Original Asus Transformer getting ICS update next month

Asus has confirmed today that the original Transformer will get the highly-anticipated Ice Cream Sandwich update in February.

Responding to a question on Facebook, which read, "Asus, i know Google is in the process of approving the tf101 ICS update, but how long does that process usually take?," the company said "You should be receiving your update in mid-February."



The tablet currently runs on Android 3.2 Honeycomb. The update will be OTA, and Wi-Fi-only.

Asus' new Prime tablet, which is very similar but packing a quad-core processor, received the update last week.

The version 2 Prime has a plastic strip added to the back panel to improve the antenna.
