Note stylus

I was wondering, does the note stylus work with other devices as well? All the styli I have are pretty thick, the note stylus looks like it's top is way thinner.
Thanks in advance!

No, its not a stylus its the S-Pen and it won't work with another devices as it uses Wacom digitizer technology.
I tested on the following phones-
SGSII
Samsung Omnia something-or-the-other (not the actual name, of course:laugh
Didn't work.
Maybe it will work with the upcoming Note 10.1 tablet as its based on the same technology.

I see, thank you!

Does this stylus work with any capacitive device? Could you share a link with me please? I can't find the one you are talking about

Would this Pen be a good Galaxy Note 2 companion?

I came across this a few days ago. Its the HM5100 BT S Pen from Samsung. Im really interested in it but since it was only a parting gift for attendees at one of Samsung's events, its limited availability and I see it selling for almost $200 on ebay. I'm wondering...is its worth that much?

It's also a Bluetooth mic and speaker, multipurpose. I can see it being valued at $200. Worth that much is debatable.

117$ shipped

Original Note 2 S-Pen costs 32 euro in the Netherlands, available in white and grey.

This is for 10.1..i have the normal s pen with eraser for note 10.1 which i try to use it on note 2..i found when drawing or write something, its off set a little bit..i even try original S pen 10.1 in its slot..same result..off set..not convinient when writing something..idk if S pen with bluetooth is same off set..it looks like s pen for note 2 is different

I know. I got a lot of info on it and I'm just about pushed to get it but I don't want to be disappointed with the usability at that price.

Oh yeah...

Thanks. I didn't think of that. I don't see any option to calibrate it either. I may have to look into this some more before I pull the trigger.

I've seen on other sites that Samsung will most likely release this pen for purchase as well. The good packaging also leads me to believe this might be true. I like the idea of the bigger pen, but the phone call feature seems kind of pointless. 130 seems a bit high though... Also seems like sort of a burden unless there is a case you can store it in as well, otherwise just another component to bring with you.

Speaking on the topic of pens!
I have a couple all-white, axiotron pens from using it with my ASUS EP121 tablet. I noticed that they work in a similar fashion as the SPen does but one thing that they do that the SPen does not is an erase feature! I can flip around the pen and use the other side to erase what I have drawn but the SPen can't do that... I tried to use the link to find the pens that I bought but the link is not working anymore!
Just a heads up, that there are pens out there that can give you an easy 'erase' feature if you're using the device for a lot of drawing/sketching.

Great! You have one. Really appreciate the insight. Now, I just need to recover from buying this Note2 before I can afford it

Does the pen have a notication led? And does it tell you missed a text message as well as a call

There are videos on it. I didn't see them mention any thing on this type of function so my assumption is no

No. No notification features. I think I might have it already if it included those features.

For that amount of money it's NOT worth it to me.
I'd just get a regular BT headset and go hands free. and use the SPen built into my phone.

Just got one!
I just received mine! I'm currently in Europe, so I got it from Amazon Germany for about 55 Euros, which s still cheaper than the cheapest order possibility in the states.
Anyway, I bought it for my Note 10.1 3G, but since that has been borrowed by the GF, I just paired it with my Note 2. Paired fine, calls seem OK,
However, the S Pen part won't work on my Note 2 when my original S Pen is attached to the phone. Only when I remove my factory S Pen, then the BT S Pen works on the screen.
Anyone else have this problem? If yes, were you able to find a workaround?
I want to be able to use the BT S Pen without having to detach the original one - seems ridiculous that it won't work like this.

Nexus 7 keyboard + neat casing

Found this keyboard/case for the Nexus 7 on eBay if anybody has it could you please detail some pros and cons about it? I'd like to buy one.

That's a generic system. NOT a "Nexus 7" keyboard and case. If you like it, buy it. My neighbor has one (looks identical) for his Coby 7" tablet. Myself, I don't like it. I'd rather use bluetooth.
This is the one he bought. Looks the same to me.

Had one for my first 7" tablet a couple of years ago, cheap nasty keyboard and bulky case though the case gave quite good protection. The keyboard died after a few months.

thanks for the feedback folks!

some people got this case.... theres a thread on it somewhere here....just search for it

I bought one...not all bad..you will need a USB on the go witch is always nice to have anyway. but the dig draw back is it will allow the tablet to slide out the sides...what I did was but a cheap snap on case and super glue to the lid that did the trick for me but I don't use it much

I think there's just the plastic one, I've yet to see a real aluminium one anywhere, unless you know of one?

[Q] What kind of stylus is right for S III mini?

I know very little about hardware so I don't know if I need to buy a special kind of stylus or any will do.
Can someone help? And if you know about a good specific model it would be awesome

I think it wont work, phone needs to have special hardware support to use it. There is also that one called C-pen, that one might work, but in my opinion, its nothing special, and is not effective as S-pen for sure.

Never mind, any stylus will do for standard use. I tested the cheapest one at Sanborn's store a and it worked fine

3D Printed Dock

Has anyone made a 3D Printed dock for the G2 yet? I realized I have access to a 3D Printer, and I was hoping that I might be able to make a dock for my phone, but I didn't want to use a generic model if someone has created a specific one.
I have the Spigen Slim Armor case also if that helps.
Thanks!

Try Sketchup Make, it's a free 3D design program. Very easy to use after watching a few videos on how to use it. I haven't used it for 3d printing but thats nothing Google won't find for you.

I can design a dock if you'll print it! I work for Siemens Solid Edge and have about 15 years of CAD experience.
