If you have ordered from Amazon and did not select 1-day shipping. Contact customer support, and ask them. I just got mine upgraded to 1-day shipping.
Baiju:Hello, my name is Baiju . I'll be happy to look into your issue.
Me:Hello, I see that the item TF201-C1-GR 10.1-Inch 64GB has free 1-day shipping when ordering. I previous placed this an order for this on Nov 22 but did not get free 1-day shipping as an option.
Baiju:Thank you for waiting.
I have checked and found that this item is currently not available in our website.
Me:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0067PLOCA
yes, it is out of stock but you currently offer free 1-day shipping if an order is placed for it. I placed an order on November 22 but did not have the option of free 1-day shipping.

Called Amazon, spoke with a supervisor and then a manager. They told me they are not expecting the 64gb model for 4 to 7 weeks. ASUS has not provided them with an ETA and only a window of sometime in late January.
PURE SPECULATION BELOW:
It looks like ASUS did not produce any 64gb models in order to push out the 32gb models and I would venture to say they haven't even started production of them yet.

Prime Canadian Pre order thread

Fellow Canadians!
Other than best buy, futureshop and Staples, are there any other pre order sites?
I have a champagne transformer pre ordered from staples, as they were the only local retailer that had that color code for pre-order, however I noticed that they have pulled that sku from their website entirely. Not sure what that means but when I called Staples to find out they said that it was a possibility that only a certain number of that color code were available.
I did ask about estimated shipping and the rep had told me it is still slated of the week of Dec 12. So hopefully everything goes through without a hitch.
Has anyone else had this issue at all?
The only two other two places I know you can preorder is ncix.com and memoryexpress.com. Both of those places have the champagne version as well which is why I ordered mine from memory express.
I am just hoping mine gets in before the 21st because I ordered mine in calgary and won't be flying there until the 21st (figured I would save some taxes and not ruin my finals studying with a new toy!).
My last email from Best Buy Canada said the release date was Dec 5, but other than that, no word. I wonder if we are really getting it early here in Canada vs. the US.
Is it just me or are there NO 64gb pre-orders anywhere in Canada? Best Buy, Future Shop, Staples, ect. No one has a 64gb up for pre-order! I'd rather pick it up than get it shipped, btw.

Memory express and NCIX have 64gig versions. Although the fact those other big guys don't have it doesn't leave me with confidence that those two will actually be getting them at the same time as the 32gig versions. I am even a bit scared my champagne unit will be late as well since its just those 2 that have it.
Memory Express had 64GB TFs available for preorder in both grey and gold, last time I checked.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
Would have like to have ordered from Futureshop but they don't deliver in Quebec because of language laws so I ordered from NCIX. I ordered the original TF from them and got it the second week it came out. Another bonus is I only pay GST and shipping is fairly reasonable. I also ordered from Amazon.ca but I have a feeling I wont get it this month. I'll be canceling the other order once the first one comes in.
Sorry if this is already known but I just got a call from MemoryExpress in Edmonton, AB to change my pre-order because they claim to have received an e-mail from ASUS Canada stating that the only model available in Canada will be the 32GB Amethyst Gray. I asked for confirmation that that would mean NO 64GB and NO gold colour whatsoever and the sales associate said that is what the e-mail said. I asked about any release date info and they said the tablet would arrive in "the next couple weeks" but the dock would be "3-4 weeks away." Take that with a grain of salt though as I don't believe the release date info came directly from ASUS.

dang. I emailed them to ask about it and they emailed back saying they have some info and if I could call them which I figure is bad news. I had an order for champagne gold and mentioned in this thread how I was worried it wouldn't be coming. I gave them my number so we will see if they call me and what they say.
I just pre ordered mine from Amazon.ca says Dec 16th
Well memory express called and said that the only unit they will be getting in is the 32gig grey and the dock. Said that asus said they guess that the champagne gold version will be released sometime in February. Pretty disappointed as I was really starting to like the look of the gold! Ah well as long as they actually get them in around christmas!
Appreciated that they took the time to call me about the order though, the guy at memory express was nice and explained how pissed they were at asus.
I just did NCIX in Vancouver.. no date.. but better then Amazon.ca dating it AFTER jan 31st...
BestBuy Canada Release Date
BB Canada is showing my pre-order with a December 22nd release date.
Asus 10.1" 32GB Eee Pad Transformer Prime Tablet With Wi-Fi
Item Status: Pre-Order
Release Date: 12/22/2011
In the GTA here... Online shows bestbuy, staples and even futureshop not having any stock!
First off I really would have liked to buy it in store instead of online. Do you think there is a chance that any store would have this available before Xmas (in store that is)?
"So what you want me do 'bout that?"
Yeah mine is all over the place too:
Shipment 1

