Did you get the keyboard dock?
No, they aren't available anywhere at the MO but as soon as they are I will be picking one up!
Have you found the software to be pretty buggy? I've had to force close a numer of apps on a regular basis and that includes the pre-installed stuff.
Poidh :)
I had a couple of force closes but personally it was when using 3rd party apps. I have just received a software update to 8.2.39-20110423. I am also using the stock keyboard rather than the Asus one and haven't had any fc today.

Can this cope with high def video at all?
Is the OS responsive enough? I heard it can lag quite a bit...
Haven't seen any major lag, apart from just after exiting some games, but then it seems to speed up again very quickly. I have tried only HD Youtube videos and iPlayer so far, both output to my Samsung HD TV very nicely - The display is fully mirrored, not restricted HDMI functionality like on some Android phones.
Am still playing around with file formats as the media streaming software included does not seem to stream divx files. RockPlayer and yX player however seem to be able to play them happily, with RockPlayer being the much better of the two.

Anyway to connect this thing to a printer? Either network or USB.
Thinking of getting this for my dad as a replacement for his aging laptop. He doesn't do much apart from E-mails and booking hotels and fights so the printing is a must.
Two pages of Google search found nothing that you could possibly use...

This page shows setup instructions for an android printing app called printershare
Just wondering whether you've tried bluetooth tethering a 3g connection?
I'm 12 and what is this "Google"???
The problem is that google cloud print only works if you have another Windows computer connected to the printer hence this tablet won't been a complete replacement.
And Printshare's direct print only has a limited number of printers it works with.
I was wondering whether the tablet came with it's own software to do it. Especially since it is one of the first Android devices to come with a proper USB.
I suppose the best choice would be to use printshare and buy a compatible wireless printer.
Then the short answer is no.
This is the one I'm looking at, I'll wait a bit tho until I can get it with the keyboard, then I want a car holder for it and voila, carputer...
