Just ordered the Logitech Bluetooth keyboard for Android and the STM Skinny Case.
Will let you know what I think after they arrive. If anyone else already has either, let us know what you think.

I like the look and feel of the case. It feels sturdy and and has a no slip surface. There is no velcro required or anything stuck to the tablet. The tablet just snaps into place. The only negative I have is that it won't sit in the cradle with the case on. It's really easy to remove the tablet from the case, so to me it's not that big of a deal.
Tested IR and it works fine. Have not tested DNLA because I don't currently use it.

I live in Singapore and they do not deliver to Singapore. I wonder who can help me to buy?
Recieved the Logitech keyboard today. The combo keyboard case/tablet stand works out nicely. The keyboard case has magnetic locks, but does not keep the keyboard from sliding out if upside down. It flips open to make a nice adjustable tablet stand. Although I won't need the stand since the STM case has a built in stand.
Bluetooth connection was a snap. I just pulled the battery connectors from the keyboard, searched for bluetooth devices on my Sony Tablet and typed the requested passcode on the keyboard.
Typed this response with the Logitech keyboard.
Will post reviews and pictures when I get the case.

Can you please address how the case impacts IR/DLNA functionality upon arrival? Your insight is appreciated, thanks.
Thanks for the update. Hmmmm... I wonder whether it can be demasked with some fabric cleaner and a brush.

i decided to purchase this for my transformer and i just got the case today. the price to me was pretty good, the quality of this carrying case or bag is great. i am not sure how many people just went for the tablet itself or intend to purchase it along with the docking keyboard. I plan on getting my tablet with the docking keyboard and from the looks of it right now, there should be enough room to fit them both inside this case nicely. i fit my tablet in there and there is still room to spare. there is also separate zipper compartment for other small accessories. flash drives, charging cables... etc. everything should fit fine. they also have a brown one available but that cost a few bucks extra, it might even match up with the transformer well. but i went for the black to save a few bucks and you can't really go wrong with black. while this is a bit thicker than just a plan sleeve, i feel it doesn't really show in this case. it looks slim for all the room it has. there are handles to make it easy to carry and even an additional/optional body strap included. i am sure this may not be for everyone but if it helps a few people, that would be great.

Glad to hear you like it. I plan to use it with the keyboard, so I'm looking forward to this case.
i bought the same one!

Thanks for sharing your experience with this product. I just ordered a brown one off Amazon; looks to me like it matches the brownish color hue of the Transformer & dock very well. I went for both so something that could cary and protect my investment safely.

Down to $13.22!
For the black version that is.
Could someone please confirm it that a TF101 with dock will fit this bag? As none of the posters had the dock or case to check it for real.

I have this case also and I can confirm that the docked Transformer fits. For the price it really is a nice case.
Coming from an iPad2, the only thing i miss was my smart cover. Allowed protection without adding bulk.
I know it wouldnt work quite the same but I saw something similar for a Galaxy tab. It has a thin (metal/plastic?) backplate to hold the front piece. Perhaps it could be magnetic where the two ends meet to keep it closed.
Anything like this already available?

The closest there is right now is the Asus case, its a sleeve with a standing back but its the thinnest I've seen.

Sikai case ordered from eBay. Like original iPad cover but with some smart cover like foldin fir different viewing angles.
+1 for this. I m hoping that something like this comes out soon too!!!!
They should just make something with a hard back and 4 little lips that go over the corners with a hinge on one side for the flap with magnets.
Seems very easy to make.

Cheers for that, just what I've been looking for. Ordered one.
Reports that the Sikai magnets screw with the digital compass used for google maps and such.
Kinda iffy now. I also don't want black. I'd like white or some bright color.
difficult to developing a smart cover case for TF101.
Couldn't the Samsung one fit the TF? Aren't they the same size?
Right now I have a casecrown portfolio case, but I would like to see something like a smartcover (rather Samsung's version of smart cover where you have all round protection including the back.
For those who haven't seen the samsung's smartcover ripoff, here it is:

