Hallo,
der einzige Laden bei dem ich vorbestellen würde, ist Amazon. Wenn es um Reklamationen geht sind die einfach unschlagbar. Ich habe vor geraumer Zeit einen Archos Medienspieler eingeschickt und hatte nach einer Woche den kompletten Einkaufspreis von Amazon erstattet bekommen. Und das Gerät war zu diesem Zeitpunkt schon eineinhalb Jahre alt.
Gruß

Wow they really dropped the comments. Too many bad karma for them I guess.
I'm really unsure if I should still buy the tab anymore.
Asus seems not to reliable anymore to me.
Btw. a German site said it will be available after 19 Dec. But Asus wanted them to take off the date from their site.

I'm considering ordering mine from Amazon.de - as we don't seem to get the 64GB version anywhere in Denmark.
But how is the localization for the previous Transformer? Was it german only, or could you change the language as you usually can in Android?
Android always had some languages pre installed.
Guess dansk is one if them.
The keyboard layout is qwertz though, even in Germany!
And Amazon still has the release date after 24.
So guess you are probably better with a us or UK one if you do not care about the charging cable.

Cool, thanks for clearing that up for me. It's only the tablet I'm interrested in, so the keyboard is a non-issue for me.
But I'll take a look around other europe online shops for an earlier delivery. But until I find one, I'll be a bit more at ease with my amazon.de preorder

In order to replace the keyboard.apk, to be QWERTY, you'll need to root the device, or else you'll be stuck with the Deutsches pop-up keyboard too.
Oh? Also if using one of the Market alternatives? Like Swiftkey, etc?
I pre ordered from computer universe.net and still have no delivery date. I hope we don't have to wait till January.
Sent from me...
You can change the other keyboards layout, such as Swiftkey and Swype, to QWERTY.
Thanks guys.. I'll not worry about the qwerty/qwertz problem then
Asus Germany just confirmed on their Facebook that the prime will not come to stores before Christmas. (in Germany)
But they still expect an end December or early January release.
I do not know how to link there here on the phone sorry.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I'm from Switzerland and the store were i preordered (digitec.ch) sets mid January as release date. I'd say dont expect it any earlier in other european countries.
And chill out guys The thing will come when it comes. Pay some attention to your wife in the meantime she wont be getting much of you when the prime arrives
Asus Benelux and Asus Headquarters Taiwan both confirmed there will be no delay and the launch for the Netherlands is set at Januari 6th as mentioned earlier.

Has anyone already tried to write an email to hoh.de asking if they know when will they be getting them?
Well I did but looks like the guy answering mail doesn't know what asus prime is. Did any of you have better luck? If I get better answer, I will post it here.
Hello,

Hi
according this french website http://www.smartphonefrance.com/actu.asp?ID=4600 (after a call to the French HTC support) HTC will provide next week a rom upgrade with wifi and gps ....
Maybe????
Thi could be a great stuff!!! But I don't think so!!!! Couse Niki doesn't have those antenna inside!!!
I'll be so happy to be in wrong!!!!
Ciao
It wont happen because why would HTC release the nike without having WiFi or GPS working? Its just another rumour. I remember hearing some guy rang up customer support and they said they could enable WiFi but i doubt that. Dont get your hopes up.
lol
the device doesnt even have the correct hardware for gps! this is not going to happen.
so a bledsinn !!

You are absolutly right!
mmmmm... i don't believe this news...
me neither, ofcourse it would be great!
But to be honest, it is so illogical. Working against any marketing 'rules'
it's no so much illogical because they did the same thing with another device... p3600

"Unfortunately, you seem to be right" would be better.
I doubt if GPS can be added if no-one here on xda can do it. Wifi being added is a possibility.
As for it going against "marketing rules"; I'm not so sure. With the announcement of the Diamond and Raphael the "Niki" line of devices has pretty much run its course.
Marketing is all about selling a product, if they add wifi (and GPS. *ahem*) to the Niki then HTC could in theory regain the interest of potential buyers. I.e. reduce the cost slightly and add a feature(or two) in order to move excess stock and maximise their profits. It's actually quite ingenius.
We'll just have to see how things play out.
WIFI would be enough if this news are true!
for me :
GPS enable -----> bull****

I'll check with our inside guy if this is true. About releasing of a HTC rom that is. If true instead of us having to re-invent the wheel it would have been nice if he'd share this info earlier.

I know many of us are still frustrated about the pre-order process, getting forecast ship dates of january-february even though the orders were placed in november. Patience is a virtue, but Asus sure seems to be testing it.

At the end you mentioned the 10 pre-orders- this might be all that are left after the cancellations- sad but true. I am borderline ready to cancel at this point myself.

Haven't seen a Hitler vid in a good while. Good job, man. And I too have been scouring these XDA forums regarding the Prime, haha.
I must say that vid has just about made the wait worthwhile!!!! But then again I am a glutton for punishment, for I endured the Droid Bionic release nightmare!!!!

