Since i pre-ordered it I don't have time to wait until threads open and Online Stores are selling it today, so this is perfectly valid question.

The key word pre-ordered.
You have plenty of time to wait.

So, it's illegal to talk of such folly as wanting accessories, like a protective case, at the same time as said tablet. I say tar and feather the OP!!
The whiners in this particular forum are unbelievable...
lol @ "this particular forum". I hope you mean xda-wide with that.

If you're in the USA market, do a search on Amazon which is already listing several cases as Transformer Prime compatible. Their search isn't great as it pulls up TF101 items as well so check the descriptions. Here's a sample - links not allowed yet for this newbie:
USA Gear FlexSleeve Neo-Cushion Protective Cover Case Guard for ASUS Transformer Prime TF201
Transformer Prime Case Hard Cube Case with Shoulder Strap and Attached Pocket
Skinomi TechSkin - Skin Protector Shield for Asus Transformer Prime
Skinomi DryTech - Dry-Install Skin Protector Shield Full Body for Asus Transformer Prime
Rob
I'll probably pick one up to check out. Is there a matte screen protector to make it less reflective? Was that available on the first Transformer? The screen just looks crazy reflective in this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=p0D-mXIzlKc
For me screen looks just fine, nothing too reflective, you'll get use to it I'm sure.
We'll have to see if the uber brightness of the IPS+ burst mode can effectively counter act sunny daylight reflections.

I just ordered the USB Host Adapter and SD Card Adapter from Tiger Direct, $15 each. Grabbed an extra AC Power adapter for my office from Excaliber PC. Both sites state that TF101 connection accessories will work the the Prime, aside from the keyboard dock.
I also emailed Monoprice telling them to look into manufacturing their own USB cables for the TF101 & TF201. The cheapest you can buy them right now online is $18, which is in the realm of Apple's inflated accessory pricing.
Looking forward to more accessories to hit the market, along with that nifty looking "Smart Cover" we have seen.
I've contacted several case vendors over the last week asking about plans for Prime cases.
So far, I've heard from the following:
Boxwave - no plans but suggested I send in a request.
Incipio Technologies - plans to release a case but no specified release date at this time.
Tuff-Luv - expect to have availability in 4 to 5 weeks.
I'll report back from the few others I contacted.
Rob
have you tried searching on ZAGG ??
i know they only used to made mobile accessories but there isn't problem looking over there as well.

Poetic stated they expect to have two cases available in roughly 5 days through Amazon - "regular stand case and 360 degree swivel case for Asus transformer prime".

one of my friends has a CaseCrown portfolio case for his Xoom (called the "Standby" i think) and it is awesome. fits snugly with access to all ports and even has a magnetic clip to secure the flap to the case itself. it has a built in stand as well. here it is on amazon http://www.amazon.com/CaseCrown-Standby-Motorola-Model-Black/dp/B004WKT2DU
i love this case so much that i was hoping for a Transformer case to come out, so i emailed customer support at CaseCrown and this is the reply i got:
"We appreciate your interest in CaseCrown
We are currently discussing the Asus EEE Pad Transformer, so it is a possibility!
We can email you a notification if they will be available, however it will not be expected for at least 1-2 months
Otherwise, we can offer a few suggestions on generic sleeves or cases that will fit if you are interested."
i asked for alternatives and if they propose anything different than what's on the "compatible cases" thread i'll post them there. just wanted to let you all know.
They should definitely look into it, considering it's generating more hype than the Xoom.
count me in for one!

I dont know why these companys are "considering" bringing out cases. Surely they can see that there is space in the marketfor more cases..

OMG this case would be PERFECT!
Share the email address with us. We should ALL email them. The more emails they get the sooner they will make this!
Looks great, just sent them an email at [email protected]
Also suggested that if the do produce a case they look at a way to allow the unit to be docked with the keyboard without the need to remove cover which would be great
The need to hurry up on making one. Looks nice.

got an email yesterday from CaseCrown...here's what they said:
"This email is to inform you that we will have Asus Transformer standby cases in late June.
We can email you again when they are available if you are interested
Feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.
Thank you.

CaseCrown Support"
the casecrown cases really are fantastic so it may be worth the wait unless someone else comes out with one thats just as good. i know that the "FolioGuard" case shown in this forum is the one to beat right now, but the biggest caveat there is that it doesnt have the low profile stand ability. so basically i cant put it on my desk and have the low slant angle for typing
Yeah, I can see that being a problem for some.. The FolioGuard guys read these forums with interest though, so I'll wager that the feedback has been received and taken on board
Personally, because I use Thumb Keyboard extensively when using the tablet on its own (in "split mode") - that with a low profile typing position would actually feel "sub-optimal" for me as its best used when gripping the tablet and tapping away with your thumbs
..and then there's always the dock for the real typing shenannigans...
(If only Asus could've licensed the Transformer's transforming noise whenever you docked it... geek-tastic.. *sigh*)
That's great news. Casecrown makes some quality gear. Their Xoom case seems well made and its less than $20 on Amazon.
here's the xoom case...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_X824yeApds
I'll email them later today. It looks just like the official case, but with magnets and (fake) leather instead. I like it a lot.
The case crown looks a lot like this one they're selling on EBay out of China
The bad news is that it's $15 shipping for a total of $27 buy it now.

