Just wondering if anyone has bought a desk stand for their Transformer, any to recommend? I've searched and although I didn't see one specifically made for the Trans, there are some universal stands available.
I don't want the official keyboard attachment, thought I'd better mention that just in case.
There is one on amazon (US though). It's perfect and everyone keeps asking where I got it from. I fits any tablet really. There's a thread on the XOOM forum somewhere

I think I've seen that one in a search result, how do you find it for stability? I'd hate to have something that's easy to topple.
There's loads on Amazon but none particularly cheap. Cheapo option is to use a picture frame or plate stand. Sounds stupid but they do the job. It's not like you'll see them once the pad is on it. Either that or you could make one yourself if you're handy with tools, and don't burn down the house.

That thing is stable as a rock! I put it every where... I even keeps my TF upright when it's standing on the mattress at night! It has padded rubber feet and the same rubber at the part where the tablet rests so it cannot slip easily. Well worth the money and it's foldable....

Thanks for the recommendation. I just received mine today and it is working great so far. Super stable.
Good grief the prices for the Arkon stand range from just under a tenner to £37.58! Someone's having a laugh!
Told ya. This one looks kinda funky though: LINK Can't see why it wouldnt work with the tf.

Its been reduced to $12, decent price really.
The biggest issue with that stand (I have one) is that you can't really have the charger connected whilst it is sitting on it.

Why cant you have the transformer's port at the top, and plug it in that way? The screen will adjust fine. You need a usb 3.0 extension cable of course though.

For that reason, plus it looks butt ugly!
What I'd really like is a small plug, with the cable coming out of the side (if you know what I mean!).

Yeah it doesnt look pretty but gets the job done. Sounds like you might be interested in the official eee pad dock that has been rumoured to be on its way.

So as promised here are the pictures and a couple of videos of my transformer mounted in my 2007 BMW 335i. I used a Pro Clip and Pad Tab to install it. Also used a blackberry gateway to connect the audio via bluetooth to my car stereo. All the wires mess is hidden in the arm rest compartment. So far its great and sturdy as you can see from the videos, loving my transformer even more now

Kudos. I'm going to start trying to make a mount in my car that I wont have to attach anything to the actual TF. This looks awesome tho.
Wow this is def FTW. Did u have to glu that to the back of the transformer
NICE!
I'm going all out and building an actuating mount arm that rises out of a center arm console for trucks/vans/SUVs. I've got the design on paper now for the fun =]

Pro clip for your specific car can be bought from www.proclipusa.com and Pad Tab can be bought from www.thepadtab.com
I might have to do this in my Challenger. Looks like they do have the vent attachments for it.
best part of this thread was now we dance alors remix in the vid LOL
I'm hoping to do this today actually. I have an 06 325i. I wanna mount my nook color. Can you help me make sure I order the right parts? Looks like the pro-clip site makes it sound like I need a mount and a holder. Did you simply replace the holder part with the pad tab?
I know this will come across as lazy rather than cautious, but would you be kind enough to help me get what is needed for the nook color? I'm really hoping this isn't going to be a pain in the ass with my car being a 6 speed standard.
Awesome work. I've been drooling over this since you posted it!
So I just ordered the pad tab for $25 shipped.
Then it's only the MOUNT from pro-clip that I need, NOT the holder right? If so I'll be good to go

Yup the Pad Tab replaces the holder, We have to go this route because pro clip doesnt make a specific holder for the transformer or the Nook color as of now. Let me know how it goes and post pictures when done

Also make sure when ordering the mount that u order the right one, is your bmw with navigation? do u want an angled mount or a straight mount like mine is? Here are the ones for your car:
http://bit.ly/jgydgd
Thanks. Yeah I want the straight one to avoid bothering my stick shift. I don't like that it covers the DTC button, but realistically I'd never DTC with a tablet mounted anyway haha.
I ordered it earlier this morning. I looked more carefully at your pics and they answered all my questions....DERP!
I'll post pics once it shows up.
I ordered the wood trim since that's what I've got, but how the hell would it be any different than the aluminum trim? I was planning on replacing the trim with carbon fiber eventually, so now just one more hurdle. No biggie!
This looks amazing man. I'm really tempted to get this set up for my 02' RL. Is it pretty sturdy during driving?
Who's gonna be wrapping there prime in one of these

I'd consider it if it wasn't for the two small boys. Regardless, it is a pretty ingenious design. Still, I wouldn't be comfortable without their being additional protection from something like Skinomi's screen and body protector films.
I've been waiting for this to show up on Amazon's US site, or another major US distributor. Not sure I want to order the thing from Germany, as I have a feeling that by the time that it gets shipped from the German Amazon, it will have shown up elsewhere and I'd be able to get faster/cheaper shipping.
nope, no need for that, the dock will do the trick.

