Just thought i'd get this thread started. No sites found so far.
It's on websites, it just comes back as not existing. So far seen it on the following sites:
Comet: http://www.comet.co.uk/p/Tablets/buy-ASUS-Eee-PAD-TRANSFORMER-BUNDLE-Tablet/717711 which says discontinued but isn't available through normal product selection I found it via google. The product code 717711 is however the code on their systems.
PC World: It's available to select but then says it's no longer available
Amazon: Released June 1st
Laskys: Showing as Temporarily out of stock
Will follow this and update if either Comet or PC World receive any next week as I get 10% off both through my work so only really checking them. I have a mate who's a sales manager at the local PC World store and is going to phone head office and find out what's happening so will let you know when I hear.
Ebuyer.com also have the bundle on their website, with the same ETA as amazon.co.uk: 1st of June
It shows up on amazon.fr with a "coming soon" message.
A lot of Swiss websites have it listed (digitec.ch claims a late June date ETA for the dock, while others have a late May date, around 27-31).
Just a suggestion: it would be nice to modify the first post in this thread to include links to all websites listing it along with the ETA currently announced on each of them.
Anybody knows a good place to get a seperate keyboard? I read on the Asus UK FB that the retailers only ordered bundles, but are there still some (e-)shops that have them? I checked Amazon, Carphone Warehouse, Comet, Ebuyer, Laskys and PC World but they all sell bundles or tablets...

I hate to contradict you but nobody is selling the bundle in Europe as of now. They have it listed on their site but it's either not available for order or you can just pre-order (with an estimated availability date of 1st of June). The dock itself I've only seen in Switzerland, at digitec.ch, for 129 Swiss francs (~100 EUR, ~90 GBP).

That's what I meant, I know they don't ship the bundles out yet.
Thanks for the tip, Digitech seems to have a reasonable price. Downside is availability expected late June. Hopefully in those two months I've obtained one already!
laskys.com have both the tablet only and the bundle in stock, for those of you living in UK. They don't do international shipping unfortunately
Hi,
Scan are also showing pre-orders on these, with no date known: -
www DOT scan DOT co.uk/search.aspx?q=TF101
first post so no links for me.
Feels like i've been here for ages tho, read the entire bricked transformer thread to try and put me off. Still searching tho.
Comet are now showing delivery in 10 days of the bundle?
Comet are selling the bundle again for delivery on the 16th of May.
Asus Finland confirmed on a email that transformer Scandinavian keyboard should be coming out May.
Verkkokauppa.com is saying that they will have 16GB transformer+scandi keyboard package in 3-5 weeks.
I have just ordered with Comet for delivery on the 16th of May and cancelled my Amazon preorder as they still cannot say when they will be able to supply my order. I asked them where I was in the preorder queue to get an idea of timescale and they said they couldn't even access that information - useless.
At least if I have an issue with the unit supplied from Comet I can take it back to my local store as opposed to having to send it away to Amazon and wait for weeks.
Good find on Comet, I'll go in the local store tomorrow and see if they've got an update on stock coming in to the store as my discounted vouchers can't be used online.
annoying that you cant cancell your order on comet, ive already bought the non keyboard version, and now the have the keyboard version avaliable.
Laskys - in stock from 10th delivery 16th May?
Spoke to Laskys.com (UK) - expecting tablet/dock bundle on the 10th May and posted (free at the mo) for 16th same as Comet IIRC - if you go through Topcashback you get £15 cash back !!
Went into Comet today and got my first hands on with the tablet only and has confirmed I definitely want one I managed to connect it to my SGSII WiFi and gave the guy the product code for the bundle so he checked on the system which said stock is coming into the distribution center on 10th so will be in store by 16th or 17th which is why delivery from the site is that date too.
Anyone who ordered dock from Asus got it yet or been informed when they will receive it
sent from my E Pad Transformer........without a leedroid rom :-(

Thanks testicle! i went ahead and ordered. through topcashback. Delivery date estimate is currently for the 15th of May

