LG has spare batteries and chargers in stock now. You may want to grab one of each. They each are $10 with free shipping when you buy both as a bundle.

yep...ive seen them on amazon for 99 bucks
Thanks for the head's up, just placed my order.
Received my charger/battery within 24hrs. of placing my order (was actually very shocked on their expedited shipping). The products do what they do. Rather happy with my purchases.

I bought a TF101 about a month ago, been itching to get a dock since then. Sadly stock has been scarce. The upside is that finally a couple of retailers have dropped the price on the dock here in Canada ($150 seemed expensive IMHO). For fellow TF Owners here in Canada I've seen the dock as low as $114 or a combined TF101 (16GB) and Dock for $499 (thesource email blast this morning). Anyone else looking for a dock at a good price I'd suggest bestdirect.ca or comtec.ca
Finally picked one up from BestDirect. Orderded July 11, 2011 22:00 delivered July 13, 2011 10:20 total price including taxes (free shipping) was $129.27 Canadian WOOHOO. Although this online retailer is located in BC they shipped it from Markham Ontario (perhaps because I am in Ontario). I'd highly suggest anyone in Canada looking for the dock save some time and money and check them out
Picked up a 16GB+keyboard dock for $499-$50 coupons = $450 from Staples.ca .... that's probably as good as it gets right now
it gets better
staples.ca does price matching. Go into the store with a printout of the amazon.ca deal where you get the 32GB+dock for 599 and they will price match (they gave me no trouble anyway)... so the dock ends up being 100 canadian.
****.. that's crazy cheap. x_X
Surroundedbytrees - was the dock you received from BestDirect a B50 or B60?
It's a B60 is that good/bad/ugly?

Just ordered one. It's not like I needed it but it was hard to pass up at that price.
Lets see how long it takes to get it.

shouldn't take too long, I ordered friday afternoon and it got shipped monday, someone else ordered friday evening when it was already backordered and just reported it got shipped today, the free shipping is via USPS delivery confirmation
Just got a couple of these from the Sprint store, only $30 each out the door, 20% discount for premier customers. Worth the couple extra bucks to have it yesterday instead of next week.

that's great
I tried going the sprint route with premier discount, but as I only need one igrip and Sprint requires 2 items to qualify for the discount, factoring in sale tax it comes out to nearly $40 w tax for the igrip + the cheapest 2nd accessory for any phone i can find to qualify for the premier discount, so I end up going for online, as I didn't need it right away and can afford to wait.
I also ordered one last week and received shipping confirmation today, with delivery confirmation number. Pretty good deal if you ask me
Yeah got my tracking nun this morning, can't wait

Ok, I will be the one to ask, will this work with any cases? OB defender in particular? Thanks,
Brew
NO it will not work with OB defender, the defender is too big.
It is compatible with SOME thinner cases, there's a removable insert, take out the insert to use the dock with cases, install the insert to use with naked phone
it will work with TPU cases, some reported that it also works with thin hard case, check the other threads about iGrip or Car Docks
thanks.
Brew
Thanks for this. I was actually looking at this dock the other day. I couldn't pass it up at this price.
ordered mine now! thanks OP
Ordered mine today too. Thanks OP.

Can anyone tell me if the iGrip does NOT come with a car charger, and I would need to buy one separately. Correct?

Correct. You'll need to purchase one separately. I've been using the car dock for about a week now. I have a thin carbon fiber look hard case on my EVO 3D and it fits perfectly when you take out the insert in the car dock.
Thanks OP, I just ordered mine as well.
I already have the official HTC car dock, I'll compare them and keep the one I think is better.

I had finally settled on the rooCase Slim-Fit Folio through Amazon (via PC Micro Store) as seen here:
http://www.amazon.com/rooCASE-Slim-Fit-Adjustable-Transformer-10-1-Inch/dp/B0058DLAA8/ref=pd_cp_e_3
Originally listed as available on July 18th, I ordered it last week in hopes of having it by Friday to take on vacation (and paid for expedited shipping as well). However I noticed today that the "available" date had been bumped to July 20th, and I hadn't received any shipping notices, so I fired off an email to check things out.
Unfortunately the case is now delayed until July 26th, which is when "they" will receive their shipment, and then start shipping. This won't work for me, as I'll be laid up in a Cabin in Colorado for 2 weeks The person who responded was very nice and apologetic for the delay, and offered to refund my expedited shipping charge (14.99) and still send the package expedited as soon as it was available. While a lovely gesture, it just doesn't help me in my current situation.
So now I'm without a case, and definitely need one before we leave on Saturday.
In your experience, do you think I could get a case (rooCase, Caseen, etc.) online and shipped in time for my trip without spending an arm and a leg, or should I head to Best Buy and try to find something that I can jam the Transformer in for my trip.
Just wanted to share the delay of the case, my good experience with PC Micro Store customer service, and ask if anyone had any suggestions to get something in my hands by Friday or Saturday. Thanks!
Great looking case!

