MSI BGP100 Bluetooth controller

As far as I can tell this is on the only bluetooth controller that is compatible with a non modded EVO. The only problem is is that I can't find this thing anywhere other than Ebay. On ebay this stupid controller is going for over $100! Unreal. dxetreme.com (chinese based site) used to have them but no longer does.
If any of you guys have any insight on where I can buy one of these for a fair price please let me know.

Bueller...Bueller?

I've been looking for them too man with no luck. I'm fairly certain they've been discontinued.

edit... outta stock

This sucks! Are there any wired controllers that will work with the EVO?

I have one of those that I bought for my WM phone and sync'd it to my EVO, but the response time is so laggy, its not even really useful. I tried it with an NES emulator and it just sucks.

I have one I will sell you. It is the black one. Has a brand new battery in it. Used it once and realized I don't use emulators enough to keep it. Will sell it to you for what I paid.

Ill buy it
Let me know if you still have it I'd love to buy it if the price is right.

brilliant mate, cheers
can you link the eBay item please

Search for mifare sticker or nfc sticker see what the options are
http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=160817201613&index=1&nav=SEARCH&nid=72625945009
Should do the job, but be aware most stickers have small memory on them 64k ish... Enough for tasker profiles etc
I should later today have some mifare access control cards and tags these normally have larger capacity
If they work of I may make some available. These normally have much more memory on them between 1 and 4meg

have already mate, and you can have too

Bit stupid of Samsung to make both the app and the tags USA only....
I already have an app on my phone that does this and been using it for over a week
NFC Task Launcher was like £1 in the play store
The app also links you to plenty of places to buy the tags from, if your in the UK I recommend RapidNFC.

Will the Sony NT1 tags work on the Samsung S3?
Seems to be alot of those avail on ebay...

holy hell. that is wicked cool!

here's the apk:
http://mobilflip.de/Downloads/APK/Samsung/com.samsung.tectile-1.apk

Can someone post a link to an ebay link or place that they have purchased from before and know that it is of good quality and trustworthy source? I know nothing abiut NFC chips but adter watching that video, i want some. Went on ebay and found a couple to chose from. Are most legit or would there even be much chance of getting a bad set?

Depends on what you order from them, I just got 10 white discs (stickers) that are capable of having anything written to them, even complex tasks for 65p a tag.

So I like that you can put the sticker/dot on your car dock and it automatically enables bluetooth, sets landscape mode, turns on Pandora or whatever else you program it to do automatically.
But... it sounds like when you remove the phone, it doesn't automatically go back to what the previous settings were. That's too bad.

The tag acts like a set of programming instructions. If you want it to go back to "normal" mode once you leave the car, you can create another tag for those instructions and 'tap' it once you leave the car.

I got a Hype Mini Bluetooth Keyboard for like $9.99. Works fine, but I hardly even use it lol.

Freedom keyboard from Amazon
I had a friend who tried the previously linked keyboard from Amazon and he said it was of poor quality. He said that it felt like real cheap plastic and he broke it within a month. Now mind you I don't know how rough he was being with it, but that was his opinion on it.

TYping on mine now ! - Arrived about an hour ago. Not as good as the Transformer Prime keyboard is my first impression, but it does keep the tab at a nice angle. Need to find away to stop the soft keyboard popping up though, thats really annoying.

Mine arrived this morning. Not bad at all seen as though I am in Holland and I ordered it from the UK around 17:00 yesterday.
Oh, and it visited Brussels on its way to me.
Unfortunately it has been delivered with a less than attached space bar, so I need to arrange a replacement.

It's a keyboard setting that tells it to pop up. Just disable that under Language and input,

Another option is to download null keyboard from the market and select it as the software keyboard and you should be good to go.

I've been waiting for this, but it looks like its already sold out.
Where are you located, and what's that store's ETA for delivery? From what I can tell on their website, they're located in the UK. I'm hoping for a US supplier of the keyboard so I don't have to wait a month and pay 2x the keyboard price to have it shipped.

It might well be worth waiting for a keyboard from the US which will have a familiar layout, rather than having to deal with the different layout of Keys on a UK spec one - take it from someone who has to use Swiss-German at work and UK at home :-&

shiiiiiiit (said in clay davis voice) what is the difference between a UK/US keyboard layout? they never mention that it is the UK version on the link i bought it from that i can find. after they sent me the shipping info though they are obviously based in the UK, which also explains the higher price.

you can probably adjust the Settings>Language and input to appropriate language - I did this on my apple keyboard, I think the @ and " keys were mixed, fixed when I switched from Australia to USA input.

a blue-tooth keyboard is much better than a dock, specially when combine with OTG usb for a mouse, or charging, am i right?

Not if you enter any secure data. Bluetooth keyboards are banned at my employer because all of your keyboard input can be easily sniffed from a surprisingly long distance away. Plus, I don't want more batteries to worry about. The Samsung keyboard dock lets you charge while using the keyboard. I hope to hack it up a bit and embed a USB hub into it as well.

In-Flight (USB/Dock) Keyboard for Note

I just realized one thing I'll miss about my Transformer is having a physically connected keyboard that I can use while travelling by plane. From what I've read Bluetooth keyboards are a no-no for in flight usage. Has anyone used a USB connected mini-keyboard using the Samsung USB adapter? I also know Samsung will be coming out (from what I've read here) with a keyboard dock but it's not available yet. I thought I also read somewhere that the Tab 10.1 dock will work with the Note 10.1.
Has anyone had any luck or a good setup for using an in-flight keyboard setup for the Note 10.1?

Ok, I know everyone will probably gag on this but...
As I was reading this thread, I went upstairs and obsconded (kids dont use it, WTH) the WII Usb KB and connected it. Works fantastic!
If you have one laying around... it may solve your want.

I picked up the official Samsung keyboard dock last week, it works nicely for that purpose!
http://www.samsung.com/au/consumer/...es/EKD-K14AWEGSTD?subsubtype=other-multimedia
Unfortunately, it's expensive and not available in most stores yet. Picked it up from the Samsung store in Sydney CBD.
Just so you know, Australia and USA both use the US keyboard layout (as opposed to the UK, which uses the UK layout), so maybe that could help you guys in the states source one of these? You won't have a messed up layout like you would ordering from the UK. Then again, I don't know any Australian place offering these for shipping internationally so that could be moot.

Very frustrating to not have these available for purchase in the US.

Is it possible to close it? Like the transformer or a regular laptop? Dont feel like not being able to close it..
An extra battery would be nice though incase of very long flights or train/car rides..

It doesn't hinge so you can't "fold" it closed like a regular laptop. Instead you just pull it out of the dock.

I know it has been discussed but I wanted to share my work. Not beautiful but it works. This is the dock for the Tab 10.1 modified for use with my Note 10.1
