Right, for some of us this is a "Brave New World" with new terms and ways to accomplish
things. I'm guessing that "OTA" = "Over The Air" and that, that references an automatic
update offer (like nearly every time I turn-on Calibre). You will be seeing them for the
"Apps" as well. Mine came with 3.0 and but as noted you get the update notice during
the initial setup and I must have found the right place to poke the thing to make it
happen.

One thing you might want to give more thought to, than I did, is how much use you
will get from the keyboard. I find that I'm not using mine, the way I thought I might.
It maybe because I haven't been especially mobile myself lately, I've pretty much stuck
close to home base where I have more familiar tools at my disposal.

Another is that I'm still playing around with the fingerpaint OS idea and it is still so new
to me, at least using it on such a big screen. The tablet part of the Transformer is what
has my attention now.

As far as jumping into a tablet now, it is really still a new toy, early adopter sort of
thing, whatever you get now will not likely live up to what is available in a few months,
no matter what you buy. So I would advice that you consider the actual use you may
find for the device, unless you can afford to find that you may have spent an awful lot
of money for something that isn't really that useful, or that much fun.

Luck;
Ken
