Thanks.
I try looking for universal cradle.
I had the same problem. I solved buying "idapt", wich is a 3 slot universal charger, and so me, my wife and my daughter are ok with just one charger. Little bit expensive but on my opinion it is worth. The only nuisance is the liquid stand on the cradle facing backward, as the usb miniport is mounted flipped...
I had been trying to find out what type of port the Viewsonic G Tablets docking port was and couldn't find the answer on the web. But i kept looking at it and couldnt help but see that it looked alot like the iphones charging port. So i tried a stock apple usb charging cable and to my disappointment it didn't fit. But for the sake of curiosity and frustration over not having a docking station that was easy to get in the U.S. I tried wearing down the sides of my old plastic energizer portable charger adapter for the iphone and after some work it fit. The pins even seemed to line up right with each other. My only problem is that i have no way to test if i actually works. So if anyone has and old usb iphone cable and dremel to grind down the sides like i did you can test to see if it is the iphone stock charging port customized not to fit the iphone cable. If anyone tries this please post back because i'm ordering cables to try it myself.
I will buy one Ipad cale to test.
I will buy one 30pin-HDMI adapter for Ipad to test if it is suitable for Malata Zpad..
Not sure if yo have seen the threads but there is a dock available and the same company is still working on a straight cable for hdmi out.
We will keep you guys posted on developments as you are not the only ones wanting them. Keep an eye out for docks here in the next few days.

The dock is available from some distributors in china and made for the ZPAD by Malata (I think). I got one last week and all tested well.
I'm hearing that there may be a few dock floating around here soon for quicker purchase in the US but don't know much more than that.... yet.
Hey guys, so did anyone ever get the g tablet to charge from an iphone cable?

Nope... We have all tried over and over with no luck. it's a proprietary cable that took developers a long time just to get the hdmi out
...sent from my 'un-stock' g2x
Get a ready made HDMI docking port
Go to merimobiles.com and order a Malata HDMI docking station for the Malata and Viewsonic gtablet. It's 45.50 US including freight.
I ordered mine on Sept. 6th. got it Sept 20th certified mail from merimobiles.com.
Anyone pick up a car power adapter yet?
Getting the bugs worked out of my GPS, now I need an adapter...
Here's the car mount I picked up...
It's a 12V device so you don't need anything except a plug that will fit and a power port adapter. Tip is positive. You can make one from parts at Radio Shack if you wanted to.

Correct... I might have to do that if there's not an actual power adapter ready to go for the Tab.... I might take a look at the assortment of Igo adapters.
I really like that mount, seems like it fits really well. What is it and where did you get it?

I haven't tried it, but I saw this one listed at Radio Schack:

It has the same volt/amp rating.

I got tired of buying new adapters for each device I buy especially as usually need USB power for Droid1 + whatever else so went with a simple dual out with inverter...

I recall you posted about that in the ZT-180 section. In fact, I think that I inspired you to find it.
I don't know if these tablets can be charged through the USB, like phones can.
Picked up the one from RS that wasserkapf mentioned....
Had to get a seperate tip because the 4 in the package didnt fit...
Worked fine.... Thanks for the feedback...
Where did you get the extra tip?

You would not use the USB for Gtab. Instead used your AC 110 adapter that came with Gtab and plug it in the 110 outlet.

Just picked up a car DC adapter from BigLots for 4$. It is a vector VEC009. It comes with multiple tips and one works perfectly.
Found a link online.

Here is the proper link to that adapter:
http://www.amazon.com/Vector-Mfg-VEC009-Universal-Adapter/dp/B000B76UUQ
The price is right, but if a similar one is available locally, at a reasonable price, I would encourage people to buy locally. By supporting local merchants, you help ensure that they survive. It is also easier to return to a local merchant if you have problems with a product.
Thanks.. what is the wattage on this one? Does it deliver the full 2amps that we need? I have a 1.5 amp one and it gets hot fast.
as low as $5.18 on ebay

$5.18 shipped from ebay.
and $6.48 shipped as well.
One thing to ask about though, the specs says max 2A, did you confirm it supplies 2A @ maximum voltage 12v ? were you able to charge the GTab while the it running with blutooth enabled ? The thing is if it doesn't supply the required 2A, the battery might no be charged properly if at all when the GTab is powered up.
Thanks,
I was able to charge the tab while it was running. You adjust the voltage to 12volts and attach the proper tip. For 4$at big lots it was worth checking out.