But someone has already emailed casecrown saying the TF101 case will be out in a few weeks within June to order. Hopefully within under the $20 mark.
This case looks great and it doesn't appear to be too thick like a lot of other cases too.
Hopefully it lives up to expectations as I'm getting tired of keeping my transformer inside due to not having a case.
I just bought a casecrown sleeve that I like quite a bit (other than the turqouise meshy crap on the inside that is a tad too rough to make me feel like it won't scratch my screen!)
Either way if they made a case like that which turned into a stand, I'd definitely purchase it Here's to hopin'!
Looks identical to the case in this thread...

Must be the one from China on Ebay mentioned earlier...even at $28 may be worth a try....
Looks fantastic, can't wait til its out!

The charging port is covered while it's closed. Someone on Amazon complained about that and a representative of the company responded that it was designed that way on purpose so that the port wouldn't wind up getting damaged while the case was in use.
I just got this case and I must say it is awesome. Excellent quality. Highly recommended.

Verteks Case
I read a review on Amazon from a member here at XDA. I won't use his
name because he might not like it. But, I just got this from Verteks
for $5.99!! Total cost was $10.98 with shipping.
I Love it ! This will hold me over until I can save up enough to get the
keyboard dock.
Thanks to the guy who pointed me in the right direction and to
Verteks for a great product!
Hey Guys,
I promised I will never order from Amazon again after they messed up my Asus Prime order! However, I had to jump on this deal !! The original price for the case is $20 something dollars on the sellers website but I think there might be a glitch in their system because they have the same case on Amazon for $11.95!
http://www.amazon.com/MiniSuit-ASUS...PG/ref=sr_1_22?ie=UTF8&qid=1324609238&sr=8-22
I noticed the case was for pre-order so I contacted the seller and asked if there is anyway I can get this case sooner. They were very professional and told me the case is in the final stages of production and should be released next week. After chatting some more and some butt kissing they gave me another coupon code for $3.00 off! The case comes out to around $11.90 shipped which I thought was an amazing STEAL!
I think the coupon code still works. This was a personal coupon code so I do not know when they will shut it down (Don't kill me if it doesn't work. Heck, its still worth a try!). Add the item to cart and enter promo code " ASUSPRME " at check out. ENJOY!

don't mean to be a party pooper...I had the same case for my og xoom. It is quite thickening and the propping up mechanism is less han stellar. I would save your money for something else.
I jumped in it too.. had on for my xoom and while it does add bulk.. it also adds protection and for 11 bucks, how can you go wrong

I could care less about the bulk.I had the motorola folio case for my xoom.I accidentally dropped my xoom while it was in the folio case on to the concrete upon getting out the car.I was certain the screen was cracked into pieces.But the folio case took most of the impact & saved my xoom.Imagine something like that happening to you $500+ Prime....Get the case.You can always take it out when you want to show it off.
I ordered one.
The case looks really nice. I might jUSSR order this also if I dont see a better case. this is a great deal. I wonder if Targus HAs made any cases for Prime yet. I HAve the Targus Trus case for my iPad and is really nice and provides maximum protection.
I agree with demandarin. What good would a case be if there is no protection?? Stay protected kiddies lol
There are very nice cases from Zenus ( http://www.zenuscase.net/gallaxy-tab/galaxy-tab2.html ) and I am thinking of getting one when my Transformer Prime arrives, however these are for the Galaxy 10.1.
Since the dimensions are similar I was wondering if anyone knows if these cases will fit.

I ordered a Mac Case vertical sleeve for the ipad2 as the size should be compatible according to the manufacturer.
I hope I'll know early next week.

I would not think a iPad case is compatible with the asus transformer prime as the device dimensions are different.
The reson i asked about the zenus cases for the samsung galaxy tab "10.1" is because the general form factor is close (with slight differences in width).

I emailed the vendor to see if they know anything about getting one for the Prime and they said that they should start carrying it on 1/20.
Here is the slim one - looks pretty good.
http://www.amazon.com/VIPERTEK-Prem...?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1325048945&sr=1-16
From the specs "Hand crafted with high quality polyurethane leather." Does that mean plastic or is it real leather?
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

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.

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.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fh78LIh2-Oo
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.

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.
Found a case that covers the Mobile Dock and Asus Transformer Prime Tablet.

looks kinda bulky and not that cool lol maybe i'll just get an invisibleshield or something similar to preserve the prime and keyboards slimness
That's in the ultimate accessory thread - it's exactly what I'm looking for but has anyone come across anything similar only less ugly?

A lot of these cases would be fine if they weren't fake leather. If for instance they were lightly texture vinyl instead or silicon. Fake leather electronics cases always feel so 1990 to me.
just bought one, hoping better cases come out like this -_-
oh well it was only $25
