Tablets & eReaders

Just wondering if the shipment date of 12/18 in my email and online order status are correct.  Best Buy's shipping for Christmas states that this is enough time for it to be delivered.  Just curious because I read ASUS said that online retailers get them 12/19 and regular stores the following week.

I would like to know this also. I'm really concerned that I'll show up on Christmas morning empty handed

That's a bit unsettling - Best Buy - can someone chime in here?  Are you going to be honoring all of your pre-orders before christmas?  If not, when will you notify your customers?

Hmmm... Have my fingers crossed! Ordered early morning on11/23/11 at a Best Buy store in person.

i called about two hours ago to complain about how they're handling my pre-order for this tablet (billed twice already, which wreaked havoc with my checking account). after asking for a supervisor to further complain, she eventually said that i should just cancel my order, because the SKU has been removed from the system and the item was not available. looks like we're porked, too.

Just thought I'd let everybody know that I received a response to my email inquiry.  I ordered the Transformer Prime on 12/2 and was told via email last night that my order was confirmed and should be here before Christmas (12/23 is the estimate I got).  So, hopefully.. if you ordered on or before 12/2... it looks like we should be getting our toys before Christmas afterall!

I'm taking everything with a grain of salt until I'm enjoying my new tablet, but thanks for giving us a bit of hope!!!

I ordered mine 11/25 so hopefully it all shows up!

Just recieved an updated on my Prime Keyboard.  New release date bumped up to 12/19/11!  That's about 2 weeks SOONER than it was before.  The Prime itself still remains with a release date of 12/18/11.  All looks good from my perspective...  ;-)

latest rumblings are that it's a "worldwide delay." some establishments are notifying their customers. what a surprise that BB will be last to tell.

How do I pre-order it? Because it doesnt let me online, and when I called the store, they said that if I cant do it online then they cant do it at the store... -_-, they didnt even check.
