Re: Good Bluetooth keyboard?
I've been using a Logitech Tablet Keyboard, also the Zagg Folio case works really well. Good thing to look for is one with a mechanical-type action [which both of these have, vice the bubble-style, which wears out quickly and is not accurate]; the decent ones [like the ones I just mentioned] pair easily, and will last for a while.

Cases with keyboards (bluetooth or USB) suggestions / comments

So there are a couple cases out there with integrated (or designed around) small form factor keyboards (i.e. electroniccrap.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=21). Who out there owns a case like this, and what are your thoughts? I'm open to either bluetooth or USB, I just want some first hand responses from those that currently own one.
Thanks!
Had a case with usb keyboard. Used it for a while for lengthy typing sessions but the keyboard was too small for me to use for long periods without my hands getting really tired. Plus, that case was made with really cheap shiny plastic so it looked awful. In the end I bought a mini keyboard that was slightly bigger than the one in the case that also had a multi-touch touchpad on it.
I haven't used the BluTo but I would assume I would have the same complaint about the size of the keyboard being too small for my man-hands. But from reading it2Steve's review on the BluTo the build quality sounds much better than the usb one I've owned.

Which keyboard do you use now? Do you just put your tablet on a stand in front of the keyboard?

I have a CLIP case so it acts as the stand. And I use the mini-usb keyboard from Gear Head with the multi-touch touchpad. I only gripe about this keyboard is that it doesn't have a right-shift key but I noticed that a lot of mini-keyboards don't have it either.
GearHead Mini-USB Keyboard
I am using the Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 6000. Works great on the Vegan Gingerbread Rom. Mouse is a little frustrating, but that is what a finger is for.
I think I have the same keyboard case that was mentioned before. I'd link to it but I'm new but just do a search on ebay for gtablet keyboard. I think it's pretty good for how much it cost ($26 as of this writing) when you're doing heavy typing and the fact you dont have to lug around another piece of hardware separate from the tablet around. I also have the clip case too which is great when you want to travel light.
I'm using the case with USB keyboard found on Amazon. I was interested in the BlutO but got tired of waiting for them to be in stock, and then finding them sold out each time. Very frustrating.
I haven't used it too much yet, but so far it's great for my uses, as well as being less than half the price of the BlutO. It's small enough that the G Tab and case fit in a carrying bag made for 10" Netbooks.
A lot of the reviews on Amazon fussed about the white stitching, which I agree looks tacky. I solved that with a Sharpie marker.

I don't think Steve has ever had the BluTo in stock yet. The last update I got was that they were still stuck in customs.

What's your pairing code? i just got the same keyboard, but can't pair it.
i have the 27 dollar amazon one..
hi
i just received the 27 dollar amazon one...

1. leather is defn not real.. but not bad.
2. keyboard keys are smaller, but not bad.
(i have a question, is there a way to disable the on screen keyboard popping up every time i click into a text box?)
all in all, with the built in kick stand, which is perfect for keeping an awesome viewing angle, its a great buy. Shipping is slow. but worth the wait.
I am going to test out, not bringing my netbook with me, just the gtab with this case alone... i am tempted to get a USB hub, so i can bring a wireless mouse though...
Active Keys with the new OTA update?
I got one of the USD keyboards from XiLi the China link. It took just under a month to arrive but fits well. I have the latest OTA update on the Gtab and find the E key opens my email and the g key opens my browser when I have Color Notes open.
Do I need a translator of some kind to recognize the inputs? New update claims to make the Gtab open to USB keyboards. Kind of strange.
I would love to get a case like the one on Amazon that included a Bluetooth keyboard instead of a USB one. It seems like a shame to tie up a USB port and worry about a cable to it that might protrude. Since the gTablet supports Bluetooth, it seems like that would be a better solution. Does anyone know of a case with bluetooth keyboard that is the same size as the gTablet?

Last time I paired a keyboard you just pick a code and type it in followed by the enter key (enter it first on the android side). This was with CM7 and an older Microsoft bluetoooth keyboard.
I would be interested in stuff like this too.
What about the Ipad bluetooth keyboard cases?
There are quite a few Ipad bluetooth keyboard cases as low as $30 now. Anyone have any luck getting one of these to work with the gtablet?

