Universal Car Dock?

Anyone use a good Universal Car Dock that will work with the GNex?

Amazon seems to have a decent selection. I just ordered an Exomount. The have a demo video on their site and it looks pretty good.

I ordered a Empire universal mount. Don't buy it. It's advertised with GNex compatibility, the side arms push down the volume keys, even worse, It broke what I was trying to extend the arm. It was only $8, I guess I got what I paid for.

Sure. Just got it. Gonna try it out tonight.

The mount is surprisingly small. The base has some type of sticky element that allows it to attach to multiple surfaces. I'll find out tonight how well it holds up on a car ride.

Hello Jerk82,
How do you like the car mount?
Thanks

I'm wondering if I would be able to mod this with my official GSM Car Dock. My case on the phone (a small/slim TPU case. It's really popular here, I just can't remember the name) has cutouts for the pogo pins, but my phone obviously won't fit into the car dock with the case on.
Something like this would be perfect if I could "enable" the pogo pins.

I dig it. Its been on my dash since I bought it and its fallen off twice, which I think is due to the heat from being in direct sun light for months.

Very nice - so it has a case modified to fit the diameter hole on the mount?

What about rain and mud and falls?????? You should try it with a otterbox defender or similar and possibly mount it at or below handle bar level. Just my 2¢… looks great though

If it rains it will go back in my pocket , mud I will turn around lol definitely not an extreme rider and if I crash, I have insurance on me and the phone...

Yep, I feel your pain. How do you carry it then with you on a bike?
I really like to use myTracks app again to capture trail elevation and my speed, which I used since I had G1, but worried about new GN ability to survive my crashes. Really wish next Nexus be Motorola with kevlar/waterproof qualities like in Razr Maxx (and good battery as icing on the cake).

i leave it in the pit area when i am on the track. i really have no need to have a phone on me on my bicycle since the only riding i really do is on the track.
for mtb however, i can see a use a device could have. if only there was a case for it like the gopro cameras...

Zoogue genius case for xoom

http://www.zoogue.com/products/XOOM-Case-Genius-Dark-Grey-Leather-.html
Ive been looking for xoom cases with handstrap and the genius case seems to fit the bill...has anyone tried it? Hows the strap for viewing the xoom vertically? My main issue is that I want to read ccomic books in bed and a strap for vertical holding would be great
(Sorry for repeat post....I made wrong title on first one)

I have one, I like it a lot, its very sturdy, I might be looking at selling though as I have been using the dock lately instead of the case. Let me know if interested.

Bahhhh I just ordered a brand new dark grey one off the official website last night....im super pumped .....hows holding it vertically with the strap? That's the main reason I bought it

Its pretty great so far.....the Velcro strap is such ****ty quality though! Its definitely going to wear out at some point....other than that it's sexy and versatile.....undoing the strap everytime is annoying and getting to the power button quick are my main complaints

I have the same case. I find it sturdy and easily adjusted to any angle. Very happy with it.....

Dock + case

I searched on here already, but couldn't find anything about this.
I'm looking for a dock I could use with a silicone or tpu case (not a folio). I have a cheap 'universal' eBay one for my S3, but obviously it's a bit more complicated with the Note's proprietary charger.
Does anyone know of anything? I'd be fine with a stand that holds it up high enough off a table top to plug a normal charger in as well.

I found these two on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004NFNQWM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A6U7LGCOJZZG2
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003QCOKGO/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
I think this might be a better solution than a regular dock.
Any other suggestions would be welcomed!

Here are a few that may work for you, remember you can rotate the note 10.1 180 degrees and have the plug at the top and the screen will rotate for viewing.

I wonder if I my S3 would fit in it too, or maybe they have a smaller one!

Almost positive I'll be going with the Myrin. The one for the Note 2 would for my S3! That'd be great to have them both at work.

SupCase Slim Fit Folio Review!

Hey everyone I recently received my SupCase Slim Fit Folio case and am pretty impressed. It isn't like super high quality leather but for the price it's pretty much what you would expect. I have the one with the elastic hand strap on the back and also the stylus holder. I really like being able to use the Nexus 7 in bed when laying down, which is where I spend most of my time using the tablet.
The folio features work as advertised and is pretty sturdy. It really is the generic folio we see for every tablet, but that's not a bad thing because everything seems works pretty well. You can actually buy this without the hand strap or with a hand strap and free stylus holder.
Keep in mind though, anyone using the LMT Launcher or something similar may not be able to use it with the case on because the edges of the case go onto the bezels. Also, just so you guys know, I did receive this product from SupCase prior to the release date since I review these products on YouTube.
If you have any questions just let me know!

great review. great production quality. nice to see a review that doesn't seem to be filmed in the kitchen or bathroom.

Haha thanks man, that review you linked to was hilarious.

Thank you for the review. Have you had a chance to see if any Qi chargers work while the device is in the case?

I don't have a QI Charger, but I don't think so. The Poetic Slimline doesn't work according to Poetic, so I doubt this will.

Is there a camera cutout on the back?

I bought this case via Amazon for a ridiculously cheap $6. It's now $13 so I just got lucky. The Supcase is really nice. Has a high quality look and feel, fits tight and elegantly, and works perfectly. The magnetic auto on off is very quick and flawless. I haven't tested it with wireless charging but instructions said it won't work while device is inside the case. I really like this case nevertheless!
