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...
Arkon Portable Fold-up Stand
Carbon Fiber ThinSkin in Black
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.
Hey all,
I found this on amazon. Thought maybe some might be interested. It's a cheap alternative and I've already placed my order for it. 9.58 isn't alot to spend and that's all i figured I'd lose. I ordered the brown one but there's a black one too. Might be a cheaper alternative to the tuf-luv case since some were worried about the bulk. I'll update this once I receive it and give you some pics.
Since it won't allow me to url tags or give out the url, search for Navitech + Asus and you should see what I'm talking about.
Let me know what you think!
This looks JUST like the Elsse Premium Synthetic Leather Case (there's a thread about this elsewhere in this sub forum). They were having a discussion there about whether or not the case would work with the dock as well, and I guess the answer would be yes, if you unfasten the velcro?
Can anybody confirm?
Is this what you mean? Looks good if not a little thick when all combined.
Anxious to hear any reviews.
Yeah...that's what I was talking about...apparently they must have had a huge messup with the price because I got one yesterday for 4.99 + 4.49 shipping....they've sent it and it looks like it's coming from the UK...anyhow...the 4.99 are gone and they've got only the 19.99 left. I'll give a review once I get the case...even if you undo the velcro, you can still to a material store (joanne fabrics, etc.) and get a longer velcro strap to hold it together. Thanks!
Wouldn't the rooCASE Slim work the same way?
http://goo.gl/V0RMe
roocase does not do the samee thing at all; this has a case for the tablet, then also for the docking port and then they finally work together somehow.

Looks like someone gave it 1 star on the Amazon product page. According to the reviewer it does not accommodate a docked tablet too well.

Looks like the reviewer may have a legit point. If you look at the sideways pictures, you can tell the tablet is not docked. The tablet hangs over the edge of the dock by almost an inch. Anybody who has the tablet with the dock knows that when it is closed, there is almost no overhang. I know I won't be buying it.
With that said, if anyone knows of a better case. Even one that would store the dock and tablet separately, I'd like to know about it.
ilgadets,
If you're interested in a sleeve case, I recommend this one:
http://www.overstock.com/Luggage-Bags/Wenger-Swiss-Gear-Legacy-10.2-inch-Tablet-iPad-Netbook-Slimcase/5804731/product.html
It has two zippered pockets, handles, a removable shoulder strap, and pockets on the front and back,
and it fits the Transformer and keyboard dock (separately) perfectly.
The handles can be slipped into the pockets, but that adds "bumps" that I didn't like.
I wanted the thinnest possible case, so I cut off the the handles and the triangular clips for the shoulder strap.
I think this is one of the best solutions for carrying the tablet and keyboard separately.
Regards,
Eric
FWIW - I grabbed one from best buy for an HP Mini 10 and it works perfectly. Fits very snug with the dock, and i feel safe carrying the tab around in it. Also has a zip pouch for a cleaning cloth, HDMI adapter, headphones, and other small items.
Was about $25 iirc... so a little bit more than what you're looking at here.

I have the exact same one, mines black and kinda has a 3D cube kinda pattern on the front. Anyways, I'm an employee, so mine only set me back $7. BBY employee discount is changing though, so that won't be the case in the future.
Anyways, case fits great, holds tab or tab+keyboard excellently.

Are you guys taking about a case or a carrying bag? Unless I'm mistaken, I believe the OP is talking about a folio type case for both the tablet and dock - kind of like this Tuff-Luv combo case.

Amazingly the only folio I've been able to find. I have the same style case for my iPad and I must set this is the way to go. Though I can see the desire for a portrait mode . The hand strap is a great touch for that.

while I was looking for a case of my own. Since the Amazon one is out of stock, it seems like an alternative.

It looks great and the size is perfect - compact and slim. How does it feel in hands - solid? Does it block the mic hole at the top?

Looking at the pics, it looks like the NT would snap into it at the four corners rather than any edges. The NT's mic is a small hole at the top of the device, offset from the center. I doubt this case would block it.
[Edit]
Sorry, I should check the reply more closely before posting. I was looking at the one from Best Buy.
This is the one I picked up. It's pretty nice, a couple of different angles to stand the NT up, and it surrounds the whole thing, so it's pretty secure.
edit: I'm not allowed to post links yet, but search on amazon for crazy on digital's folio case for the Nook Color
This may seem like a dumb question, but can you stand it up in portrait mode with this case?

Well i just bought one from amazon. It will be hear Wednesday. I will Take pictures, and write a in-depth review on it by next Friday. I will probably be buying a couple cases, and writing reviews to help people make their decision. Im starting with this one because it has the holes for speaker in it. Which is an important feature.

