I mentioned in another thread a couple of days ago that Verizon had the Smart Dock, and that it was shipping. Came today, and all I can say is...WOW. I am running Jedi, and the orientation is landscape, NOT portrait as claimed elsewhere...I added no new app to automatically change this, so it is either baked in to the ROM or in Nova. Either way, it is badass. Get one.
Thanks! I'm assuming with a stock rom it'll be portrait, but that's fixable according to at least one video I saw.
Edit: I'm kind of surprised Verizon was the first to get these in an nobody else seems to have them yet. I think people aren't even getting them from Samsung yet.
pix?
lucky ive been waiting since i heard about these a month ago for samsung to get some in stock seem like they never will.
Had to use the company Nexus to take these lol.

Yeah, I got tired of waiting. I heard in my other thread (where I was b!tching about the dock not being available yet) that Verizon had them...it was the day before they shipped the Note 2 to their customers. Lo and behold, the order went through and an hour later it was sent via 2nd day delivery. If you don't mind paying full price ($99), they are still in stock at Verizon (or at least they were this morning when I checked).

Judging by the close up picture it looks like there is indeed a case on the sgn2. From what I remember from the videos it has like a spring loaded injection port. I was going to take 50% off at Samsung but I have a feeling that they're just waiting for those coupons to expire.. i may just have to check Verizon tomorrow

Yes! In fact, you can see in the close up pic that I have an official Samsung hard case on mine. They made the dock really cleverly in this regard. The bottom where the phone actually sits is spring-loaded, so it will accommodate a number of case sizes. I'll try to make a video of that.
Also, my boss has the S3, and I heard people theorizing that it should work in the dock. It doesn't, at least not completely. The display out works, but the USB doesn't.

From what I understand, the dongle is merely a wireless streaming device. The dock charges the phone, allows 3 usb inputs, HDMI, and audio out. Essentially, your Note II turns into a mini desktop computer/media device. I spent the remainder of the day yesterday after it arrived at my office actually doing all of my work on it (emails, web, etc). It worked amazingly well.

It makes a lot of since to have have both apple or both android. You can use your purchased apps on both devices from the same company. But you can't use your ios apps on your android and your android apps on ios. You would have to buy them all over again.
That display is really something to behold. Never seen anything like it before. Would I buy one? Nope. Would I buy an Android tablet? Nope. I have 0 use for both of them at this point.

Give crapple 500+ dollars,
Get higher screen res than is actually needed,
Tablet overheats and shuts down,
Firmware fix will just slow down CPU reducing performance,
Pay crapple hundreds more dollars for apps that aren't actually worth it,

It may be a bit pricy, but I recommend RAM Mounts. Their X-Grip mount held my GNex through a rollover. If the X-Grip II and the X-Grip III hold up half as well as the original, then they are definitely worth the price.

Looks interesting but I gather you need to remove any cases to use the suction mounts. So if you all will have your N7s without cases then I guess this would be fine IMO.

Thanks for posting this! It looks great, going to buy soon.
Here's one I got at Fry's last week. http://www.frys.com/product/7133592 It's only $26.xx on Amazon, so be sure to do a price match to get the price down. It serves my purpose of getting the tablet out of the window and down where I can use its GPS functionality. I live in Illinois, and we have a rather vague law about things in the window that obscure vision-there's no real standard to be met for what constitutes a violation, so it's a discretionary call. This was brought to attention 10 years ago when a widow in a Chicago suburb get a ticket for having rosary beads on her mirror.

Hi,
Your LG nexus is fine. The internal hardware is built to resist water and a few other dust particles. The flickering you experienced was only because the water was in the way. However keep your phone away from fire, oil based lotions and dropping. Enjoy your Nexus.

Yea. Had to remove the bottom brace but it pops right off. If you offset the phone a little you can avoid the volume and power buttons. Just be sure everything is good and tight. Have a case on mine so I didnt use the extra inserts they provide. Gonna slap a NFC sticker on it tomorrow since I decided thats going to be my long term mount.
The work truck I use is very rough on anything mounted. Im not kidding my truck eats anything it dosnt like. This mount once set is rock solid im still impressed.

Is it as simple as that yours is just slightly smaller? (You don't provide dimensions, but a US quarter is approximately one inch in diameter, so it looks like your dimensions are probably about 0.8 x 0.8 inch, versus their 1.5 x 0.8 inch).
Or are you expecting your reader to offer higher throughput and/or lower power consumption than theirs, as well? What can you say about sustained read / write rates, and power consumption?
I'm genuinely curious why I would buy this. If it's just a matter of size, the difference in size is little enough that it seems unimportant, especially given it's double the cost and probably triple the time spent waiting. If it's a matter of significantly greater speed or lower power consumption though, I could see it being worthwhile.
Obviously we developed our solution*interdependently. We believe our design is better. Pretty much for any problem in this world, there are multiple solutions -- like buying smart phones, some people buy iPhones some buy Samsung Galaxy phones and yet others buy Google Nexus phones. We offer a solution to a real problem many people have. People have the freedom to choose whatever solution they like, we just offer them one more option.

Looking forward to it. The design looks sharp and clean. Love the shape. It seems very well thought out for practical usage!

Thanks for the link! I funded the project. Can't wait to try it out. $12 is like buying lunch. No big deal. =)

So no info on size or speed then? :-/

I backed this. Been wanting one of these for a long time.

It is coin-size and supports USB 2.0 standard.
Will this cover the headphone jack on the Nexus 10? Say no and you'll be the first kickstarter I've ever pledged to. :fingers-crossed:

You've publicly stated that you have your final housing design set in stone. How hard is it to provide a size in millimeters?

dimension is 21mmx19mmx7mm with cap on. When plugged in, outside portion is 19mmx14mm. For comparison, a MicroSD card is 15mmx11mm.it is USB 2.0, read/write speed is determined by the card itself.

Thanks a million, that's very helpful!
So to be clear you feel there is no bottleneck from your reader, it will supply the maximum possible speed of any microsd card on the market?

Will it cover the headphone jack at all??
I asked about this on Kickstarter. They said right now, it doesn't block, but it is very close... If the plug for your headphone cord is thick (as all plugs have some variance in design) it might not work.
But he did tell me they're looking at possible work arounds or modifications to help with this...

In the testing, it is no bottleneck from the reader.
I got one of these from DX, works great with my 64gb micro sd card on my nexus 10. Took about 10 days to deliver from China to UK

Can you ask, as a baker, on their project, comments, if it's gonna obstruct the headphone jack? Thanks!
