I bought a Belkin one from Staples. Not cheap, but it works well.

The one I'm looking to get is the Logitech M55b, you should be able to get it form amazon.uk.....as with anything, there are good reviews and bad reviews. I'm considering this one above all the rest just for the super fast scrolling, although it will be my first bluetooth mouse, my current MX Anywhere mouse and my previous VX Nano have both had this type of scrolling and now I can't go back!
Razer Orochi here, I'm still waiting for my TF. I'll update this post when I have it! (should be this week)

Anybody tried to use this yet with their transformer, I was thinking of trying it over the PS3 controller because I could use it with my phone as well.
I've got one and it works great using a app called bluez ime then using on snesiod gameboid and n64oid

I've been thinking about getting one, but shipping to the US is pretty steep.
Have you gotten the PS3 controller to work with the Transformer over Bluetooth or via USB(on the dock) only? I'm trying to find a nice gamepad that would work without needing the dock to use.
I would really like to get one of these:

But they are only made in small batches. Orders are done through a pre-order system, and the pre-orders are sold out every time I check.
There's a good review of it here:

That is nice, but the reason I liked the iControlPad is because it is slimmer and will fit in my bag with the transformer better.

I might have to grab an iControlPad myself. I heard about it a while back, but haven't checked on it in a while. Looks like it came together pretty well.
I recently have run into Droidmote. I have a good setup at home but wanted to use my Asus Transformer as the mouse and keyboard. Took me 2 weeks to really find something that worked. Not sure if anyone is interested but I thought this was a cool find. Definitely worth the $2. Just put this on your Photon (or other android device) https://market.android.com/details?id=org.videomap.droidmoteserver
Also posted one of my worst videos of my life posted on youtube lol, due to me being too excited. This is also the same dock I purchased for $29.99 btw

I want a tablet but not sure how much use it'll get. Will the prime play xvid & avi files? Does it have HDMI out of the box or requires a dongle? Compared with what's about at moment and what's coming out this qtr the prime looks best of them. I have never used apple products but understand ipads are limited to playing iTunes stuff? Or for same money as prime should I get a i5 blu ray playing laptop? Thanks if you can help.

The answer is yes. It is easily the fastest, thinnest, tablet on the market right now. For it's price it is very affordable and ICS makes the tablet experience better.
Keep in mind it's not perfect, there's a force close here - a random reboot there. A vocal minority have had wifi & gps issues. My wifi is fine, my gps appears to work (although I barely use it enough to testify). Battery life is average considering the speed/preformance the tablet has.
The keyboard dock is the selling point over every other tablet out there right now. USB, additional battery life, full sized sd (don't forget the microsd on the tablet), and a decently sized chiclet keyboard that I'm typing this very message on.
HDMI works out of the box, assuming you have the appropriate cables to connect to it. Keep in mind it's mini hdmi. Most video formats are supported (no wmv), the dice player app plays them quite well.
No buyer's remourse here, I'm very proud of to own this tablet. Ipads do require everything to be installed through itunes, and you may have to purchase different copies of apps for many iphone apps you bought if you want them on the ipad. Android gives you the app for all your devices with a singe purchase and you have 15 minutes to request a refund if there are any initial problems. Transfering files is as simple as droping them on a flash drive, and box/dropbox work just as well as icloud. Also 3rd party apps can be installed through checking an option in the settings menu - no need to jailbreak.
YES..next question..lol
t3rm3y - is the prime the best tablet?
TFP fanboi - Hell yah it is the best tablet
Plays anything you throw at it and has HDMI out. Keyboard dock is a must imo, if you want to get its full potential.
if my opinion is taken into consideration...which it always is (im kinda full of myself ATM)
YES it is the best tablet on the market right now
Yes among Android tablets so far.

Sweet Evo!!
I have had so many issues with my Transformer Prime to the point I would recommend someone shopping for an non-iPad tablet to go with the Samsung Galaxy Tab. It's hardware is solid, it's built free of physical design defects and it's NOT using an over hyped yet immensely buggy Android 4.0 ice cream sandwhich OS.
Just make sure that when you are not sitting right next to the router you bring a beer can/aluminum foil/cut open the Prime so the wifi doesn't become unusable.
The Galaxy Tab 7.7 is a very strong tablet.
Thanks everyone. Thats all good to hear... regarding the Samsung option.. I don't think it has HDMI out so I can't watch my files on the TV??

