I got my K-Jam cradle today. It's the same one that Boxwave are selling. Mine came from gpsforless.co.uk and arrived two days after ordering.
It's a little to upright for my liking and has got a largish footprint but otherwise it's fine. No psu included but I think it will work with a powere
usb hub.
Is it this one? http://www.gpsforless.co.uk/product_details.php?id=2796

Can you design it with a spare battery charging slot?
I'll pay a premium for that.
It's hard to believe that no after market designer has released one for the wizard yet. You can pretty much find spare battery charging cradles for any other model.
§tatic
No, I can't %)
It's one thing to design a basic shape of the older, the placement of a mini USB plugin slot, add a little 2.5mm male to 3.5mm female jack - it's another entirely to add a charging circuit - I wouldn't even know where to begin with that :>
I do agree that I wish somebody would come out with one - but I'm not sure it'll happen. Typically the market for these kinds of accessories is saturated within 2 months of delivery of the device - after that, the accessories need to be in a state of 'mass production', and the designers need to get in gear for design of accessories for the next generation of devices.
I saw the expansys homepage have both normal craddles like that from gpsforless and also "liedown" cradleswhere you can use keyboard while charging. However, havent seen any craddle with faster charging (extra power).
Cradle for charging spare battery
Hi
Anyone found a 'Wizzard' Cradle for charging spare battery yet?, then please link to store
I'd recommened against getting the cradle from GPSforless. I had to return mine because windows saw my Wizard as an unrecognized USB device. They gave me a full refund, but just a note incase you're thinking of getting one.
Try this one.

Speaking of cradles...
Anyone check out the music dock yet?
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/9070.htm
I'm looking to order one but I need some reviews. They don't sell them in the states as you see it's got British pound prices all over it. The manufacturer: Brando is in Hong Kong, and their site looks rather sketchy...
http://shop.brando.com.hk/imatekjammusicdock.php
Someone give me a heads up.
I bought the one from Brando a month ago, its really good.
I had no problem ordering from Sweden, delivery was maybe a week after order.
I can reccomend it.

I brought this a few weeks ago. I cant recommend it. Sound quality is awful. It buzes when recharging & there is only an option of USB or main recharging - I was rather hoping to keep it pugged into mains and PC so it would stay charged when PC is off.
Cradle
Hi all anyone found the cradle with spare battery charger yet?
I really would like one.
I did a search the forums and really didn't see what I was looking for. Where can I order an additional charging cable for the transformer ? I searched the asus website among other stories and did not find one. Thanks.

Yeah, $10 more than the Apple option. Hopefully the 3rd party gets on this.
I see Fry's just listed the charger but will not ship till July 22nd

I just pre-ordered one from here today... http://www.excaliberpc.com/606705/asus-transformer-tf101-ac-adapter.html
According to the sales person on the phone, the shipment should be there Tuesday.
Pretty pissed about mine, appears to have a short and I am scared that it also fried the contacts inside my TF - Might be a full RMA, but I don't wanna wait!
How about just the cable? Anyone know where to buy or the part#?
Thanks,

Well, it is $35 more than the Samsung option. I found Samsung tablet cables for $5.
I really think ASUS should have included a cable to charge the dock with, i mean seriously what other device do you know of that takes a certain cable to charge it with that is not provided when you purchase the product... For the price you are paying for the dock.

Lame on ASUS's part in general with this whole situation. This is exactly how you do NOT want to launch a new product.
I agree... I'm very disappointed Asus didn't bundle an additional cable with the docking.
Especially because they decided to use proprietary port...
Agreed - for the $10 worth of parts in the dock & $150 price tag, they could've included the damn cable.
-bZj
Argh. F you ASUS. Speak of the devil. My charger *JUST* went out after owning this thing for only about 1.5 months. Fortunately the problem seems to be the power supply and not the cable itself. I can still connect to the tablet when the cable is plugged in to the PC. I guess off to drop $30 on a replacement supply.
Look for iPad compatible supplies at Amazon/eBay - should be a cheaper solution for just the wall wart.

