I picked it up at BB, it's an Incase Nylon Sling Sleeve for MacBook Pro 13". I like that it has room for not only my Xoom, but also the keyboard, a few cables, and even a few file folders. It has handles that tuck away if you want to, as well as a nice padded shoulder strap. Just got it yesterday, but I think it will work out great!
Now tied in with Sugarsync and the new Quickoffice Pro HD, I have ALL my work files everywhere I go!
How much was it looks great
Great job. You took all the right pictures. Incase makes fantastic products. Their only problem is they mostly cater to apple.

Just bought the bag. Best buy online has it on sale for 47.99. Had to make the store price match it.

I feel like there's too much room in that bag for the Xoom. Is that true? Like... will the Xoom slide around or anything inside of it? Also, what kind of case do you have on the Xoom?
The pocket where you'd put the Xoom is a little bigger, but not much. It does not slide around cause of the thick felt padding it has. Feels very secure.
The way the bag is made keeps it from "sliding" around, it is larger than the xoom (a file folder fits in there perfectly), but no excessively so. I think it works, for now, until something Xoom specific hits the market!
Nice Find atoy74! I paid like $60 for mine, but had some Reward Zone money so didn't pay that much out of pocket. I know they have it on Amazon too.
Oh yeah the shoulder strap is long enough to use the bag like a messenger bag too!

Do you guys think that this case would fit the xoom? The iPad 2 dimensions are 241.3 mm(h) x 185.67mm (w) and the xoom is 249.1mm (h) x 167.1mm (w). The case is made for the iPad 2 camera to fit in the right places, but do you guys think that the xoom would fit in like an iPad 2 sleeve? Let me know your ideas.

I bought it in store, for 30 but will be going back today to get my 15 dollar refund, it is super nice to get me by until a good portfolio case comes out.
i got the $15 HP case in store at Best Buy Tuesday night. Not bad, little too big for my taste (I used to have a very snug iPad case that I LOVED)
The S3 will be my first android phone worth putting a case on. My MOTO DX2 is a beast and never needed one.
I dont like cases on my electronics. Ive had good luck for many years though. Never broken a screen on a smartphne.
Since I dont like cases I saw these sleeves and had to have one. They are the same material as maserati and porsche interiors. As a car junkie i couldnt pass.
Ordered one in grey for my white S3. It should be a cool look.
anyone had experience with these? or sleeves in general? Like? Dislike?

Its a piece of cloth sewn together for over $30. Thats the way I see it. I dont see how its any more or less functional than the $10 ones on ebay.
But I'm not saying they are bad, just saying I wouldnt get one!
yeah, its whatever though! everyones different
have you ever used a sleeve before vs a case, wonder?
i ordered one of these , as keeping the case away from your skin by a few millimeters cuts down the emissions by heaps

I didn't get my case, yet but I have search results based on Google.

They're expensive, but Vaja has one small leather case out already, and I'm sure they'll design more with the relative similarity between carrier devices, and the number of buyers across the world.
The first one they've come up with is $70, which sounds really high, but I can tell you from experience that these things are inSANEly well-made. They're probably hand-stitched by one 85 year-old lady in Venezuela, but their cases are awesome.
Cheaper one

I can't post URLs yet, but I got a leather carrying case on Amazon for about $6.
I got this one. I love it because vertical position is a must and also the clip can rotate. It does leave some black marks on the back of the phone but nothing is perfect
The $5 & $10 cases on ebay /amazon are not real leather.
I am also interested in some real leather options. A search showed "hoco" as an option, they look pretty slim too.

I've had an Easecase (a different model from the one the OP ordered - I think mine is a B1) for my HD2, S2 and now S3. They're really well made, fit perfectly and you get a choice of leather, lining colour, closure system etc, I do look at other ones available but in the end I always end up getting their stuff

Seconded! I don't have one for my S3 (yet), but I've been considering the Grip or the Pouch they have on their site.
I've bought their cases for past phones and not only do they look great, but they're very durable. The price-point is a little painful, but well-worth it in my book.
Might as well ask this here. But do any of you guys (yea guys on this one) carry around a wallet case? I was gonna get a SGP Valentinus black for my SGS3 but I got to thinking, maybe it seems a little feminine. I wanted one cuz it would mean for me to not carry a wallet around. I wanted either the Valentinus or the Argos. What you guys think

You can use Capdase leather case. Maybe some of them got wallet design. But recently, they use a frame to hold the phone and neglect those wallet layer. Sigh........
is it genuine ?

