Asus TF300 16GB 10.1" Tablet for $269 At Groupon

I am having a 16gb version and this is really good, Highly recommend for the price. I added SD card for additional space, Connect this to my TV thru HDMI.. play HD videos.. they are awsome!

Quote from esquire415 : Dumb question, So are you saying that this deal is excluded from ShopDiscover 15% CB? How is that?

Never mind...I see on the right side of the page says GOODS

But it would have been awesome with the 15% CB and an extra 5%

The only other CB site that offers that much is T0PCASHBACK.com but I'm not so sure about their reliability. Shop@home is at 7.5% only

Quote from flagal : Bought using Discover 15% cashback. In FL and had to pay sales tax.

Good price! If you're getting this, I HIGHLY recommend that you buy a keyboard dock along with it.

It really gives the tablet much more versatility -- turns the tablet into a netbook when you need it. The keyboard dock is fully integrated and gives you a lot more benefits than say, a wireless bluetooth keyboard.

After getting a keyboard dock with my TF101, I won't buy another tablet without one. I'm tempted at this price, however I got my eyes on the TF700 =).

do you have to root/rom this to get jelly bean on it?

I can confirm that this DOES update to 4.1 JB WITHOUT ROOTING as I have it's slightly bigger (32gb) cousin.

Seems to me this is a Slick Deal, given I paid $380 for the 32gb version just a few months ago.

Quote from BestDealer83 : I wonder why no one has thumbed this deal up. Seems to be like a good price for a Quad Core Tablet.

Probably due to the "repost cops" as this deal is a repost of a previous, by one hour, deal.

Quote from esquire415 : Dumb question, So are you saying that this deal is excluded from ShopDiscover 15% CB? How is that?

It pretty much excludes everything you could buy from them. Which means I won't be buying it. Slickdeal with the 15% shopdiscover. Mediocre compared to what we're likely to see between now and january first.

How is this tablet overall? Skype video calls work properly?

She's a screamer... and that's a good thing . Very smooth, skype works real well, reasonably decent front facing cam. I have had zero problems thus far with it. HDMI works AWESOME.

There is a workaround to get Adobe Flash working on 4.1 JB using the stock android browser, I can confirm that working also. I can also confirm that the workaround DOES NOT work with Dolphin Browser. I cannot confirm if it works with Chrome or Firefox either as I don't use them, however, from what I've read it does not.

Do a google search for Adobe Flash on 4.1 Jelly Bean without rooting. I am at work and don't have all my hacking info. in front of me.

Just saw that this is actually a repost of a deal thread started 7 hours ago... may want to see that thread here:

Best KB dock? Or what the dock you prefer with yours?

Quote from chucky_larms : Best KB dock? Or what the dock you prefer with yours? -CL

There is only one Asus dock designed for specifically for the TF300, but others may work.

Some of the other Asus docks/tablets are interchangeable, but you may not get perfect fit with the dock/tablet combination.

The most common keyboard dock swap is people using the TF201 dock on the TF700 (as the TF700 dock has less battery capacity).

The TF101 can only be used with the TF101 dock.