Not to be nitpicking but the UK is in the EU just so you know OP.
The Australian Samsung Galaxy Note launch will not happen till February!
While announcing it's Galaxy Note World Tour event in Jakarta, Indonesia,
"Samsung also mentioned that Australia will only see the handset come February 01 in 2012." according to Cnet.
February is quite some time away. Could Samsung be waiting to roll out ICS to the note before launching it in Australia to avoid more Apple lawsuits?
Samsung recently changed the look of the galaxy tab in Germany for the same reason.
I know companies launch products in different markets at different times for a huge variety of reasons, but I can't stand the waiting game
(need to get it on plan as a work thing, so no ordering from overseas, ha ha)
Also, I have been asking Optus about the Galaxy note:
-Online help confirmed that they are looking forward to its release on the Optus network and to expect to hear more soon.
-An instore sales rep also said that he had played about with one at training in Sydney recently, but they still have yet to confirm release date for the phone.
So looks like at least one carrier will be selling the Galaxy note over here
That's Australia For You

I live in perth and naturally knew it would be a life time before Australia gets this phone so I it ordered online. If you can afford it, it's worth it because I just went and stuck a virgin sim card in there and went on my way.
It's a better option than waiting till Feb and then seeing the optus deal somehow fall through and the note only being on telestra or something haha. By all means do what you feel comfortable with
Got mine from becextech
Took about a week from placing order. Came from Hong Kong. Had it for a week & very impressed.
Gave the missus my 3GS
My wife bought me the Note as an early Christmas present.... Ordered Friday afternoon from Handtec in the UK, delivered to my hand in Australia mid-morning Monday.
At the time it came in at 449GBP plus around 30GBP in delivery I think?
Screw waiting for Australian carriers to realise it exists, then buggerise around organising their 'deals' with Samsung to install as much crap on it as they can get away with before finally letting their privileged customers get their mitts on it for $79/month or more on a 2 year contract.
got mine from mobicity. it was a polish version that was shipped from hong kong to australia. got it within 3 days of ordering, which is pretty awesome. they also offer a local warranty, which is pretty nice.
most of the time, buying a phone in australia is silly. despite our aussie dollar being pretty strong right now, they still expect us to pay outrageous prices for a local model. as an example, i nabbed a brand new n900 on ebay for $400 from hong kong, harvey norman were charging $850 for an n900.
just buy it online, its worth it.
I love the fact that all 4 replies were convincing me to get it right now...
actually worked too!
I think I'll order one next pay check, since they will probably put it overly pricey contract at first anyway D: Thanks guys!
Got mine from Expansys, was here in a few days, screw waiting until feb so they can bake some crappy exclusive Telstra/Optus/Vodafone firmware with a ton of bloatware, probably also cheaper to get imported.
I paid $730 delivered, can't imagine the outright price from any of the AU carriers will be close to that.

yeah...screw the wait for AUS carriers and also with their wares on it...
Just got an e-mail from Clove.co.uk saying they won't be getting any Galaxy Notes in white. Back when I was still looking for one I set up e-mail notifications for the white Note--glad I got mine from eBay a long time ago!

Dear ,
You recently requested to be notified when the Samsung Galaxy Note in White became available.
We wish to update you on the stock situation for this product.
It was expected that this model was to be available for dispatch in early December, however this launch has now been put back to early 2012.
We understand that this may come as a disappointment and we would offer a more precise date if we had one, but we do not at this time.
When the white model does become available, we shall email you to let you know. If however you can not wait and you would rather get a blue model now, you can do so by clicking the link below:

This is very bad news as I am waiting for the White model.
However Germany has been promised by Samsung, White Samsung handsets (SII and Note) in time for Christmas.
So keep checking amazon.de .. that's what I am doing
Here in Romania, it's available already. Check this site, it's in romanian. Translate via google.

2 399,00 Romanian leu = 473,86689 British pounds
Not bad. But amazon.de has the Blue Note for around £440 approx. so I will wait till just after Christmas and see what discounts happen in the Christmas/New Year sales...
Will the Romanian website ship to the UK?
I don't think so. You could contact them and try to arrange a shipment via DHL/Fedex, but don't know what the outcome could be
That's the lowest price I can find in Romania. There are other "ghost" sites that sell the Note for ~2290 ron/450 gbp but they originate from the grey markets and you dont get a valid warranty.
We have the White Samsung Note being sold here in Taiwan. Pretty much retail prices as it just got released recently. I don't think it would be that worth while to send Bank transfer fees and EMS shipping. I have seen them retailing around 22,500-23,500 NTD here in Taipei. I plan on buying a white one myself soon.
F*** Hell!!!
!!!!!!!!!DONT ORDER AT SIMPLY ELECTRONICS!!!!!!!!!
I just canceled my order and wait now for my refund......cause they cant tell me a exact delivery day....see email below:

STAY TUNED ! Just got my Samsung Galaxy 7.7 P6800 Baby in my Hands
Good lookin out. However I was on an Australian forum...you'll have to Google search Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 forum to find it but there were a few members that found Australian retailers selling below $500.
For you prospective US buyers, Negri so far has had the lowest price I've found (their price include shipping) and is in the $570 range. Still pricey.
But really not much more than the 8.9 and you get so many more features on the 7.7.
I'm ordering this tab this weekend....can't wait finally to have it in my hands!!!