That's only if Asus fixed the charging issues with the dock. With the TF101, it is not really a good idea to keep the thing docked all the time as you'll drain the dock's battery and could possibly damage it. On the TF101, it is better to only have the keyboard plugged in when you are using the keyboard or the tablet is very low on battery, but the dock is charged.
I think that it's up in the air right now in terms of whether it will be a good idea to store the TF201 docked.

the dock will charge the pad only to about 90% then wait until it drops to about 70.
So I guess that won't be a problem
The dock sucking the battery from the tablet was fix by Asus in an update, Iknow, I had it.
Yes the battery on the dock is still leaking (I have an early model, they could fix it if I send it back to them but it doesn't bother me that much) but it doesn't drain power from the tablet anymore.
And I'm pretty sure those issues aren't there at all in the Prime.

dont know but there have got some trademark or patent for something on the smart cover. it might just be method of attachment or even the name
Since this attaches magnetically, won't it interfere with the Prime's built in e-compass, like cases with magnetic closures did with the TF101?
I'm unable to tell, but it almost looks like this could hold the tablet up in a portrait orientation?
Or is my brain just telling my eyes what it hopes to see?
What's interesting is that the only information that we have on this is from Amazon.de. On the product page, there is no mention of the method of attachment, and there are no images showing the back of the smart cover, or how it attaches. My guess is that if this is not magnetic, they might use the two slots that the dock hooks into to attach the cover.
I would be happy either way, but what would make me really happy is if they put the smart cover up for pre-order and started shipping out units. Has anyone found a US site that has the smart cover on pre-order?

Wow, I totally nailed that one! I don't really care one way or the other, since neither take up much physical space. What I really would like is to get my pre-orders straightened out and for someone to sell me one of these 'transleeves'.

But ill definitely be grabbing some HDMI cables and chargers from there.

I ordered one of these and just received it today. It's great. It's fits nearly perfect on my prime, although the hole for front facing camera needs a little adjustment (a small bit of the case is noticeable when using the camera, but after adjusting the case a little, everything is fine). The case looks great, and it's really easy to remove the keyboard and everything. Thanks for posting and thanks to the OP for the coupon info. Have a good one!

Does the Prime close completely when docked and using the case? I've read reports of similar cases having this issue and leading to an unexpectedly dead battery.

Not sure if it closes as much as before, but I know it closes enough to turn off the screen and sends me back to the lock screen. Haven't had any issues with the battery draining while not in use. I would think that if anyone was having issues with closing their prime with this case on, that they may not have the case on correctly, or the dock connected properly. Have a good one!

Hello Guys!
I just bought my LGOG and I'm waiting for it in the mail. While it arrives, I've been looking for a dock that supports the phone but haven't found anything yet.
Have you guys know of any Dock that works and fits this phone? I was thinking of getting one of these but I'm not sure it will fit since it's for the S3:

What do you guys think?
yeah I`m about ready to order a desktop dock for a note or note 2 and try it out, I just want it for my night stand, like this one its suppose to have a compliant mico usb so it will flex and move with different thickness of phones still on the fence about it

or one like this
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2032180&CatId=4975
Yeah i only need a dock for charging the phone on my night stand, so i guess a cheap one would do the trick. If no one has tried one yet I guess I'll have to buy one myself to try it out.

Probably be easier to get the coil from the Palm Pre (and cheaper to get parts). But I don't think it charges via the qi standard and you would have to use the TouchStone Charger.

Anyone have tips on making a charger stand or dock?
I basically have to have my watch on its face to charge.
Mine charges perfectly fine.. Never need to put it on its face.
I have the gunmetal with the brown leather band. I'm able to set it upright on the band with the band open. It doesn't look great but at least it's face up.
Would a *spit* applewatch stand work, or would the weight of the watch cause it to fall off? Could mould a disc from plastic or something to fit the circle and poke the charger through for the Zen?
You could use a simple wooden dowel with a 45° angle and screw the charging kit on top. (it looks like the old charging kit doesn't fit and we have to wait for a new version)
Built one
I've got the same Idea and built a dual Charger today. Looks great and works great, too

Dude that is flipping sweet. In fact I think I will make that tonight. My phone wirelessly charges, so I would want to have a hole on the base to fit the puck. I actually think I would like the phone to be inclined with a footer, so I can just drop it without having to worry about alignment.
Wow what a great idea. It would make great gifts too.
The only problem I would have is I have a metal band that doesn't open, so I would have to make a L bracket so I can slide it over.
Thanks. Pls upload a picture of your finished work
If you want to go cheap I found 2 projects on Thingiverse. In my current city there are no 3D printer (checked on 3dhubs.com), once I'll come back to the University I'll try to print something.

Yes, I actually bought two. It worked perfectly in two different watch stands.
Has anyone found a source for spare charging cables yet? Google Store doesn't allow me to put in cart... Must be because I'm in Canada. :/

I am in the same boat. Would love a spare charger for at work.
hopefully ebay will have these soon enough.
Side note: do you find your watch has horrible connection distance/ always disconnects?

Yes, yes I do. One of the things I have found that helped a bit was to go into the Battery in the Settings, hit the 3dot menu, go into Battery Optimization and stop optimizing Android Wear. Hasn't solved the problem, but it has helped.
Either this is an issue with the Nexus 6P's bluetooth or the Zenwatch 2 is screwing bluetooth up big time. I've been having issues with my bluetooth headphones and with uConnect in my truck too. Eventually I need to take the ZenWatch 2 out of the equation and see if my BT problems go away. But it's been bad.

You can use this with any Apple Watch stand and you have one for under $30.

Thanks for this. I ordered mine from Amazon, and was surprised how well it worked. Bought an elander stand to go with it and it's pretty well perfect. Only wish there was more hardware/software support for this watch, as I'm finding that there isn't a lot out there for it. Shame too, because I think it's a very underrated watch.
If I may make a suggestion, the imprinted logo on the bottom doesn't make for adhering a sticky patch on it all that great.