I don't think an iPad charger will work. Others here have suggested that at least 11v are needed to charge the transformer at a reasonable rate (see for example, DevCake's thread on DIY charging solutions).
I've got a query into Powertraveller as to whether they've got a Tip/Adaptor on the way for the EeePad Transformer - I own both a Powermonkey and a Powergorilla.
It is annoying that they're using a proprietary connector!

Made worse by the fact that replacement cables are super hard to come by. Why would you make a proprietary cable... knowing damn well that everyone is going to want replacements, especially since the one they give you is only two feet long... and then not make them easily available to purchase?
This is the main complaint I have had with this tablet.

Jesus Christ, Asus, why make the cable so hard to buy?! I just got a docking station today and lo and behold.. NO CHARGER?!
Now I can ONLY charge one device at a time... great.
Hi all, trying to decide which tablet to get. Hoping to get some honest unbiased opinions. I am coming from an IPad 1 which i loved. Also, I have the $100.00 off staples coupon, however I can NOT get the Asus at 100 off. Everywhere I checked in my area would not honor the coupon because Staples does not have it in stock, I can only get the xoom or Samsung 100.00 off. SO I know most of the pros and cons of each but most reviews that favor the Asus like it because of the price cut. I am going into this with all 3 the same price (only difference being I can get a 32gb xoom at the price of the 16gb asus and samsung)
ASUS 16gb - 399.99
What I like about the ASUS:
Screen I read is the best.
Mini HDMI
SD Card
Lots of mod potential
CONS:
heavier
proprietary cable that i can not find for sale anywhere
large frame.
less than quality build
I dont care about the dock, probably wont buy it.
XOOM - 32gb - 399.99
What I like about the XOOM
Updates first
quality build
SD card slot
HDMI out
no proprietary cable
lots of accessories
CONS:
not the best screen
heaviest
seems to be a little slower than the others (not as responsive)
not a huge mod community
Galaxy Tab - 399.99 16gb
Pros:
light
quality build
smaller frame
optional keyboard if I want
nice screen
fast/responsive
good mod community
CONS:
proprietary cable
no SD Card slot (huge)
no HDMI out
So with all that said, any opinions/suggestions would really help. Like I said I have the 100.00 coupon and I hate to not use it. So with it I can get all 3 for 399.99 BUT if I choose the Samsung, I would probably pay the 499.99 for the 32 gig (using the 100.00 off) since it has no SD card slot which REALLY SUX. Id be using the tab for movie watching a lot, lots of web browsing, and some EBOOK/PDF mag reading mainly with light gaming and light music listening.
I REALLY need some help.
Honestly I had the same thoughts and just went with the GTab. Since this comes straight from Google you dont have to worry about updates, this tab is their flagship right now so we get updates before anyone. Not having a SD Card slot hasnt been an issue either. Forgot to mention I bought one from Best Buy for retail price, then I found one on eBay for $600 with a screen protector and the dock, took the one back to Best Buy. Basically what Im saying is, you can find a great deal on eBay for a brand new GTab with extras like I did and still came out cheaper. If I decide to sell it, I can sell it for the same price, or a little cheaper because I didnt buy the extra $35 dock nor did I spend the $36 in store taxes.

