[Q] Clamcase and HP Touchpad - TouchPad Accessories

So anyone know if the clamcase for the iPad 1 will fit the HP Touchpad?
http://clamcase.com/clamcase-ipad-keyboard-case-trooper.html
I've included a link to how it looks like.

In theory yes. But I don't know.

I think the TP has a more pronounced curve to the back and with it's bevelled sides (as opposed to the iPads straight ones) I'm not sure any hard case will hold it, but the only way to find out is try it and see.

Isn't the TP thicker?

Most definitely. Not much, but probably enough to matter in something like that.

I bought a griffin standle (iPad1) to see if it would fit or could be made to fit. The top and bottom halves were a good millimeter apart when the TP was inside and could not be made to meet. The TP is shorter/thinner in height/width as well as deeper so no form fitting hard iPad1 case is going to work.

I think iPad 2 cases will fit it, but not iPad 1? I can't remember. They're very similar in form factor.

No m8, the iPad2 is much thinner.

The TouchPad dimensions are 9.45 x 7.45 x 0.54 in. (240 x 189 x 14 mm) and it weighs 26.10 oz (740 g)
If you get the inside dimensions of the case in question you can tell easily.
Remember, size DOES matter - bigger is ok, smaller is not.

Clamcase with HP Touchpad
Bumping this old thread. Did anyone every find out if the Clamcase for the iPad 1st generation will fit an HP touchpad? I'm looking for a good solid keyboard case w/my HP Touchpad and all the faux leather silicon-based keyboard ones out there suck..
So... WILL THE CLAMCASE (IPAD 1 VERSION) FIT THE HP TOUCHPAD??

NO!

Bump..... has anyone tested this as of yet?

Armband

I have been searching for an armband for this phone, but so far I have found nothing, that is aside from the armbands for the Iphone and N1.
Has anyone found any compatible armband for jogging with this phone?
the generic armbands for iphone are compatible with SGS as well
is great, if you go out jogging often. or if you are biking.
just don't fall on the arm that got your phone if anything happens, protect the phone at all cost
For information, I had an iphone3GS with an armband from Belkin
I went for a quick run yesteray ( not even 21k ) and treied to use it for the Galaxy
Fortunately it can be streched because the galaxy is a little bit wider .. .but that's ok
It's a little bit longer so I was worried about sweat on the headphone plug but i looked OK
I was able to use the phone through the protection screen to look at map when I was lost even it is was not super accurate
I have the same iphone armband from Belkin. It is a squeeze but it fits without risking damage to the phone. I prefer a tight fit because I use the band upside down so that if I stop to change playlists then the phone is orientated in the right way to read the screen text.
cheers guys
I think I'm gonna try out one of these: http://www.xtrememac.com/Products/Sportwrap2/Sportwrap-for-iPhone-3GS---Black/

I hesitated to put it upside down for the same reason ( music and also for the map)
So you didn't have any problem ? I guess it's so tight that it won't move ??
hey guys
Just to confirm, is this the Belkin one you both have? model F8Z334-BLK
(i dont seem to be able to post links..)
Mine is looking like thisone :
http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=492884#
I bought the 3GS one but I thought it was too much of a tight fit, since I live in the Netherlands and I often have to put up with a bit of drizzle when I run, I was a little concerned.
Instead I found this one for the Ipod classic that might just do the trick
can't post the link due to my nooby status at this forum tho, but you can find it at the same belkin site at the ipod section
link? picture? or at least the name and model #?
i think something is missing

