ASUS took to Facebook today to let users know that the Android 4.1 update would be hitting the Transformer Pad Infinity and Transformer Pad Prime soon and to “watch this space.” While that in itself is exciting news, knowing that an ASUS employee spilled the beans over at XDA yesterday — announcing that the update would be hitting U.S. and Canadian users within the next 72 hours — just intensifies our anticipation.

ASUS is usually pretty good when it comes to updates, so I’d make sure you’ve got your devices charged up and ready for some Project Butter.

[Update] Android Police have found more information on the updates over at ASUS Campus Life.
