I have bought this case http://www.igadgitz.com/products/fi...ve-for-motorola-xoom-10.1-android-tablet.html
For my Archos 80, and I can recommend it to anyone. It's light , resistant and just about the right size for the 80 G9.
Very nice indeed .... but I much prefer this one I bought: http://www.newmp3technology.com/archos-80-g9-case.htm
It works great in the upright position as well

Looks like a nice case! Just a matter of what you prefer, I was looking for a pouch-like case, this one is amazing!
Cheap case
And if your looking for a cheap one there's some good pouches like this one I bought on ebay for my 250Gb 80 g9. It works great. I would have linked it but since I'm new I can't post any links yet. A quick search should find it though. Mine was named Soft Neoprene Case For 8" Archos 80 G9

I have one in neoprene, completely useless... It does not protect the tablet.
I just ordered a leather case + keyboard; I already have a mini mouse and a usb hub... and paying less than 300 € I have a perfect notebook.
Problems, Asus eeepad transformer?
EDIT
It's way better than a notebook, seen that the battery lasts 10 hours, it is much thinner and in does not have winzoz.

Anyone know of a case that doesn't hold the keyboard? And, hence no magnets? Just want to carry the main device by itself in the smallest possible volume.
Thanks,
Krip
i search for something similar (didn't wanna start a new thread).
i'm looking for a case that can hold the device itself and the keyboard in two different pockets within the same case (can be a totalyl closed case, where you have to pull out the athena like the universal pda case from pielframa, but with two pockets). plus it has to have a very solid belt clip and should be as small as possible.
Skins or case just for the screen
Well im looking for a Skin similar to whats available for Ipods and various other phones out there.
Just want it for the Screen and not the keyboard. So at least the screens protected whilst in my pocket.
Any help would be appreciated as this is the only niggle i have at the moment!
Cheers

If I understand you right tomchap, I'm looking for the same thing...a silicon skin for the main unit (preferably with a hard clear plastic cover for the screen). That would make the Athena slim enough to fit in most of my pockets and stop and serious scratches or damage to the device.
Have been looking too....something like this but in better quality in various colours.
http://img.alibaba.com/photo/11762671/Silicone_Skin_Case_For_Sidekick_3.jpg
Thats the one, Skins type case
Yep thats def what im looking for, like these
http://img.alibaba.com/photo/11609075/Gen_Skin_Case_For_Apple_Ipod_NANO.jpg
A clear see through plastic cover / skin would be ideal.
Ive looked everywhere, even the usually most reliable eBay and theres hardly anything available for the Ameo.
Loads of screen protectors but thats about it.
You would think someone out there would make one?
Rucksack case for Athena without keyboard
Am also looking for a case, but a reasonably weatherproof one that I can attach to my rucksack shoulder strap to hold the Athena when I am outdoors using it for digital mapping. I have the perfect one for my Hermes but am going to test the Athena to try the larger screen.

The DIMENSIONS (Height x Width x Thickness): 178x115x20 mm are right for Ameo that is 133.5x98x16 mm

Both excellent suggestions, thanks very much. I ended up with the Pouch 20 because I like the fit better and it is thinner, therefore easier to carry on my rucksack. Took it out for a test ride yesterday. Both case and Athena digital mapping worked great.

Can you post some pictures ?
case 20 link
If its the case I've got then the 'pouch 20' is an all in one case designed for digital cameras and similar size units. I bought mine online from jessops here in the United Kingdom.
If I am wrong and this is NOT the case 20 talked about then forgive & sorry.
jessops case 20 page can be found here
My pda is NOT a u1000 but similar. Just stumbled on this thread. This pouch 20 is smaller than u1000 so Ive just been told so sorry for the error.Must be a different one.

How did you managed to put the U1000 inside ?
U1000 size, 9.5 x 2.2 x 13.4 cm
Rezo 20 size, 7.5 x 3 x 10.5 cm
BTW, i saw something similar, but since it is 'zipper', it is quite hard to take out/in without scratching the unit.
Found -HERE - a silicone skin case for the HTC Athena (Dopod U1000, HTC X7500, etc) comming soon.....

Nice! Thanks for the post. I can't wait to see if it will be designed to allow you to continue to connect the keyboard to it. An option of sorts. The only negative I can think of is that it'll stick to your pocket when you try to put it in there and take it out. Same thing happens to my iAudio MP3 player with its silicone case. Maybe they'll have a belt clip for it!!!

