I stopped at a Best Buy to grab a Scribe Pen before the holiday rush and found out that the price went back up to $79.99 (previously on sale for $39.99) On the website it shows out of stock and at the increased price as well. I talked with the rep that worked at the Best Buy Mobile store and he said they might decrease the price next weekend for Black Friday.
I tried ordering one from Amazon in bulk packaging (there were only 2 left when I ordered) but now it's showing out of stock. Hopefully I got it in time.
Anyone know where to find a good deal on a Scribe Stylus in case if my order was too late?
There is a seller on Ebay that sell OEM HTC stylus for $29.95.

Yeah I checked out eBay and saw that one. It's definitely an option. I had a $5 credit for Amazon and should be getting a $10 credit for Best Buy soon so I was looking to get the Scribe from them. I just want to make sure I'm not getting a cheap knock off that doesn't work properly.
I saw the black scribe pen, from the jetstream, on Amazon for 29.99...

I purchased the black OEM one from eBay, and it works just fine. Both of the buttons work and frankly I think the black looks better.
That being said, I have never used the silver one. Another thing to note is that the one from eBay doesn't come with a battery. I'm not sure if the BB one does, but I had to go to Radioshack (my BB didn't carry the batteries) and it cost me about 8 dollars for a pack of two.
Ugh, I can't find my stylus. Going crazy looking for it, but I think I'm going to have to buy another one soon. Thanks for the tips on where to possible find cheaper ones.
Noticed that the price was back up when I stopped by Best Buy last night to pick up some Bluetooth headphones. I was going to pick up a stylus also, but decided against it at that price.
Are they nuts at Best Buy (for raising the price just before Black Friday), or could it be a pre-cursor to discounts on the Flyer price which they want to recoup through accessories (whici is SOP for Best Buy - they will try to saddle you with a "high quality HDMI" cable for your new TV for $59-99 when you can get the same quality from a $10 Amazon cable)? Here's hoping for a few more Flyers in the $200 range!!!!!
So very hard to find these buggers in Canada

Where is the cheapest place to buy one the lowest price I found was on amazon which is the same as a close store,
I also want to get a good case for it, after I buy I plan on installing Vegan rom so any suggestions on where To buy it?
Not on fleabay. You will mostlikely get hosed. Many people have had good luck with woot.com and tigerdirect.
You could probably look in the general forum and see if another gtaber is selling one. We see ones with cases and extra schwag going for the same price as new all the time.
There's a Woot! Off going on, today - there's a chance that they might add the GTAB at some point, and most likely for $285 if they do.

It is possible to find a good deal on e-bay, just make sure to know what your maximum bid will be, for what you get.
I got mine there, paid $300 for the package that included the G-Tablet, a case for it (would pay $20 plus shipping from electronic crap) and a bluetooth GPS that amazon sells for $35. So, in all, I pretty much got the G-Tablet for under $245.
The "CLIP" on electroniccrap is perfect for the gtab. Although it blocks access to the full size usb port.

I think I'm just gonna buy from the store, I don't want it used ofc I like the feeling of opening box :3
Ya I think staples is selling it down the street at least that's what good says for the same price that it is on amazon.

Currently, 10" gtab is on sale in Tigerdirect.com on $270 (use coupon code: FDQ33784) with free shipping (ends by 6/15). That is the same price I bought from Woot.com in April. If you want a good case, you can try electroniccrap.com. They have many custom design cases for gtab and good service. I hope it will help you to get into gtab world easier.
Thanks for the advice ;o Tho im not sure if im gonna buy by the 15 was waiting more towards the end of the month I guess we will see.
Just picked one up at the TD store in Buffalo Grove, and the dam thing has a white line down the left side of it, but the battery was completely dead so I will give it a charge and see... I got the in store price of 299, and I talked them into the 30 bux off.. ... Then picked up a belkin case for 25, so not bad..
It came with 1.2-4???? will play with it in a bit once it's charged, but might have to take it back..
Will re-rom soon..
Make sure you guys visit gtab for dummies page.
I just seen them on Tiger Direct for $269.00 yeaterday

I got mines last month from a local Office Depot for $299.99. It seems that is they regular price for the Gtab. Sears also has it for the same price but their stock is depleted locally.

well just because it has the 1.2 bootloader doesn't mean you have a big loss on your part. There are plenty of choices for the 1.2 bootloader.
If you don't mind picking one up used, but in good condition.. check Craigslist out. I scored mine for $180 with all original accessories, including the foam sleeve that it comes in. Not a scratch on it!!
Edit: sellout.woot has them for $249.99 + $5 shipping today. That is a sweeeeet price for a brand new one!
Just a heads up to anyone looking for a few accessories for the HTC flyer. Best Buy has the scribe pen for $39, the invisibleSHIELD for $10, and the Rocketfish Leather case for only $15. These prices are taken from their website. If I had not already bought a leather case, I would pick up the rocketfish from them.
Yeah. I got the pen when I bought the Flyer. It was $39 at that time also. Happy they littered the price of the Shield. What they were charging for just the screen protection was more than Zagg was charging online and only $5 less than what Zagg charges for the full body protection, which I got with free shipping. I'm not crazy about the case since there's no space for the pen, but that's definitely not a bad price.
Thanks for the info.