was browsing the internet earlier looking for a new case for the phone and came across this website. The cases look to be in good shape and if you can forgive all the typos (obviously from China) it sounds like they are decent quality. Has anyone used one before? I bought it off a third party unfortunately, so I don't know yet if I made a good decision but it was only twenty bucks so if it falls through i'm not out much. What do you think? http://rockphone.cn/en/products_det...5&id=1013&year=0&month=0&pmenuid=0&pbrandid=0

well, true. I didn't purchase this particular case it was a book-flip case like the SGIII has. Still not sure if it was a good idea but oh well.

this is the actual case I bought.
I like the second Flip Book style much more, also much nicer colors.
Not my type of case i dont see the point of having a flap in the way all the time. But thats just me!

well man I mean, I do like the style of the flap design... I'm just worried about dropping mine... I have the Otterbox Defender, and believe it or not... it too has it's defects!!! My phone has been untouched... but man my case is getting torn up!!!
I like to use a neoprene sleeve (or something similar) for traveling with a tablet. Has anybody found one that fits well? Most of the ones I've found are either too big or possibly a little too small. Seems like one designed for an e-reader might work.
I bought for my G Pad a 8" Yarvik sleeve, but as almost every 8" tablet, the Yarvik sleeve is designed for those squarer 8" (our G Pad is more like a rectangle). So in for height the G Pad fits great, but in width there is a lot of empty place, so the tablet inside is moving to the sides. Still better than nothing though...

No Neoprene but fits perfect
wrong thread - please delete.
Samsung 7-8" Pouch Stand
It's not a sleeve pocuh, but I love its functionality and cost (in Spain 10-15€). It's available in 3 colors, I have grey and lime, for my Galaxy Tab 7.7 and for my G-Pad 8.3. The Galaxy Tab 7.7 fits perfectly, but the LG is a bit taller than pouch, about 5mm. It fits very good, but maybe the top of the tablet exceed over the pouch.
I recommend you the pouch because its functionality, the size is not a real problem for me.
"Samsung Stand Pouch 7-8" (I can't post links because I'm newbie).

I bought this one and it arrived today. Big disappointment. It's very tight and it's hard to get the tablet in and out. It's pretty much useless as a stand, and the flap does not close when the device is in the case. I put in a return request already.
Here are a couple that I am looking at.
This one kind of looks good but concerned it may be too big / bulky.
http://www.amazon.com/Optimus-Protective-sleeve-messenger-Black/dp/B00GVHUP1K/ref=sr_1_111?ie=UTF8&qid=1386732131&sr=8-111&keywords=lg+g+pad+8.3
This one appears to be more of a pouch / case to accommodate accessories along with the tablet. Nice but pricey. Still tempted though
http://www.sfbags.com/products/tablet-cases/travelcase-tablet.php
This last one is actually designed for the Mac Wireless keyboard. I actually own one of these and the G Pad fits perfect width wise, but the sock is too tall / long by about 2 1/2 inches. It can be folded in if desired. It's nice material and soft. Still a little pricey in comparison to the first one.
http://www.sfbags.com/products/keyboard-cases/keyboard-socket.php
Tough deciding. May go with the last one if I can convince my daughter to shorten it and sew the end back up for me.
I've got this one: <amazondedomain>/gp/product/B008H3MOY2/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Though maybe only available in germany and not made of neoprene but some fabric (which I like much more, btw). Fits rather tight in length and has 1-2cm space in width, i.e. seems to be meant for some 7" tablets.
Sorry for the missing amazon.de domain... my first post and i'm not allowed to specify external links...?
I got this one at 5 below in New Jersey. It is a perfect fit but I did have to remove the Velcro from the inside and make a strap to latch it shut.

i just ordered this one as i was looking for a leather sleeve, not a neoprene as they are too stretchy. i will let you know how it fits when it arrives but i believe it is custom fit for the g pad.
Neoprene cover
I bought the one above a year ago for my N7.
I'm now using it for my G pad. The fit is perfect. Be aware that it is quite bulky, but it's great quality and even has an extra pocket for accessories.

I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts about it when you receive it. I've been looking at it too but have yet to find any other seller selling it. I can't order from this one because they don't ship to Sweden.

Haha that is a first!
We have something you don't in the US!
It's a bit shocking how limited the accessories are for the gpad. With luck my new VOIA jelly case will be here from the US by the end of the month. That's only 6 weeks........
I'll have a look on the US Amazon site and see if I can spot it for you as I'm sure it's a rebadged generic case, even if it's very nicely made.
