Same touch issues as with my Nook color. Think its a processor issue. But for 99% of the time: not an issue.

I have a couple of touchscreen issues...If I touch the screen accidentally (or on purpose) while waking the device it creates areas on the screen that don't respond to touch. I created a video to demonstrate the issue:
I also get an issue where the touchscreen becomes less responsive over an extended period of use or after using CPU intensive games or apps. Putting the tablet to sleep and waking it almost always clears up the issue.

It can take a while to get fixes into hardware spins. The A0 spin will usually have hardware issues that have to be worked around in firmware. This slows down processing whenever a workaround is hit.
Therefor, I usually wait 6-12 months before buying a new electronic product (like I will with the Nexus 7). Certainly many of the chips in it may be passed the A or even B revisions, but the boardwork is new, and hardware fixes are better than software workarounds.

I received mine this week and think it is brilliant. It is more intuitive than a smart phone and the screen is great. My only complaint is that it goes into sleep mode too quickly. I will have to dig into the setup to see about changing that. I would highly recommend the device. I suspect my wife will be getting one soon.

What to do to prevent the success of a competitor when you can't compete properly? Oh yes, employ yellow journalism, spread bad news about it.

So what you are saying is "live by the antennagate and you will die by the antennagate"?

I have had mine for a week and so far no issues to report. This thing is absolutely perfect!

Mine is pretty good, occasionally I have issues with Movie playback on Netflix. I've tested with other devices so the wireless is working well, just has my Nexus pausing every 30 seconds to buffer. Annoying.
However; love Google 'Siri' so far, I've used it to handle math problems while reporting a report. Pretty cool.
No need for 'yellow journalism' comments, If you expected a perfect device in 4 months, you aren't a practical person. If we have these issues in another couple of months, then worry about shrilling for your particular team.

Don't know if some of these users are new to tech products, or what! But, *everything* that hits the market has teething problems. Everything. Sounds like a firmware issue that will be taken care of, and perhaps some early production issues that can easily be worked out.
The *only* thing to watch - not the device itself, which seems to be a home run - is how Google and Asus comport themselves in taking care of their enthusiastic customers. They will absolutely shoot themselves in both feet if they don't quickly address these issues and make sure the customers with problems are tracked (if they so choose).

I wonder what the modders recommend for it? Pry it open and replace it with more thermal-resistant paste? Insert a AC/DC adapter blow-fan in one of it's ait-vents? Should you only order one with a certain screen manufacturer? Hmmm... maybe the latest nVidia drivers to be released will fix it all?

I received mine late yesterday afternoon. I am enjoying it. Yes the display has a few imperfections, what of it, $200.00 is a bargain and the shadows on the extreme edges are so what in my book. Thus far no trouble with the touch screen functions and all keyboard touches register spot on.
