I just picked up a TF700 dock at Best Buy for $99+tax. I've been usin it a couple days and I don't see any problems. Apparently the TF700 and TF201 docks are almost identical. I was even able to put on my carbon fiber sticker/protector thing all on it. My actual tablet has a screen protector on the front and the carbon fiber sticker stuff on the back and it still fits into the **** connector no problem.

I bought the "tf700 dock" off amazon, correct SKU and all, and it turned out to be a rebadged TF201 dock with the battery balance issues (transformer tips over because the base isnt heavy enough.
Wasnt too happy about that. Confirm that this is the true TF700 dock?
AFIK the TF201 dock has a higher capacity battery than the TF700 dock, otherwise they are pretty much the same. Is the TF700 dock heavier?

Well I ordered a dock and the guy on eBay sent me some police radar guns instead, so I have to ship them back to him and he will send me the dock free (he said he will refund it and ship the dock)
So I went to best buy to buy the dock instead of waiting for him, my store didn't have them on sale so I had to order it for store pickup to get the price. I found it weird but whatever.
I really hope this works with the TF201... I don't get the tablet until tomorrow
Nexus 4. Paranoid edition.
I'd keep the police radar guns, those will be worth more than a keyboard, I'd sell it but that's just me...

Looks cool. I would buy it but I'm not sure how the magnet would affect the compass and I don't know if I need more protection. At $9.98 it's a great price though. Very tempting. Thanks for showing...

It looks to me like it is blocking the speakers ?
Can you verify (or hopefully, not verify) ?
How's the overall quality ?

It doesn't block the speakers. It's the same case as the $25 roocase here:

I've given up on the "wrap around the outside but doesn't cover the beautiful back" silicon case that apparently will never come up. Went ahead and ordered one of these.
Can't you just but a silicone case and cut out the back using a box cutter? Or you looking for something different?
VIPERTEK Premium Slim Leather Case Folio with Built-In Stand for Asus Eee Pad Transformer 10.1-Inch TF101 Android Tablet Wi-Fi (Black)
Anyone bought or have this item?
Is there a opening for charging when the cover is close, like Poetic version?
Thanks!
Ya I just bought it about an hour ago, it cost me $8 should be here sometime before friday, I'll let you know how it is, even though it does look like its made from the same people who made the roocase, and vertek. I think all they're doing is stamping their logos on them..

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.

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!

I ordered this one as well. Hoping that it and the tablet both arrive on the 5th.
This my Targas case I bought from best buy yesterday for $19.99. Really good quality and nice padding inside to protect my prime and keep it scratch free. This will do until I find a real case that fits around the prime itself. This is more like a travel case but it'll do for now. I posted pix of the inside of it also so you can see the padding.

Got this from five below. It is a network case the the prime fits in perfectly. The 2 Styrofoam pieces aren't supposed to be there. I left the original one and took another one and I puts the prime between the 2 pieces. Works well

I just ordered this Poetic Case - I prefer a case that doesn't cover the front bezel. Plus it bends in such a way that I can still use it with the dock. I'll probably pick up a cheap sleeve for the dock.
Yep, I ordered the same one for the same reasons.

Let us know how you like it when you actually get it.
I ordered this VanGoddy case:

I hope it fits correctly. The name is suspiciously over specific.
It should arrive any day now, I'll let you all know how it fits.
I also ordered Poetic(TM) StandBook Stand Leather Case with Angle Adjustable for Asus Eee Pad Prime TF201 Black. My order says estimated delivery Jan 17-20. Maybe they don't really have them in stock.
I noticed that it says "Processing takes an additional 4 to 5 days" on the Poetic Case page.
I placed my order on the first. It doesn't show as shipped yet, but my delivery estimate says January 11-13.

so you need 1 case and 1 sleeve
wow, no ones getting that giant case with the extra removable piece for the keyboard I was wondering if it was worth it or not
I am waiting for a case for both the dock and tablet also.
i went out and bought a 10.2 netbook case from HP @ BB for $15
works well enough, but not quite what i really want though, this is to just save me until some manufactures get off their butts and produce something for us....
Anyone having issues with the bumpers on the docking station? I just notched that the bumper below the touchpad on my dock is missing.
Mine is still there but yeah, you got to watch out. I think they are just glued on. You should find something to put there as a replacement otherwise the dock might start rubbing against your screen.

Good point. I have already contacted ASUS to see if they can just ship me a couple replacement bumpers. If not then back to Amazon it will go.
Can't copy a web browser but eBay tf300 360 and see what you think. I don't care for the 360 feature but I like how these have no tabs that require constant popping in and out. Too bad they aren't on amazon so I can see reviews. Post if you've tried one, where you got it, if you liked it, etc. Thanks.
Anyone?
Looks just like the other ones on amazon like the moko and poetic ones that rotate. What's the differences?

Hi, just ordered today 360° Rotating Case for Asus Transformer Pad TF300 TF300T Tablet + Stylus E37X ( 221047606532 ) on Ebay...
When received, must be shipped from Hong Kong to the Netherlands... so will be here in some weeks :angel:
When received, i'll put some experiences here :good:
I have this case on my tf300. It does make the tablet bulkier, but i like the fact i can have it rotate 360. The quality is alright, i guess standard fake leather. I can use the dock with it, i just need to fold the cover all the way.

Can't post an outside link but Amazon has a Moko 360 made for the TF300.
I bought this case same time as the TF300. Cutouts are all there and in the right place. Really holds the tablet inside so there's slim/zero chance of it slipping out. Well built, sturdy, top-heavy when the tablet is at highest angle portrait but I'd never use it that way. 3 detents to hold at three angles could be a little more pronounced but they do the job.
If I buy another tablet I would look for this case for it.
Same here. Just received, TF300T fits perfectly...

I have tried a Belkin sleeve previously but that was too small for my tf201 and all the other recommendations have been for netbooks IE the tablet with the dock which I don't want as I don't carry the dock around with me all the time and the tablet itself is lose in the sleeve without the dock again..not wanted
so any suggestions ?

This is what I have been using since I got my prime months ago, lot of space for stuff, fits even with a case on(roocase leather folio case) still feels and looks brand-new. I got mine for 10$

does the prime not flap around inside ?
Hmm not really, it does slightly when it is the only thing in there but for the most part it's a pretty tight fit but the material can stretch to accommodate more items

I got one i bought from Blacks, no link but its just the right size. Generally, look for cases for netbooks. Most netbooks are about the same size as the prime. Also check cell phone stores, smaller electronics shops, more of the less mainstream areas. Theres a kiosk in my mall buy sells only tablet stuff. Check out places like this, and ebay. you can find lots of good deals on ebay just make sure "buyer beware", know what your buying
Happy hunting!

Since you are looking for a sleeve, Thinkgeek offers this one which should fit the Prime as well based on the size of the sleeve:
