I ordered one from DealExtreme but be warned that it might take a month before you get it in hands
SKU 13760
MSI BGP100 Bluetooth Gamepad (1*AAA Battery Included)
$25.10
Of course, you could buy the same thing from eBay - for $35

If you get the $12 EMS shipping when ordering from DX you should get it quicker too, it's the free shipping that takes a couple of weeks. I ordered mine yesterday BTW.

Max # of connected Gamepads?
Hello,
What is the max number gamepads that the HD2 can handle at one time?
Also, I have a BT keyboard that works great. Anyone used the gamepad and a BT keyboard together for multiplayer gaming?
I am planning to purchase a gamepad, and possibly more than one... would like to know soon.
Thanks in advance!

There is an app that allows you to use one WM phone to control another and even use it as a joystick:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=634675
My current plan is to use an HP hw6925 as a joystick/keyboard for the HD2 (too bad I didn't find this software before I purchased a BT keyboard).
When I test the possibility of using 2 WM phones as joysticks for the HD2 I'll decide on still getting 1/2 gamepads.

Anyone got their pad yet?

I'm still waiting for mine ...

Thanks... ive seen that app but yet to try it.
What im really after is a competitor to the MSI BGP100... i have one and think it could/should be so much better! Surely there is someone else out there who makes these products?

Ive got one of the MSI pads, Waste of money. 6 buttons with only 4 usuable!
rubbish pad

Be very cautions with deal extreme.
I've ordered mine in the beginning of February because they said the item was in stock. "Item in stock" remained at the item's description until now and even after I tried to contact them since last week with no answer, the item's description changed today to "temporary stock shortage".
I'm going to try to buy it somewhere else because I won't wait so much time at dealextreme.

White OEM Nexus S Cover

Anyone know where I can get one?

I want one too. The new Canadian Nexus S white back cover is different. It's texturized and doesn't leave fingerprints.
Sent from my Nexus S

I want one too! anyone have a link on where to buy one?

White Nexus S !
count me in on the search. Would like to have one too. =)
Have you guys seen the AT&T version of Nexus S?
Its in ALL white (including the side bezel) and the only part that's black is the screen.

Yah but I think the white side bezel makes it look more like a cheap rubber cover. They made the best combo on the european ones, covering only the back and the buttons in white.

I'be emailed Negri Electronics asking but they haven't got back to me yet. I doubt I'm the only one who had asked

Count me in too! =)

Sorry guys, Negri got back to me and they do not sell the white battery cover.

I hope good fellows from China won't have us waiting forever =)

I won't call them fakes, but just non original items, sometime they are not available as OEM just yet, so a good third party, if it fits, it's good enough for me.
Anyway, I buy most of my phone spares and accessories from china, so i know what to look for.
Anyone interested please pm me, I'm going on thursday, I will not entertain anyone without a pm, if they are available I will pm you back.

Any update on White ones WITH NFC?

Stylus

Is there somewhere an oldfashioned, sharp-tiped and accurate stylus available? I use D3 to do quite a lot of sketching (Autodesk Sketchbook) and so forth I am disappointed with styli I bought so forth... that fluffy blob cannot be mistaken for the TIP

Sadly you want the Samsung note, but it doesn't seem to have carrier support.

Good tip!
Maybe I want just S-Pen that comes with it...do you think it would work with Droid3 display?

If the stylus is capacitive, it should work.

I've been drooling over the Note for a couple weeks now. Almost 100% sure that the device contains a digitizer in the screen which means it's not your run of the mill capacitive stylus.

Are you sure? Why do you think so?

I believe the note works on the same principals of the htc flyer which uses a digitizer and then has apps written to specifically use it.

Yeah, I was in that mindset too for a couple of weeks. Kept checking prices, looking at selling my Droid 3, how much that would cover the ETF and was looking at Straight Talk ($45/month). But now, I think I'm going to hold off at least until February/March. By then hopefully the Galaxy Nexus will be cheaper off-contract and I'll get one of them.

So anyone have a capacitative stylus recommendation?

All of the ones that I've seen have the rounded bubble tip which makes for extremely awkward writing.

on the internet, there are plenty of how-to´s on this subject - try them out, maybe you find somethig less awkward...

YAND - Yet Another Nexus Dock

Hey - I wanted to show off my latest 3D printed dock, this time for the nexus 10.
I borrowed the design ideas from what I saw posed on here and tried to build off of it.
I think the one unique thing about it is that it is made of glazed ceramic instead of that usual plastic. It is very study and has some nice heft, while keeping 3D printing costs down.
I designed it to be able to keep the nexus docked while in my folio case, since I will snatch it off the stand before heading out the door. However, this will dock with or without the case. (FYI this is my case: http://www.roocase.com/Slim-Fit-Veg...--Black-rooCASE/cat-p/c1000036/p10518806.html)
It is designed for the standard POGO magnetic cable.
I just wanted to get thoughts on this if anyone would be interested in one or what questions you might have about it.
I finally got together my shapeways site where you can order the dock if you're interested.
Let me know what you think, or feel free to post in the thread, thanks!
http://shpws.me/rY5i
Thanks again to everyone in this forum for the great ideas!

I guess no one, huh?
I am a little late to the dock party...

Your idea is very good but, in general, nexus10 forum is quite dead.

Agree. Unfortunate really...and surprising. I've had 3 of these in my family and none had any issues whatsoever. They are all in use and still running pretty darn good! I've compared to newer tablets but this really is still a great tablet. Not sure why this forum is so dead.

That's probably the reason, no issues = no reason to search for a forum to find fixes.

Very nice dock.
Would you share your 3D-files? STEP, STL?

Amen to this! There are two reasons for a dead forum on XDA: long abandoned device, or no issues to complain about/develop solutions to!

Hey! Sorry for the delay, I've been pretty busy with work.
I finally got around to setting up the storefront through Shapeways, and have a link to the stand you can buy directly from there:
http://shpws.me/rY5i
I only selected options for the ceramic material, since plastics would have sent the price over $100.
Let me know what you guys think and if anyone really wants to be a baller and get it made in plastic, I'll add in those options, so just let me know.
I have a just one other tip: I sanded the plastic housing of the POGO cable down just a bit with some sand paper and put a piece of electrical tape on it so when I wedge it in, it stays put on docking and undocking.
Let me know if you guys have any other questions.
thanks!

Official Sony keyboard

Hello,
I have the Z2 tablet and want to probably buy the official Sony keyboard with the case. But I cannot find it anywhere right now so the question is if anybody has experience with it or if there is a better solution, better keyboard with the case on the market? I searched amazon etc. but still...

It hasn't been released by Sony yet. Just announced. Will probably be available to buy in the next month or so. I want it too.

Bump to see if this is available yet, can't find it anywhere.
Assume we are talking about the bluetooth keyboard.

On the polish sony mobile site, it states coming soon, so I;d imagine a few weeks to a month before being available.

I couldn't wait for the Sony official case, so I recently bought this keyboard case off of eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=111346229890
I am really liking it so far, especially given the low price (1/5 of the asking price for the official Sony case). The quality on the case is quite good, feels like leather but it's pleather. The stand works fine, the keyboard connects without a hitch, and I don't feel too cramped on this mobile keyboard. Another bonus is the auto wake magnet when opening and closing the case. I'll update later with a more in-depth review and pictures after using this some more.

Great, let us know your experience in a week time or so. I was looking at the keyboards today. There are some of them:
on ebay or amazon, I have found like 5 types. But cannot post the url here, the system is blocking it.

i hope they come out with a keyboard like the one on the MS Surface.:laugh:

I bought this keyboard. Its a bargain, good quality.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BKW2410/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I also bought this mouse
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B002KPQ0C0/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Both work perfectly together.

Sony Xperia Bluetooth® Keyboard with Cover Stand BKC10
it does not seem like it is a case for the tablet PLUS a keyboard. It is a case/stand PLUS the keyboard. So if you were to get this, you have to carry your tablet and this keyboard separately. and the keyboard can be detached from the keyboard case.
edit: i guess they have scratched the idea of this early concept that they have made, probably inconvenient and scratches the tablet much, and more universal with any other products with bluetooth:

Hm, I will wait a little longer. I need keyboard and good mouse on holiday which I will go on 17. July. So I hope that in 2-3 weeks there will maybe even the official one...
Btw. what bluetooth mouse would you recommend?

Hi guys I will be a new owner as well in a few days. I was considering this keyboard but one thing is not clear to me.
Is the case a different one whic allows the keyboard to be stored inside when closed?
Or it needs to be stored separately?

theres two option for you IF you can order them from somewhere
BKC10: keyboard with keyboard case- which means you have to carry the keyboard and the tablet separately. This will use it as a stand with any blue tooth device
BKC50: keyboard with tablet/keyboard case- which means you will only carry one keyboard and one tablet in a tablet/keyboard case. This hybrid case is made specially for Z2 tablet.
so if you dont want two separate cases, get the BKC50.

waterproof?
has anyone tested if the keyboard is waterproof?:laugh:
I cant find any info...

Did anyone actually manage to get their hands on one of these yet? I haven't been able to locate any..
