So I purchased the Samsung official Book Cover in black listed below from Best Buy on release day for $80.00.

I loved how sleek and slim it is and it seems to work well for auto sleep etc. I need a case with more protection since I put my tablet in my laptop bag with tons of stuff so I bought a couple cheaper cases off Amazon and forgot to return this case in time SOOOO... I'm willing to send this to a good home, if it will be used, for just the cost of shipping!! PM me for details.
Have a nice day!

Noreve make some of the nicest cases I know (for phones) so quite excited to see them release this one.
It is basically like the Moto Portfolio case as far as I can tell and they are saying it will be in stock on 30th April which is a nice and firm date, whether they hit or not is another matter.
Its a little pricey and I can't decide if the PDair series might be nicer for a similar sort of cost.
Anyway just thought I would share the knowledge as I am still tooing and froing between case choices.

Thank you for this! I cant tell if this case has the appropriate charging cutouts. Also looks expensive, any idea if they ship outside the U.S.?

It certainly appears to since it is really only held at the corners. I am not sure it is worth it but from my experience of their phone cases I can vouch for their quality. They ship worldwide or at least many places, definitely uk and Europe and Australia

you live and learn ... at any rate you live
that looks exactly like the new official moto portfolio case
Has anyone bought one of these yet? I can't find any videos of one on YouTube. I can't decide between PDAirs white ugly(ish) stitching or Noreves corner-holding case. The Noreve case looks far prettier to my eye, but I don't think I like the plastic that shows when the case is being used to prop up the Zoom, that and currently it's ~£75.
Decisions, decisions. I am off to NYC at the end of the month and I want a nice case for viewing the Xoom on the plane. If anyone knows of another professional, smart looking case I'd love to hear of it.
*Edit* Okay, I just spent £98 on the Noreve with fast shipping. Probably about £35 overpriced if you include shipping but meh.
same gripe for me as the moto case; why couldnt they just cut a hole for the charger!
Very interested in your experience with it so please keep us posted.

Ten days later, still no case, 3-5 days delivery is what I was quoted when I paid $32.50 for express delivery... Money well spent.
As a follow up, I have e-mailed them today and got a response, after waiting ten days I have to wait another ten days before I will receive it! I paid over $30 for delivery and it will take three weeks to come! What an absolute JOKE, so now I have a $160 case I can't take to New York with me, the whole reason I bought it. And I'm not buying another cheaper one, ~$200 on cases is rediculous. I am so pissed off with them, I don't recommend them at all as far as getting your product in a reasonable timeframe goes.

it has already been 3 weeks since i placed my order, and it still hasnt shipped. after looking at all the other available xoom cases, this is the only one i want... so i wait. i will post photos, and my impressions when it arrives.
Just an update for those of you that might be interested in the Noreve xoom case. They are apparently having production issues right now, with a lot of new cases coming out all at once.
I'll just add to Kalavere's warning that the Noreve case cannot be recommended at this point.

Aye, apparently they messed up the production of the Xoom cases. I got an e-mail from them to say something of the like which is why I now have to wait 3+ weeks to receive mine. I'd steer well clear at least until I get mine which will be sometime before the 6th of June I am told, not that I'm even in the country to receive it, *grumble, grumble...*
@Kalavere
Surely at this point unless you still really want it you could ask for a refund although they do make nice cases they are expensive IMO and in the past I've tended to use PDair whose quality I have always found to be excellent. So far I just have the Motorola gel protector and am not sure what else I'm going to get yet but am considering an easel type stand and a neoprane case as have seen some nice ones on E-Bay and it works out at under £20 for both.

Well I came back from the States yesterday after a week or so away and I still hadn't received it, 28 days later...
I e-mailed them yesterday and demanded a refund, as they will only refund after a 30 day period has passed and you haven't received the product. I got a response this afternoon with a refund. They also had the cheek to respond to my English e-mails in FRENCH. I won't buy another product of theirs again, ~£100 for a case direct from the manufacturer is overpriced, and they are rude and incompetent.
I was forced to buy the official Moto Xoom case from Carphone Warehouse before leaving for the US, and I think I'll be sticking with this one, cheap and it works. I don't use a case at home so it's only for transporting it.
Bottom line, if you really have to buy this case, avoid buying it directly from Noreve like the plague.
I've had the noreve case for a couple weeks, and although it is very well built, it has a very negative impact on the xoom's wifi radio. It cuts my signal in half and web pages take forever to load... or don't load at all. As soon as I take the case off everything goes back to normal. Its weird. Xoom wifi.
Bought a two piece incipio case about two weeks ago, in great condition, nothing wrong with it, but of coarse my parents didn't know and bought me the otterbox commuter case, which is basically the exact same thing, so I'm willing to let this go cheap, it's a great case, esp for about $13. PM for pictures. paypal only.
I would return it but of coarse Verizons great 14 day return policy bit me in the arse again.
Thanks guys.
I finally found a site, they are selling it for $30..

