I ordered my blue on Feb 5 with 1 day shipping, it came today, unfortunately it came with the screen damaged and will be returned so I am back in line.

B. Baker... Not sure if you're spreading that intentionally or not, but that site is a hoax. I reported your post in order to get that link removed.

According to this: http://www.dz-tech.com/asus-eee-pc-1000he-blue-netbook-intel-atom-n280166ghz-10-led-wide-svga-1gb-memory-160gb-hdd-win-xp-p-1115.html?zenid=025ecdd977bf8b366d57ef250c7e3ffbThey will be shipping the 16th. According to the Asus rep on the facebook group - Their US distribution company will be receiving them on the 13th, and they should be in retailers hands by the next week - so the 16th through the 20th would be reasonable... Amazon usually gets stuff early so I'm crossing my fingers for next Monday/Tuesday.

What model Wind and most important to me....Can the memory and HHD be upgraded as you can with the PC 1000 HE? So far I am sticking with Amazon but its a tempting alternitive to consider a similar unit currently available and in stock.

Just ordered mine today (6/15), sure wish there was SOME ETA as my old HP laptop is on the fritz. I can't believe the deal on this thing, almost $1000.00 off the HP price. I wonder if the price has something to do with the lack of ETA? Anyways, here's to hoping there will be some ETA soon. PS: I did call Amazon before I ordered, they had no ETA =(

According to "Creative Labs"... THEY will be shipping the week of September 17th. Which would translate as now. That was their reply last week... surely they would have known if it was going to be later by then. But any day now would be the best answer. If you're in a tight time-frame... don't do it. The more of a hurry you need something the less likely it will make it!

The forums show that people who preordered it through Newegg have already received it, leading us to believe that they are currently on their way to Amazon. There is no official word on this, however.

MSI has made some good motherboards for high end workstation chipsets for years. They may sell more outside the US, which explains why people haven't seen them much here. I have built several systems on MSI boards and I have no complaints.But that's also a limited statement. I haven't had to contact customer support so I have no idea how good it is or isn't. Their play on ultracompacts is somewhat risky with everything coming to market soon from all the big names. Let's see if beating the rush by a few months buys them some time.

Update on discussion with Amazon rep. He said the the following:"I have checked the details and for sure that it will be released by 27th for sure. It might be released before but for sure it will be released by 27th. There is a issue with the item for not being in stock."I don't know what he meant by the issue of not being in stock. Perhaps Amazon has not gotten them in yet.

No kidding.. I'm about to cancel and order at Newegg too. J&R; has it, Newegg has it, Amazon apparently doesn't. I even called and they're like, "Yeah, I don't know why we're not shipping it". Come on Amazon.. Get with it!

Well, I ordered this computer mid-february after reading the internet rumours of the scheduled early march release. Yesterday was 11th, today's the 12th... still no word from Asus, and Amazon's customer service hotline has no info to offer. Anyone know when we'll finally get this thing?

Canceled my order with amazon. They need to get their sh it together because several other retailers, even ones on this site are saying they have this laptop in stock and ready to ship. I went to buy.com, hopefully they will ship mine within the next 24 hours, I doubt amazon would have.

No I really have been afraid to preorder it as I need it by the 26th of Jan and if it isn't available what is the sense of ordering it.I want the transformer prime 64gb. If it doesn't ger here in time I am in no hurry for it, Then I can wait.

I spoke with customer service right now and they double checked. Unfortunately there is absolutely no ETA on the item. Is it even possible to get the ASUS U50Vg-B1 model which IS in stock and put a 500GB HDD, the 2.53GHz Intel P8700 Core 2 Duo Processor and the Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) Operating System? I mean.. Thats the only difference between them.. I would assume its possible and would be great if they would since we have been waiting so long for this product. Its about to be a month since its been released.. Help us! lol :(

Wow, didn't know ASUS would reply here. Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it. I ordered mines on Nov 6 and I've been wondering when to expect mines.

I agree. I too pre-ordered in early Aug and I also received the moved up email only to find out it was later than stated. As long as I get mine in time for Christmas I don't care, but at this point I am a little worried that I'll even get it by then. I hope that Amazon takes the lessons learned from this and other hot pre-orders like the Wii Fit to heart and improve on their service level standards. **Update** I was checking my account for another reason and I see now where I should be getting mine by the 24th of this month. Odd. But good news for me, I hope it actually ships then.

My est. shipping date got bumped to January 27 - February 15 when i changed shipping speed But since I'm overseas right now and won't be back until Jan. 31 that's fine with me.Would have liked it to be here before my business trip, but you can't always win. All the 64Gb models seems to have been delayed until after christmas as far as I saw in a few forums.

Gee, I wish folks would read some of the OTHER questions, before they ask. About a week if the seller has them in stock. And this is what? about the 3rd question on delivery??? 'course it was asked waaay back in 2012....?

rumors from where? o0 it would be a dream come true if it does go live in before august..did u see the other lesser sized models in the same series? those have an actual date on amazon already..with the smallest having the earliest ship date, bigger getting a later date..and this 55 model dateless, so im assuming it's gonna be the last one to get out if anything..so i don't think it will be anytime now until october at least..and "they should honor" or "they will honor" ? x:thanks for the quick response though ^^