Weird.. who knows.. I lost my amazon order so I just would like to get one. haha
Anyone know when it will be available in stores?
December or January stick with thos months and you will be fine
No 64GB... This just sucks. No wonder Best Buy wasn't getting back to me on when they'd be getting that model. REALLY disappointed.
My future shop order has changed from release date on the 5th of December to the 22nd of December today. Was anyone else able to choose any other shipping method other than regular old ground? doesn't look too promising to get it before christmas.

Come on Amazon get the 64GB out!!!
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
I ordered on the 22nd, but no email for me. Chatted with Amazon and they say it still shows a Jan 10th delivery for me. Maybe because I changed the delivery to next day air, but I would think that they would still keep my order placement rather than put to the back of the line.
Just out of curisoty, can you give pieces of your order number so I can see where I ended up comparied to you?
If I had to guess, and I love guessing this ****, but depending on what Amazon has coming in will probably be posted in order. Hopefully the 64 GB start posting later today.
Told yu'all yesterday, the Amazon billing rep. told me my order (64 GB Grey) would be shipping "very soon." Sure hope he was right.
Wonder how long it'll be before Gamestop sends me my matching dock???
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
Same. Out of curious, were you a Prime customer too?
Any Canadian Primes shipped yet? Isn't Tigerdirect Canadian or something?
When I talked to an Amazon rep. yesterday, I was first told my 64gb grey would ship in Jan. Then I brought up that i was concerned about some people saying it would ship next week and I would be out of town. The rep. then suggested I keep a close eye on my email for a shipping status in the next week. So i asked if that meant it would ship next week and the rep. said they didn't want to say for sure and give false hope. not sure why they have been keeping so quiet about this but it sounds like they've known for a while.
I am a amazon prime member and my membership expires 23th December. Maybe that's one of the reasons amazon is shipping to me the prime on time

German / Austrian Preorder - Thread

Are there any details about the shipping date for Germany / Austria / Middle Europe?

try at www.cyberport.de , they listed it as 2-4 days, luckily i got mine delivered yesterday from them and njying it
they only have 64GB models available
strange that they have an availability for the 64gb model but actually not for the 32 incl. dock...
but it's a good sign anyway.
however they have really bad reputation @geizhals.at
Amazon.de has the 64gb gold for delivery in 1-2 months, the others are out of stock and will e-mail when available.

I can't confirm that - I've ordered a lot of stuff at Cyberport, and I'm really satisfied with their customer support.
Does anybody know if the 32gb model is available without the dock? I can't find it anywhere, not even on Geizhals.at or Amazon.
Here in Switzerland its early-mid January. 32gb+dock bundle or 64gb for the same prize are the offers. @digitec.ch
cyberport.de now lists all available models for 12th january
Notebooksbilliger.de shipped my 64GB gold
Hey,
Got an email today from notebooksbilliger.de. They shipped my TF Prime, a 64GB gold version, yesterday.
So I will get it by friday (today)!!!
I pre-ordered it 14th November.
I also pre-ordered the same model from amazon (de). But they say it won't be available before 19th January.
But as I will get it today from notebooksbilliger.de I will cancel the order as soon as I hold it my hands.
Still no update on the qwertz keyboard docking. Notebooksbilliger.de has never provided a possibility to pre-order it stand-alone, nor has cyberport.de. The only one who offers it is amazon (de) but they cannot tell when it will be available.
Got an update from amazon.de (32Gb incl. dock, grey, preordered on Nov 17th) about a hour ago.
Delivery on Jan 5th.
We will see...

