As I've been hearing from many of you, yes the Asus Transformer Prime has been SLOWLY coming in with it's pre-orders. I have already met people that got their pre-orders in from Best Buy and Amazon so they are out there just hard to find right now. Unfortunately one reason why it's been having difficulties being released is literally in the name. It would seem that Hasbro, which brought use the Transformers cartoon characters, has filed a lawsuit against Asus for using the name "Transformer Prime" because they feel it is too closely related to the Transformer Optimus Prime, one of their main characters. It would seem Hasbro is trying to put a halt to all sales of the tablet until this matter is rectified in either Asus changing the name of the tablet or Asus paying Hasbro a nice pay day. I'm going to keep all my not so nice comments to myself but what do you think?

***Android News*** Asus Transformer Prime Update
So a lot of people I know that have been waiting for the Asus Transformer Prime have been asking me why is it not here yet? The truth is it was known a while back that it would be delayed in Europe and Canada, but Asus had said that the Prime would not be delayed in the US and would come out on December 19th. Of course the 19th has already came and passed so we are all kinda wondering what's going on. Well while we haven't heard any official news from Asus we have heard something from Amazon and Best Buy concerning Pre Orders. In an article I was reading, I found out that some Amazon preorders have already moved to in transit and Best Buy stores might be able to take pre orders as soon as the holiday weekend is over. That's the latest news so far, but check back for more news to come.

Asus has always been one of the best companies for the money when it comes to electronics. The Asus Transformer is a prime example of that, and it just got better this week. Best Buy has dropped one of the best selling tablets of the year down to $299. Better get them while they're hot.
