Has anyone heard anything on these official Asus accessories?
http://www.netbooknews.com/24460/official-asus-eee-pad-transformer-accessories-on-the-way/
In particular I'm interested in the USB accessory. While I might purchase the dock it would be nice to have the option of whether or not to carry the dock around with me all the time. Having the USB add on which be perfect for those times.

I have seen the screen shots of the optional desktop docking station and the car dock... does anyone have any more info on them and/or where to get accessories in general?
theyre not out yet. when they are theyll be sold at the same site.
Hopefully this hasn't been addressed already...I'm upgrading my pc to Windows 8 and search in tapatalk is lackluster.
I'm looking for a dock for my note. I'm thinking of getting one of the $10 eBay ones, but I have two questions.
1, with either dock will the tab recognize it's docked? I it to automatically launch something when docked so I want to know if it will recognize either type of dock as a dock vs regular charger.
2, will the note fit in either dock with the Samsung book cover? Not a big deal, but if it'll fit in one and not the other it may sway my decision.
Thanks!

i have the same questions! i'd really like to find a dock i can use a case with. i got a cheap ebay one for my s3 that's just a universal micro usb dock, and it was great for a while, but now it stopped working. obviously there's no 'universal' dock since the note has the 30 pin connector...

Dock = Accessories section i would expect more knowledge .

i would assume so too, but i thought it was worth a try here, since someone else already asked the same question.
Does anybody know of any UK stockists for official ASUS accessories for the TF700T as I had the misfortune of buying a crappy USB sync cable due to the one that I got with the device shorting out on me and the replacement one that I got from eBay doesn't work at all.
I've already asked on ASUS UK's official Facebook page and I haven't even had a reply from them.
I would have thought that they would have made the official accessories available at places like HMV and John Lewis, but I wouldn't be too surprised if I can't buy them there.
Aw, crap. I hate it when online-bought stuff doesn't work.
Something liek this:
http://www.amazon.com/Charging-Sync-Cable-TF101-TF201-TF300/dp/B007QUBYDY
Keep in mind that the charging cable hasn't changed from the TF101/201 to the TF700, so whatever you can get your mitts on should work. In theory.
EDIT: stay away from this site as far as actual buying goes, but I laughed:
http://www.asusparts.eu/Asus-90-XB2VOKPW00010Y
Charges over 56 EURO for a charger plus cable. Heh.
http://shop.asus.co.uk/
I bought accessories for my TF101 from them and they were fine.
I now use it on my TF700
so, i'm seeing some posts about the wrong kind of USB-C cable frying devices. three questions.
1 can anyone recommend a good USB-C to A cable for data? my computer doesn't have c, and i want to be able to access adb and root and all that jazz.
2 are there any cables that allow charging safely? i hate proprietary chargers, and the one they provided is way to short. Answered
3 i see everyone ordering from amazon, but I live down the street from best buy. i'd rather just go buy one now. i don't want to go ask an empoyee because they may not know which cables work, so i'm asking here in case anyone has bought one from a big box store.
More than likely the only one you'll find at Best Buy is the Apple branded one, which works just fine but is over priced.
The only other USB C cables I've seen there have been various adapters.
I have a "j5create" brand USB A Host adapter from there that works just fine. Only reason is that I used to have an employee discount, otherwise almost every accesorry at that store is overpriced.

Play it safe and don't spend a lot of money. I recommend this USB A to C cable from Belkin F2CU032BT06, comes in various colors and it is USB-IF certified..
Best Buy has them for $20 but can be bought for about $10 shipped http://www.ebay.com/itm/Belkin-MIXIT...W/322397095951
Haven't heard anything from Essential about the charging dock. Any insight I'm missing?
The PH-1 didn't sell well so the accessories didn't materialize. If there actually is a PH-2 and it does better maybe Essential will release a charging dock that will work with both phones. That's the best we can probably hope for.
According to their reddit AMA, the accessories will be future compatible
I imagine it will roll out with PH2

It's not because the phone didn't sell well, it's because they are being sued about how the accessories communicate with the phone...

Well, not mention of the dock on the website anymore. Too bad, it's the one accessory i would have bought two of!
Anyone found any 3rd party USB-C fast charge stands? I liked my Samsung Quickcharge stand that held up my phone next to my keyboard.
Amazon has a bunch of sketchy looking no name USB stands but I cant tell if they'll be able to fast charge.