Hi, i cant find/see the rocketfish leather case bestbuy website... can forward me the link?
thanks.
It was on their site originally but I'm guessing they took it down because it was sold out. What' s even more puzzling is I was talking to a Best Buy associate yesterday and he told me that the flyer is discontinued. Of course I didn't really believe him but I checked on their site and saw that not only is the flyer backordered, It is unavailable at every best buy around me in a 100 mile radius. Hopefully he was just full of it.
I went to BB last night and got the Zagg screen protector. That was the last one that they had.. They had the stylus and cases, though.
I have no direct insight into HTCs management decisions, but from having owned several of their products, my opinion is;
Bestbuy is closing the Flyer out, they put it on sale and are not restocking.
This probably means that HTC has declared end of life for the flyer meaning they will not make any more.
I would not be surprised if HTC declares that the Flyer is not getting any software updates because its hardware doesn't support Honeycomb or ICS. That's completely false of course because we all know the hardware will support either, but this is an excuse they have use several times in the past.
I expect HTC to either exit the tablet market or come out with a new line of lesser quality builds at a lower price point.
I'm selling my gtab. I don't use it enough, plus I'm going to be buying the galaxy nexus full retail. Anyway, what do you guys think is a realistic asking price for it. Its rooted running gtabcomb. Everything is in perfect condition and it includes box, cable, manuals etc, everything. I would also be trying to sell my black clip case with it.
Any input is welcome
I recently purchased a used GTablet (already rooted) for $180. I see a lot of them in the $160 to $200 range.
did you just get the gtab for 180, or did it come with any accessories or case? I'm thinking maybe 200 tab and case

Yea, I wanna sell mine too, I think $200 FOR tab and case sounds fair.

Anyone selling one? I'll be buying one this weekend but reliable spots with the $200 mark are few and far between (don't trust new sellers on amazon). PM me and let's talk.

No case. Just a "skin" on it. Condition was like new-- no scratches or mars. I got it on e-bay. Shipping was only $6.00. I'm satisfied. Everything seems to work fine (except for known issues with the ROM, FlashBack 10)

Just my opinion but if you can get $180 range or better .... grab the deal. The holiday offerings might depress that price further.

Got two for $150 each on Amazon.
I got lucky as the (new) seller wanted to get rid of them quickly.
Wiped and flashed CM7.1
Anything between $150 & $175 is a fair price considering the other offerings in the market and the specs on the Gtab.
For eg. A refurb Iconia Tab is going for $259 today on ebay marketplace.
Hello,
In November there were a number of places selling the dock for 99$. Is this because of the older firmware? I am trying to find it cheaper right now but cannot really find anything less than 125 after shipping and taxes. Does anyone have any advice on where to find the dock cheaper maybe like 110?
i feel you OP, im in the same boat as you. saw the dock priced at $99 around black friday/xmas time. tried to hold out for some type of "better" deal possibly. Then right after saw the price shoot up to like $180 lmao. I couldnt believe it. As of right now we have 2 options. search ebay or craigslist for someone selling it for cheap or wait until amazon comes back down on the price. Ive been watching it since it jumped from $99 to $180. its been steadily coming down ever since and as you said
its about $125 now. we just have to wait a little longer

yeah i guess you are right haha. thanks for the reply. man don't you hate that feeling tho when you miss a good deal? hahaha
I don't know how you feel about ordering from amazon but I would look on there. They have a Used - Like New Transformer Dock for 111.31 with Free Super Saver Shipping.
Taken from Amazons Condition Guidelines:
Like New: An apparently untouched computer item in perfect condition. The original plastic wrap may be missing, but the original packaging and software is intact. There are absolutely no signs of wear. Suitable for presenting as a gift.
Can't post the link since this is my first post
Enjoy!
there is a place on eBay selling refurbished docks for $99. I forget the name of the place, but it appears they had good ratings and lots of sales.
I saw it listed on gizmodo dealmodo today (actually it was the tf101 for $298 +shipping or the 32g version for $399 with free shipping) .

I finally decided to order my Xformer today and got it from B&H for $250 (used)

They are also selling used keyboards for $90...but I guess I got the last refurbished one cause its $118 now.

The amazon marketplace sells the keyboard for $107 used.

I really want this case. Seems for some reason it is very rare and hard to find.
I ordered one a month ago from MyTrendyPhone.com and it has still not arrived. They sent me affidavit to sign that I just sent back. I have a feeling all I am going to get is a refund.
Anyone know where I can get this case in black?
Thanks,
Chad
First I got an email saying they would be shipping me a new one.
Then overnight I got an email saying they are sold out and offering me 20% off my next order under $40. Offered me a refund as well.
Why is this case in such sort supply? I don't have one yet, but it looks to be the best case out there. It replaces the back cover which adds less bulk, and has wireless charging built in.
I have not been able to get my hands on one either.
Finally got my refund from MyTrendyPhone.com, and have now placed an order with Expansys.com. They have it available. Also got the Quick Circle Wireless Charging case ,to see which one I like better.

Looks like they only have it in white?
Bought mine from Amazon.de Germany. Use chrome browser and it will translate. Choose other sellers and pick Amazon. Got it in about a week and a half for just under $40 including shipping.
MyTrendyPhone is a garbage company. Ordered from them too but never again. The Slim Guard case is absolutely the best case for the G3. I bought mine from Expansys and received it within a week. It is every bit worth the $45 or so that I paid and yes; it is very hard to find. Your best bet is maybe a secondhand off of eBay.
Does anyone know of anyone selling the black case unused?

I just bought two (one for me and the other for my wife) from amazon.de but unfortunately the seller didn't ship to the USA so I had it sent to my cousins apartment in Germany and she forwarded me the package which I received today.
Some pictures to share...
just purchased from Amazon.fr. 42USD.
the only seller on the German Amazon that would ship to me would charge an exorbitant shipping fee.
I have got the uk version but getting shot of it as not for me. Prefer my supacase.
