Looking for a nice sturdy tripod for the T989 to shoot my tennis session with.
Anyone have any suggestions/own any?
Looking for stuff that can be bought in the US. Non of that eBay crap that ships from Hong Kong...
If you want a small tripod get it from Amazon. If you are an Amazon Prime member you will get it shipped in 2 business days unlike 2 weeks from China or HK. The quality on these suck, but keeps your phone still for photos or video.

If you want to use a standard camera tripod, you can just get the cell phone tripod mount to use with a regular tripod.

Yes, i do have Amazon Prime. Already saw the amazon one. Looked at the reviews; it doesn't fit T989.
Not sure how I feel about the second one. Seems like the metal clamp would leave scratches all over the place...

it's meant for HD2, but I bought it to see if it will fit. it's $3.10 with free shipping, how can I resist?

I'll update with pics once I get it.
i ordered microhdmi cables from them ~1 month ago and finally got last week. haha. I bought two but they sent three. And they work well. go figure.
They ship this from hong kong and it can take a long time before you get it.
nice. I saw it too, but saw that the amzer cables are cheaper and longer as well. also, sorry, I just noticed that there was an accessories forum.
got the pouch and tried it today. it's a little snug since it's meant for the HD2, but it fits well. the quality is great; nothing spectacular but not crappy either. to my great surprise, it has an HTC logo on the front of it which is great. here are some pics I took with my phone. note: my phone is in upside down.
no comments? =(

its a generic universal smartphone leather pouch with belt clip nothing fancy let me boot back into fresh so i can take pics, im using bakedpastaries right now, front cam is not ideal for picture takin ;p
here ya go http://wasd321.imgur.com/evo
$50 Radioshack giftcard towards my evo also included $25 off any accessories, so naturally RS's overpriced generic body gloves were conveniently priced at $25 so I ended up paying for tax only.
It's on the clearance rack in the 28th St, Grand Rapids, MI store. There was one left after I got mine. Somebody might find this useful...

Good Luck
I'd post a pic of the receipt but it got soaked on the condensation from my lemonade bottle. BTW, Simply Lemonade is also on sale.
How do you find the case? I've been lusting over this and $10 is so ridiculously cheap! I live in Australia and I can't find any of these here. It's $40 on Amazon, but they won't ship here. Even if they did, the shipping would probably cost more than the case itself
Unfortunately, the deal is very YMMV as I can only confirm it to be working at one specific Target retail store. Regarding the case itself, I find it slightly underwhelming as I must undo the Velcro flap in order to use it with my docks (even after swapping for the case adapter). My concern is that by opening the flap so frequently (3-4 times per day) it will wear out.
For US$10-$20, it might be worthwhile but it lacks a closure and it is not not dock-friendly so I would not recommend it for above US$20.
EDIT: The case also lacks 2 articulation points shown in the photos. If it was really capable of all of those different bends, it would never be able to hold the Xoom up.
Went to one of my local Target stores and it was regular price still.
how does it hold the zoom in? it looks like a glove frame holds the xoom in.
It has a Velcro flap that covers the bottom. It has cut touts for all of the connectors but it adds too much thickness to use it with the cradles (even with the case adapter) unless you open the flap.
This video shows the flap: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etm0UFI5Dj8
I got mine for $7.48, which just means the one i purchased had been on clearance longer at that particular store.
I'm finding I like this case enough that I should have bought both that my store had so I could have a spare when I wear this one out.

They are descent cases I got I was by luck in GA I enjoy weekend up there. I igit one that is selling on Amazon for like $10 that kinda feels slot better. I The Belkin case is nice just a lil bulky at times.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
If anyone has an extra/spare/unwanted belkin portfolio case, I'd very much appreciate it if you could let me know.
Thanks!
Hey guys,
I got the tab at i/o and I've been waiting for months to get some accessories. Now it's finally available in Canada and I still can't seem to find any. The source has the book cover case for $65 but that's it. Does samsung sell them? I can't find any way to buy them from their site.
Maybe if best buy ever gets this thing in stock, they'll carry some accessories..
Thanks,
Sam
I haven't been able to find any either. I'm thinking I will prob buy online.
I haven't been able to find any accessories in Canada either. I ended up getting one of those slim TPU cases online through eBay, and a 10" netbook sleeve makes a great carry case I found
I think ebay is your best bet. I was forced to by the book case from the Source yesterday but didn't want to wait 2 weeks for it to be shipped from the UK.
I also bought the Samsung case from the source yesterday. At first I hesitated because it was so expenice, $73 with tax. But I'm glad I got it, as I really like the case. It was the thinnest case I've ever owned, after using many for my ipad.
The material also seems very durable, and does NOT show any finger grease! So no cleaning is required. Also I love the "4 clip at the corners" design. It doesn't cover any basel and I can clip my GT "upside down", which I am currently doing to also better access to the buttons. (I will never use the rear camera so don't care that its covered).
expansys.ca
Has all you need. Cables, adaptors, docks and cases.
also, the source has the book case for $54 right now, i bought it. So thin and light it barely adds to the tablet.