Thanks for your reply I already ordered one for $5
Hello everybody,
im searching for a "normal" hdmi-cable for the 30-pin connector. i dont wanna have a dock or something.
does anybody know were i can find such cable?!
I have send the DOCK sample to the manufacturer, to make a 30pin--HDMI cable out.
But need sometimes. About 15days later.
XJARL,
Are you sure a cable is possible? Others have suggested that the port needs power and other circuitry (as in the dock) to make the HDMI functional.
Also, I thought that you mentioned you were having it made a month or so ago? What is the delay?
That would be great if there was just an HDMI cable that plugs into the bottom port. too bad they didnt make a HDMI port on the side before. I wont use it enough to get a dock, but if I had just a cheaper cable that would work I would be more inclined to use it. the screen is big enough to where im happy with the media and any movies that I really want to download and watch I will already have on my laptop which has HDMI out for a big screen.
Yes, i'm sure

I had given the DOCK to a factory. They spend a lot of time. Since they are not sure whether there is sufficient market, so delayed. But now, they decided to put it produced.

I went to 4 Shacks and everyone said there was nothing made for this port. Commercially that is.
I think I would find a cable more useful than a dock. As mentioned above, though, they will have to find a way to deal with the power issue. I'll keep an eye on this thread to see how it goes.
A cable would be nice for sure
Xjarl - any word on this cable? I am sure we could build up some support here if needed
They just sold Over 10,000 of the Gtablets on Woot the other day. There were several posts directing people to this site as well as discussing the preference of a simple cable VS a dock.
I would hope the market would bear enough to get a run in at this point.
Didn't early reviews of the gtab often say Viewsonic was bunding an hdmi cable in the box?

nope, at least not as far as I can remember.

Yeah, bnovak in this thread is talking about de-constructing one and analyzing the circuitry to figure out the pin schematic so a cable could possibly be created:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865038&page=21
technically, I've found the right cable.
but I need to order 1000 of them.
Ordered a sample to make sure it is what it needs to be.
HDMI DOES NOT NEED TO BE POWERED!!! It's LVDS
How much to order 1000?

Now you tell me...
I just ordered the dock yesterday so I could use the HDMI.
Oh well...guess I need two cables.
My wife is going to wonder when my $285 Tab I talked her into letting me get for my birthday is going to stop costing money.

I recently saw that Dealextreme is stocking two wall chargers for the Asus Transformer series of tablets
One with the proprietary connector built in
http://dx.com/p/ac-power-adapter-ch...101-tf201-sl101-black-2-round-pin-plug-137392
and one with a 15v USB port
http://dx.com/p/ac-power-adapter-ch...mer-tf101-tf201-black-2-round-pin-plug-126492
has anyone tried them? I think I'll order the one with the proprietary connector, and so if it fails, I'll still have the connector to tinker. Also, if it works, I'll get to keep the cable at home, protected, instead of in my messenger bag.
I have tried the one with the 15v USB port - and it works just fine.
The best value for money (as always from DX).
i could buy those charger on ebay.. but what is the review about those chargers
I use second and i dont have any problems.:good:
Bought the one with the proprietary connector built in from them - works just fine.
I bought one from ebay here. It works great and you don't have to worry about that stupid asus brick crapping out on you.
Anyway, it's good to have one functioning properly with charger connected.

How to use this in the US? Is the round-pin connector removable?
TIA;

This one is half the price of the asus, available with amazon prime, and got REALLY good reviews. Just ordered one today, will provide feedback when received.

USA version of the non USB one can also be found for that seller (Flat pin plugs). Search tf101 charger. I'd give you the link but I dont have rights yet.
