I just bought a Rii Handheld keyboard (RII-518), and I am very happy with it.
It looks like this:

only smaller than you think, and it was only 35 dollars from this site: http://dx.com/p/mini-handheld-rechargeable-bluetooth-wireless-keyboard-93118
It pairs beautifully, and the only think I don't like about it is that it doesn't work right away when you turn it on. You sort of have to push a few buttons, and then change apps - but then it works fine. I usually just turn it on when I start using it, and then don't turn it off until I put the tablet away for the night.
Anyway, try it if you think it's for you.
Tempted to buy this. One of those items I would really like to test drive before I commit though. I have would be using it for note taking in class probably. Thoughts?
Looks nice n compact..
I've got one of the diNovo mini's.

Works well, and you have mouse control as well with the trackpad on the right.
I got this one and really like it

Both of those are rechargeable? And have you tried to do any extensive note taking?
Seems way over priced, have seen similar ones for 10$ shipped on ebay, Chinese ones

Build quality on the cheap Chinese ones can be very poor though, waste of $10 if you get it and the keys don't work properly.
Well, I won't say the Rii's quality is comparable to an old IBM Model M keyboard, but it certainly works! Well worth the money IMO.

Appears to be coming on Feb 11, 2011. This is probably the one I'll be getting.
Multiple pictures and details at the link. If you "add to cart" the price shows $28.47. Unknown if that will be the actual retail price or not.

This one? Its kinda universal but it looks like it would do.
http://www.ram-mount.com/Portals/0/PartImages/RAM-HOL-TAB2U.jpg
Looks like its for the BB Playbook, Dell Streak and the Galaxay Tab.
Like a universal mount, given that the dimensions are in the same vicinity.

Looks very bulky, especially the back part. Samsung's original car mount is also on the large side, but considering it has built in charger, I suppose that's understandable.
I know RAM mounts are very high-quality, but I can't see something this big standing on my dashboard.
I think I'm going to make my own mount from available RAM parts. A double suction mount seems like a perfect solution and size footprint is very small - basically it's going to have a suction cup on both ends, one for the glass and other to be used straight on the tab, without any adapter. Since GT has a very smooth and large back surface I am sure it will stick to it without problems.
That might work on yours. On my AT&T tab, the back has a very small cross-hatch pattern, and isn't smooth like glass. I don't think that would work on mine.
I have an iPad and a nexus s... The stylus works with both and wanted to share with you guys. I do recommend this stylus for drawing and note taking. I'm sure this will work with honeycomb tablets.
This stylus is called the E. Stylo stylus for capacitive screens.
e.stylo features:
- lightweight
- both tips work at different angles
- no extra pressure is needed for it to work
- works with gloves on
- smoothly glides over the screen
The final price of e.stylo will be $15.95 plus $4.99 US shipping and $7.99 for international shipping.
Purchased from http://www.Plai.tv/ if any artist/note takers are interested.
I also made a video of it....(videos in my signature) Check it out if u want to see how it responds on the nexus and iPad.
You can scroll the pictures to the right... sorry about the huge pics.

LOL nice
it looks like a small chopstick or a very thick toothpick
which BTW works the same way, in fact any soft edge pointy stick will do just the same
personally i prefer to use my finger nails to write, it's 100% natural in writing and you carry it with you all the time
It's very nice.... Just like a chopstick (edgy), as long as a pencil, and lightweight but not too light.... those pics suck.
I cant wait for the samsung tab, this would be a great stylus for it.
Once Sammy is out, I'm throwing the iPad in the trash. (for sale)
Hey guys,
I like to watch a bit of tv/video in bed on my Nexus 7, but have found it quite uncomfortable on the wrists after a while, especially if I am (as I like to do), laying on my side. So I have been looking for a case/cover which might provide a little relief to the wrist. To be honest I've not found much. Perhaps you guys can point me in the right direct for alternative solutions. The only thing I've so far found is a "Vangoddy Cases" available on Amazon here.
Anyway, for those of you who have had similar thoughts/have problems with arthritis etc I thought I'd flag this product up. Anyone find anything else please do let me know by replying to this post.
I know the youtube vid is not for the Nexus but you get the idea!
Cheers.

This is what I ordered for mine. My old 8.9 Galaxy Tab case was like this, except this one has a hand strap which I wish I had with my old case.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008L0U8F8
Yes I have the hard case (Harlin) , since I traveling on a crowded metro to and from work. There's a pouch for usb cases.
PS this "Logitech" bluetooth keyboard for Android 3+ works
all special keys work {calendar, mail, Google music app, volume}, but
the browser does not { need to investigate}.
I love my Nexus 7 - stock and all.

I just tried a Belkin case that used those corner straps and it covered up the power button.

Its a retro looking stand that you can lay your phone on top. It also doubles as an USB hub, but I haven't tried it out yet.
Any one using a similar docking stand/retro stand? Post some pictures.
My grandma has one of those.. But it doesn't have that big screen on the right side. :silly: haha
For reference it looks like this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00BF8NM6A/ref=redir_mdp_mobile
4 USB ports!
I don't have it, but I used a friends cheaper ebay one last summer with his iPhone and it felt like talking on a normal landline. If it had wireless connectivity, I'd get one.. Especially because talking with the Note II for over an hour can be taxing. (or I'm just weak)
It's an interesting idea but looks like a cheap implementation.

I agree, if this is wireless it would be a good accessoy to have. The wired handset feels a bit strange.
LOL, the 2nd reviewer says : funny item to try out
I'm wondering whether any 3rd party manufacturer will sell battery case attachment like these for Xperia Z. I think should be easy for them to build a custom one for XPZ since there are contact points for charging on the side.
The following is for Samsung Galaxy:

You want this phone to be bigger?!?
3rd? Where is 2nd?
The 2nd party is either you or Sony, depending on your point of view.
yes would like to have these untill they are ultra slim and no fancy bright leds and they use the dockinng ports to charge is always good and people would buy it even if its slightly expensive as long as they use good materials to compliment the phone looks and feel * which I highly doubt
You mean something like this one? Cost me less than 20 Euro delivered here in Oz, pretty high quality and 2,800mAh. Fits the phone perfectly and uses the external power pins. Perfect!

Here's a test of the power pack. I would say that 2,800mAh is optimistic but it can sure charge the phone once. Good to see that output being close to 1A, too.
