Does anybody know of d Bluetooth keyboard with a mouse touchpad that would work with the Gtab? I am looking for something compact that would be around the same size as electronic craps fuse case. Would like to have a transformer like set up but i can't afford the $550 for one . Anyone know something that would work @or be?

You may want to look into one of these. I haven't personnaly delt with this brand before, but I have used the logitech one that is a normal size keyboard with the USB bluetooth doggle. Worked like a charm. Found this one at TigerDirect.com

Laser Pointer, Presentation & Multimedia Controls & 3Yr Warranty w/ Reg.
Anyone tried and know where to source a bluetooth keyboard with integrated trackpad to be used with the JetStream? Even better if included in a case, but willing to carry separately if it works in the end.
2 years ago I bought a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard with a built-in 2button trackpad combo for about $70 CDN with the exchange.
I originally bought it for my ps3 bit I think I'll be using it more for my new Jetstream I just won thru rogers (boo yah).
I know it works well with HTC products (i use it on my raider all the time) so I can't see it losing any functionality when using it on the tab.
Hope this helps!

Thanks. The Adesso isn't cheap while looking good.
I'm trying to find the Asus keyboard to try it, it looked good as well.
Otherwise, I may elect to just go with a logitec + mini BT mouse, or this Adesso keyboard.

thanks for the information
I wanted to buy the prime keyboard dock today, but I'm wondering if a bluetooth keyboard, mouse kit would be better. Does anyone use a 3rd party keyboard/mouse combo, BT or otherwise?
I plan on using my prime with a desk, not so much on the go. As the touch screen virtualboard is fine on the go.
Not so much a $ issue as being more comfortable, creating documents, emails, researching, etc.
Any ideas, or experience would be greatly appreciated.
If its not $ issue might as well get a dock with full USB and SD card support with extended battery and uses the same charger. Its also nice that the dock has a home, back, sleep buttons. And the dock can be your stand that allows the tablet to be angled at any angle for the most part. Doest do 180 degrees though.

I've never used a Bluetooth keyboard so not sure there but the keyboard dock works great. I personally thought about getting a Bluetooth keyboard but Im glad I got the dock.
One of the "stickies" is about Bluetooth & WiFi....don't know if a keyboard would fall into that issue category or now....I have the dock and love it....wouldn't go for a bluetooth keyboard at all....+ I'm sure at sometime or other, there will be pairing or connection issues....since the dock is a "plug-in"....no issues
Plus, less to carry around....dock protects the screen when closed.
Check out the "Dock Club" thread

Had a bt keyboard for a while. It absolutely sucked. Lag from it being bt made it horrible. Tried 2 and they sucked. I ended up getting the asus dock and after about an hour of use with all the features asked myself wtf? Why didnt i do this sooner, lol
Theoretic the Asus doc is perfect because of the extra battery, Android keys etc. but it definitely is responsible in a certain amount for cracked screens. And Asus doesn't seem to stand behind their product and repair it under warranty...the doc is a perfect tool until it cracks the screen...

GameKlip Review:
I've been using the GameKlip for a few days now and here are my thoughts on it.
Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with GameKlip in any way other than as a satisfied customer.
First some background:
The GameKlip was created by a gentleman named Ryan French, a student at the University of Washington. He makes GameKlips for many android phones including all Galaxy S3 variants, the Galaxy Nexus, the HTC Evo 4G and One X, a bunch of Galaxy S2 variants, and the Galaxy Note. He is also developing a tablet version of the GameKlip. The GameKlip comes in both a wireless and wired version. This review is of the wireless version. The wired version is identical except it includes a mini usb to micro usb cable to connect the phone to the PS3 controller.
I love to play games on my G Note but I hate on screen controls, so I've been using the SixAxis controller app (Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...5ncGl4ZWxzdHVkaW9zLnNpeGF4aXNjb250cm9sbGVyIl0.) and a PS3 dual shock controller for a while. The only drawback is I had to prop the Note up somehow, either leaning it against something or using a case with a kickstand. So when I came across the GameKlip, I ordered one right away. Here are my thoughts on the GameKlip for the Galaxy Note I717.
The Good:
The GameKlip is well made and fits both the PS3 controller and the Note well. The GameKlip is constructed of black plastic. It takes a bit of wrestling to get it onto the PS3 controller, but once on the controller, it fits perfectly and securely. The GameKlip doesn't interfere with any of the buttons or bumpers and it holds the Note at a comfortable viewing angle. There are pieces of felt attached to the end tabs to prevent scratching on the edges of the Note and keeps it snug in the GameKlip.
The Bad:
The size of the GameKlip seems a bit narrow based on how wide the Note is. What I mean by that, is not much of the Note actually fits into the GameKlip. The GameKlip could have been another quarter inch or so taller t allow more of the device to fit into the GameKlip. The Note fits securly into the bracket, but I would feel better if more of the Note was held in the GameKlip.
The location of the bottom tabs on the GameKlip interfere with the hardware buttons on the Note. For example, if the Note is inserted with the micro usb connector to the left, the bottom right tab hits the power button. Alternately, if the Note is installed with the micro usb connector to the right, the bottom left tab hits the volume rocker. It prevents the Note from being fully inserted into the GameKlip bracket, which would not be a big deal except for the depth of the bracket is pretty shallow, as I noted previously.
Overall
Despite the couple design issues that I noted above, I am very satisfied with the GameKlip. It completely solves an issue that I had with mobile gaming and I give a lot of credit to the creator for identifying a smartphone accessory need that wasn't being addressed, or at least not being addressed properly, and creating a product that meets that need.
I have been using the GameKlip every day for my mobile gaming since I received it, and I definitely recommend this product to other smartphone owners who enjoy mobile gaming but hate on screen controls. I especially recommend this product to fellow Note owners because the size of the screen on our Note lends itself so well to gaming.
The GameKlip is available at www.thegameklip.com for $15.00 (wireless) and $23.00 USD plus shipping.
I'd definitely be in for one if he could make one that can accommodate the Mugen extended battery cover.
I'd be all over this but it doesn't work if you use a case...
If we get this, should we be getting the wired version or can we do it wireless?
Wireless works w/ the "Sixaxis Controller" app.
Yep, confirmed that the original PS3 Sixaxis as well as the DualShock work very well using the Sixaxis Controller app. Well worth the $2. I'm ten times better at "Dead Trigger" now than I was before. :laugh:
GameKlip mod
I just emailed GameKlip and requested a GNote Klip w/o the side holders (leaving the bottom ones intact). IMO this would be the first step to a universal solution since you could (in theory) glue/velcro a phone case to the back... I'd pay for this. If GK won't do this I might buy it as is anyway and file the side holders down... Anyone see any pitfalls to this solution?
I'm in for one with the cable. I will let you guys know if the cable actually works or not, but I figured I could save some battery by keeping bluetooth off. That is if it works.

