Asus lock the Prime bootloader, developers not happy

The Asus Transformer Prime has kinda fell out of love with the developers over on XDA-Developers. No ROMs can be flashed to this device because the bootloader is locked down with 128 bit encryption. This is the same trick that HTC did, but then they eventually did a U-turn.

Why is this such a big deal? Well, the Prime really isn’t locked to any particular network, so why lock the bootloader out? So, a campaign has begun to try and get Asus to sort this out. Sign the petition, add your comment and join in on the link below.
