tablet.
Now I don't know if I should get a KFire and have it with CM7 or get a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 instead... I can't wait longer
The guy here still seems to think the 370T is being released in India. I'm not sure if even that's true or not. All I do know is that the has been no word on a US release.
http://androidtipsandtricks4u.blogspot.com/2012/05/asus-memo-tablet-370t.html
On the bright side, there's been no news on the Nexus Tablet either, so I guess it might still be possible. I hope.
More rumors now that Google is sticking with Samsung for its Nexus Tablet, instead of Asus. If this is true, it could be good news for the MeMo 370T hopefuls out there! These rumors are driving me insane though.

And I thought I got one hell of a deal when I bought mines 1/2 price on ebay! I would assume that the 'New' Nexus Q will come with a UI/Google TV perhaps... hopefully this will be something that current Nexus Q 'preview' owners will have a chance to move over our current device.
If you take a look at the email, Google said something to effect of,
We have an important update about your Nexus Q pre-order.
When we announced Nexus Q at Google I/O, we gave away devices to attendees for an early preview. The industrial design and hardware were met with great enthusiasm. We also heard initial feedback from users that they want Nexus Q to do even more than it does today. In response, we have decided to postpone the consumer launch of Nexus Q while we work on making it even better.
To thank you for your early interest, we'd like to extend the Nexus Q preview to our pre-order customers and send you a free device. If you had other items in your order, your credit card will be charged for those items only.
Your Nexus Q will be on its way soon and you will receive a notification and tracking number from Google Play when it ships.

Notice the part where it says, "The industrial design and hardware were met with great enthusiasm"? To me that's saying that the hardware is staying the same, but all of their changes will be software based. If the hardware is the same, there's no reason that current owners wouldn't be able to update.
I got burned major, purchased two on ebay for $600 and CANCELED my preorders.....
I called them today to see if they would re-instate my preorders, and they said no.....
Got the logitech google tv free a few years ago..
but this just hurts...
I believe pre-orders could only be made by US residents so far right?
According to engadget those orders began shipping today. Whatever improvements they made should be apparent by the time those devices arrive to the people who ordered them (3 days generally)

Im wondering how they will send out an update to the Nexus Q's that rolled out before the "improvements" this thing certainly doesn't seem to have software for OTA updates built in, i guess it will be posted officially from google?
Good job Google. Bought one on eBay and not worth it at all. Thinking on selling it the apple TV does way to much more and I HATE apple products too.

I really like this tablet (all but the light bleed and the lack of a good charger, with the latter being not really a big deal) and am still planning on getting one as soon as they're back in stock next year IF the light bleed is fixed in the next batch. But, after seeing the news yesterday.about the Motorola/Google Flagship X devices (Phone and subsequent tablet), I'm really tempted to wait for that tablet seeing as it will also be a Nexus device and have Motorola's awesome build quality (After my first Nokia brick phone way back in the day, every device I owned after was Motorola, and I love their build quality.) I know for sure I'll get the phone since my 2 year will probably be up on my Nexus by that time, but I may also wait for that tablet.
Anyone else who's been waiting to buy the N10 feeling the desire to wait it out a bit longer?
I do, but not because of the x tablet, I am not a big fan of Motorola so. But I think I will wait until CES 2013 and see if there's anything worth waiting for, if not I'm not even sure about Nexus 10 anymore, Samsung's Note 10.1 seems like a better choice somehow.

I'm not completely unimpressed with Samsung's build quality, and I love my Galaxy Nexus, but I just like Motorola's better.
I'm also hoping to see something that excites me at CES, but I won't have anything but a Nexus device. I want something that I know developers will be paying attention to and not some off the wall device that might get one or two custom ROMs.

I understand, I've used Motorola several years ago before the smartphone era and they were some really good phones, but there's no other brand I would prefer but Samsung when it comes to phones, and I'm leaning that way for the tablets as well.
And totally, I'm actually looking forward to see Samsung's new announcement which it's most likely going to be a reveal for S 4, but still I'll wait to see if it isn't a new tablet that could be worth waiting for. And that Samsung Note 10.1 is really tempting me lol.

Who knows when it will actually be released, much less if the rumor is true. I'm sure good things will come from Motorola eventually but probably not for another year. If Motorola comes out with a mind bogglingly good tablet then I'll sell the Nexus 10 and grab it...I'm not going to hold my breath though.
Honestly, I can put up with the Nexus 10 not being perfect because its a Nexus device and I can build the OS from source, I know it will be supported for a good while, and its damned fast for browsing.
I've had 4 different tablets in the last year or so...none of them were perfect.

