nah, the cheapest is ACTUALLY using the box... which I suggest using =P
View attachment 464883

I never even thought about using the box...that's awesome.
I picked up a $2 business card holder from Staples and glued a couple soft plastic pieces that I had in my misc. parts box to it. It holds my NC nice and sturdy now.

Walmart sells a "tablet stand" which folds up and is pretty nice

So that's what the padded insert at the bottom of the box was for... how nifty.

That is word for word the exact thought that crossed my mind when I saw that picture. I even thought the word, "nifty." Creepy. My head. Get out of it.

I'd say a stand is the least of your problems

Yes, agreed. I like how you can fold the box flap at two different angles. No matter whether the "n" logo on the back of the box is face up or down you can set your NC inside the box. I rather like the position with the 'n' logo facing down. So, it's a two way stand!

Rubber band man
Wow, you all make me feel weird, now. Rubber bands, baby, that's the answer to the problem. Well, them and one of those BN NC book covers. On one side, a chain of six, triple looped. On the other side, a 4-chain, double looped. It holds it at the perfect angle for me to watch Burn Notice or anything else I please.
Also, the rubber bands double as artillery launchers!

So now people can really know the genius behind a kickstand on the EVO!
It's evolutionary!

i have a gorillapod for my digital camera that i normally travel with. i found that you can easily shape it into a stand for any angle/orientation, and all the nodes have a rubber surface for gripping that wont scratch your device.

Came acrosst his today, good till Jan 7 2011

didn't think of this, works awesome. thank you. especially since i upgraded to DSLR and this thing has been collecting dust in my junk drawer

I find the plate holders you can find at Walmart or Target work great for Gtab and the NC.
Here's youtube video of one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGMIAPdysKg

I bought the Arkon folding stand from Amazon to keep in my purse to use when I travel, shop or dine out by myself and I love it.
That said, for general use around the house I got a small $4.99 easel stand from Target (they had it out with the picture frames) that works really well, and comes in black, oak and cherry....
Both stands hold my NC with my Oberon cover on it. Very nice...

Duragadget Premium 360 rotating leather case [UK]

Found this interesting case for pre-order (released August 15th). Looks quite attractive and I love the way that it rotates, seems high quality.

oh! that looks interesting I want a case that works well for standing it vertically but with some incline for when I'm reading in bed.

You can buy it right now for less than fifteen quid on eBay

Looks the same as the Moko 360 shown here on Amazon (US). Plenty of pictures of it there.

Thanks, not sure if it will sit the way I want it too from the side vertical pictures. I may need to buy it to see, which then if it doesn't I would have to send it back, ugh!
I may also need to wait for a review cause I bought one that was similar which worked fine in landscape but in portrait the stand was too flimsy to hold it up and it would just collapse

Ask me about my DODOcase

Well, got my DODOcase in the mail today. It won't shield your Nexus 7 from large amounts of physical abuse, but I got it so I can put my tablet down without having to worry about scratching it up. There is indeed a magnet embedded in it to turn the tablet on when you open it, off when you close it.
I would post a picture, but I am not allowed by the forum software.

Maybe an attachment will work?

That seemed like it devolved into a patent argument. I will answer questions there too though.

Question: if you flip the cover all the way back, does the magnet turn off the screen? Thanks.

How does it fell when holding it? As in, with the cover folded back does the thick side feel strange? Do you trust the adhesive? How thin is it when closed? How well does the stand work on a normal desk surface?
Thanks!

Without question. There is no way the tablet will come out without some serious force (not so much it does damage if you do want to remove it fthough).

3/4 of an inch, not quite two tablets on top of each other I think.

I am assuming you mean setting it on its side in land-scape mode? That is the one thing that is a little weird. From what I see on the site, you basically but the elastic band underneath the opposite end. It keeps it up-right, but there is not much room for adjustment. I don't use tablets in that way very often though.

I should clarify that that actually works well for me.

I just got one of these DODOcases and I'm really impressed with it. The adhesive is surprisingly strong, once you have the Nexus 7 in place it does not budge a millimeter. I'm very partial to the low profile that this case offers. The 'smart cover' functionality works just as expected. It's not going to give you an Otterbox level of protection, but it should be enough do the job in preventing damage if you were to accidentially drop it in a normal day-to-day situation.
It's not quite as comfortable to hold with the case as it is without, particularly in landscape mode. That's to be expected since I feel that one of the real strengths of the Nexus 7 was how comfortable it is to hold, and with any case you're likely to give up a little bit of that. It feels like you're holding a small hardback book, and that's not an unpleasant feeling. The adhesive is so strong that I might be more hesitant to remove the Nexus from the case as often as I might with a different case, but that might be a good thing. The only other drawback to the case is that the stand functionality that the case offers is pretty limited, and as a result it doesn't support very good viewing angles for landscape mode viewing on a desk or table top. If they marketed a stand to go along with the case they could probably do some business.
The aesthetic touches do have a nice emotional resonance for me, it really does add a classic 'reading a book" feeling to using the Nexus.
All in all I'd give it a 9/10

Here ya go http://curebit.com/x/QKua1 . I think that will expire in a couple days, FYI.

