So now that everyone's GTabs are on the way, lets focus on the goodies!
Im curious, whats everyones favorite cover/case?
I know I want the dock, but what else is a MUST HAVE? I've even read about a screen protector that improves viewing angle?!?
If you have any good suggestions, please let me know, post the URL for people to purchase etc!
Just received my Skinomi carbon fiber skin. Was very impressed with the material, looks to be the same 3M stuff that "dash kits" use in cars. 24 shipped on amazon. I've heard it sucks to install - but my tab won't be here until Thursday to find out
Right now I have just purchased the "Skinomi TechSkin - Black Carbon Fiber FILM Shield & Screen Protector" from Amazon (Skinomi.com has a larger selection and coupon codes can be found online), based on the reviews there and in a thread over here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=904814) I believe is the best we can buy right now to protect the screen, I went for the full body kit as I have not yet decided on which case I will end with but will most likely be one with a keyboard so I can use it while in class.
I may pick some cheap capacitive pens down the road too just because you can get them pretty cheap and shipped straight to South America where I live
....I am a nOOb so can't post outside links yet....
I'm pretty happy with these...

CLIP - Folio Case
I bought a dock but didn't really find myself using it after I got it so I sold it off on eBay for a tidy profit.
I also had one of those cases with the built-in usb keyboard but found it looked way too cheap and didn't keep the gTab snug so I got rid of that on eBay for a tidy profit as well.
If you want a case with a built-in bluetooth keyboard I highly recommend checking out it2steve's web store for a case he calls the BlutO.
See link here.
As for a small bag to carry all of your gTab accessories, I recommend the Targus CityGear bag for 10.2 inch Netbooks. It fits everything nicely. The only negative about this bag for me is that the shoulder strap is not removable.
I almost forgot about the Skinomi Screen Protector. It is fantastic as long as you follow the directions and let the damn thing sit until it's completely dry after you've applied it (like 24 hours if you can handle it) and you will be rewarded with a screen protector that you can barely tell is there.
I would dearly love to get the BlutO but it's my understanding that it stays sold out.
So far I've ordered the dock from merimobiles, $42.75 with coupon code bienvenu
Needed the lan port for work since we can't turn on wireless due to sensitive client files.
Messenger bag from Bensoutlet dot com $7.98 shipped. Got one that looks exactly like this for my netbook from 1saleaday last year for $10 shipped and hope it's the same one, great little sturdy bag.
Lenovo usb keyboard remote w/ trackball, don't know if it'll work w/gtab or not but for $27 I can use it with something else if it doesn't.
Have a neoprene sleeve to put it in until I decide on which screen protector and cover.
Dern, why did I type all of this out? Now I know how much I've spent LOL

It has the removable shoulder strap and an outside zipper compartment. I can cram a pretty good bit of extra "stuff" in there, adapters, wireless mouse, flash drives, etc.
I have skinomi black carbon fiber skin.
Now I just need some protection for it.

Just wanted to tell you I'm loving your nym
Bought a tshirt for the bf a couple of weeks ago that had a pic of a pig amongst the clouds with the caption "With enough thrust, pigs fly just fine" Hilarious
To make this post legal (and to satisfy my curiosity) how hard are these skins to put on? I bought screen protectors for my nook that I ended up wadding up and throwing in the garbage, couldn't ever get them to go on without steeeenkin' bubbles that irritated the crap outta me.

One more question for you. Do you think that messenger bag would fit a Gtab with one of these cases on it? Or is it already a snug fit with just the Gtab alone?

I can't answer that yet because FedEx still has my gtab
But. I have one that looks exactly like this one that I keep my 10.1" acer aspire one netbook in (has the extended battery) and I am able to put the netbook in a neoprene sleeve and then into the messenger bag and it fits. So I bought another one for the gtab figuring it should work for that as well. If it doesn't I'll be really surprised but won't be out much money at all.
Hope this helps.

Gotcha. I'll give it a shot. Thanks again.
I picked this up and it looks great:
http://www.amazon.com/Acer-AOD250-1...?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1299249594&sr=1-22
Very professional looking and holds the accessories fairly well. There is only the one outside pocket, so things just get thrown in. For under $20 (with amazon prime), who can complain?
I have a Wenger Swiss Army 12" laptop bag that I used for my netbook. Got it at Walmart for under $15. it too has removable strap and a side pocket too.
Anyone checked out this bad boy from belkin? At a whopping $8 it seems like quite the bargain.

