i also found that the case for the ASUS transformer works really good for the family edition xoom. The only downside is the headphone jack is slightly covered but everything else is easily accessible.

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.

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!
Ok so I bought a Qi wireless charging kit that included among other things a new back to accomodate the wireless charging of my phone. The only problem is that now my deender case does not fit my phone anymore. Anyone know where a person can get a case to fit the phone with the slightly larger back and preferably a case with a belt clip.
Thanks,

Sorry i cant help you with that, but mind me asking where you bought that kit? a link would be appreciated:good:
that's weird. I tried the defender case w/ my kit and it works just fine. fits without a problem and the pad still connects with the transmitter. did you somehow buy a shoddy bootlegged case?

Anybody have recommendations for a good desktop cradle? USB audio out not needed, but it must be sturdy and work with a TPU case.
I know this one is for an iPhone, but it's beautiful and I think it might work.

Nobody?
I'm surprised

I'm looking as well and have not made any decisions. The one you've listed should match the silver model well, but I think one of the bottom "leg" will block the One's Micro USB port, which means you can't charge the phone while it's in the stand. That's pretty much a deal breaker to me.
I am thinking about the phone in that stand horizontally.

I'm in.
Ordered this one
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-T.../380629793721?ssPageName=ADME:L:eek:U:US:3160
I ordered the iPhone stand I mentioned in my op. It's perfect. Sturdy. Works with a case either vertical or horizontal.

Do you have to have the phone off center when vertical to plug it in? Looks like the center cutout is too narrow to avoid that. Other than that concern, it looks like a very nice stand and I might get one.
Slightly yes, but it's still very sturdy on the stand. I had to move the phone less than an inch to the left
I have a Roocase for my Apple MacBook and I quite like it, so I jumped on this case.
I got it for less than $5 on a preorder but it's about $8 now: http://www.amazon.com/rooCASE-Google-Nexus-Tablet-Dual-View/dp/B00E3ZYWUM
Pros:
Magnet works perfectly
Stylus included isn't terrible, pen is weak though
Provides a level of protection I'm comfortable with
Versatile positioning options
Works perfectly with my Nokia DT-800 wireless charger Qi
Velcro helps keep the tablet stable at all times in both orientations
Tablet detaches from the unit to provide a second viewing angle or a smaller device to grasp (very nice!)
Side buttons easy to access
Price
Cons:
Heft, but considering the features and detachable tablet it makes sense
Enjoy!
I have a similar one, made by them, and it doesn't detach but overall its pretty decent for five bucks. Ive heard of people getting mad because the smell and what not, but I don't see why it bothers them that much.

I presently got a rhino shield bumper for my one plus 2. I really like this case a lot but the thickness of it won't let some headphones connect to it. For example my auxiliary port in my car no longer fits because of the case. Are any of you guys who have this case able to recommended a headphone adapter I could buy?
You're probably going to want something like this: http://www.amazon.com/FosPower-Auxiliary-4-Conductor-Extension-Connectors/dp/B01552UGMY
I don't have the CrashGuard for my OnePlus 2, but I have one on my Nexus 6P and I can see where you could run into issues. My headphones fit very snugly into the opening that they left. I know that the one that I linked isn't the cheapest thing in the world and I recommend shopping around, but I thought it was a good balance of quality, price, and length (if it were me I'd be aiming for a shorter cable to make the jump). Good luck!