For me it is, others may disagree!
Go for it,if you don't like it, you can always return it.
I have the Prime and in the UK I'd say, for the money. it is the best tablet you can buy. In the UK we get it with a keyboard dock (I haven't seen the option to buy without unless you get a US version?) for £500. It has mini HDMI built into the tablet itself, can accept 64GB micro SDXC cards in the tablet and the dock has room for standard SD cards up to 64GB as well as a USB port for memory sticks, HDD's, wired contollers etc etc
Even though it plays alot out of the box I purchased Dice player for movies and prefer to use that.
Some THD games come with 3d stereo compatibility and when connected to a 3d tv atomatically switch to 3d.
A wireless PS3 pad works via bluetooth (once paired) for gaming whilst linked to a tv with an app called sixaxis useful when games don't support game pads.
As you can tell, even with one or two niggles, I am very happy with this Prime and use it more than my desktop pc atm. I even purchased Splashtop THD to access my pc (great for music, films and some games) from my tablet anywhere.
Ive seen the lists of all the best accessories, and seen the reviews of bluetooth keyboards. I want to know what is the best keyboard thats compatible with the prime. Also a case that would accomidate the keyboard as well.
I'd say, you know, the official keyboard/dock.

The Official dock is the best option all around. Why carry around a second bluetooth keyboard which is just a hassle when you can use the dock which has the benefit of extra battery life and expanded memory with a standard sd card.
And a built in USB port.
Looking to expand my game collection on the DNA to some serious games, that of GTA3 & nature. Since the PS3 controller doesn't work (yet:fingers-crossed due to BT stack being all screwy (thanks HTC), any other options available?
There's the moga controller for $50. It's a bit pricey but it works with the DNA.

Yeah, I just found it on Amazon for $32. Curious how well it works. I also saw the Ipega one for $37.

At least you found it cheaper. I don't have one but apparently it works well from what I've read.

Yeah. I've found that Amazon can have some killer deals on some things you might be looking for, namely such.
the moga works well. i got one when they were giving them out for 5 bucks(just pay shipping). i use it from time to time. gets a little weird if you have it linked to a tablet and a phone like i have it for my nexus 7 and dna, but still works. you might just have to delink it and relink it to whichever you want to play at that time. definitely worth the money if you're big into console gaming on android.

Much appreciated for the info. I think I just might be sold on the moga, if it's still in stock by the time I can order it.
I own a Moga controller, use it for my Nexus 7. Pretty awesome gadget to have for mobile gaming!
the moga pro (if same price) might be better. looks way more awesome and probably feels really nice. unless you're going for portability... either one should be good.
I bought a Moga from Wal-Mart so that I could return it if I didn't like it... and I returned it. It irritated me that they went with proprietary support instead of as a general bluetooth gamepad. Most of what I wanted to use it with wouldn't work, and honestly the games that did support it seemed laggy. I'd let go of the thumbsticks and things would still keep moving. It's a shame, cuz it's a really slick controller, and that built-in clip is also awesome, but in the end it just didn't work for me. I also didn't care for the lack of a d-pad (yes, the pro has one, but I like the smaller form factor), and the buttons felt shallow and clicky and required too much pressure to use for my tastes.
I also tried the Nyko Playpad, and while I felt it was a better controller by having a d-pad and two more L/R buttons which were analog, I never got to actually use it because the damn thing didn't work at all on my DNA no matter what mode I used. My phone would "connect" to it, but the gamepad would still keep blinking at me as if it hadn't connected, and it never worked even for a moment.
Note to HTC: if you want to sell phones, stop needlessly f***ing them up. I love my phone, but I hate what they and Verizon have done to it... it'll probably be the first and last HTC phone I ever own, and that's a real shame.

Aside from my last post, has anyone tried a bluetooth gamepad that actually works besides the Moga? I'm dying to get my emulation on with a gamepad, and without root and roms I can't use my previous go-to, my PS3 controller. Actually, has anyone tried a PS3 controller through USB? I'm really curious to know what people have tried and what works with gamepads and the DNA.
the ps3 controller works with sixaxis app don't think it works with usb though.

It does not work on the DNA. Did you even try it?
He's right about the Bluetooth. I haven't tried it using CM yet, will probably try it later on today.

I have been enjoying using my PS3 controller on my phone for a while. Does the bluetooth stack have anything to do with firmware? If so it probably works for me because I'm running an AOSP ROM. I didn't try it on the stock ROM before I flashed a new one.
bump.any luck with any Bluetooth controllers on stock Rom with DNA? thanks