Here is the one I meant, same as the one in the link above from Johnnykok:
http://www.jessops.com/Products/ProductDetail.aspx?SkuId=22844
I have now found the Lowepro MX 20 case to be the best solution for hooking to a rucksack while riding (see http://www.parkcameras.com/ProductD...roogle/productID/827/groupID/5/categoryID/20) and available in many shops on Tottenham Court Rd. I have added some waterproofing but not yet tested it in very wet weather since the weather has been pretty good these past weeks. I used the Pouch 20 in serious wet weather without waterproofing and found that it did not stay dry inside. I have decided that in very wet weather I will transfer the Athena to a small WXtex waterproof bag I found in an outdoor store.
So did anyone locate some sort of casing just for the device.Out of curiousity
Case For Just Your Unit
Although i am and have made a change for a new mobile(I still have 1 more X7501 that im keeping)I stumbled across this that i thought i would share with the community:
http://www.boxwave.com/products/dlcase/htc-x7500-designio-leather-case_2722.htm
Carry just your unit and not the keyboard whilst you are out doing business!
Hope this helps those whom are looking for a case to take with them when they are doing business.
Regards
So I've decided to make one thread for All HD2 Accessories.
The idea is for users to list or suggest some of the best accessories you've owned and used during your time with your HTC and give a brief recommendation.
Car chargers, cases, screen protectors etc.
If an existing thread of this nature already exists - I apologize, my intention was not to create another needless one.
Please just simply re-direct me to it by the link of the preexisting one and close off this one - No hard feelings...
I think it's a better idea for a thread than the stickied film protector that sucks.
Anyway, my recommendation is the Otterbox Defender Case

Same. I'm pretty tall so the size doesn't bother me at all. If I were tiny then I could imagine the extra weight might be annoying, but I enjoy having the ability to clip it quickly to the holster. I'm also now really fast at removing it from the case in order to get to the microSD card to load up android builds directly to the card.
PS3 Controller, better and cheaper then most bluetooth pads.
In car holder, I use a cheap chinese one works fine.
THB bury bluetooth connection / HUD, good in car, read your messages/call lists/make calls/contacts ect.
here is my suggestion...
I got the first Hard Gel-case that was available and did not quite like it because it was not really perfect fit. Than at one occasion I've read I think here at XDA a post that was pointing towards this case (pics attached along with ebay item number) that was really good good fit for tmobile US HD2s ... and - ordered, and have it since... the best fit so far and serves me well.
ebay item number is: 330485183615
Hi,
Would you kind forumers give me some good suggestions on possible physical keyboard accessories that fits the HTC HD2 on an Android ROM?
I have been looking at a few and am still looking. I bought an old Freedom Pro Keyboard and found it a bit unstable to use (keys not registering certain presses). So please recommend what you are using if possible. Thank you!
My phone never leaves it's £3.99 Wallet home!
I'm already on my second one (I decided to replace it after six months as it was getting tatty, and at this price I can't complain). What's great is that it serves my need as a wallet, keeps all my valuables together, adds little bulk to the device (in the sense that it's also your wallet ), and my phone looks as good as new despite my occasional clumsy droppage. Definitely a must-have for me.
While on eBay I just saw a smarter one for £9,99 which I'm a little tempted by...
My DREAM accessory would be a genuine, larger-capacity, same physical-size battery, ah but we can only dream...
So after watching a couple reviews, I'm liking the otterbox defender case and I'm giving it some consideration... Just thought I drop a line, see if any feedback is given on this (positive or negative)
1. mugen 2600 mAh extended battery (must have...GET ONE !!!)
2. skull candy ear buds nice and loud for 13 bucks on sale!
3. 2 16gb's + 1 8gb for music
4. zagg screen protector
5. when not using the extended battery i use a thin rubberized 1 piece hard case mine is actually navy blue not black
Otterbox Defender..a must have for my work. very tough but makes the screen a little less sensitive, a small price to pay for good protection, i wish it was a little more dust and waterproof though.
HTC Oem flip case simple, cheap and works well
Desk Genie Non-Slip Charging Desk Stand..brilliant love this stand, again cheap but works well, bought this for my TP2 and still using it
Vikuiti (TM) DQC-160 best screen protector ive ever used, easy to install, would buy another if ever i needed to but 6 months and so far i dont!
Andida "1600" battery, so cheap i dont care if its 1200, good enough for a spare.
Motorola HT820 Bluetooth headphones...Old school but work flawlessly
IO Play bluetooth music streaming car kit...got mine for £60, pairs first time evertime, good voice quality and full A2DP, which is more than ive heard said for more expensive alternatives of the feathery kind!
HTC Car holder i got free with my TP2..tight but just fits
If i didnt really need to use the Defender everyday, I would have bought and extended battery, probably the offical one, but hey...
I'm looking for a soft rubber case like the case I have for my i900 Omnia.
I've just ordered an HD2 and I find this sort of case is ideal for satnav because I change cars a lot and I can plug the charger in and the phone lies flat on top of the dash without sliding off.
I haven't got the time or space to carry a proper cradle, but this works just fine.
It's made of soft, stretchy rubber a bit like the inner tube out of a tyre, with some texturing on the back which helps it grip - does anyone know what I am trying to describe?
my pocket.
^ What he said + Vikuiti (TM) screen protector.
I know I'm going to regret asking this but who or what is "my pocket" apart from the bleeding obvious?
Music Bluetooth headset
My recommendation is Bluetooth music headset ''MW600'' from Sony ericsson.
Its also been called or well it is a officially accesiore for the Sony ericsson Aino.
Cant remember and find the exact typenumber that the MW600 have for the Aino, so its has 2 type numbers.

