Has anyone been following the dock battery issue? If you are unsure what I'm talking about... The issue is the dock never goes into stand by mode, so it's always alive and available when you need it. Asus did add a feature in the last update that allows you to turn this off, but only works with the newer docks (serial number starts with B6).

My dock battery will drop about 15-20% overnight. Others with newer docks only see a 2% drop. I'm ok with my 15% drop, but it would be nice to have it last longer when I'm on the road and away from my charger.
Here's another way to test if you have one of the "good" docks:
(1) Make sure your software is updated to 8.2.3.13 or later; and your mobile dock is updated to 0209.
*([Setting]>[About Tablet]>[Build Number] & [Mobile Dock version])
(2) Dock the Pad into the keyboard dock.
(3) Go to [Settings] > [Screen] and select [MobileDock Battery saving mode]
(4) Press power button on the Transformer Pad to make the unit go to sleep.
(5) With the option checked, if your unit does NOT wake up with the tap of a keyboard, the new battery saving mode is enabled and working.
(6) With [MobileDock Battery saving mode] checked,if your unit still wakes up by a key press, you have the earlier design.
(7) If #6 is true and you also require the new feature, then please contact your local ASUS service center
