ASUS confirmed that an Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update for their latest slate, the Asus Transformer Prime will be rolling out starting January 12th! Also ASUS promises a bootloader unlocking tool which will give developers and hackers alike the chance to work with their NVIDIA Tegra 3 quad-core tab on a deep level.
“Regarding the bootloader, the reason we chose to lock it is due to content providers’ requirement for DRM client devices to be as secure as possible. ASUS supports Google DRM in order to provide users with a high quality video rental experience. Also, based on our experience, users who choose to root their devices risk breaking the system completely. However, we know there is demand in the modding community to have an unlocked bootloader. Therefore, ASUS is developing an unlock tool for that community. Please do note that if you choose to unlock your device, the ASUS warranty will be void, and Google video rental will also be unavailable because the device will be no longer protected by security mechanism.” – ASUS