No they are not, all android tablets out there have different sizes. Screen size doesn't matter much when you are looking for a case with a perfect fit.
I've just received my cover with usb keyboard that I had bought 16 days ago ( http://www.ebay.es/itm/New-White-Co...ltDomain_0&hash=item3cbfe707a6#ht_3415wt_1396 )
The keyboard has a good feeling and the folio fits very well on it.
I've noticed that it covers the hdmi port, so I can be a problem if someone wants to use the case while having the hdmi connected

Hello, already bought it. Will test.
With the prelast JB release the special keys work and the keyboard is 100% fully operative
[Review] GoClever 10" (Black) keyboard case
Good:
1. You have a keyboard.
2. Your Folio is protected.
3. Writing is much faster.
Bad:
1. You need to cut down the 2 bottom legs, so you insert tablet without scratching the back of the case.
2. You need to remove the little cover that covers the miniUSB, USB and HDMI, so you could insert the usb device more easily.
3. The holding border covers HDMI.
4. Pressing Caps Lock, num Lk and Scr Lk crash your Folio.
5. The magnetic lock is weak.
6. Drains battery faster.
7. Tablet with case is mush heavier.
Hi there
I've got a following question about this cover. Is there possibility to open this case and take off the keyboard if I don't want to use it, or just open this case that keyboard would be on the back of the tablet?If case is closed isn't keyboard making scraches on the screen of the tablet?Is it working well for you?

I have it from 1 year and I have no scratches on the screen. It works well on plain surfaces, useless on knees

Case
Hey, I know it's been sometime since the launch of folio100, but I never bought a case for mine, and I'm looking for one now. I searched for the original Toshiba Leather Case but it seems it is a discontinued product in the market. So, does any 10.1" case fit my folio? If anyone has suggetions of nice folio cases, post it.
Thanks
P.S. Does the keyboard that comes with the cases work good with the folio 4.1 CM10?

Anyone using this for their 7.7? I'm assuming that the keyboard will work fine, wondering about the tab's fit in the slot (portrait or landscape), and also if the tab fits in the case snugly or floats around.
Thanks.

Seems to have a good review and is more compact as well as works with all platforms. Waiting to see if it comes down a little on price.

Looks nice but it would be nice to have a slot to prop the tab on, but very nice looking nonetheless

It is way to big for the 7.7.
The keyboard is designed to be a case and keyboard.
It may hold the 7.7 in the slot but it will not fit as a case.

At Amazon, it is inexpensive so why not get one and let us know what you think.

Thanks. I realized later that the 10.1 Tab actually fits inside, I didn't make that connection earlier. I might get this one, but will continue to look. The major bummer of this device is that because it didn't sell well at all, the accessory pool is so limited.
A Keyboard/Case combo is fine for a larger tablet, but for 7" I found that something like that would make the keyboard way too small/cramped to make it worth using. When I need to use a hardware keyboard, I either plug the old wired keyboard I have that was for the Samsung Q1U UMPC or the HP wireless one I bought that connects via USB dongle (need OTG adapter for it).
I like both of these because they have built-in pointing devices and you don't have to reach up from the keyboard to touch the screen or carry an extra mouse to move the cursor. If you look at the pic below, you'll see two round buttons on the upper left and right sides of the keyboard and that's for the optical mouse and left click (press down on the optical mouse sensor to get a right-click).
I bought this thing for $35 last year, but now just noticed the prices have shot through the roof at $90! Here's the cheapest one I could find: http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-WIRELESS-MINI-KEYBOARD-LK752AA-ABL-BLACK-/271138360926?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item3f211b0e5e

I bought my tablet Z with a couple of docking stands for around the house but I didn't buy the case as I couldn't find anywhere on how well the two could work together.
I can't see how the tablet could be docked with the case on but has anyone got both and had a play, is it a fiddle?
I generally don't use cases, as I prefer the dock options but my previous tablet, the HP Touchpad you could do both if you so wished and as I've spent a boat load more than the £99 for the Touchpad I'm feeling I should get used to a case.
I'd spend the rather hefty cost for the case if they worked together nicely or I'll just buy a cheapy for when I'm travelling.
Thanks, Manic.

The bottom part of the official case flips out, so it looks like most other cases will not fit. Frameless cases have a better chance of working.

Most of the carrying cases that are built by the company have a very smooth surface and texture thereby giving an exceptionally elegant look.
That one, are one of those elegant case.:good:
