significant trouble with ASUS Transformer ICS upgrade

Long awaited upgrade to Android 4 OS made to ASUS Transformer, and there are problem: 1. I have no mouse. 2. battery drains to 0 even when system is off.
So what’s the problem you ask? Just this– I bought the ASUS for the sake of the keyboard/mouse/battery dock and have already been through the expense and inconvenience of a RMA because of battery drain . So the one feature that sold me on this system is the one that Asus has not got right and makes the unit unusuable.
A post on a forum says a fix is in the works, and I hope so, as keeping the tablet plugged in defeats the purpose of being a tablet. Also, the ridiculous short power cord keeps one tethered to the wall!

I was impressed with the ASUS media player and its Linux based support for that unit but really don’t feel they’e got a handle on this tablet. I can’t see anymore ASUS products in my future.