Belkin is usually a good product. But here's what I use (in neoprene), just bought another two pack in fact:
http://www.meritline.com/flap-laptop-sleeve-neoprene-black---p-36331.aspx
Velcro flap closure, perfectly servicable and I've always been happy with them. Free shipping too, but you have to be sure to select that option. It does take a some time to deliver due to the fact that it ships from China. Also, these are a bit roomier than the usual stretch-to-fit neoprene sleeve. My netbook won't fit in that kind due to the extended battery.
What can I say, we wimmins love a sale ;->
I plan to wait to get my hands on the tablet (fedex will get it here on Thurs) ... play with it long enough to be certain I want to keep it ... and THEN ... shop for stuff. Else, getting rid of the tablet and all those accessories will be an humbling experience.
BTW, my CC. has a program where they will take back a product if the store does not accept it back. I hope I don't resort to it in this case.
When are they going to come out with some after market sleeves/cases???? I want to spend some money but no one wants to take it. Company's new the TF was coming out for months.
well the short answer is that there aren't any "official" cases for the TF other than the Asus produced sleeve case. after reading reviews and hands-on impressions, i think the case is way overpriced and not all that great. if they charged $15 or $20 for the case, i think more would buy it.
that being said, check this thread a few posts down for the list of compatible cases. i'm in the same boat in that my TF is actually being delivered today and i wont have a case for it. i'm debating on going to walmart or BB or something and just getting a zippered sleeve netbook case just to hold me over until something better comes out. i'll be walking around with the tablet and really fearful of scratching it or dropping it
Well, there are no official ones but other vendors are starting to put transformer in the title of their products as sign of compatibility?
Like this from CaseCrown:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...17145&creative=399349&creativeASIN=B004T655OW
Or if you prefer multi-pocket messenger bag
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...17145&creative=399349&creativeASIN=B004WPPBI0
Or GizmoDorks hard shell EVA case
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...17145&creative=399349&creativeASIN=B004Y214XC
Any cheap case for a 10" netbook will fit fine ;P
well i'm really wanting a portfolio case as i will be using my TF mainly for work purposes at the office. my company bought me one to use, so im wanting to carry this thing to meetings and what not...and i dont want to use a messenger bag thingy to do it.
Check out the cases thread. Lots of price ranges.

yeah i posted there on the last page asking for tips on the kindle dx cases but havent heard from anyone yet. i think im just going to buy a netbook sleeve/zipper case, and then when a true folio case comes out for the TF, i'll just take my netbook sleeve back to the store and return it.

Currently the only folio-type case is the official Asus case. It's a mixed bag -- functionally, it's perfect, exactly what you want from a tablet case. However, it is pricey, and doesn't appear to be built from $40 worth of materials But, it's all we have right now as far as cases built specifically for the TF.
im in the similar situation as someone above.
my TF is delivered today, but i dont have any protection for it. Might just run to Ross and see if i score on a netbook pouch.
what id really like is a silicone skin to guard the back of the unit and a screen shield..
i can then just store it in a case/pouch
CaseCronw is releasing standby case today and it looks promising..i see that the other cases they sell for other tablets have gotten pretty good review.. i just wanted to get some opinions before i jump on this..anyone else thinking of getting or ordered it already?..

Looks nice and under $20. Assuming this is fulfilled by Amazon like their other products, I might have to pick one up.
edit: There's a video in the reviews for the iPad version. Looks great! Tight fit and very thin.
http://www.amazon.com/CaseCrown-App...Y8CR6S3G5&s=electronics&qid=1308957186&sr=1-1
checking out shows $26.56 with tax and shipping.. can this item be fulfilled by amazon at some point? i think i still might jump on this, its still cheaper than most other cases.
Damn, I'm tempted to get this. I've been wanting a good case and I already have a carrying case by case crown. But Roocase's case seems like a better option because its multi angle.
Ill probably pull the trigger on this sometime this week. I just want the thinnest stand case possible. The multi angle is less important to me than being thin and light. Most of the others are bulky and if I wanted something an inch thick that protects the screen I could just just carry the keyboard dock.
The pics on Amazon of the CaseCrown look identical to the case (Jazz) I bought from Steve over at electroniccrap.com..
http://electroniccrap.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=34_36&products_id=51
The flap on the back and the way it tucks, along with the viewing angle and case material seem quite comparable...
I'm happy with the Jazz...fit is good and material is decent, especially given the price point....is rather difficult to type at the given angle...I think I would prefer something with multiple viewing/typing angles and a little better quality material...but again, for the price paid it is a good option...I'm betting the CaseCrown will give similar results...
Ryan...should give you the thin, light case you are looking for...that was my main need and am satisfied from that standpoint...
Is this about the thinnest and lightest we can expect from a fold over case like that?
I'm getting tired of not being able to bring my transformer out due to not having any protection. Stingray, you're making me want this case even more so I hope I'm not disappointed after I order it.
Actually now that I look at it the pictures, it seems like the jazz might even be thinner than the casecrown? It's hard to tell but maybe I'm just seeing things?
Went ahead and pulled the trigger, worth trying for 25.
Finally a case built specifically for the transformer that looks decent! Definitely looking to get this. Can anyone confirm whether or not the tablet docks correctly WITH THE CASE ON?
None of them are built with the case accommodating the dock. It would pretty much require the entire bottom to be cut out.