You need root for wireless.
The wired option is an OTG cable, and a USB -> Mini USB cable which is pre-zipped tied for neatness.
Even tho' I am rooted, for me, the wired version is worth the extra $8.
I thought I came up with an awesome invention when I thought of this last week. Somebody beat me to it. lol
i just ended up buying one
So buying one

I almost put that in the bullet points of my post above, but then I wondered if the controller will try to charge itself off of the Note's battery, so left it out.

To my knowledge the only way to charge a PS3 controller is either directly connected to a PS3, a PS3 controller dock, or laptop USB. Hadn't thought about it until now (I assumed it wasn't possible) but wired play would be good for me whenever I want to use my Bluetooth headphones while playing.
Has anyone received it yet?!?

The guy posts in the forums for the s3 all the time quick responses, he mentioned something about making sizes that would work with certain cases.

I got mine of Thursday, does exactly what it says on the tin. You cannot push the Note fully home as the lips that stop the phone from sliding through the bracket will end up pressing the volume up button in Landscape or the power button in reverse landscape. But it does hold the phone very securely.
By the looks of the PS3's LEDs (All four flash when charging), and by how fast my battery depleted, the USB OTG does charge the controller, so make sure that the controller is fully charged before you hook it up to the Note.
One complaint about some game developers...
If the game is played in Landscape. SUPPORT BOTH LANDSCAPE ORIENTATIONS!
I have the Samsung flip cover installed, so I have to place the phone in the GameKlip in reverse landscape, which some games, such as the Sonic games, do not support.
Can we get some profiles uploaded, I cant get mine to work. I could use a Deadtrigger ,GTA3 and Ashphalt 6 Profiles

I don't know about Deadtrigger (looking for that one myself), and Asphalt, but GTA3 works just like the PSone via SixAxis Controller for me.

Dead Trigger has gamepad support already, so there is no need to create a touch profile with the Sixaxis app. Make sure your controller is connected, then start the game. You should see a new gamepad option in the menus somewhere, and that will let you customize the controls.
When the Razer phone was announced I expected Razer to come up with their own controller case (like the controller for moto mods).
Since that was not the case, I was wondering what other options we have for the Razer phone...

CamRom® Telescopic Wireless Bluetooth Game Controller Gamepad Joystick for Samsung iPhone iPod iPad Android Phone Tablet PC CA1042ZR
Hit up fasttech.. They have many Bluetooth controller that will fit our phone and make it shaped like just about every handheld you can imagine.
I just purchased this about 2 weeks ago and it's been great so far, it connected instantly with no issues and worked out of the box with 99% of the emulators and games on my device without even messing with the button mapping. It has no lag that I can see, and has amazing battery life, I haven't charged it yet since I got and I've used it at least 4 hours each day. The phone fits in it perfectly with out a case, and even with the bulky case that I have on it now I can still squeeze it in and it holds securely. I'd recommend it if your looking for a controller.
Edit: apparently I'm not allowed to post links because I don't have more then 10 posts, but if you go to Amazon and search "Bounabay Wireless Telescopic Bluetooth Controller" it's the first result
Bit late on the reply but Razer do have an older Bluetooth mobile controller they made for their Forge TV, it's called the Razer Serval and from the looks of its images on Amazon UK it has a clip for mobiles. I know it won't be everyone's cup of tea if they prefer the actual case controller instead of a clip controller.