Two variables:

The challenge in waiting for "_________" is that by the time it hits the market there's already been a leak about the better "__________" that may be on the horizon (which we know moves). Asus announced the TF700 in January 2012 and it wasn't available for purchase until July. Samsung announced the Note 10.1 in February 2012, redesigned it after it was shown, and it launched in August. The N10 cleared the FCC in August and just recently was made available for purchase. Moral of the story: buy what you like now, take good care of it so you can resell it for a decent price, and buy what's "new" when it's at least up for pre-order. When leaks come out about products in development with nothing but design direction there's usually a long wait until they actually hit the market (EG: whatever Motorola's theorizing). When you start to see component leaks and shots by Mr. Blurry Cam that means it's closer but can still mean months.
I might depending what its like but im not a fan of Motorola so i doubt it will be something attractive.
From what I've read, the X devices are not part of the Nexus brand, they're 100% Motorola. Don't expect stock Android and direct updates from Google- or, well, now that Moto is part of Google, I mean direct updates from the Android team.
Nope... because every article States the thing silk probably not be out for a year or two. Wonder if x though is like nexus. The x is the prominent letter and even the bout animation logo. I've been waiting for Google to do something with Motorola for awhile. Google could rectify their horrible business plan easy. Now that Samsung is owning the market with android products and has made Asus a tablet leader outside Apple, I think it is now safe for them to throw their own subsidiary a bone and make a nice Google Motorola device. Might be to late on the end though.

This. Ask any owner of an Atrix (myself), Photon or Electrify. They'll tell you just how great #motofail is in terms of software updates. You get ONE. Better hope your device ships with the latest version of the OS, because otherwise you just get bumped to the next major revision instead of anything near what is considered current and suddenly you're screwed, even if they promise you otherwise. The lack of proper kernel source means custom roms are unlikely to completely save you as well.
Still planning on getting my N10 in early January. If a more reputable company like Samsung were to announce something like the rumored X, I'd wait. But @#$%^ no for Motofail.

Anyone who tries to stay on the bleeding edge of a rapidly moving technology will be in this situation perpetually. Something better is always on the horizon. At some point you have to pull the trigger, even though something better has been announced, and may or may not be right around the corner. I tend to be an early adopter of generational improvements (A15 and super high res screen in the N10). There will be better devices in this category, but by the time you wait for the "perfect" device, the next generational improvement will be right around the corner. Until you accept this reality, you'll always have buyers remorse.
I wouldn't touch motorola with a 10 foot pole after the crappy end of life support debacle like the atrix 4g. This might be an exception since google will back it up. Never again Motorola!!!!
Per WSJ, X tablet will be after X phone, so it'll be a while.
The more interesting bit was that Viewdle (face-rec) should be incorporated, so we should see some aspect of AR in 5.0 release. Niche uses aside, AR hasn't had any wide application in an OS. AR would be Glass' main ace.
Though, I think 5.0's over-arching theme will be TV integration. Apple is making noises, and MS will intro X720. Goog can't afford to fall behind. Miracast should play a large part, not only to leverage TVs as big displays, but for tabs to act as 2nd screen.
Frankly, tablet hardware bores me now. It's MOTS. What's interesting are wearables, and Glass is supposed to make its debut in 2013. You can bet that both MS and Apple are burning the midnight oil on their own skunkwork response.
Depending on how versatile wearables (eye-top?) will be, the tablet may hit the skids as quickly as it got on. I'm thinking 2013 for the coming-out, and one or two years for the first retail product.
I personally will wait for a Nexus device with Miracast. I really hope the N10 will get Miracast after all...
It's either the Nexus 10 for me or a Quad core A15 / Nvidia tegra 4 tablet. Hope they get announced at CES/MWC
I don't do enough gaming to need a beefed-up graphics chip in the SoC in my tablet, so for me the Nexus 10 works fine. I'm a graduate student, so much of what I do is just reading PDFs, books, and magazines. I listen to music and watch YouTube, neither of which will be necessarily improved with a faster SoC. The screen on my Nexus 10 is brilliant and I couldn't be happier with what this tablet does for my needs. Plus, Samsung > Motorola. I know I may be in the minority here, but this thing is a Nexus, and it's made by Samsung, two things that I look for in a device.
Is Google and Samsung "cooking" a new version of Nexus 10 ? And if the rumors are true,the new tablet will be equipped with Exynos 5 quad-core and 8 core GPU Mali T-678 ? And if the rumors are true when will be available to buy ? I don't wanna to hurry and buy now the Nexus 10 with dual-core Exynos.....But deserve to wait for Nexus with quad core Exynos ?

This might be the 10th XDA thread started in the past week regarding this subject.
It's all rumors and speculation with no reliable confirmation. If there is a grain of truth to any of it, it won't mean anything to us now. More likely than not it's a device that won't be released until next fall. Those with more knowledge of these things than most of us have suggested it's a device that'll be announced at MWC, get shown off at Google I/O, and be released for the back-to-school or holiday shopping season next fall.

