Well I pulled the trigger...

Caught a rare window at B&H for the Champagne Prime, ordered and paid then looked at the invoice and it says backordered, didn't say that upfront WTH. Sigh.

Newegg deactivated the item. I'm wondering if Asus is "fixing" the prime by redesigning it. Look at the 1080p TP it has a new back. I bet they're doing the same for the prime.

I don't think you're going to see the prime for awhile.

Well I received two emails from B&H this morning, the first one said:

DEAR ASHLEY,

Please be advised that the ASUS TEGRA 3/1GB/32GB/ANDR 3.2/10.1"-CHAMPG you had on backorder arrived at our warehouse and will be shipped by Monday. We apologize for this delay and for any inconvenience.

We are pleased to inform you that the following order has been shipped. (If this email was sent on a Sunday or a Legal Holiday, your order has been packed and will be shipped on the next business day.)

I would imagine I'm getting the current Prime. Either way, I'm excited!

I'm so nervous! My Prime is supposed to be delivered by UPS on Wednesday, the day we are supposed to have a major snow event..... sure hope UPS has enough snow chains because I am seriously sick of waiting.

I made sure mine shipped fedex so I don't have to worry about it. I'll just call fedex and tell them to hold my package at my fedex location for pick up.
