Many issues have plagued the availability of the Transformer Prime in Canada, but Asus seems to have finally sorted things out as retailers will started shipping pre-orders soon.

The first sign of things getting better was yesterday’s report that Tiger Direct has started shipping the Asus tablet, and now NCIX has also joined the fun.

As Mobile Syrup reports, the retailers is now receiving its first batches of “the 32GB Grey model,” which should soon go towards their rightful owners.

Best Buy Canada also has some news about its Transformer Prime shipments, but sadly these aren’t as good as hoped for those of you wanting the tablet for Christmas as the retailer said that the new release date is scheduled for December 30th.

Asus doesn’t expect to resolve all the Transformer Prime availability issues earlier than January of 2012, so there are still a few more weeks left until you can enter into a retail store and walk out with a Prime of your own.