Wish I'd seen this yesterday. I ordered the same case from Amazon for $19.95, but I still need to claim my ebates signup bonus. I'll post a review when it comes in tomorrow.
From what I've seen, this is identical to the Marware case but with fake leather on the lid instead of fabric.
Edit: and I'll never find out. Ordered with Prime early last week, and the seller hasn't shipped yet according to UPS. Cancelled my order and I'll probably buy the Marware instead.
Yeah, it looks just like my Marware case, which I love btw!

Looks like the case a coworker has on thier ipad. hopefully it works as well
I got that case a week ago for 10$ with a coupon. It is disappointing and is not worth over 10$. Back case is molded plastic, front is thin and not too durable felt/leather(?) sandwich that folds back and sort of creates a stand. Bump it and it will fall. Very cheap quality.
the Marware case has no problem sticking to skins that i got from ebay also.. i bought 2 and put one of them around the glass but the other two are on the front and back of the case.. no problem sticking and looks cool... of course you have to take a razor and cut the seam out..
I have this case and so far I love it. Like many people have mentioned it's not the highest quality material but it gives great protection, is functional (love the stand), and looks pretty good. Not only that but it's half the price of the marware one! Would definitely recommend this.
After two orders, finally got one. If your primary use for the KF is to stand in landscape or lie flat on a desk, it's pretty good. The inner felt lining is a nice touch and the backshell fits great and feels solid.
If you do anything at all else with your KF, buy the Marware instead. Even if it's currently $20 more. The big difference between the two is that the Acase's lid doesn't fold all the way back, so you can't one-hand it anymore without the lid flapping around to the left. For my purposes, it's crap. Return'd.
Great deal!
From what I've read the Marware case can be laid down completely flat whereas the Acase has issues with that. They are both designed the same but I guess you get what you pay for. I have the Marware case because it was included in my gift. I'm glad I didn't get the Acase for myself though. That tiny issue would've drove my insane lol.
How does everyone like this case?
The plastic part holds the kindle very well. The flap however, leaves much to be desired. It doesn't close all the way, and doesn't fold behind the kindle properly. There's not enough fabric on the "hinge" so it won't fit flush.
It drives me crazy, and I hate it =P
I ordered both this case and the marware case. I will take pics of both and let you guys know the differences.
Hi all,
I just got a Samsung S2 T989 and I love it. Any recommendation for a good leather case for carrying it on my belt?
I got this from Amazon for my Samsung galaxy player 4.0 but it did not last for more than a couple of weeks
(the belt loops broken, stitches came off etc...):
http://www.amazon.com/Premium-Leath...95&sr=1-5&keywords=leather+case+for+galaxy+s2
So I'd appreciate if you could recommend a good one. Thank you very much
well on the internet I think most cases are overpriced except of course the one you posted. I bought mine at a local chinese mall for $10 and it is pretty good quality. I would recommend you do something similar.
Try a PDAir:

I've got the black one I found on ebay for a few dollars less. Best I've found. Nice strong steel clip. Can be used with a Ditzonic or D30 case. Had it since Feb 12 and holding up extremely well. Very satisfied with it.
A little pricey, but worth the money imo.
It's nothing special but somebody on eBay is selling brand new in package Incipio cases for the G6 for only $2.49. I just got mine in the mail yesterday and it's thin, has good grip, fits perfectly, 3ft drop projection and arrived in 2 days from a US based seller. I think the only color he has available is clear but it looks good imo. I just ordered a second one assuming this one will eventually start yellowing like every other clear case I've ever owned. Nothing spectacular but I thought it was a killer price and wanted to pass it on to anyone looking for a really inexpensive quality case. Here's the link...