Actually the Xoom gets the updates first, not the GTab.
Anyway I had the Xoom, returned it for the Transformer, then returned the Transformer for the Galaxy tab 10.1. I will be keeping the 10.1 and love it.
The Xoom screen is TERRIBLE and it's way too heavy. And up until recently the Xoom was the most expensive tablet on the market, despite having the worst features.
The Transformer was just a big POS. Software was extremely slow on laggy, build quality was abysmal.
I have no need for microSD or HDMI so that was no big deal for me. what I wanted was a light tablet with a wonderful screen and high build quality. The Galaxy tab 10.1 is the only one that gives me that.
What the Xoom has going for it is that it is the first to get Honeycomb updates, and it's built like a tank (in a good way, meaning it's sturdy).
I would use the $100 Staples coupon and get the Galaxy Tab 10.1. Thankfully it is still shipping without Touchwiz, since I don't like how Touchwiz tries to make Honeycomb look like iOS (seriously Samsung, get off of Apple's nuts already, it's embarrassing).
I have both a TF and a Tab, I got the Tab from a local craigslist seller for $375 about a week before the coupon came out. I then got another Tab from Staples with the coupon for my son and he loves it. I didn't really need another tablet but I decided to try and get a TF from Office Depot for $299. The first OD wouldn't honor the coupon and the 2nd one I went to took the coupon with no hassle. I also bought the keyboard dock for the TF as well. I compared both tablets over the weekend and here are my thoughts:
- I had no build quality issues with the TF I got, it was put together great.
- I fried the TF on day 2 trying to root and install cwm so I had to exchange it for another one at OD. In my opinion the Tab is much easier to root and install custom roms but it may be just that I'm not familiar with the process on the TF.
- The screen on the Tab beats the TF hands down. The Tab has the best screen I've ever seen on a tablet, even nicer than my iPad.
- The size and form factor of the Tab is fantastic, again no comparison.
- The only thing the TF really has in it's favor is the built-in micro sd card slot and hdmi connector, plus the keyboard dock that provides a 2nd battery. For those advantages you are carrying a heavier tablet. I got the Samsung USB adapter from BB and now I can read micro sd cards on the tab. You wouldn't want to use the Tab with the USB adapter but you can copy files to/from the micro sd card into the Tab's internal memory so that helps overcome the 16gb. I liked the USB adapter so much I bought a 2nd one to keep at work, they are only $20 each. It works with every USB stick I tried and even my SD card reader with a 32gb SD card. So going on a trip I can load a bunch of movies onto a memory stick and copy them onto the Tab when I want to watch them and delete them when I'm done. The HDMI port is totally useless for me as I have no use case for plugging the tablet into my TV.
- The TF has serious charger issues. Asus is using a higher voltage than a standard USB port therefore it won't charge with any other USB adapter. This really sucks, and they are charging too much for a spare adapter if you can even find them. The Samsung uses a standard USB wall wart. You can plug it into any USB wall charger and it will trickle charge. It will have an "x" on the battery like it's not charging - but it is! It is slow charging, if you don't believe it, leave it connected all night and you'll be at 100% in the morning. I also purchased a little dongle adapter that tricks the Tab into going into real charge mode with any USB wall wart. I also have Samsung's USB car charger that I leave in my car and it charges everything, including the Tab and my iPhone. As far as I know Asus doesn't offer a car charger for the TF. The TF also won't work with standard USB extenders, you have to order special ones for USB 3.0, where the Tab works with any USB extender.
So at the end of the day the Tab is the winner....

