Asus was providing people with the TF201 with a GPS dongle that plugs into the charging port to increase GPS effectiveness. I believe you just had to register your Prime and they will send it to you. I read about it a few months ago, but didn't care enough since I never use the GPS to get the dongle. I'd imagine you can still have them send you one. It was posted on the XDA forums.

I've been looking at tablets for a while now, stuck on a budget and was thinking of the transformer TF300, looked like a ripper. I noticed there's no usb or micro usb. I was wondering if you could interface with the charging usb and use for flash drives etc. I'm a mechanic and need a usb of some sort. Dont want to use any late model tablet cause, they dont run applications, visually horrible and time essential. All help would be very much appreciated.
Blue tooth is cool very cool but maybe need more than, usb is also very fast

You can buy an adapter that converts the dock connector to USB:

The keyboard/battery dock has a USB port as well but if you are not buying it or want USB with just the tablet by itself, then the adapter should be what your looking for. I never got the adapter so I can't confirm flash drive compatibility but maybe others can who have used it. I know many buy it so they can connect game controllers.

I very much doubt it , video ports are usually input or output only, not both, and I cant see any reason why the transformer should be any different.

Have you considered using splashtop software to wirelessly stream content to your device? What are you trying to do?

Ahh, that actually sounds like a good use and could be very handy. but unfortunately that doesn't sound possible.

It sounds to me like you would need almost bypass the entire android system and use the cameras system through the Hdmi, as done when you connect to a normal monitor. However a normal monitor will have firmware to do this. Whilst I believe the Hdmi connector on the transformer is controlled by the android operating system (just as the monitor on your camera is controlled by the cameras firmware.) and so you would need to build a basic android system to support incoming video (if the hardware supports it) and do almost nothing else.

Basically you need to build monitor firmware for your tablet, that had drivers to manage the power usage and video input.
