Case for LapDock

Do any of you have a case for the lapdock to recommend?
I travel a lot and use my lapdock everyday and I want to prevent it be scratched up.
Cheers

I just searched "Atrix Laptop Dock Case" on amazon. I ordered the one at this link because I liked the color scheme (slime green on black). It's your standard neoprene case with a zipper pouch, a bit overpriced, with no handle. It makes me comfortable stuffing the Lapdock into a backpack though (which is all I really wanted). I'd buy it again if I lost it, but not if I could find (a cheaper) one with a handle. Good luck.

might consider getting this.

There's the official one, but it's pricey.

Try this company for the OEM case, I found their price and service to be excellent

I haven't checked the exact dimensions, but you could also try a neoprene sleeve for the 13" macbook air (the laptop dock has that extra bar at the back, which may add the extra couple inches) or even the 11" air.

I got the motorola one, looks and works a treat, cost more than the rest but worth the money.

I bought a Kenneth Cole Reaction bag from Fry's. Below is a link to what the bag looks like.

I have the motorola one. It works great and looks very nice.

[Q] Is there a case that allows full access?

I'm looking for a case that will support the tab (folio style or the like) yet have the cut out or designed in a way to have access to the headphone jack and dock port.
I would really like to load movies onto a SD card and watch them via the USB host adapter. However, I will be doing this mostly in places that will need headphones. Also will need a case that supports the tab so I don't have to hold it. (Thanks Samsung, for this little inconvenience)
Anyone see anything that will make this possible?

I would like this as well. Most cases give headphone access but that port connector location kinda sucks. We almost need a case with a build in port connector that has a wire oud the side....perhaps detachable.

Ya.. I've been looking at cases for an hour and now resorted to looking on ebay.
That dock connector is seriously in a bad spot.
I could really care less about the case, but I care greatly about not having to hold the darn thing up with my hand while I'm using it. This includes while watching movies or showing someone pictures I just took.
Trying to add a support solution without adding the case would be an option...

I have the ACase Folio, which I am very happy with. When I want to use the Tab with something plugged into the dock connector, I fold the ACase cover all the way back and stand the Tab on the Rabbit Portable Stand and Holder, $10 on ebay, shipped, at http://cgi.ebay.com/Rabbit-Portable-Stand-and-Holder-iPad-Galaxy-Tablet-PC-/220772954466
The stand is just wide enough to accomodate the USB adapter (as well as the USB cable). Works great for me.

Thanks, I've seen the rabbit stand and it's the best stand of that type IMO. However it's just one more thing to carry. Add that to a bumpy plane ride and I'm still looking for a case that does it.
I just got the Belkin slim from Best Buyer, and it's going back.

The Rabbit Stand comes in two pieces, that you interlock to use (see first picture attached). When not using, one of the pieces fits flat into the other, and the two pieces fit flat into a seal-able baggie that comes with the stand (see second picture). Would take up minimal space in your carry on for traveling.
For bumpy plane rides, you could use velcro to attach the stand to the Tab or a Tab case.
(I have no connection to the Rabbit Stand or the ebay seller. It just happens to be the only good solution I have found to using the Tab in landscape mode with the USB adapter plugged in, and a good one at that.)

Oh yea baby ill give you full access. That what she said she really did.

