Seems a ridiculously high price for the dock and keyboard not be be included, if it was I would have bought it but the current spec says optional extra which means who knows how much more for the keyboard and dock....how disappointing....can't even find any link for the keyboard and dock at the moment to find out how much more they want for those.Also, am bemused as to the product description stating it has full pc capabilities offering all the features of a laptop - if that was the case then the dock and keyboard need to be included so it is a package otherwise it becomes nothing more than a higher spec tablet because the keyboard is only an optional extra!!!

Read in a forum that the higher priced version ($1300 or something?) might have the dock & keyboard included. However, this is just speculation.

There is some scuttlebutt that the reason the Microsoft Store version doesn't include dock/keyboard is that it includes Windows 7 Pro (that is the "A05US" version. The A03US version is the same hardware, the same price, but only has Windows 7 Home Premium. At the IDF, Samsung reps said that the WinHP version w/128GB SSD would include the keyboard and dock, but this is *not* confirmed by anybody else since.

Samsung official specs (on their website) for 128GB tablet lists dock and keyboard as included!!
1754523
The dock lists for $100 and the keyboard for $80 on Samsungs website. Also on Samsungs website there is a list of their authorized on-line sellers. Prices are: $1100 for 64gb w/Win HP, $1250 for 64gb w/Win PRO, add $250 for 128gb and for dock and keyboard add $150. All prices retail.

on microsoft store website they have the highest version and it does not comes with dock unfortunately
1754525
Do you have a link to it, I have just been on the website and can only find the galaxy tab on there, no slate!
1754526
That's too bad. However, to be honest, I could care less about which version of Windows it has because I'm loading Windows 8 as soon as I get one. Here's to hoping that the keyboard/dock isn't another $150!

You Can't ASUS has not made this Table and Keyboard Dock since 2013. I Purchased One TF810 that was on E-Bay and should a Tablet & a Dock, thw write up said that it had a keyboard, however when I received it it was just the tablet, so I stared to look on E-Bay & Amazon & I found a Complete Tablet & Keyboard, so now I have two Tablets & One Keyboard Dock. So if you find 2 Docks let me know and I will buy it.

I like mine both ways. I like the tablet when I am playing games or looking at things. I like it on the docking station to use the keyboard for email and serving the web. I'm not sure if this answers your question but I LOVE my ASUS tablet docked and undocked.

Uhh, with a credit card????? Sorry, the weird personality pops up once in a while. On top of the tablet, centered, is a slot for the charger to plug into. If you have it connected to the keyboard, on the left side of the keyboard is the same plug in. Hope this helps.

It has both, but the tablet part will only have android. When you have it attached to the keyboard it has both

When the tablet is docked you plug the charger into the dock and it charges both the keyboard and the dock. When undocked you can charge either the tablet or keyboard separately. Hope this helps. Don

If you order this from Amazon it does NOT come with a charger. The charger would have come with the tablet (if you don't have the tablet, there's really no reason to get the keyboard for it). If you have an ASUS Transformer tablet with a 220V power adapter, the same adapter should work with the keyboard dock.

Yes it comes with a dock, and a portfolio which includes a Bluetooth rechargeable keyboard. The tablet has 1 USB 3 port which plugs into the dock and the dock has an additional 2 USB 3 ports

I bought mine at Best Buy when I originally got it. I love the keyboard dock for this little laptop / tablet. I tried doing a search on Amazon for it, and it didn't come up. On another page, it called it the TF810C-DOCK-GR. Unfortunately, Best Buy's website is not working, but I doubt it would be in stock there. I found a few places that listed it when I did a Google search (select shopping). Good luck!

I bought this as well and I can't get my tablet to work on it either. It has been sitting, unused since the day it arrived. I contacted the seller about this issue and they told me that I might need another plug for it to work. I would have expected this item to be in working condition, not have to spend more money to get it running. I wish I could help you more with this issue, but it looks like we bought a nice case with a keyboard for decoration.

I'm not 100% on this one. I have a connector that plugs into the charger port on any tablet which has a port for usb devices, and an HDMI port. I can't remember if it has a stock USB port though, but if not, buying one of these multi-connector ports would be the best possible solution if you're sticking with this tablet. Its basically plug and use no download required. Hope this helps. -Sin

Android in tablet (software program allows windows in tablet mode when connected to the same wireless router...program works well so far) docking on keyboard is single button operation. works great so far.

The tablet can be used by itself. It can charge without the keyboard dock. Within the dock is another battery so it extends the time you can use the tablet before charging. However, I would strongly recommend finding another tablet. The connection between the keyboard dock and tablet is poorly designed. very slight movement will cause the keyboard dock to lose connection. I had the original ASUS transformer and that connection was perfect. This one is terrible and because of this I will never buy another ASUS tablet again.

Some these tablets come with a keyboard. Menards sold this type last xmas for $88.Also this tablet has a keyboard inside of it. You click the screen and it appears. Also you can always ask places like Best Buy for different options and what may be compatiable with this computer. But when I looked into this last year, it was cheaper to buy the tablet that already came with the external keyboard. Hope that helps and have a Happy Holidays.

Ever get this solved? I bought one, tablet section only, and not having much luck. The keyboard is the dock, with ALL of the ports. I can tell you that the Envy 11.6 keyboard base, (dock), is no way compatible. HP must have thunk it a good idea to change post location as well as the "proprietary" connector. Also thunk it good to have zero ports on the tablet itself, save for the micro sd.

I bought mine from Amazon. I had difficulty finding the white/champagne color to match mine tablet. I was able to find it on Amazon and cheaper than what the stores were selling the blue dock at.

No, the dock is not included. Its about $170 and sold separately. If you plan on doing a lot of typing then its helpful to buy...but I was personally satisfied enough with the touch screen keyboard.
