I want a nice sized keyboard to type on,and I don't want a piece of junk either. The only thing that concerns me,is that apparently the web browsing shortcut key does not work on the Nexus due to it using Chrome and not Browser (was this ever fixed,btw?).
Is there any other quality keyboards out there,other than the Apple keyboard?
Almost all major brands have good quality keyboards

One thing that's always kept me going back to logitech has been their kickass return policy, usually no questions asked, and a lot of times your not even required to send in the broken/defective unit. Something to think about.

i thought it was just the opposite from reading reviews by users. looks like almost all BT Keyboards are loathed.
which one do you think is top gun, and not huge...
I recently ordered the Anker wireless bt keyboard from Amazon. 19.99 with free shipping. I love it and it doesn't look or feel cheap. I'm at work now but I'll take pics when I get home.

I've been using the logitech one this whole semester to take notes. No problems at all, works great. This setup replaced my laptop completely.

i've had it since Monday. Hell yes, i'd buy it again. And i've only used it with my Nexus 7.
I did a review here with pics and stuff.
Hope this helps!
Yeah, i probably should have mentioned that i was looking at BT keyboards.
Wanting to use a wired keyboard on the nexus seems so...goofy...to me....

Yeah, its going back... I bought it for my mom cos she's disabled and struggles to hold things in her hands. I'll get another one elsewhere.
You'd think they'd check this out before production. Even on a cheap £15 stand.

Why? Google had nothing to do with it.
I've emailed in to get it returned. The seller is stating that they sent the wrong one, but I've kind of lost my faith in it. Might get a folio case thing instead.
It is funny that they have turned the USB connector the different way up to other phones and tablets I've used. Maybe the manufacturer thought Asus would follow with the general rule and got caught out.
Upside down USB and really picky with chargers... What'll come up next?

PEBKAC. This is an emartbuy dock (you can see plenty on play.com's site). They only appear to carry these for phones. This one looks exactly like the one made for the Samsung Galaxy SIII.
oh man
wow *FacePalm* But thanks for the heads up. I'll know to steer away from this one I am looking in to an alarm clock dock that also streams music and charges the Nexus 7. Not available yet but signed up for info.
This is a Samsung product will probably work with GS3 too. Anyways anyone looking for dock this is what every dock should be.

This dock looks amazing. One question I have is whether the USB/hdmi ports will work without the dock being plugged in to a wall/computer.
Which model of GN2, and how did you get it and the dock for so little?
THanks!

I work for walmart so I get a 25% discount on accessories from verizon, I just got the 16gb version so I saved 25$ because of my discount
I wonder if the HDMI out will work without having to connect it to a power source.

This looks amazing. I had to order one. I wonder if the HDMI out allows you to display the entire screen like the droid bionic would.
I really want to be able to browse the internet and type documents on a tv with a wireless mouse and keyboard.
Does this have a spot for an extra battery to charge in the back there?

I registered my device on Samsung website and they emailed me a code for 50% off on accessaries. The dock is currently on back order. I'll be getting this for sure.
Finally it's arrived this accessory also.

Did you get this already, I didn't think they were out? Man i want one of these bad.
For anyone interested. I've had this for over a week. I must say I am highly impressed with this thing. Smaller than I expected. Great sound and no distortion. I'm no audiophile by any means but this little thing rocks. I've had no issues with it connecting to other devices from Ipad, Kindle FireHD, or Ipod. Only thing is the Ipad wouldn't control the audio volume, had to use the hard keys on the speaker. Very happy with the purchase. With shipping it was $126 off of ebay. Shipping was 18.00 from Japan.
I got one of these for my wife and its great. Shipping from Japan took about a week. Its easy even for her, all she has to do is tap it with the NFC. The sound is loud and clear. This is the best accessory I have seen.

Thanks, price bit steeper than was expecting. Was hoping more around the 39.99 mark, but hey its Sony after all! Might have to carry on my hunt to add bluetooth to my iPod dock or get it once xmas is out the way. Just out of interest can you plug it over aux to a larger hifi system?

Hey guys, I have appreciated the video reviews posted here so I thought I would do one myself. This video review is for the New Trent Bluetooth Keyboard with touch pad. Here is a link to the video review
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tym3BoEhQwc&feature=youtube_gdata_player
And here is a link to the product on Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/New-Trent-Mul...36&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=new+trent+ishuffle
My full written review is there as well. In short, its the best wireless keyboard I have used. Definitely worth the asking price of $55.
This is my first YouTube video, so there is much room for improvement. I plan on continuing to review various android hardware and accessories should you wish to subscribe. Let me know if you have ideas!
Very excellent

No where does it mention N7 in the description. I know it's bluetooth but I'm talking about how well it will hold the N7. Looks like it will work but I'll like to see it confirmed. Been there done that!
Thanks for the links...
How's this? Works just like with the note in there. Functionality wise, same. They probably didn't mention it because it's designed for 10 inch tablets but I think any keyboard smaller than this is too hard to type on

I think its better due to the fact that the stand is built in and the slide out track pad. I am a little biased though because I haven't owned that other one.

I called up cdw as the 'availability' said to call. Rep told me it is on back order and has been for some time. They are anticipating getting some stock the 2nd week of March.
Is there a huge benefit from getting the samsung smart dock as opposed to getting something like the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Case Compatible HDMI Charging Dock which is only about 40 bucks?
Yeah I would like to know also what the benefit of getting the official Samsung dock versus a generic. And does anyone know how future proof this is? like will it work with the Note 3, 4, etc?

The smart dock has 3 USB ports that'll let you turn the Note 2 into a desktop pc.
Yeah but if you get a blue tooth keyboard and mouse you wouldn't really need the extra ports would you?

Also you can use a hard drive or flash drive to view files or movies on there. Also comes with an extra wall charger($40 value). Plus if you dont want to have to buy a bluetooth keyboard and mouse but have many wired keyboards and mice around why not? It'll be cheaper than having to purchase those along with the dock.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
Be careful with some older wired mice though. Some people (including me) have noticed that connecting an old wired mouse turns the screen of the Note 2 off (a good thing) but drops the FPS on the monitor/TV significantly.
I am hoping to get my hands on one of the smart docks soon. I have found some on amazon, but the vendors there have the price so jacked up that I figure I am not going to buy from them. The way I see it is if Samsung can sell for $99, why pay $139-$160 for the exact same item. Doesn't make sense at all. Bestbuy is out of stock, and cdw as well, But the cheapest price I have seen is with cdw. Will keep my fingers crossed that one will make itself available within the next few weeks.
Signed,
*Eagerly waiting* - lol
When I called the very nice lady at CDW said they were getting some in at the end of February. That was a couple of weeks ago. I got one at Amazon for a little over $100 shipped instead.

Yes I spoke with a very nice lady as well. She told me that it should be around the 2nd week of March. I am hoping that to be the case as well. She also told me that I can go ahead and place my order now, and whenever the device is received, then it would be shipped, but I just don't want to lock into anything.
Do you remember the vendor you used when purchasing yours from amazon?
