Android n00b suddenly in possession of a Transformer Prime here!!

I was angling for an Android device for a long time in a Mac/PC household. Having played with my wife's iPad2, I wanted the device to be a tablet. The specs of the ASUS Transformer Prime TF-201 looked highly promising, and armed with the tax return, I took the plunge. Newegg delivered the device in three days flat, and having charged it the mandatory 8+ hours, I am now playing with it. Because I am an Android newbie, I expected to experience trouble with it - and sure enough, that is happening. I hope folks here would be kind enough to help me out.