You can use the PS3 controller with HD2? Is it possible to use another bluetooth/wireless controllers on this device?
I'd be glad if anyone could tell me.

1. OtterBox Defender (built in screen protector removed as below far better) £30
2. Vikuiti™ screen protector ADQC27 (Same as DQC160, but now anti-reflective too) £10
3. A couple of cheap spare batteries (never had problems with them myself) £3ea
4. Mains USB/Battery charger (replaces the HTC one and adds spare battery charging functionality) £3
5. Retractable Mini-USB cable (great for travelling when combined with above) £2
6. Komputerbay MicroSDHC 16GB Class 6 £30
7. PS3 Controller to work with FPSECE (PS1 Emulator) via CobaltContoller £30
£115 of accessories... blimey... it adds up!
If anyone's looking for a good case...I have an extra JavoEdge case for sale on eBay! (one of my NC's returned, so no use for the case)

I like it is is almost perfect for my needs, I wish it was just a little bit bigger so it wouls hols one of the mini legal pads. It does hold the nook very nicely. Much better IMHO than most of the B&N cases I have seen.
I got tired of standing my tablet between my monitor and a stapler so I went looking for a stand. I just got the Arkon Portable Fold-Up Stand from amazon and it works great. It can be used in either portrait or landscape and it wasn't too expensive. It looks great on my work desk!

Thats a great idea! I have the very same issue while trying to play my emulators. Love this! Thanks for sharing!
Stand for A7
Hi All,
I've looked at a number of stands for my A7, but ended up using an old camera tripod I had, and it turned out be be great idea!
the Joby GorillaPod is a flexible mini tripod for cameras, but I just molded mine to look like a stand (bent the front 2 legs upward to hold in place), and I couldn't be happier. The best thing is you can adjust the back leg to fit whatever viewing angle suits your needs.
This is a link to Amazon for around $13.99, basically same price as a regular stand (that isn't flexible), but you can probably find one for a little cheaper even and they come in all sorts of colors.
http://www.amazon.com/Joby-GP1-D1EN-Gorillapod-Flexible-Tripod/dp/B000EVSLRO/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1298492773&sr=8-2
Hope you find this helpful!
I also ordered this on your advice and must say this was a excellent find.
Thanks for the info. I love mine it works perfect and for a great price.
You are welcomed!

Hi all... I know this is yet another case thread, but I'd appreciate some Uk specific advice please....
I have a very cheap case off Amazon for my Nexus 7. It is OK I suppose, slightly too big perhaps, but I don't think it will last long and also the sensor lock/unlock does not work. I have pointed this out to the seller and been sent a new, different case but this is also too large for the Nexus 7 and the lock/unlock still does not work.
If any owners in the UK have a case that fits well and locks as it should then please let me know. I don't want to spend much but equally I want a case that works.
Thanks
I've been using the G-Hub case from amazon uk (product code: B008KPVSQC). It's just a cheap pleather case, but the Nexus 7 fits inside snugly and the lock/sleep function works well.
What sort of price range you lookin' for?
I'm looking around the £10-£20 mark, however I just saw the G-HUB for £4.99 incl. delivery (admittedly it is the black/white polka dot version). The main issue is the fit.... the N7 moves around in my current cases, and also the sensor lock/unlock. So fingers crossed this case will do the job.
Thanks