I don't use facebook lol oh well. going with treegloo

I picked up a Dodo hardcase for my N7 yesterday straight at the HQ. It's pretty awesome all around.
Adhesive is strong and as was said previously, the device doesn't move a mm. That said, the power and volume buttons are awkwardly positioned because they are slightly set back from the edge of the tablet so you need to sort of wedge your finger under (not far) to push them. The landscape stand works pretty well using the elastic band and clips but the angle is not adjustable. Folded back the device feels good in the hand and the magnet doesn't affect the device improperly when in the fully open position behind the tablet.
The look and feel of the case are very high quality and I love that it's made start to finish here in SF. I got a little tour of the factory, which is probably smaller than you imagine given the brand presence and there were some cases being assembled while I was in there. Everyone that I spoke with was super nice and you know this is a company that believes in their product and would stand behind it. It seems that they've come up with a great, innovative repurposing of bookbinding machinery.

Does the adhesive leave any residue on the back?

You prompted me to attempt to remove it for the first time. The answer is no residue whatsoever. However, that adhesive is really really strong. I unclipped the back panel from the screen on accident while pulling it up. No harm done it just pressed back together.

I'm not familiar with that game but I looked at it on the Play store. Not sure how well it would work? Can't see it being a problem though.

Galaxy Tab 2 Cases Fit

Hey,
Just brought a Belkin case from PCWorld designed for the Galaxy Tab 2 10" and its a perfect fit. Holding the Nexus 10 up to the Tab 2 it's easy to see why. They are pretty much identical. Has the 3 fold design too. Now if I could just fit a small magnet under the material it would switch off when closed
Pictures to follow!

Whats the product name of the case you bought im heading to pc world later

Its called the Belkin Tri-Fold Folio with stand.
Luckily the shape of the corner grips means that although it covers part of the power button it doesn't actually touch it.

Thanks for the pics!

Came up at £34.99 but as soon as I said the price was wrong they did it for £29.99 without any questions.

What would you rate it on a scale of 1/10?

Does the back align with the camera as well?

Camera and flash align perfectly.

Thanks, I just ordered one. My N10 comes today due to UPS leaving it at their shipping facility on Friday

Thanks! Needed something to protect my baby until the hardshell keyboard cases come out!

I just ordered a zoogue galaxy tab case. Says it fits both tab 10.1s.
I have a zoogue case for my Xoom and I love it.
It is a bit pricey ($55 shipped) and I would call it more of a couch / indoor case.
I will post pics when I get it. The race is on both N10 and case where ordered tonight!

Only problem with the tab cases is they cover a good portion of the side speakers I hate not having a case on this thing...

Yes I seen that. I hope it does not sound to bad.
I just really like the adjustability of the case. I can go all the way forward or all the way back and any place in between.. Not just 3 notches like many cases similar to this.
I'm very excited and can't wait or sleep for that matter.. Ha

awesome! looks like a nice case. Will stop by a best buy tomorrow to try her out.

Long arm for bed ?

Hi,
did anyone already try this stuff for standing the phone on the bed ?
http://www.tinydeal.com/universal-l...hone-holder-stand-color-assorted-p-77920.html

I can only tell you that clip is great because I used it from one of the car mounts on ebay. But can't comment on how rigid/flexible that neck-stand going to be. Keep in mind, N2 is not that heavy, but once you add a case (like Defender) and/or something like ZL battery or another extended battery, it will add up.

I saw some of these on eBay. Can't see the link since it's blocked at work. But it's a flex tube. I might make something myself and test it out.
I dropped my Note II with Sweet Armor case on my face last night. Not cool.

I think i will order one as soon as possible but with a ZL battery i doubt it will work.

As I was laying in bed last night watching a movie on the little screen (so not to disturb the mrs) I was thinking I need one of these!

I have two of these on my bunk bed/desk, the arms are not as long as they have in the ebay picture (photoshopped obviously), and not very strong, if you have zero lemon on your note 2, you'll have to do a loop, otherwise it will bend a bit. I have usb cable zip tied to them.
You have to curl them at least half a circle, or they wont' stay up, and you'll have to put some rubber under the clip.
Watching movie and video is fine if you sleeping in your bed, but you want be able to surf the internet play game because your arm will get tired after 2 or 3 mins and also because it's so wobbly.

I finally found one on ebay.com for 19 $ with shippin include. It stand really good in special position. On other the note 2 fall down with the arm

Please look at the picture, i don't really do a loop for more stability. Just turn back the support like i did
