I just received this case from Ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310278043272&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
Price was $7.59 with free shipping. Shipped the same day I ordered it.
A7 fits in it, although there's not much room. Corners of the A7 protrude slightly.
But, I am pretty happy with it, especially for the price.
You can open it up and stick the flap in the other side to hold it at an angle if you'd like.
Power button, charging port and headphone jack are accessible. You would have to slide one of the elastic bands over to access the USB and HDMI ports, but it's no big deal.
The way I have it in the case right now, you have to open it to charge it. But, you could flip the A7 if you'd prefer access to the port when closed.
I like the soft leather (?) interior. I think it will prevent any scratches on the screen, which is why I bought a case.
Thanks man. I figure it's worth the $8.

Its an okay case however did you know that some of the Nook Color Cases will work with the Elocity. The devices are the same size with the exception of the Elocity being thicker. I have found several cases at Barnes & Noble that work with the Elocity.
I went to check out some Nook/Nook Color covers tonight but found that none of them were quite right for me. Most didn't fit or hold the A7 in place. The few that almost worked were too short, I don't mind if a little bit of the device shows but too much was exposed.
I just ordered one of these and can't wait to get it. Thanks for the images, they really helped me make my decision.
Thanks from me too I ordered one as well. I figure 7 bucks shipped isn't too bad a risk.
Confirming that the nook color zipper case is the only one that works with th A7. The A7 fits into the book type cases but it does not clamp in tightly and can easily fall out. I picked up the neoptene zipper one from Barnes and Noble and it has a very nice fit. Not loose and moving around at all. $30 bucks though.
Is that a sleeve or a case Cadiken?
Zipper sleve if you will. You cannot use the A7while it is in there.
Received my case from ebay, thanks!

Possible cases?
Hey guys,
I'm currently deployed in Iraq. I just bought the A7 and am awaiting its arrival any day now. I very very excited. I obviously dont have access to Barnes & Noble so I was wondering since most of you have checked out the cases there if any of you came across these two cases for the nook color? Do you think they might fit the A7? It wont let me post outside links until I have posted 8 times. But both cases can be found on Amazon. Thanks in advance!

I have the e-bay case, I would recommend it. It allows you to open and close, as well prop up to watch movies
It won't block dust, but it will protect the front. I have a belkin kindle 2g sleeve that is neoprene that does slide over the entire ensemble if you are looking for dust protection (though there is a bit of extra room).
Case
Yeah I tried ordering it from ebay but the seller wont send it to my deployed location. My most reliable sources are Amazon being the primary and tigerdirect/newegg.com
I ordered and received the case from ebay mentioned by JAZZBONE at the beginnging of this thread. I like it, it works well at protecting the screen and tucking the closure strap in while in the open position does indeed make for a great stand. I inserted my A7 so the charging port can be accessed while closed. When I am on the road I flip it so the earphone port can be accessed while closed. It would be nice if it were padded. I am anxious to see the case eLocity will be selling.
Is everyone who bought this case still happy with it?
I bought it and I like it. It protects the screen. It doesn't interfere with the micro sized micro card reader I keep in the USB slot. The elastic on the other end of the case holds down the door that was covering the USB and HDMI slots.
I also have a neoprene case on the way from Amazon. Hopefully the A7 and the eBay case will fit inside it to keep dust out and keep the tablet safer in my purse.
I also ordered a neoprene case from Amazon,it said it was for the a7 and came with a screen saver,if its the same one I ordered you will have plenty of room with some to spare.
I ordered too! I already scratched the front of my elocity so I'm sure this will provide some protection.

Hello,
I would like to find a case that will fit my Elocity A7. I am looking for one that is something like a Barnes & Noble Nook Case or any Ereader case for that matter. Something that will fit or at least not be bulky. My point is has anyone found working accessories for their Elocity A7

I ordered two cases from Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310278043272
I should have them in a couple of days.
I'll post a report then.
Jazz- that looks like a pretty good case. Looking forward to your review.
I'm hesitant to buy a case like that for fear that the A7, with its huge bezel, won't fit in it. The bezel basically makes it longer than most 7inch tablets.
I ultimately just went and bought the Nook Color sleeve at Barnes and Noble. It took a bit of stretching to get the sleeve to zipper over the A7 but it fit nonetheless. Hopefully, in time, it will just stretch.
If I can get a case like that one on eBay to fit perfectly, I'd buy it.
i found a neoprene softshell zipper case at Kohl's. its for any generic universal ereader for $10.