That was nicely done... and it pretty much sums up the fiasco.
Funny but misleading the part where everyone who bought an iPad or off of Ebay left the room. Zero consideration for Apple here but instead will wait for other options such as Samsung Ta (dual-core Exynos 2GHz), Lenovo Thinkpad, etc.
Haha I wasn't gonna watch as i've seen hundreds of these Hitler rant vids but i'm glad I did - really captured what's been going on! Good job

You are right non that, Apple has its own positive points- but it was mostly done for comedic effect. Wanted to include the alternatives that arrive in CES but there was a lack of dialogue to properly do that..
Great Job, You captured all our sentiments. I hope ASUS sees this. This Transformer Prime thing has been a nightmare. Thanks for the humor.
Anyone got an Idea ?
Yeah man I was on line with A Archos rep A few days ago Fri 2 B exact he told me this week no later than next hope he is right cannot wait for it hope that helps GOD BLESS YOU BRO

A bit, yeah, though I don't understand why they'd release another 3.2.xx Version so shortly before ICS.
Should have concentrated a bit more on ICS methinks.
Or at least dropped us a message on Twitter or FB (where i'm getting no replies to my questions about ICS).
The problem with companies as small as Archos is they have a hard time meeting deadlines and often take a while to answer mails,... It's just a matter of patience, I can't wait for ICS to come out too, but it's just how things are with small companies
I know, but it still irks me that nothing new has been released about it.
It would not be the end of the world for me, but i'd like to know about it if it's being delayed.
Still nothing new on their site... i'm starting to get more & more pissed as more & more time passes...
I cant wait for ics too

Someone can close this thread, i'm not interested in this discussion anymore, and i'll probably put my Tab up for sale by the end of the week.
What are you expecting from ICS?...multiple Orgasms, a money-printing tablet or what? Give them the time they need to release a bug-free version man...

Yep, same on the official japanese Sony page. But they keep it very common, no specific countries or anythin.
So in conclusion, yes its coming but if our country is included remains a mystery for now.
If Japan will get in April, obviously other regions will also get by May for sure..

Does ics in general (incl. non sony tabs) support Sd card mount? Hate not having native support! Thanks!
Sony are a waste of space
Why is it that people like Sony have to release updates a country at a time. Its pathetic. I WISH I had never bought the stupid thing and had hung on to ny Asus Transformer that has had ICS for the last month.

you think they make it ready and keep it in there servers without releasing it to us? And japan gets it, they send feedback, Sony improves and releases it globally.
yeah go ahead and sell it, buy one of those "It has the same look as Ipad" tablet
I sure wish they would "leak" an early release like Samsung does for the devs. Oh well.
There are some interesting goodies coming in the release. I love the ability to open small windows on top of your screen for the browser, calc, etc. I wonder if you will be able to drag the program to the new control bar and have small windows for any app.
I hope they update the remote app, it kinda sucks.
Hi,
I opened this topic because officially Sony has not given yet a release date for the aforementioned products.
I live in Italy, which is basically the third world for anything remotely technological, and I gave up asking various clerks for the Xperia Z Ultra (launch was due mid September worldwide, here nobody knows nothing about it), let alone asking for accessories.
It might be the same as asking for a microprocessor at a grocery store.
So I sent Sony an email, I tweeted them, but no response whatsoever.
I scoured the net for dates, and as of now only Clove in the UK seems to have a date (September 13), but even that's not sure 100%.
All I want to know is, as a friend of mine is going to NY on September 17th, if I could tell him for sure to bring me back a SBH-52 and a SmartWatch 2,and possibly how much would he pay them, and maybe where to search for them.
I know I'm asking a lot here, but maybe there are some New Yorkers here that could give me an advice...
My friend is not as tech savvy as us, so I don't want him to run around in circles to search for a unicorn that will be on sale next month...
I only saw price for the sbh52 on UK webstores, they talk about 64£ with VAT for mid September. Couldn't find any US website, or maybe didn't look so well. So with today rate exchange it would be about $100. Didn't look for the smart watch 2.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
The SBH-52 is priced in Germany at 64€ ~ 85USD, and the SmartWatch 2 at 179€ ~ 235USD.
But usually the devices here get the same value in USD then in Euro, due to VAT, customs and generally higher price level.
So if it will be tagged at 149$ (just as an example!) or whatever, we get the same in Euro.
Both are not set up with a release date yet. But for me its quite evident/presumable, that they will be avail together with the XZU Europe/US release as both were hardly advertised with.
I know, if I had to guess I'd say 199 USD for the SmartWatch 2, and around 70 for the SBH-52.
So it sums up to 270 USD, a little more than 200 euros.
If they make it available from September 17th or before it will save me 70 euros, not bad uh?
If they throw the SmartWatch 2 at 149 USD I'll be more than pleased...
P. S. Does anybody know how much costed the last SmartWatch at launch?
If i remember right it was a SRP of 129€
Smart Watch 2 is selling for about £60 on eBay here in the UK
What they're offering there as SM2 is not the real 2nd version - it is actually the first.
So the price is not a decision-making basis.

I have been looking around as well for price availability and release date. For a week or so Sonymobile.com/gb had a price for the SBH52 as £79.00 with coming soon with a Buy now option which didn't work. They have a corrected it now and it just says coming soon.
As you might know clove.co.uk is selling it for £64.99, while amazon.co.uk seems to be out of stock and will dispatch as sson as they receive them. Amazon is selling it for £56.03..I have placed an order and just Waiting
I have read most probably this is coming out at the end of September. Well we will see.
Has anybody in the uk recieved there smartwatch 2 yet from what ive read the release has been pushed back till Oct 1st,
Almost 20 days since the first post and no news yet.
My friend is in the states and I'm afraid he won't bring anything home...
I tweeted Sony but they didn't reply, I asked the support centre but they say they don't know about release dates...
It's getting frustrating.