Hey guys, I HIGHLY recommend this one from Amazon:
rooCASE Multi-Angle (Black) Leather Folio Case Cover for Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 Wi-Fi
I cant link to it yet, since this is my first post!!
I got it from Amazon last week after using the Belkin one for a few days. It's $43. but it's really worth the investment!!
The pouch is detachable from the Case itself so that it can stand portrait position AND landscape position. It attaches to the case by two large Velcro circles.
You can flip it around so that the charger faces out and the case closes while charging. Or you can leave it with the port on the bottom and move the Tab up (in landscape position) and the cord runs along the inside spine of the case while it charges.
Check out the specs and more details at Amazon.com
Executive Portfolio Leather Cover for Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 GT-P7510
Built-In Stand for Comfortable Viewing at 45 Degree Angle. Detachable Inner Sleeve for Handheld Operation;
Business and ID Slots with Accessory Flap. Elastic Loop for Pen or Stylus. Dual Zipper for Easy Access.
Access to All Ports and Controls.
A MUST Have for all GALAXY Tab 10.1 Owners!! Available in Black, Magenta and Red. Search: rooCASE Galaxy Tab 10.1 Executive Portfolio
Reattaches by Velcro for Landscape / Portrait Viewing. (Galaxy Tab NOT Included)
(NOT Compatible with Galaxy Tab 7, 8.9 and 10.1v P7100 European Edition)
If you are concerned about thinness and slimness, this isnt for you. This REALLY makes you look like an Executive!!

I saw this. It's just too thick for my liking.
I could have dealt with it, but the fact that you're always going to have a keyboard sized front cover in front of the TAB was a deal killer.

At first, I thought about that, but then I quickly realized that I wasn't. I guess the Tab distracted me too much I can't ignore the extra protection & stability it provides though. My stylus doesn't roll too far either and is easy to find on my desk which is also black (and the lights are dimmed for a little "Table-
Hopefully someone will develop one for those users who prefer a slimmer form factor which has the functionality & accessibility of this one. The port cant be moved so they should definitely take a closer look when designing them. If they put it on the other side, then it would be waaayy to similar to that "other" device, which shall remain nameless.
J

RooCase is AWESOME from Amazon! so many different ways to set it up its impossible to not have your desired configuration. Unless like someone else said you bought this tab for the sole fact of it being thinner than the thing that soaks up my woman's monthly friend. Just goes to show you that Apple will suck you dry!

VERY lightweight, portable, compact keyboard

Hi, I saw the other keyboard thread but couldn't find what I was looking for.
I have a horrible back and I need to keep my back lightweight. So, I need a portable, compact, keyboard for note 10.1 Next year I will be commuting to college for 2 hours (there and back) every single day.
I was thinking http://www.amazon.com/MiniSuit-Keybo...+10.1+keyboard
But reviews arent good. I like it cause it can go directly over the screen and it will be compact in backpack. Next semester i will be commuting for a hour everyday, so I need good one.
I also saw the logitech keyboard, but I went to the store to look at it and it seems thick and heavy. It would be thicker then netbook...
I use to have a netbook and I don't want a keyboard to be thicker then my netbook, with tablet combined. The reason I got a tablet was due to lightweight portability, so it would be pointless if its thicker. Thanks.

You should take a look at Zagg Flex. I just got it yesterday, and am quite satisfied with it.
Really, I mean, really light and compact.

Thanks! I was looking at that before, but it did seem thick and heavy? I have a netbook sleeve, would it fit? Is it thin? Thanks!

I am also a commuter student with back problems. I just got the Zagg Flex a week ago, and I love it! The Logitech with it's AA batteries and thick cover was too heavy and bulky for me, but the Zagg is just right. My kitchen scale says it's just shy of 11 ounces including the cover and charger cable (micro USB). It's about 6 ounces without the cover, but I really like the stand functionality, so I carry the cover too.
I purchased it so I can use my Note as my primary computer while I'm studying abroad in Spain this summer. Portability and weight were two huge factors. I also wanted a decent chiclet keyboard and not one of the weird silicon ones. I love the key layout of this one. I tried 6 other keyboards/keyboard cases before settling on this one.
It feels pretty thin to me. The keyboard is .75 inches with the stand/cover or .65 inches without it. For comparison, the Note is .35 inches thick with no cover. The two together would most likely be thin enough to go in a standard netbook neoprene sleeve especially if you took off the cover. It is also thin enough to fit in the back pocket of my jeans (not that you would, but there's an image of a model doing this on the box, so I had to try it.
The Minisuit keyboard case is .43 inches by itself and .66 inches when attached to the note, so the Flex would be a bit thicker, but the Minisuit weighs in at 12.3 ounces.
The only downside to the Flex is that it's separate from the stand, so it's not as convenient to use in your lap on the train like the keyboard cover is. You have to either do a balancing act with a textbook on your lap, or put it flat on your lap or the seat beside you and type from afar. I'm still trying to find a good cover to pair with it that would double as a base for the keyboard when I want to use it in my lap.

