S-Pen Holder $10 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

So I want the S-pen holder, but don't want to pay $59 dollars for it. I don't need/want the extra S-pen. Is there anything extra the S-pen holder does besides hold the S-pen that justifies the cost?Can I buy just the holder no extra S-pen for around $10? Is there any other product that is able to hold the S-pen like a pen for around $10?

I'm kind of surprised I can't find it on Life Hacker or anything, but it seems like it would be really simple to make your own if you're macgyverly inclined.

AT&T has it on their site for $29 right now. I'm not too sure if the price is honored in their stores but I would guess it would be or you could do price matching at Best Buy when it's available.
Another option is just to get a compatible Wacom stylus. Pretty good thread on the int'l version's accessories forum about compatible products -

XDA IIs stylus

I know they are relativelyinexpensive item, but when I broke one & lost one I went out to buy a replacement. I could get any number of palm stylus 3 for $9 or 3 for $19 but none that fitted my XDA IIs. Then I went online and found the cheapest I could get mine was 3 for $30. Has anyone found any cheaper ones?
Also be aware of the 3 in 1, if the tip comes off for the pen, it can get stuck in the clip that holds it...
Good point about the 3-in-1 stylus. While in Hong Kong, I tried a few different brands until I found one where the cap didn't come off. I had to use needle nose pliers to pull them out. It is better to find this item at a retailer because you do want to test them. It is a great accessory though.
Replacement Stylii
Has anyone had any luck finding replacement styli for the Blue Angel? Mine broke last night, and I can't find the second which -- theoretically -- came in the box. I found my styli for my old XDA, my XDA II and some plastic one for an original Palm Pilot I still have laying around... <sigh>.
Anyway, I see them up on eBay -- and the sales prices aren't too bad. But the shipping and handling are three times the cost of the stylus -- and the price "break" for ordering multiple items only makes shipping for the additional items cost as much as the stylus itself!!!
Anyway, any direction you can point me would be most appreciated.
Thanks!
has anyone found a cheap stylus yet? i would be willing to buy in bulk and sell them at cost to everyone on here.

[Q] Help me pick a sleeve

Ok, so I am looking for something temporary that makes it easy to take the tablet out and use and i think i prefer not having a zipper because i just dont think metal needs to be anywhere near the tablet when it comes to a case. So I am thinking about one of the 3 cases and they are all under $10. Free 2 day shipping with amazon prime as well. My biggest concerns with them though is that they might be to big. I dont want the tablet sliding around in it. Here are the options i have found so far:
http://www.amazon.com/Envelop-Neopr...?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1305695940&sr=1-39
http://www.amazon.com/Kensington-K6...2-Inch/dp/B002NU5R3A/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
http://www.amazon.com/Asus-T101MT-E...TF8&coliid=I3ULO79FFYTHW8&colid=3V2S2G7N6FICX
I am kind of leaning towards the Asus one above, but the envelope style one might be nice. I didnt find any in the compatible thread that fit my needs. I will probably be getting a dock (whenever best buy has them available as i have a $100 BB gift card to burn there), nothing is in stone yet. I really wanted a case with a stand, but the asus transformer one seems like crap and the price is to high and doesnt work with the dock.
Help me make a decision as i have been shopping to long. =) I could just buy 2 of the 3, but i dont want to waste money either and Im not one to return a $10 item. I am open to other ideas as well. Thanks!
Keep your eye

Keep your eye on It2steve's site: electroniccrap.com If you want to waiting about 9days. You will not be disappointed.
Just ordered one from ebay for 10" netbook, should only have 2cm more than the transformer on the width... should fit great with the keyboard dock and only 3.28$
Here is the link for anyone interested, (also, does anyone actually tried those sleeve and how did it fit, i am waiting for my dock to come in but the dimensions should fit or be really close...)
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250759188954#ht_4779wt_1035
as for the messenger bag, i would have definately got one from amazon but i am in canada and the shipping is monstruous and the ones from amazon.CA are 3-4 times the price so i am looking on ebay...
If you are Sam's Club member
I found a sleeve at Sam's Club for 7.88 by Case Logic. Zips shut and has a small pocket on the front the cord and power supply (I keep an micro fiber cloth for cleaning the display also). Works great with the tablet and keyboard.
I ended up getting the Asus one as it was only about $12 after overnight shipping. Will update you guys on how it fits.

Accessories for the Jetstream

What accessories exist for the Jetstream?

I am not sure, however, after exploring the tablet software a little bit there is an awesome desktop dock application that shows the weather, the htc clock, and facebook updates. So I take it we will see a home dock in the near feature. I wish a car dock would come out, but because of its size and legality of videos playing while driving, we probably won't see one of those.
The only two accessories that I know of are:
HTC Scribe Pen - $80
Anti-Glare Screen Protector @ AT&T - $20
- Dan
Actually, if you go to Amazon and search for HTC Puccini, a tpc case also shows up. No case, though....soon, I hope!

