No word on tablet stocks yet, but they seem plentiful

If you were dying to get your hands on the Transformer Prime, Office Depot now offers you the chance to fulfill this wish as the retailer has added the Asus tablet to its online stock.

Only the Amethyst Gray version with 32GB of Flash storage is available right now, which is listed at Asus’ recommended price of $499 US (roughly 382 EUR).

No word on stocks just yet, but at the end of last year Asus promised that January 2012 will bring transformer Prime stocks to normal levels so this may be a sign of things finally getting a turn for the better in this regard.

Furthermore, users who order their Prime now will soon be able to run Android 4.0, aka Ice Cream Sandwich on their tablet, as Asus has promised that it will start pushing the Prime ICS update over-the-air on January 12.