I hope you don't buy it from there, Amazon has it for half the price(http://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Bluetooth-Keyboard-Aluminum-Samsung/dp/B009SKVICM/ref=pd_cp_pc_3). I just ordered a Note 10.1 from yesterday's Woot deal so I'm looking for accessories, keyboard/case combo ideally. The only gripe I had seen about this one is that the space bar comes into contact with the screen when it's closed and in some cases wore a line into the screen. That's a little scary. I wonder if you could put some additional rubber feet on the palm rests to prevent this. Anyone on this forum used the above keyboard and have any feedback?

Carryall?

I'm looking for some kind of tote/micro laptop bag for the N7 in which the clunky wall charger can fit. There are plenty of slim form fitting sleeves with handles, but I haven't seen one with a gusseted exterior pocket. I have seen some pictured with just the usb cord emerging from a slim pocket, but it's obvious the chunky cube won't fit. I don't want a large bag where the Nexus would slosh around a lot. Ideally the bag would fit the N7 in a slim protective case, the big charger, and maybe another small item or two. I may have to rev up my sewing machine. Any ideas?

This is what I use. It sits right next to my xD .40. http://www.smith-wesson.com/webapp/...57856_757854_757837_ProductDisplayErrorView_N

Here's what I use: http://www.tucanousa.com/shop/one-for-macbook-air-12.html
It might be a bit bigger than you want, though. In the large compartment there is a smaller sleeve that I put the tablet in. Still plenty of room for other things too.

ROCK Texture Series Book Case

So today I've got this nice surprise in my mailbox, wasn't expecting it so soon since I've ordered it a week ago and the case was shipped from Hon Kong to Europe (Slovenia).
It's a ROCK Texture Series Book Case for Note 10.1 2014. I've ordered it on eBay, pretty nice deal with a 23 € price tag and free shipping.
The case is what I've expected, leather style, is slim and looks elegant. Feels good and nice to hold it. It has no magnets - after reading many reports on magnets interfering with digitizer and pen, I've decided to go with elastic band.
Here are some pics attached for you to evaluate.

I'm using it at color brown. It's amazing cover.

How's the weight? I've bought 3 different covers, and they all pack more weight then the original samsung cover.
Can the elastic band double as a form of handstrap?
does the wake/sleep / daynote work with this cover?
BTW is this the same one?
http://www.casesinthebox.com/rock-t...-p600-p601-2014-edition-dark-grey_p15245.html
Note that in the description it says " Support intelligent magnetic sleeping & awakening function. "

I don't have the original Samsung case, so I can't compare regarding weight. To me it doesn't feel like it adds some notable weight to the tablet.
Elastic is indeed usable as a handstrap, to help you cary the tablet around safer.
Yes, it's the same cover as on your link and as it says it supports wake/sleep function.

There is a case with a hand strap, forgot which one, and i didnt have a clue how this was supposed to work, the strap seemed misplaced.
I am using the Tucano Youngster universal case for my 7" tablet. By putting the sling attached to the zipper over your thumb, you can safely hold the tablet one-handed in portrait and landscape mode. With the 10“ version i finally got for the Note, only portrait works, or you have giant hands.
The best Note specific case seemed to be the hard to find Rock Excel, but w/o strap or sling, which is important to me.

this is the same one , right?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/22132752899...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

The Excel has a magnetic lock and no strap. Furthermore, it covers the usb port when closed. While basically sturdy, micro usb ports are sensitive to unwanted stuff inside(Which is difficult to see & even harder to remove) . Might block or damage it during insertion of the plug. And there's no alternative charging option on the note, like a charge jack or wireless charging.