For anyone looking for decent case that fits the HTC Jetstream until cases that are made for this product reach the market. I have been using a Targus (Truss Leather Case / Stand) Model Number THZ07002US from Best Buy.
It’s a case that was made to fit an Acer ICONIA TAB A500 10.1 pad. It works as a cover and a stand that has three viewing angles in stand mode. It also has a slot for the styles pen but it’s a little bulky, doesn’t fit as tightly as I would like and it covers the back camera. All that said you can easily reach the on off switch, head phone jack, volume controls and even plug the unit in without taking the pad out of the case.
I still want to buy a case made for my unit that lets me use the back camera and that fits a little better but until they become available I needed some thing to protect my new overpriced but amazing Jetstream.
Looks like PDAir will be making some and rooCASE will have some nice ones ready October 19 on Amazon...they look nice.
scribe pen
is the scribe pen still coming free with the device if its bought in store? thanks
Yes, until October 15...
Pen Issues
I bought the unit in person last week, just before closing on my way home from work. The ATT store did not include the pen with my purchase and I forgot to ask for it. I went back in the am to get it and boy did it get interesting.
They started out with the story that the Pen only was included if you bought the data plan on a 2 year commitment?
I said really? Show me where it says that? I have seen the pen offered in EVERY AD as free with purchase for a limited time.
We went round and round and the finally relented but what a PIA....
ATT is truly clueless when it comes to it's own products, promotions etc.
Love the Jetstream, dont love the hoops you have to jump through.
How about NO ONE knowing when the LTE network is turning on?
Why am I paying for a data plan for something that is not ever available yet and has no timeline?
I passed on the data.
Have unlimited wifi tether on my rooted inspire so that's my dataplan.
Yeah I didnt think they were all coming with pens, hope mine has one with it ><
Didn't have that issue. I am WiFi only and they asked to register me and I said I didn't really need to because I was using it only on WiFi networks. Got the pen nonetheless.
I think you are supposed to have a data plan, but the advertising was hazy....and the ATT rep said without me asking that I got the pen. I really think it depends on the person.
ATT doesn't have good reception in my neck of the woods, so Sprint is my provider. like you, Tracy, I just tether.
Skinomi has screen protectors and skins. There is also a 25% coupon.
www.skinomi.com
Coupon code is skinomi25 plus free shipping.
They are good skins. Apply like Zagg but no orange peel. They are slick.
Case/cover for Jetstream
Picked this case up on Amazon last week.
http://www.amazon.com/HTC-PUCCINI-S...H4TA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1316444249&sr=8-3
For 9.99 was not expecting much....Case is great....Soft and flexibile. Covers the back and all the corners and makes holding easy.
I recommend highly.
Tracy
Has anybody heard about a folio case that allows it to stand up, much like the Xoom case? It's really the only thing I find the device is missing.
Melkco says they are working on one. So does PDAir. RooCASE will have one ready mid-October....you can see the rooCASE on Amazon. PDAir on their own website, and I conducted Melkco on my own....
Looks like we will have to be patient. The gel case on Amazon works well for the time being....
found this new case on ebay - looks good - will order one and see how is it
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sikai-Mibro...985919?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2eb825e17f
Found this case on the HTC website. It is the official case. I assume it looks just lile the Flyer case..
http://shopamerica.htc.com/product/productpop.htm?prId=39802
Due to being in a rush, i got this case for $70 at WalMart
www.kensington.com/kensington/us/us/p/1615/K39336US/keyfolio™-bluetooth®-keyboard-case.aspx
Had to make some mods such as cutting a big hole for the camera and cutting some of the elastic for clear the volume and power buttons. Also cut some of the front 'frame' so the screen is fully visable.
IMPORTANT: Just be aware the two/three small holes on the top of the Jetstream are light sesons for the flash/camera, so the hole you cut for the camera must be big enough allow light access to those small holes. The BT keyboard works great with it too.
did u get the case?