So tell me if this is plausible..?
• Google leaked the Nexus 5 @ the Play Store on Oct. 18th then released the device on Oct. 31st thats 14 days from leak to launch.
• Google "SUPPOSEDLY" leaked the Nexus 10 2nd Gen @ the Play Store on Oct. 28th if you count 14 days from the leak that would be a launch date of Nov. 10th....
It makes sense in Googleese.. What do you guys think..?
Nov. 10, 2013...?
The Nexus 10 leak has already been proven to be a fake. Look up the original PhoneArena article.

Well it was a good theory while it lasted.. lol, Thanks for the word.. Ill look that up..
tired of waiting
Such waiting is killing me
It seems that people care less about n10 than n5 so there isn't much leaks recently.
I'd rather they fix my constantly rebooting current gen Nexus 10.

I sold mine because of that a while ago..
I just don't understand what is so hard about posting a "tenative release timeline" or if there will ever be another pure google nexus 10" tablet. I originally purchased my first ever android device "SGS3" due to apple being so secretive about the 4s release date and tired of waiting for the next best thing. Well I feel Nexus google is doing the same thing now...so I went back to the dark side for a tablet and purchased the Ipad air 124g version. To keep things in balance on Oct 31 I ordered a Nexus 5 to replace my NoteII !
To sum it up I think google nexus would be well served as to not being so secretive about release dates.....but it is a fine line between the secretiveness and building something up and keep backing up release dates and /or release just a few with very limited supply(AKA some graphic cards for years past).
The rebooting issue happens because of chrome, just don't use chrome and you'll be golden (and frankly mobile chrome is really ****ty, it sucks in every possible way on both iOS and Android)
I doubt they'll release the next N10 any time soon, I'm starting to see the event with the 2014 N7 as a likely date for both tablets.

Why would they post a release timeline for a device that technically doesn't even exist.

How hard would it be to answer the rumors floating around the net? You know squash the rumors? A canned response like .... At this time we have no timeline and we are not working on a replacement of the nexus 10?

Yeah I was thinking the same thing but hate beating the dead horse. Some don't like to hear the truth and love to argue.:good:
My point was that they love the rumors spreading around their products, it keeps them in the news. This discussion is a great example. They'll plant the rumours if no one else does. They want people to talk and speculate about their tablet and not the newest tablet from someone else.
Why should they announce the actual release date ahead of time? If it's far away, people who need a tablet soon will buy someone else's tablet. Doesn't Apple do the same thing? I'm sure their marketing dept know exactly what they're doing.

The hype and the anxious of waiting for a new product is what makes the google product sell so well

So it might not even exist? I'm getting so tired of waiting I think I should've bought the Nexus 10 a couple of months ago. And as much as I hate Samsung, the note 10.1 2014 does look nice. PLEASE Google, don't mame me buy a Sammy. Release the Nexus 10 2 NOW!

With all the discounted Nexus 10's out there now, I hope something worthwhile is coming! I feel like I got burned buying my GNex last August, a month and a half before the Nexus 4 came out, I am forcing myself to not fall into the same trap again!
I don't think we'll get another nexus 10 until at least middle of next year. Maybe released when we get the next major android update (version 5).
The nexus 10 was quite an investment for buyers. I for one don't plan on shelling out for one for at least another year. If you keep churning out an expensive luxury item at short intervals (big tablets are not massively essential purchases for most people), then you are reducing your potential for repeat sales, whilst pissing some people off who have bought the previous model a bit later before realising a new one was being released so soon.
Only people who have money to burn are going to shell out for a new big tablet every year unless there's a major issue with their current one. And nowadays there are fewer and fewer of those people about due to the financial crisis and job markets.
It's much easier to justify with a cheap product like the nexus 7 for a greater number of people. I essentially bought my nexus 10 to replace my laptop in most functions. I still keep my laptop for updating/rooting my devices and for the very few things that i can't do on my tab but my laptop is 4 years old now and is hardly used. I have a NAS drive that has all my media stored on that can be accessed directly from my nexus/phone and whatever else. For me, this is a keeper for at least another year.

Take advantage if you can find a really cheap one to tide you over! If you buy a used one you won't take much of a hit when the next one does eventually arrive and you re-sell.

And now google is disabling the translucent menu bars in 4.4 on the current generation Nexus 10 because the current Nexus 10 can't render them properly. What the.!? All the more reason for the Gen 2 to be leaked/announced/released now. I wouldn't buy the current version..

I totally agree. I am desperate for there to be a Nexus 10 2nd generation. I'm using a first generation Nexus 7 & it is fab BUT at 16GBs it is way to low in storage (yes I DO need each & every one of those apps & games installed) & I'm desperate for a bigger screen.
What do people think the chances of them giving us a 64GB version N10 2 at release? Assuming of course that they even give us a Nexus 10 2 Generation.