I am in the same boat, minus the 2 week vacation. I do fly out Friday as well, but I will be flying back on Sunday. I also got the same email with the offer to refund the expedited shipping and still expedite once they get them in stock.
I have been traveling with just the cheap hp case and a stand:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0033RSNPG
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0049H8W1Y
I was really looking forward to the slim-fit though. As for other similar cases, anything roocase is out as there only looks to be one supplier for them. For any of the other ones it just depends on who is actually doing the shipping. Amazon is usually very good about making next/2-day as per the item page. You just have to be more careful about the purchases that don't actually come from Amazon. Whatever you are going to do, I would hurry up. You are just on the edge of rolling over to another shipping day for Amazon.
Good luck.
Edit: Yes...I am a sad Panda as well.
I ordered the same case but have been waiting since July 6th, I guess one more week is not such a big deal.What is a bit disconcerting is that the email says they will mark the order as shipped on Amazon.
+1 on the sad panda. But m not going anywhere and my transformer stays fine on my couch, without a case. Just saved some money! not so sad a panda now that I think about it.
Sent from my cell phone. DUH.
Thanks for the sad panda support guys! I went ahead and canceled the order, went to my local Micro Center and bought a cheap neoprene sleeve to hopefully keep my TF safe during travels (and kept the receipt and tags). Certainly not ideal, as I really wanted a folio that I could use to protect it and let my 20 month old son watch movies in the back seat on our long drive. Ah well, we shall perceiver!
Hopefully while I'm away, you guys will get your slim-fit and post some thoughts. If it's favorable ill go ahead and order one when I get back.
From the pictures, with this case we can connect the keyboard without removing the case, right?
I think I'll get this one.

Bump- as I also would like to know this...
I've been holding off because I'd really prefer buying a case that allows me to dock without removing the TF and I don't want to spend money on the Tuff-love because it's too expensive for me.
I ordered this case as well however I just canceled it. I found the Acase version of the slim fit on amazon that is in stock with free shipping. I originally paid the $20 for expedited shipping that wouldn't arrive until after Aug 4th to an FPO address. However the Acase offers free shipping that will arrive between Aug 1st and Aug 4th, or for the $5 shipping they have a guaranteed delivery of Jul 30th. The Acase version can be found at

For anyone that has wanted to order from electroniccrap.com, but held off because of high shipping costs, there is a $5 shipping special today to anywhere in the U.S.!
go check 'em out!

that is all....
even with 5 dollar shipping...they are more expensive than every other seller out there
Newegg currently has new dock for 129.99, refurbished for 119.99
They also have refurbished TF101 for 289.99. The sale started just today.
Amazon has new dock for 124.06. "Used - Very good" for 112.89 and "used - like new" for 115.38
If you are going to buy used, get the ones being sold directly by Amazon(aka eligible for free shipping or Prime) as Amazon has amazing return policy and quality guarantee on even used items.
"Used - Like New" is supposed to be in perfect physical condition according to Amazon's own definition of it. If what you receive isn't in perfect physical condition, even a little scratch, call up Amazon and they will give you a partial refund to make up for it.
www.bhphotovideo.com is doing even better. I got my used TF101 for $250 and the keyboard dock for $116 new.
They also have the TF101 new for $350 which is the best price I've seen for a new one.
Used has a 30 day return, 90 day warranty.
Just ordered my dock of the AAFES exchange website, usually 145 but a 17 percent April 1st coupon brought it down to 120.35. Pretty good deal if your eligible or know someone who is in the military. BTW the coupon is site wide but the only Transformer things they carry is the dock and a case
Or, like I said above, you could get it for $117 with free shipping, just need to be breathing to be eligible.

Yea that's probably the best price for a brand new dock(other than ebay) but it really depends on where you live. B&H's free shipping would be incredibly slow for me since it has to go from NY to CA.
I get free 2 day shipping at both NewEgg and Amazon but I prefer Amazon cuz of no tax lol.
Saving a few bucks is not worth waiting a week for it.
Makes sense. I get it in two days because I'm east coast.
Got a dock for $50 from a dumbass on ebay with a bad charger. He blamed it on his dock. When I got it, the dock worked flawlessly. I'm using it right now.