ordered this before I even saw your post.
Got it, hate it. No way to really fold the cover back and use it in portrait mode. Cover doesn't close flush with the nook.
Really nice quality leather.
If you case closes flush with the nook then I might be wiling to get a replacement and see if this one is defective but I don't think the magnets are strong enough/the groves to hold it in portrait prevent it from closing flush.
Just got the Speck Fitfolio in black. It fits very well and does not make it feel bulky at all. They have also extended the "vegan leather" on the back over the hard shell making it look far nicer.
Ok I purchased this case. Like the feel of it and its not too bulky. BUT, whatever chemicle they used to coat the leather absorbed into the bezel of my nooks rubber paint coating and caused a brown spotted discoloring.... I tried to clean it with alcohol and other cleaning products but its absorbed in the coating ... im pretty pissed to be honest. I just orders a skinomi woodgrain skin to cover the damage up, and plan on taking pictures and contacting the case manufactor to have them buy me a new nook! WARNING TO ALL!
I purchased this case
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005MZ35NM/..._am_us?ie=UTF8
I've had it for about 3 weeks but haven't used it due to a very
strong chemical smell. The smell transferred to my hands after unpacking the case.
I've been waiting for the smell to go away before using it but after reading posts regarding damage the Nook finish I may never use it.
At the time I purchased my Nook I also picked up a B&N case that was discounted 30%. It's much better quality, I really like clips that hold it in place. Very quick and easy to pop the Nook in and out. The B&N case was approximately $10 higher cost but I feel it's higher quality case and worth the cost difference.
The rooCase Leather Folio Case Cover has been around on Amazon for quite a while now, but I noticed today that it now has a special offer for free shipping when it does come out. Use the code "IL22S7KR" while checkout to get the $4.98 shipping discount.

Thanks for alerting me to this, this is probably the cheapest case from a company I trust to have actually tailored it to a real transformer prime and not just a generic 10" android tablet case.. just ordered one
I used the slim case from rooCase for my Samsung. I liked it a lot. I'm sort of waiting for it to be available for the Prime too. I tried using the one I have on the Prime, but the case is slightly too small...

Amazon has listings for slim cases from VERTEKS and VIPERTEK that look similar to that case for the prime.
misread the post....thought we were looking at the leather case...the slim cases don't look too bad at all!
Just ordered thanks for the link
Just cant believe these guys dont have anything in stock when a new device comes out.
This looks almost exactly like the Verteks case except that this has a cutout for the speaker. Hmmm... Didn't think about the cut out for the speaker. This might make me switch my order for the rooCase.
How exactly do those hinge / snap looking things (from the VERTEKS / VIPERTEK models) work for holding the tablet? Their hold on the device looks rather precarious
ordered
this is one of the two that i can find with portrait view, the other one is not real leather and costs 20.
hopefully it's not too thick
Like to know if anyone actually likes this. Still debaiting on what to get.
did anyone got a shipping notification on this one yet?
sent them email, no reply

Do you have it yet? My tablet will be here tomorrow and I ordered a Moko cancelled it ordered another purple Moko cancelled it plus neither one were in stock for awhile.

I do know the executive one zips and I don't know if I will use it in portrait but it's nice to know it does it. What does this mean?

Didn't see the Moko one before, I would have bought that one instead probably based on price, it doesn't look like it has the speaker cut out. I ordered the rooCase on the 3rd, estimated to be sent out on 10th, however, today is the 11th, Amazon status still says Shipping Soon, so no idea how long it'll take.
ideally, i want something really thin, doesn't cover the Transformer look, and stands landscape and portrait mode in multi angles. i don't need protection, i need a case+stand.
the detachable inner sleeve means there are two layers on the case, sleeve, and the actual case. you can use the sleeve without case, which is kind of convinient.
I emailed as well (through amazon's "contact the seller" method), no reply yet. Mine also still says "shipping soon." I paid a lot for 2-day shipping, too, because I'd really like to take my prime to a conference I'm going to this weekend. Frustrating.

So do you recommend I order the Moko cheaper one? The Roocase though says available the Moko says 1/18. But if the speaker isn't cut out then I don't want it. I emailed the company to ask them I don't now what to do but i have to leave for work and my tablet just got here YAY!

the detachable inner sleeve means there are two layers on the case, sleeve, and the actual case. you can use the sleeve without case, which is kind of convinient.

I have an Barnes and Noble official case called the Tasume cover. It can act as a stand in both portrait and landscape.
The only thing is you'd have to take your NT out of the cover to access the SD card and the microphone.
get the one with a hand strap
I've got «CrazyOnDigital Stand Leather Case with Screen Protector» from amazon, had to make a little hole for the speaker for it to be louder but other than that pretty nice one for little money ($14.85 now)
I use an M-Edge Incline case that I picked up at Best Buy a while back. The feel is really nice and it has a few different positions that you can stand it in. You do have to remove the Nook from the case in order to access the Micro-SD slot.

I have one of those soft, baby blue ones, but I don't really take it too many places right now.

Nice. But a bit pricey for $ 45.00.

I've had the case for almost a year and it's been worth it.

This is the cover I have

Works well for me since I can use it as a stand in certain cases and in others like the case of flash video causes the video to turn the wrong way making the stand useless.
FWIW I bought this case for my NT, it's a very nice and inexpensive case.

I got something similar http://www.ebay.com.sg/itm/300722422070?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 for $10.88. It ships from Hong Kong but I got it within 1 week plus.
The grey is more like brown, and the build quality feels a little cheap, but for this price I'm really satisfied.
Resurrecting a very old thread here....
If I had ESP I would have bought two cases when I got my first Nook Tablet back in the day. What I have is a very sturdy, nice, plain black "leather" case (maybe an Industriell?). I love it. It's made for the NT and holds it securely.
I recently acquired another NT. It came with a very sturdy case (also made for the NT). Someone would probably pay really good money for it but I think it is incredibly ugly. I really don't need to see John Lennon peering out at me every time I pick up the tablet.
I can't seem to find much that is made for the Nook Tablet or Nook Color. B&N has all these pages of stuff that are nothing but dead links. Very little on ebay except for the folding or easel types. Anyone have a lead?
Edit: and the solution was fabric spray paint since this particular case was fabric covered. It took quite a few coats to obliterate Mr. Lennon, and the case was a bit tacky for awhile, but that eventually went away.