this is the email i got from tpu
clay also is an international note owner
A customer support staff member has replied to your support request, #711 with the following response:
Hi Tyler,
We are making a case for it, we just wanted to be sure that the AT&T version was the same as the International version. I'm glad we waited as it turns out the AT&T version is slightly thinner. I'm still waiting on confirmation of the mic placements as well, AT&T has been known to move them on previous phones. As soon as we have a 100% confirmation of the design of the phone we will start making our mold.
Best,
Clay
We hope this response has sufficiently answered your questions. If not, please reply to this email.
Errr lol....I predicted all along that basically all intl Note accessories should work with at&t version.
But if the info from them is accurate, then looks like the opposite.
I'm also counting on those various HK and Singapore vendors to quickly release TPU cases for at&t Note.
I only have used TPU cases for the last several phones I had....best combination of thinness, and the dust repellant element.
I hope its not true just received my tpu case I paid 5 bucks for. Looks great hopefully it works. We will see on the 19th. They don't even have a phone to verify the thickness. So how can they be sure?
Sent from the SuperStreak! ;-)
I'm just glad the $30 case I ordered was advertised for the i717 . . . sending it back if it doesn't fit!!
Rearth is selling theirs as i717 specific and the cases look identical (mic placement). They have pictures up of the case on the i717 but I wouldn't be surprised if they're photoshops.
tpu-cases by diztronic are top notch and the best cases i have ever used on my phones.
matte black of course

Rearth just emailed me back and said they designerd their i717 cases with a unit in hand. Assuming that's true that means mic placement is the same as N7000 based on these pictures.
I went to best buy yesterday and an employee gave me a note model to check if my case would work. It does. mic placement is the same.

I did not think the dimensions of the two models would be different enough that they were not be interchangeable on the cases. Thanks of the update!

I meant best overall case i've ever used. Im including the 10$, 25$, and even the 35$+ ive spent on cases.
It's super light, it's durable, doesnt scratch easily, the material is flexible yet super tough, and it protects the entire side/back of the phone. Use a decent screen protector, and chances of your phone ever getting knicked/scratched are pretty slim to none.

That case is IDENTICAL to the Boxwave UniColor case. Google it- it can be found cheaper.

YO chkit
I just got this case http://www.ebay.com/itm/360432836241?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 take a look tell me how great it is
Exactly the same case can be had for $4.88 + Free shipping
http://www.ebay.com/itm/110824258506
These US sellers really make killing profits on this. These case are OEM case, real cost is like $2 or less. They import them in large quantity to US and sell for $16+
So.. Yes, you're still sending money to China but now you're also giving $14+ to US middle man
You have the right to your own opinion and you have the right to do whatever you want with your money, if you're happy to spend that much, then good for you.
But I also have my own opinion and here it is..
You know what, the real cost for this is actually in the range of 10-20cents.
US sellers (most of them are individuals working from their garage) import them in bulk, with import taxes and shipping cost, there's no way it will be more than $1 for each case.
If these US sellers sell the case for $10 (that's 900% profit) or less I won't mind buying from them. But selling it for $16+ and saying MSRP for this is $30+ is just pure greed.
I'm all in for supporting US economy, if these cases are made in US and selling for whatever price, I wouldn't think much before buying from them.
Oh, btw, another bad news for you, about 90% of the price you pay for your new Galaxy Note goes to South Korea.

Tpu and Hybrids and Flip cases oh my! sung to tune of Wizard of Oz

After returning two cases to T-Mobile, looking at the lame Incipio cases at ATT, looking at Amazon every day and almost pulling the trigger on a cheap enough Supcase, I finally scrolled thru all the crap on Ebay and ordered 3 cases for a grand total of 22 dollars, yes 20 dollars less than the cheapest case at T-Mobile or ATT. Can you believe the S-View is 65 dollars at Att online, 59.99 from Samsung and lucky for me back ordered or I would have wasted money lol. I'm sure one of these 3 cases will be a winner, a man can dream right?
I originally had 6 cases in my cart and then narrowed it down, I have a white Note 3 fyi, here are the links to the 3 finalists in case anyone likes my taste, it took me 2 hours to wade through pages of them. I only looked at sellers in the United States, only Free shipping and of course buy it now. Can you believe some guy was reselling 5 dollar Upcases from Amazon for 49.99 on Ebay? I doubt anyone is dumb enough to buy one, especially savvy Note 3 owners. Guess I'll be reviewing these 3 cases in a few days lol

The Caseology case could be found cheaper on Amazon and that S View case you bought will not work as stated by other users in the S View threads. The $65 cases are the only working S View cases as of this moment. If you can cancel that Caseology case, you should and buy it on Amazon. It's the same seller too.

The Caseology is the same price once you add the 3 dollar shipping charge on Amazon it becomes 7.99 as well.
I put in a cancel request for the S-View one, worst case he sends it and I don't like I can return it. The description does say it will turn off and on the screen and you can use clocks and music etc thru the window, I sent him a message saying if they don't work I want to cancel but he is 98% rated on Ebay big seller so I'm sure he won't want a bad review either way.

They put "Leather" and "Matte" in their title. That's what got me since on Amazon it's either matte or the leather version. I was thinking of just the leather case which is $5 shipped.
