this app from Taiwan work.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8089/Software/Android_Root/ZenFone/RootZenFone-1.4.6.2r.apk

Caution! Disconnect all internet connection before root!
Clean the wifi connect info also. It will enable wifi after you press the Root button

I can confirm that RootZenFone-1.4.6.2r does work

It's a little tricky...

You need to be pressing the power button right after starting the root process and reboot.

If you did it right, the little android guy will show up and update software.

If not, work on your timing. It took me like 3 tries.

I did get the robot at boot, but SuperSU says it can't find the root binaries?

Here was the process that used:

1. Installed SuperSU
2. Installed RootChecker
3. Installed RootZenFone
4. Forget my current Wifi connection ( hold your wifi AP->Forget Network )
5. Shut off Wifi
6. Shut off Mobile Networking
7. Run RootZenFone
8. Hold Power button right after click "Root" button
9. Restart phone
10. Wait for Android guy to finish updating software
11. Start SuperSU ( initially says it's empty )
12. Start RootChecker to verify root

Hope this helps

I'll try when I'm at some place where I don't connect to any wifi because I have 4 access points configured at home and I'm too lazy to reset those in my phone

I cleared my AP ( forget wifi connection ) and re-enable it after root was set up.

You do need to shut off both wifi & mobile network for this to work. I'm guessing the software spoofs an OTA so if you have networking turned on, the software wouldn't be "downloaded" correctly.

A nice low budget smartwatch to be used with your Padfone, or an high end stand-alone phone on your wrist? It's possible!