I'm going to check Best Buy / Target / etc in the next couple of days... I'll take the tablet in to be sure. Will report back after!
BTW - Huwaei Tablet Zagg screen protector from best buy should fit our devices pretty well. I had one on my Archos and it worked well with a slight trim. The elocity is a tad bigger, so I imagine it first nice without a trim. (I haven't tried yet, I'll try to check this out too)

Hi, my husband has a Sony PRS-950SC reader daily edition, and bought a neoprene zip case for it at Best Buy.
I tried it on my A7 and it fits very well, they're similar in size. However, there are no pockets or anything.
edit:
I found one at Walmart: a black Griffin neoprene envelope-flap type case for $14.99. It's a snug fit but it works well, good padding and not a lot of bulk. There is no zipper and it *just* fits. Good for carrying inside another bag, purse, etc. but no belt loop or handle for using alone.
tried to post photos but I'm disallowed, sorry.

I got the Crown Case, a neoprene sleeve, and the generic android nook-like hard case from ebay, referenced in this post. I like them all, and the A7 in the hard case fits perfectly in both the Crown Case and the neoprene sleeve, for extra protection. I'm really pleased.
After hunting around for 2 weeks for something that looks good and works as a stand and cover here is what i found
The stand came from the Apple IPad section but works great with the Elocity A7. The cover is a Nook magnetic cover that gives you access to all ports.
Please excuse the messy desk and phone pictures!
I used the 3M sticky pads on the back to hold it to the Nook Case.
Nice work. Looks good! I have a elocity case from case kings on the way. Ill update everyone on that!

I want to start carrying my A7 to work with me everyday, but I hesitate until I get a case. I'd like a case like the one shown for the nook...one that cover the A7, but gives access to the ports and maybe can function as a stand...what is everyone finding, and what seems to work for a cover?
I love mine.
It's reviewed here under Ebay Case review.
Casecrown for A7
I received my crowncase case today. Fits well, is cheap and does the job.
I went to Best Buy with my a7 and tried every case they had - and they had a lot. i wanted a case like some made for the nook where the device is inside the case but you can open the flap on the front to access the screen. No dice. I tried a about 12 different e-reader and tablet cases but none of them worked that well. I needed something to protect my tablet so i went with a $20 red neoprene case made by Rocketfish. It fits perfectly and i do like it, but I still have to take it out of the case to use it. That's the only downside to it.
I have to agree with the assessment of the Casecrown A7 case. I bought mine through Amazon and got it with no issues. I do find it a wee bit tight but am hoping that it loosens up a bit if I keep the A7 in it overnight, etc. It's a case, it protects (mostly), and it's cheap. I think that's about as good an endorsement as we'll get.
I have the case off of ebay that is listed in another thread, and it works great. Access to al ports, and fits well too. For 8 bucks, you can't beat it.
Elocity stated that they have finished the design for a nice leather case for the A7. The last I heard was that it should appear for sale on there site soon. That's the one I'm waiting for.

A7 Case
I have not seen any cases for A7 that allow use while inside case. what I bought was a "GRIFFIN JUMPER" for eReaders. Found at walmart around $14. Its more like a envelop with ample padding top and bottom and fuzzy inside and heavy stiched edges. Its a pretty tight fit but it does completely cover and protect.
I use a Belkin 7" tablet sleeve. Its a tight fit but does the job.

Great please let us know and take a picture if you can. Cause that would be the deciding factor for me. I wont get it if I cant dock it. DS7 + Dock is great for gaming. Trying to take off the case all the time would suck and not be worth it.