BT Keyboard Recommendation

I am expecting my S to be delivered soon and I am looking for a recommendation for a bluetooth keyboard. Suggestions?
Thanks,
Roger
Logitech makes a great bluetooth keyboard for Android. It comes in a hard shell case that opens up to serve as a stand for the tablet. I'm a big fan of mine.

[Q] Logitech Tablet Keyboard for Android

I just bought the TFP from TigerDirect 2 weeks ago and it came as part of a bundle that included this bluetooth keyboard and stand from Logitech.
http://www.logitech.com/en-us/keyboards/keyboard/devices/8232
While this does look pretty cool, I am debating opening it or not as I may sell it to put towards the actual keyboard dock from Asus as I really like the one I had on my original Transformer.
Has anyone used this Logitech keyboard and have any opinions or insight into it?
I bought one for $49 and was impressed with it.
Even though I have the TP keyboard dock, I would still use the Logitech for a back up or something to leave in my office.
I picked this up from woot.com like 2 weeks ago for like $25. I just got it yesterday. Woot takes forever to send stuff. I tested it out and it works great. A little hard to get used to the location of the Android shortcut buttons but still a pretty sweet keyboard. I don't use the stand as I use a Mojo case. I do like how the case doubles as a case for the keyboard though.
Only downside I can see is that the power switch for the keyboard is exposed while in the case. So if you throw it in your bag, it has the potential to turn itself on. Oh, and one more downside is that it takes 4 AAA batteries. Doesn't have a built in battery pack.
Still a great item overall.

seems like a nice lightweight keyboard, but personally, i find the dock to have much more utility to it.
however, since it seems to go for so much lower than retail i wouldn't bother selling it, but just buying the dock and having a backup BT keyboard.

Bluetooth Keyboard

Any Bluetooth keyboard recommendations? I've been looking at the Logitech.
I love this one: http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-...KNP4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1336699115&sr=8-2

I bought the Logitech and it works pretty nice. The keyboard case works nicely as a tablet stand as well. I paid 50$ for it at Best Buy. I didn't figure I needed the USB port or extra battery life that you get for another 100$ with the docking station. Plus, its a couple inches wider so it works better for my large hands. I can also use it with any other android I have that is Honey Comb+ while the docking station would only work with this tablet.

Keyboard case recommendation

I picked up the GNP 12.2 relatively "cheap" for $449 refurbished by Samsung as a easy, portable laptop replacement for my HP2000. All I really do away from my desktop is email, web browsing, Facebook, Tapatalk, Youtube, Netflix, and a handful of things that Android handles well, and it works great.
My current case is a $15 eBay cheapy that I am not happy with... What I am looking for is a recommendation for a case that has a keyboard and can be used as a plain tablet case in your hand, lap, or stand up on a table w/o the keyboard, about 50/50 usage each way, without completely swapping cases.
I was hoping for an option under $50 and was looking at the Khomo keyboard case with swivel or a Moko BT keyboard case on Amazon.
Any recommendations on something else or anyone using either of these cases?

I can highly recommend the Logitech Keyboard pro. Ok. It's expensive but it's worth every cent!
Have a look at youtube, there is a test.
I am very happy with my Logitech pro KB.
In combination with the Logitech ultrathin touch mouse the Galaxy is a perfekt office.
For keyboard cases specially designed for the Note Pro, the Logitech is great.
Still, I would love to have a keyboard with trackpad since many times the combination of Keyboard and touch screen is very inefficient and I don't want to carry a mouse.
There are generic Chinese cases with keyboard and trackpad but they look cheap to me (not only in the price).
Asus has a great BT piece called ASUS Transleeve Keyboard 90XB00HP-BKB090 or 90XB00HP-BSL070 that comes with a folding cover to place the tablet at the correct angle but I don't know if it will fit the Note Pro well.
Also, the keyboard is intended for a Windows tablet so maybe the multimedia keys will not function properly in Android.