How? I just bought mine, and it was $65 + tax from the Source store. This is the price they have online too.

Nooo, don't order from expansys! They list items in stock and once you proceed through their checkout the item then shows out of stock. Google their reviews and judge for yourself. I was going to buy my tablet from them. Their website said IN STOCK (more than 100) and as soon as I placed my order it showed out of stock. I cancelled my order then.

The samsung case is nice, but sometimes you need to clip it in upside down if you want to use the low angle position (where the flap fits in that groove). Quite a few apps that require landscape mode will not run upside down - so if you don't flip the tablet, your view is upside down. Using the camera is also a HUGE pain with this case. Really, this should be priced at $30, not at an overpriced $65. I still like the case and it's thinness is very nice.
I really want the usb connection kit now...

I hate the source. How can they not automatically adjust the price when the sale is not their own flyer!!! To make it worse, I realized that the sale is not for all stores. Depending on which store your select when you lookup the online flyer, that last page of the flyer may or may not have the $10 off section. Wired, huh?
Luckily, the store where I bought it from did have the sale. I did have to drive back there, and get them to look up their own flyer to give me the $10 refund. The saleperson had no idea what's going on. I wouldn't say she was particularly nice during the process.
The only other store in town that still have stock for the book case was NOT part of the sale. If I pick their store when looking up the online flyer, that bottom section disappeared from the flyer on p. 18.
Once again, I hate the source. Stupidest way of handling their own sale. The whole process felt like I'm getting their to price match a competitor's flyer.
I want to get the samsung flip case that covers the screen. It was being included for free with the order from some retailers.
Can it be purchased separately?
Thanks for any feedback.

Yes. I got mine at Handtec UK.
i bought mine on ebay. but it seems the price has hiked up a fair bit now.
please don't bother with buying it, the build quality is terrible, and it peels off after a few weeks of use. definitely not worth what it's selling for
Got mine on ebay for $45 shipped. I actually like it as I can fold it back to fit in my car dock quite easily.
It's integrated into a backplate that's slightly raised so it protects the Camera from scratches.
Thanks for the replies. I ordered it from mobile fun uk.

I've had no problems with mine. I have abused it also by puttiing it into tight desk and car docks which scrape the sides. It is still in great shape.
Mine is doing fine too.. No problem with quality
Low quality
I'd agree about the low quality comment.
The line along the edges started to peel off first, and now the actual cover is starting to peel.
Fortunately, I'm expecting my easecase soon, so, I'm hoping it survives another week or two, and, I hope the easecase is as good as others have indicated it is.
The most annoying thing about this case is it's actually not for sale (mine had a sticker that said "not for resale"). They are given free in some countries where Notes are purchased.
eBayers are making a fortune on this free item. Capitalism at it's finest but oh well.

Too true, although I like the idea of the flip case, mine starting peeling off after a couple of weeks.
Also mine started peeling off inspite my intensive care
I got mine with the phone. After 2 months it's still ok.
I think that a flip case that does not need to change the phone back might be better for those like me who are used to connect it to the car dock often, to get the latest traffic info. Even if it might be possible to hook the phone-case combo into the dock, nevertheless it seems to put strain on the micro USB connector, which might being damage in time.

I have the flip case and I have to say it made the whole experience of carrying the note much better .it is better than other cases because it does not add bulk.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Sad to hear that it's such bad quality. I am using mine for a week now (Netherlands) and no problems yet. Lovin it! Also bought the Brodit Carkit but as people mentioned, won't fit with flip case :-(
So decided to put the normal back cover on and buy a pouch (Going to try a neoprene for now).
German purchasers of the Note can get it for free now under https://samsung.de/de/microsites/galaxynote_flipcover/Default.aspx
Anyone know of a decent tripod for our phone?
