Like the title says.... which do you think should be my new toy? Lapdock for our phone or a particular tablet
Pros and cons
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Negative on the lapdock.
I've been looking into the Xoom vs galaxy 10.1 and I'm partial to the Xoom because of the stock honeycomb, unlockable/lockable bootloader, and aluminum back. Some of the GT10 devices suffer from 'oil slicks' when the screen touches the glass because it is so thin.
I've also been looking into the Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet (not the ugly ideapad) but I'm thinking the dev community behind it wont be that great.

Peruse the Q&A and General sections for stories of the lapdock (both bad and good). However, between those two tablets I have no experience.

Just try to buy a TouchPad from the next batch of sales HP is supposedly gonna do in a week. By the time you ever get your hands on one, the CyanogenMod port will be out lol. Thankfully I was lucky enough to snag one within a week of the fire sale announcement. I'm typing this post on it right now actually.
Is anyone else excited about the transformer prime releasing on dec 8th. The specs are amazing. Just wanted to get your input on this tablet as I am looking into buying it when it releases. How good do u all think development will be? Thanks for responding.

Yes, no question.
Love the keyboard add-on too.
I really wish they would be smart about the price and go lower than $499.99 though.
seriously considering it. had an ipad2 but sold it once the et4g came out. the transformer prime looks RIDICULOUS
I love my transformer 1 but the prime is everything I wished the TF1 was especially than it's thinner and lighter than the ipad 2, thinner but just a hair heavier than the galaxy tab 10.1. I most likely wont be able to get it for myself until january. Then I plan on buying the tablet first, selling my tf 1 and dock, then buying the dock
Nuff nuff gonna sell my hp touchpad to cover part of the prime

I'm with you guys. It is gonna be great. His was the first transformer prime? Is Dec 8th the actual release date?
Yes Matty the keyboard looks so cool. I'm selling my Ipad for this beast.

It does have nice specs, and it's thin and all that, but I have some reservations. First, it's expensive, especially if you get the keyboard. The quad-core(actually 5 core) Tegra chip sounds good, but until apps are written to specifically take advantage of it, the speed increase won't be as great as it could be. I would have preferred a screen with better than 1280x800, and lived with a dual-core processor.
Foo shooo... Got my pre order in from newegg. My first tablet!

I won't buy until it has a USB port ON THE TABLET. Bummer because it's close to perfect otherwise.
Better resolution would have been nice.
I'll wait for Samsung to release their next tablet before ever going with an Asus tablet again. I went through 4 TFs before giving up and jumping to the GT10.1. Haven't looked back since. The TF had one of the worst build quality I have seen on an electronic device.
hopefully early next year, so far its the only tablet I've had any interest in.

I have the og transformer, and really want to get the new one, but I can't really justify spending all that money on my college student budget when my og does most of the same. The transformer is an awesome tablet though. For anyone who doesn't have one already I recommend it.
It is especially great for college students who need a proper keyboard to take notes on in class and need the extra battery life so they can stay on campus all day and not worry about getting the coveted spots with outlets to study at.
Maybe if I can sell my og with keyboard for around 400 then I can upgrade.

I'm probably going to do it. I've been holding off on a tablet for years now, and at this point I feel one such as the Prime is more than powerful enough to last me through several years of tantalizing new chipsets. I still use a 1.6ghz dual core laptop from '06. ;-)
I personally don't see the use for tablets if you a Smartphone and a laptop.... tablets don't make calls and can't do a lot of what a laptop can do but to each his/her own. I personally won't be buying one, instead I will wait for quad core phones to hit and then cough up the 500 to upgrade early from my magnificent ET.
I probably won't be picking it up as I have the original TF and dock and hardly get any use out of it to begin with. Shame because the Prime looks amazing. I think a full blown laptop would have better suited my needs.

John that is one hell if a question. I don't know but wouldn't it have to be windows to run Odin? Also it is hard to justify 500 bucks for a tablet but that quad core keeps calling my name. Lol. Going to be selling some things to help with the cost so I feel better.

Hi what is best for webtop? And developement?
Looking to buy one (in france) but want to know whats the best ?
Atrix still has plenty of dev support. It's a little slow right now since we are waiting for ICS, but once that comes out then we will have CM9/10 goodness to look forward to.
ICS is scheduled to be released anytime between now and Oct 1st...

Maybe Razr is better.Atrix still hasn't ICS.MOTO pays more attention toRazr.

I can`t wait to get the ics goodyes my first android phone was a motorola defy ,it was a great phone but the fact that nothing official was realeased for it made me sell it after that i got the crappy g2 for htc and nwo i have the gorgeous atrix wich i love for its design battery and performance and after the ics update IT WILL BE THE BEST PHONE EVER
The Razr is a better phone IMO. The Atrix is great and has served me well but I feel that the Razr is better if you can find one priced similarly to the Atrix. Also, the Razr feels better built than the Atrix. Maybe its just me against plastic, but Kevlar is way cooler. Both phones have awesome dev communities though.
Sent from my undervolted, underclocked, power saving Motorola Atrix.
Razr is defiantly the better phone, it also tends to cost more. For the price of Razr you can get Atrix plus lapdoc. So, it depends on your budget.

Atrix! Just sold my recently acquired razr: No fingerprint reader, Webtop 3.1 sucks! And lapdocks too! So big and so thin to get it hold... Ics? Someday we'll see it on our Atrix so no big deal!
Nothing like an Atrix with a good custom rom and the Webtop2sd or ubuntop mod.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
Razr is a little too big. But Razr max has really great battery and this is only reason for me to think about it.
I'm looking to buy a working RAZR, RAZR MAXX or RAZR MAZZ HD. If anyone is looking to get rid of theirs send me a PM.

It is an OG RaZr with minor cosmetic wear from use. I've had it since christmas 2011. It has been a good phone with no problems. I have a plethora of accessories for it as well. HD dock, HD station, OtterBoxes and other cases as well.

How much would you be looking to get for the phone and docking station?
Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
I'd like to get $450 for all of it if i could. If i sell it i won't have any need for any of the accessories. If you can't do that i would need $300 for just the phone and the HD station. I can throw in an OtterBox Defender for that price as well.

Ah that's far too much for my budget. I could bid for one on eBay for less or just wait for my upgrade to become available. Thanks for your time.

Looking into buying the lapdock 500 just got a few questions..
1. Is it worth buying if i have laptop and a xyboard already?
2. Do i have to have a separate data plan or could i just use it as an upgrade from the xyboard?
3. Still worth buying since it has been out so long? Anything newer coming out in the near future?
I have a droid razr maxx and the droid xyboard 8.2. I primarily bought the xyboard for school to take notes on and basic research while in class instead of lugging around my dell. Lapdock seems to be more of an all in one package. Any suggestions?

My opinion: I think not worth it.
i don't have a lapdock but at the beginning when i got my rarz i was gonna buy it too.
but the problem is that i have a laptop and a desktop (in your case a tablet) why would u need the lapdock?
in my case it would be so awesome to have and do a lot stuff with it for the first week or month but you're gonna get bored and is not gonna be the same as a laptop, but if you're not using your xyboard then you could try it. but let me remind you that motorola won't launch more new cellphones with lapdock support so you're gonna waste that money, if that's not a problem for you then buy it. but for what i see naa it's not necessary.
PD: Sorry, bad english ^^
No, not worth it. The lapdocks do not work properly with the newer Stock ROMs. So don't waste your money. They also do not work with most (if not all) custom ROMs.