Has anyone got this shipped yet? It says in stock july 5th?
just thought i'd throw in my 2 cents here. i just bought 10 CaseCrown iPad2 standby cases for upper management at work and they are really nice cases. one of my friend had one and after messing with it, i liked it enough to recommend to the execs. as soon as the case came up on amazon for the TF i ordered one immediately.
i highly recommend CaseCrown.

Got an auto email Friday stating they will ship Jun 27th but got nothing so shouted email to them and they stated they did not have enough stock to meet the preorders, next stock they receive is no later than July 8th. I threatened to cancel so they are willing to discount $3 if I wait till then. I preordered Jun 15.
I am in Canada and don't know how these guys ship so I may get this case by August. HA, HA!
Weird, just checked my email and they state it has been shipped.?

The dock compatibility has the downside of exposing the bottom to possible dust and impact. Only way I see a case supporting dock to be fully protective when undocked is if it had some kind of detachable bottom for when you need to actually dock, Probably would be good if it was held in by tiny pop-in buttons of sorts and with a as small a presence as possible so it doesn't cause any discomfort in holding the tablet.
I just got a transformer last week and I really don't like any of the folio cases available but want to have some kind of protection for when I throw it in my bag. So I was looking into sleeve cases on amazon but reading the reviews people were saying they didn't fit too well, having 1-2" of space so it moves around a lot. Are there any sleeves out there that are specifically made for the transformer or at least fit it decently?
Hmm, maybe I'm cheap but for that, I'd probably just pad it with a towel or a custom cut piece of foam.

I have this one. Fit the TF perfectly + some pockets for accessories.

the asus transformer is 27.1cm by 17.7cm I believe and surprisingly when I was looking for cheaper opinions on ebay it was the cheap as chips option that seemed to be sized as best 'fitted' for the asus's dimensions (in my opinion at least)
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150672438...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649#ht_3393wt_1085
I suppose if it works for what a person needs it for don't knock the 'cheap as chips' ness factor of it!

That's exactly what I was looking for, you have that case then?
I bought this one. Fits perfectly. Adds a zipper side pocket for the charger. Handles have velcro to keep the together. Has 2 plastic pouches inside made for SD cards. The handles come in handy if carrying other things.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Neopr...ltDomain_0&hash=item4cfbac6575#ht_1902wt_1189
Plus it is super cheap. The quality is about 8/10 as the zippers are just a little tough. For the price it can't be beat.
@ FlyingToilets - yes, I've just bought that one as extra extra protection - you can't really going too wrong with something that costs 2 quid
I've also bought this one as a main case (http://www.yourpoetic.com/android-t.../black-slimbook-asus-eee-cases-and-covers.asp) for about £13 at amazon as the main case (the other case I plan to house the asus+portfolio case and a stylus)
I really wanted to get this one (http://www.yourpoetic.com/android-t...ducts/black-red-asus-eee-cases-and-covers.asp) but it is a bit too much in the uk currently
I've only just ordered these so I don't know how good they will be but I'll try and let you know when they arrive!
I got this one for my Transformer and I love it!
Blurex (cant post links yet), just google blurex asus transformer case
Its slim, fits nicely, and feels great. It also lets me easily attach the keyboard while its open, but its not quite large enough to close around while the keyboard is attached and closed, which I don't really mind.
I just picked up a Transformer on Friday night, so just wanted something cheap for the time being to carry it in. There was a sleeve in the Best Buy ad today so I decided to pick one up. I'm very happy with it for $6.
I can't post links yet, but either look at the BB ad or search their website for "HP sleeve" and you'll find it.
I bought that el-cheapo ebay case.
1) Fit - it fits the transformer very well indeed. The long dimension is just right, absolutely would not want to be any less as it's a bit tight to flip the lid on. The short dimension is just fractionally more than would be a really tight fit, but it's so close that you really could regard it as made for the transformer (tab only, I doubt it would fit with the dock).
2) Finish - not so great. Seriously, what do you expect for the price? Within about 3 days some stitching gave way on the red piping , leaving it coming loose from the neoprene. I have repaired it by hand as at the price it really is not worth arguing it out with the seller.
3) Both of the above combine to mean that you need to be careful putting the case on and taking it off your tablet, as it's easy to pull the lid too hard and potentially break some stitching as you stretch the lid over the end of the tablet.
Overall... I am looking for a messenger bag style case for my transformer (and not liking anything I've seen except a couple of crumplers that, as much as I love their products, I am not prepared to pay for. In the meantime, this sleeve provides excellent value for my tablet around the living room and in my laptop bag.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00565T3ZW/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
I am got this one here and I have been very happy with it. It fits perfectly and allows me to stand it up at an angle.
Alright my fellow Canadians, if there are any, if you have a Prime you're probably just as pissed as I am about the lack of anything for this tablet up here and even more so I'm pissed at Amazon for refusing to ship anything here. SO, if you see anything for the TP in/available to Canada, post it up here
pretty sure there aren't any sleeves for the prime yet at all. I went to staples and bought a generic netbook 10.1 inch sleeve from targus. Its a little fat for the prime but I figure it'll fit in there much better when my keyboard arrives (if ever)
Basically. Just take your prime to an electronics store and see which sleeve it fits in
I'm waiting for my Prime, but I've been lurking on this sie for a case too. I was hoping to get that roo-case listed here from Amazon. I haven't tried to order it from Amazon.com, but I did read that they will ship to Canada.
What is their reason not to ship to you?
I noticed a few of the cases would ship from amazon.com to Canada - sadly, not all, but there is some selection.
So far every one on Amazon has refused to ship up here :-( just says sorry can't ship to your address