Well said *golf clap*. I completely agree with this post and could not have said it better myself. I was kinda upset that I only got the 16gb model but after a few days I figure it really is not that big a deal. Everything that this post says about the adapter I was thinking as well. By the time I would fill up this 16gb model I may be ready to buy another one and pass this off to my wife and daughter for kid games/apps which they won't need much space for.
The way the GT feels in your hand is fantastic, if you want a laptop get a laptop, if you want a tablet get the GT or iPad (yikes I know) or BB Playbook since they are all portable tablets and feel great in your hands.
My take Galaxy Tap 10.1
All aside... OK the Motorola has the ports, however the galaxy has the add on and would do the same....Screen quality is far greater and overall construction including wait is a no brainier...
I am still Loving my Tab...What makes it better I have a two year warranty.
I think I'm sold on a G Tab. Thx u guys!
Also you can get knock-off USB cables for the Tab from eBay for like 3 dollars. I had the previous 7" tab and bought a bunch of generic USB cables from eBay and they work great on the Tab 10.1. Now I wouldn't recommend doing ROM installs with the knock off cables, but for charging and file transfering they work like a charm! By the way all the adapter stuff from the 7" Tab works great with the 10.1 model, including the car charger. And you can buy all the chargers/cables/etc. from any AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile store because they carry the 7" Tab.
Had the Asus Transformer and went throught 4 because i was convinced it was the tablet for me. When i took number 4 back, that is when i decided it was time to Tab. I swallowed the extra dollars and got the 32gb. I had purchased a 32gb sd card for the Asus and knew that was plenty roomy for media. So i decided to stick with the feeling of 'plenty of room.' The form factor difference is just crazy extreme. The Tab feels much better in the hands, which is where it is 90% of the time.
Accessory wise, Samsung has alot more out and its been on the market the least between the 3 mentioned. He Samsung keyboard dock is alot closer to full size compared to TF dock. I found myself aways having to disable the track pad on the TF and aim the fingers much more norrow. You will tyoe faster than the full touch keyboard, but not by much. The battery on the keyboard was only useful on the 3 new TF i had to update amd restore out of the box. They aways seemed to be low on battery out of the box. I think the keyboard battery suuplement would only be useful on extensive travel and use.
Lastly, yes the Xoom and Asus have ports. But what good is a tablet if its connected to something? It certainly isnt mobile. So to me the adapters make perfect sense. You only want that stuff once in a while. Why should you carry the extra bulk and weight with you all the time? You shed those ports and internal junctures and you have a tablet as light and thin as the GT. Add it when you need it and disconnect it when done. 32gb and 16gb are alot of space and if you managw what you really need vs want, you wont miss the expandable storage. There are also lines of wifi 500gb pocket drives with batteries. I truly think that will be the future vs sd card. Larger capacity and group sharing friendly. No more passing the stick around to copy.
All in all the GT is a great experience and youll only be disappointed if you just cant stand it that people have ports and you have an adapter.

i see they have an extended battery with back too. wonder if its any good
Wow! Good eye. If you have time, I would love to test some USB devices on that. namely, I wanted to see if standard USB controllers would work with it. If you have an Xbox controller, try that. If not, you can pick up a USB controller from Radio Shack just to test, and then return it for a full refund.
I know it's asking a lot, but it's one of the things holding me back from buying this.

did you contact them? If so what was their response?
Yes I did - Still Waiting
Yes, I contacted them via email on their website and called the phone number. I got a recording of some dude talking about he is busy. The website ask to wait forty eight hours for a representative. If I don't here back from them I'm going to charge the sale back.
The name on the envelope saids MyTechSolution. But his voice mail saids something else. Thats three different names so far.
Hopefully this is a mistake they can straighten out. All seems rather un-professional at this point. I have seen this before. They have about thousand items, which is enough for people to get their item and then spread the word via forum. They soon take in orders for 10,000 and run off with the money. In this case the wall charger creates a tracking number and buys more time.
I ordered both the hd dock and the car dock on 2/1 and received them both on 2/7. No problems. Genuine Motorola. Both work as expected. I do prefer the car dock over the hd dock and i think the remote is a joke

update please
Been away from my amaze for a bit but ill add that I've used the adapter for a while now and its pretty simple to use. Since it plugs into the obd port it draws its power from there.
I've used it only with the torque app and its been flawless. U have to pair it in the phones settings first than look for it in the torque apps settings to connect.
I've used it to scan my truck a few times and my dads car, read the issues just fine. Torque is free put when u buy it u get a few more features.
I also leave it plugged in the truck and have never had it drain my battery.
Living life in reverse....
I just bought this OBDII adaptor and it works great. Paired with the Torque (free) app it does what I need it to. Gonna buy the app next pay day.

The only thing I don't like is you have to unplug it since it will drain your battery
I keep mine plugged in. It hasn't drained it yet. Hopefully it won't. Maybe I'll just unplug it since I don't use it all the time. It would be cool if we could actually do some slight programming. Like MAF tuning or valve timing adjustments. Gotta buy a $700 FlashPro for that tho.

It is actually slightly warm when you unplug it.

I guess you don't get temperatures -35C in winter time
I keep mine plugged in as well..in NY so the weather is always different but no issues for me.
I've been using an OBD2 adapter with several cars now and it's so convenient to have. Carrying around the A2107-F and doing 0-60's and everything looks so professional yet so fun :silly:
Wasn't this specific one though. It was a $17 one from ebay.