I have the OtterBox case but no docking station. I assume that it plugs into the multi-pin bottom port. The case adds some added thickness around the whole S7 plus a soft rubber bumper which a flap covering the port. The flap opens, hinged on the top or screen side and wraps around the under on the bottom. With the standard OEM cord plugged in, the flap extends past the plug by a good 1/4". Want a picture of cord plugged in?
Did a search for the docking station and found this review page: Docking Station. One of the posts state that they have to remove the OtterBox to dock!

Well that really STINKS! I'm thinking that maybe using the back rest plate for the Streak 5 (it comes with the docking kit) will make it work. That back rest plate is curved to allow for a slightly thicker device to fit into the dock.
If it really can't be made to work then the case will have to go. I won't give up my dock - I like it so much I bought 2 of them....
EDIT: I just dug out the Streak 5 back rest plate and looked it over. It is actually curved the opposite way (compared to what I was thinking) to make it work with a THINNER device - not a thicker one.
Sad to say, but this is NOT looking very promising. I may actually have to make a new back rest plate. The big question will be whether the connector in the docking station will plug far enough into the socket with the case on the unit...
Yea if I have to remove it, then no, I dont need the outterbox. I mean I already hate that I cant dock my zune cause I use the hard case on it (official one) What I wish is if docks made extension cords for it.. Imagine use extension on the dock and you could least get features of dock even if it wasnt sitting in it. That or a block you add on top of the dock to fit with cases.
Anyone know a GOOD decent case that the dock would fit with?
is this the rubber case like the DS5 Otterbox? the one that you had to stretch around, but still held well, or the one that is a complete b*tch to get off once it's on?
I ordered this and got it next day. It's a four piece case. There is a rubber "skin" that goes over the hard shell. It's not the easiest thing to get off, no.
Well, I got my OtterBox today. Nice case - pretty much the ultimate in protection.
BUT unfortunately, there's no way to make it fit into the dock with the case on and since it won't just slip easily out of the case, that's a deal breaker for me.
Unless someone here wants to buy it for what I paid for it I'll be sending it back...
Ok so we know that this doesnt work, sucks, but sadly the dock is a vital thing to have on the counter. Easy to keep in view, hook up to the tv, and works wonders for playing emulators on and easy to see. =)
So we need to figure out which case we can use. Was thinking about a simple cover on it. Rubber maybe ok but I need to find a good one that doesnt "sweat" or make a smell after being on it for ages. Then we need one that fits the dock.
Yeah, I just ordered one of the $5 silicon cases of eBay. We'll see how it works out. I'll keep you posted...
Ordered mine, since I'm not having much luck getting a dock at a decent price figured I might as well since the defender is one of the best case options I've seen for the Streak 7
Yeah, if I didn't have and use the dock I'd definitely keep the OtterBox. I ordered a 2-pack of "military grade film" screen protectors and a silicon skin case from eBay. Combined they were a whopping $10.98
I know its not going to be the same level of protection as the OtterBox, but it should be enough to protect it from day to day knocks, bumps, and bruises. I may also get one of those neoprene slip cases for it...

I put a Zagg screen protector on mine.
Got the cheapo skin case the other day. It is just thick enough to keep the Streak from fitting into the docking station.
So I got out a pair of small sharp scissors and enlarged the hole for the bottom connector until it exposed the whole area around the docking connector where it makes contact with the docking station.
That still didn't quite solve the problem. The thickness of the case on the back of the unit where it leans against the clear plexiglass "backstop" moves it forward on the docking station to the point that the connectors don't line up properly.
So the next step was to make a new "backstop" out of thinner plastic. I had an old hotel key card lying around and that worked great. Just the right thickness, and stiffness, yet easy to cut to match the shape of the tabs across the bottom.
Since it is much thinner than the slot in the base I filled in the slot with a little hot glue. That way I can always remove it easily if I choose to since the hot glue doesn't stick that well to hard non-porous surfaces.
I don't want a case that covers the bezel or the back, just something to protect my n10 when it is slung in my backpack or messenger bag.