Prime shipping from Amazon Germany!
Hi all,
i just received the message that the TF Prime 32GB (+keyboard,grey) is shipping from Amazon Germany! It seems to be a small total shipment, on the product page there is still no availability shown, but i also read some posts on Facebook that some preorders are being shipped. Seems like the Amazon stock is quite limited... But for me its great news
Anyone else seeing shipments?
Screenshot: see below
Glad to hear another about new wave in Europe. The more new shipments the quicker they will release fixes

Amazon Germany page says "Available in 1 to 2 months" for the Prime 64 GB grey. There is no bundle with keyboard for the 64 GB version in Germany (afaik)...
But apparently the status doesnt mean too much considering my first post!
Mine (32GB incl. dock, grey, pre-ordered on Nov 17th) is on its way, too.
Estimated delivery is Jan 4th.
Finally!
Yeah, I have seen that, still hoping to get one...
It looks like cyberport will be selling bundle.
I have preordered the 32GB w/ dock version on 22nd of November and still have no mail of shipment or estimated date, but I saw in the comments of Amazon.de that some guys with preorder from 15-16th have already received theirs... I hope mine ships soon and without hardware defects.
Congrats to the lucky ones with the confirmation mail

In my experience, if you change something about your order (address or bank account), it seems to "update" your shipping status faster. My shipping status yesterday morning was "unknown". After i changed the shipping address & payment option, it immediately changed to "shipping soon" and is now on its way....
Maybe you should try that ;-)
Cyberport store in Vienna shows it as "in stock". Got mine there last week so I think it's credible. (Sry. can't post links yet, but look for tf201 @ cyberport.at/wien).

I'm confused. You're canceling your order because it is going to ship sooner?
I assume you bought it somewhere else, and no longer need your preorder on Amazon?
Ah, it seems as though if I use my southern California delivery address, the order would arrive on 12/30. If I use my address in New Jersey where I am now, the order would arrive on 1/3. This is regardless of having one-day shipping for both options. Different distribution centers?
I hurried and checked my email/amazon order status, lol. I order on Dec 20th, not with the pre-sale or previous 1st pre-order batch and my Previous estimated arrival date: January 25, 2012 - February 08, 2012 and still is showing estimated arrival date as the same, no change
Maybe because I ordered the 64gb grey, not the 32gb. But congrats! I'm praying I get the same email, for an earlier arrival date,
What about the dock?
As for the tab, I saved $1 with Newegg and it's coming on the 30th.
Looks like those of us who ordered the 64GB are screwed. I ordered on Dec. 13th from Amazon and still stuck at the original ETA.

Yep, ordered on 22 Nov, and am counting myself lucky to still have an 10 Jan ETA. Interesting strategy ASUS has to bone the folks who were willing to pay the premium for the step up.
I think Amazon got some more units, which is why people are getting these "Good news!" emails.
I predict as Amazon bumps up their supply, more people will start seeing "Good news!" emails. Hopefully though, with people canceling their Amazon pre-orders to get ones from BB, OD, Staples, DataVis, B&H, J&R, Newegg or TD, Amazon will be able to supply more units to those who have already pre-ordered.
I say that because Amazon hasn't been updating their web page to tell people they have more in stock like BB is doing with each new shipment.
I order a pair, one champagne and one black silver, both 32gb. Only got the good news email for the champagne order. Will be delivered by Dec 30 (which is tomorrow!!). No tax from Amazon. Good thing I waited. Yay.

Right, and no official word from ASUS either. I think I'm close to canceling and waiting for the iPad 3 in late Feb. The mixed reviews around here don't help either, I was so hyped for this thing reading all of the official reviews.

[Q] Amazon pre-order

So I ordered my Prime from Amazon with the second run (mid December). It was supposed to be here in 4-7 weeks, but I've read that orders are starting to go out. I ordered the 64gb Grey. Anyone order during this time frame get any news about if they are shipping soon?

I ordered mine on the 18th and it shipped on the 30th
I ordered on the 26th and still no updates
I ordered the 64GB Champagne & dock on 12/14 and all I see is 1/18 to 2/7 delivery timeframe. Also ordered from J&R on 12/4, but have heard nothing.
I preordered mine on 11/22 and I still have a 1/11 ship date.
The latest I've seen is that some orders placed on the 19th have shipped from Amazon. My 32G Champagne ordered on the 19th has not shipped yet so that's likely the order date they're up to (at least for the champagne). I think the grey are in the same boat though I've followed the grey timeline less closely.