case logic pls-9
I just got the case today and I must say, it is quite a nice case. It neoprene on the outside and suede on the inside with a pouch on the outside for storing cables and such as well as a small spot for a thumb drive.
If you are looking for a soft case with good padding I highly reccomend it.

Hey guys, email them, you'll get it for next to nothing. Amazon has some stupid requirement that things have to arrive within like 5 - 10 days at max or something like that and the only way for them to meet that is to charge $25 expedited. If yoiu email them and say you're in Canada, the guy told me he'll ship it China Post but it won't be within to 5 -10 but I don't care.
Just email em direct, BCSstore or whatever, originally the guy said just order it, put a UK or China delivery address and tell him the order number with an address in CA and he'll change it. Try it out, I got mine with free shipping and expected delivery is like 10 - 15 I think. I asked the guy if others could email direct he said sure, only issue is availability of stock
On the other hand, wanted one of those matte HHI screen protectors, they sell a 3 pack for $12 and want $24 for shipping, emailed them, they basically told be to get bent
I use this one, got it at Bestbuy for about $9 too.
Not sure if it was the 9" or 10" version
but it fits perfectly even with the dock attached.

I bought this case from Futureshop and it fits well.
Tucano Finatex 10"
http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/prod...spx?path=01bc42bce3cb207837454e115277bf6fen02
It has 2 compartments and the larger one is divided in half where the back half fits the prime alone quite well. The front half would fit the prime attached to the dock or the dock separately. The smaller compartment has a mini pocket in it to hold an iPod or phone sized device with a space for headphones to travel up the strap and exit near your shoulder.
The only thing I didn't like (it isn't specific to this case) is that the USB charger wall wart has no place to go that is not a danger to the screen if the bag gets squished.
2 pages and 20 days later and the OP is still absolutely right on track:

Alright my fellow Canadians, if there are any, if you have a Prime you're probably just as pissed as I am about the lack of anything for this tablet up here and even more so I'm pissed at Amazon for refusing to ship anything here.

I just can't believe how hard it is to find a sleeve/case that fits a minimum requirements.
I'd love to get the Moko, Verteks, Roocase, Vipertek, Blurex slim sleeves (the one at multi-angle, portrait only mode) as they all seem to have the necessary cutouts of ports and speaker, and would allow docking the keyboard without removing the sleeve.
Except, they are ALL unavailable on Amazon.com, and I can't find any of these anywhere else.
Only thing available are the kind of sleeves/cases which cover the front side areas of the tablets which to me, is a no go as these can not be used alongside a dock ; or those like the MiniSuit which doesn't have a stand for the tablet alone.
Worse than that, the same thing goes for the screen shields ! It's impossible to get one here in Canada.
I can't wait to start using my tablet all the time (and get rid of my aging netbook) but I'm just too afraid to scratch it.
Really frustrated at this situation. And I did spend at least 4-5 hours in the past 2-3 days researching all the above.