Also ,if ordering from Negri ,put in the word "GIFT" in the coupon blank at check out and get another $30 off til 1/31/12 to make it $542 US with free shipping.
It was at my house in 3 days as they ship fast.
The part that Negri doesn't mention is it's the Hong Kong version and doesn't come with a US AC plug adapter.I already had one so no big deal for me.

Guess I should have clarified that I got the P6810 for that price. Just checked Negri and you are correct that the P6800 is about $100 more.
There are a few reputable sellers listing the 6800 on ebay now.

Hey, thanks for all the info ..I ordered a P6810 (WiFi only) from Negri today. Same price with the coupon at check out for $542 US w/free shipping. Great tip on the coupon, really appreciate the that!!
If this doesn't come with a US AC adapter where does one find one at?
Also since it's the Asian version, I guess it comes with Chinese language as the default? A setting change I presume at set up. However do you know if the keyboard will be in Chinese as well?
They say they are sending directly from Nevada, so I am in Florida right now...will see how long it takes.
For those of us with the WiFi only, an option you have is to get a personal "MiFi" hotspot. I got mine as a pay as you go device from T-Mobile. I can connect at 4G LTE speeds most of the time with my old tablet. I just top off the MiFi when I know I will be on the road.
Yes DO NOT buy from SimplyElectronics.. trust me.!
I had a US power adapter included with my purchase given to me by the cell dealer.
Also once the settings change has been made everything including the keyboard will switch to the selected language.

No seriously, just search the web and find us one guy who has already received his Galaxy Tab 7.7 from Simply Electronics! They claim to have stock since a few months but everything that I've read even recently, tends to show they don't have any in stock.

You'll just need a 2 prong AC cord to replace the big 3 prong one. They are like $3-$4 on Ebay. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?rt=nc&LH_PrefLoc=1&_nkw=2 prong ac cord&_fln=1&_trksid=p3286.c0.m283
Like this....
ebay is the best place got mine for 6 bucks
If i order from negri would it be safe to use my credit card.
Why not buy here?

bye
with paypal, no risk
thats just wifi version
Thanks! I actually mentioned that being the Asian version of the 7.7 it would require a U.S, AC plug adapter. Negri said they would include it in the box with the tablet.
I got confirmation of the order, and confirmation of the shipping with a FedEx tracking number. I should receive the tab on Thurs 1/26. This is within the time expected for the "free" shipping option I chose when I ordered from Negri.
I also ordered the OEM Samsung case for the 7.7. Thanks for the recommendation on that vendor (http://www.thecellguru.com/Products/62515) it wwas the best price as well. Also got an order confirmation and shipping tracking order from them as well.
I ordered my original SGT 7" from Simply Electronics. They were the cheapest place at the time. I think I paid around $630 last year. Anyway, I received it very fast by DHL.
My only problem/concern was that they don't tell you that the item is coming to you from Hong Kong. I had a problem with one that I bought from eBay first that I thought was coming from the U.K. It had a lot of Korean Apps. I think that it had been flashed as the package came from Slovakia.
So, when I got the one from S/E, and saw that it also had a lot of Korean Apps on it, I contacted them and they said that they try to send version that are for the correct country. They also offer a one year warranty. The only problem was that I had sent both of my tablets to Samsung Repair Centre in the U.K. to have them flash it to the correct English versions(I bricked the first one by flashing the wrong CSC).
So, just from my experience, I didn't have any problems and had I not already sent it back to the U.K. to have them officially flash them(Yes, I do know how now , I could have sent it back to Simply Electronics and they would have sent me a U.K. version. So, I think they are pretty legit from my experience. As they always say, YMMV.
Hope that helps in any way one way or the other.
Just curious to know if I am the only one, ordered from Samsung Australia on April 6th, was supposed to be shipped April 6th.... yet... my order page states; processing