I picked up this HP case (based on a recommendation in another thread):
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/HP+-+Mini+Laptop+Sleeve/9926416.p?id=1218196187925&skuId=9926416
I picked it up off of Amazon for $10, but the picture over on Amazon is not correct (this picture on BestBuy is correct). It has padding on both sides of the device in the main pocket plus a second zippered pocket for cable, headphones, charger etc. It is the right size and the N10 fits in the case right; but, I am sure there are smaller cases if you don't need the large second pocket across the whole case. I picked this case up to have it available now as I am watching other cases being released. I also have three more different cases on order for different situations. My favorite so far is the Poetic Slimline case, but it is not available until the end of December. Good luck.
This Samsung-made pouch fits damn-near perfect:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0055193HU/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
It fits pretty tight at first, but loosens up over about 10 insertions and removals. It doesn't cover 100% of the tablet though, there's still about ~3mm of the tablet exposed at the open end. To me it's negligible, since it's used to place the tablet into my backpack.
And it's less than 11 bucks.
I didn't want some big hard cover, just a sleeve, but also didn't want to spend any money on it so just made my own last night using half of a full-desk neoprene gaming mousemat and a needle exactly what i was after for simply carrying it around and such. It's not perfect but it was free and does it's job ut great

Its quite thick (~30mm) with the Nexus 10 inside, but I felt the bubbles inside should really help protect the screen when its in my laptop bag.
The zip closes no problem, but it wouldn't take a tablet even a few mm taller(in portrait), width-wise(also in portrait) there is a good 20mm space. The padding is quite thin on the zip and edges, protected, but not as well as the main faces. I feel it is a good buy.

ASUS Versasleeve
Using an ASUS Versasleeve (sold TF700) and it works great. Fit is perfect and case doubles as a stand with two positions (typing and viewing). I prefer using my tablets naked and have been through 5+ cases before deciding on the Versasleeve.

I tried this case from LLC but the N10 was too wide to fit in. I'm hoping for something like this to come out for the N10. The magnetic top closes it nicely and keeps it folded when you use it as a folio style stand. It's also paper thin. If anyone has a line on something like this for the N10 please post:

Can't go too wrong for $10.62 delivered. Goo designs a beautiful product and then tells the user to either risk carrying it around naked or put it into a case that will defeat their design efforts? I believe the cover they promoted, if it had been available, would have have helped them to sell more tablets.

Using an ASUS Versasleeve (sold TF700) and it works great. Fit is perfect and case doubles as a stand with two positions (typing and viewing). I prefer using my tablets naked and have been through 5+ cases before deciding on the Versasleeve.

This Samsung-made pouch fits damn-near perfect:

It fits pretty tight at first, but loosens up over about 10 insertions and removals. It doesn't cover 100% of the tablet though, there's still about ~3mm of the tablet exposed at the open end. To me it's negligible, since it's used to place the tablet into my backpack.
And it's less than 11 bucks.

Thanks for the tip. I've tried it with mine and I almost didn't get it out and then sold it with my Galaxy Tab 10.1. I loved the pouch because it was very slim, minimalistic and the tablet was slightly protected when it was just laying around on the couch or when I put it in my laptop bag.
Unfortunately it's 22€ on Amazon.de (around $25) but I think it's still worth it since I hate it when a case is completely attached to the tablet.

That is a really nice looking sleeve. Quite pricey but could be tempted to pick one up when my nexus 10 arrives
Ordered this one
http://www.ebay.com/itm/170933946177?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
+ pre-ordered the Slimline on Amazon.
Will post review when I get it
P.S. UPS shows tracking that my Nexus 10 will be here today...Woohoo
Got a few pictures of the Galaxy Tab Case and the Asus Versasleeve.
The galaxy case is housing the N10 pretty well at this point, with almost 0 protrusion of the tablet.
Overall, I think I will be using the Versasleeve. I remember people complaining about the plastic smell on the Nexus 7 poetic cases, but holy hell this Asus case is much worse in the magnitude of smell.
Other than the ugly brown, I think it'll work well.

I like the looks of this one, because while I think I'll be using the thing naked most of the time, I know I need a sleeve, plus this one can prop the unit up if I want to watch a movie on an airplane or something.