This is the only reference I could get
Part # F8Z504tt064
I haven't bought it yet though but from what I saw at the store it was a tad larger than the 3gs one
UPDATE: actually now I have been looking for armbands that may fit the evo, those seem to be a little easier to find.
according to the sizes:
SGS i9000 (our phone) = 122.4 x 64.2 x 9.9 mm
itouch = 110 x 61.8 x x 8.5 mm
iphone4 = 115.2 x 58.6 x 9.3 mm
these armbands fits perfectly
i like this one because is made of Neoprene front and back, and it's a full screen, so good for rainy days mostly waterproof except for torrential rain, but who is crazy enough to go out in such a storm?
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.41116 (double stich)
if you want a fully waterproof 100% get one of these instead
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.42413
they do work, i use it often when i go to the pool, just don't go diving with that in your arm, the sheer force will snap the armband off, no surfing either, just regular swimming is okay.
the next one up is this one
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.34197 (single stich)
but the front is made out of other material, that might crack after a few years of wear and tear, that kind of plastic used in the front will harden after a while.
they have more selections and colours
http://www.dealextreme.com/search.dx/search.armband
but those are the only models i like for our SGS i9000

HTC Evo = 122 x 66 x 13
I just picked one up on ebay for the Evo 4G, and it fits fine
Got the iphone 4 one from dealextreme. Its a bit short for the Galaxy S, but it works.
However, there is one thing that dont work. Who do they use as model for wearing these armbands? I don't exactly have bodybuilder biceps, but so far all straps have been a bit short. I dont think they would be long enough with a year of lifting steel...
The Belkin one for ipod classic was also a tight fit, and have the same problems as the dealextreme. A bit short, a bit small transperent area for the screen and way too short strap. Build quality far better. A Belkin armband molded on the SGS and with a bit longer straps would be great. Even better if there was some sort of secondary attachment in case the velcro failed.
wow you are the first one that thinks those straps are short
most people i've heard talk about those / reviews complais the straps are too long
LOL
no i don't know which side of the story is more realistic.
i was reading some here or if not on the reviews at deal extreme, the guy had to endup cutting the extra slack because it was too long.
i've not purchased mine yet, but i'll be buying one soon
i like the waterproof one, and i also want a regular one for normal use
Have spoken to these guys and their armband specific to Galaxy S will be availbale mid/end Sept.
e-bay uk seller innov8-gb-ltd
Oh nice, thanks for that, will be getting one for sure.

[Q] Screen Protectors

What are the compatible screen protectors available for the HP Touchpad?
Are the dimensions of the screen identical to the iPad 1 or 2?
I've always like phantom skinz. I've had their screen protectors on all my phones and i'm getting my touchpad today and plan on hittin the mall to get it protected by them as well. Easier to do it at a place cause they install it and a has a lifetime warranty
idk if you would have one in your area but you can check out their site

How does phantom skinz compare to a zagg invisible shield? What is the finish like? I dont mind the "orange peel" texture on the backing but i like a smooth, glassy, texture for the screen. IE. i have zagg on the back of my captivate but i have a reallook cover for my screen.
to be honest I like the phantomskinz feel better. I had Zagg on my ipod touch when I had it and in my opinon I feel like phantom skinz has a more smooth feel but thats just me
I have the Zagg on my Capitvate and I also put one on the TouchPad. I think it looks great! I have had it on my Cappy for a year without a mark on it. Great warranty too!
does anyone know whether iPAD screen protectors that are widely available locally free of shipping charges and wait time fit on the HP Touchpad considering they are both 9.7 " ??
The X/Y dimensions of the iPad 1 and 2 are almost identical and the bezel around the glass seems to be of similar thickness too. The problem is that the iPad's are a little more square in the corners and thus an iPad protector applied to the Touchpad might jut out from the corners a bit. Someome wanna pick up some of the dirt cheap (and quite decent) protectors from Monoprice and let us know? It seems I won't be getting my Touchpad for a while or I would do it.
iPad 1st generation: 243 mm X 190mm
iPad 2nd generation: 240mm x 186mm
Touchpad: 240mm x 190mm
I recommend ordering some other stuff since overnight shipping (the cheapest one) is ~$4 and if you add a few wires and such it's still ~$4. (well it's $4 for me where I am at least)

iPad screen protector fits HP TouchPad?
So I picked up a iPad screen protector because it was effectively half a dollar and it was 9.7", I though that will fit the TouchPad...
Now becasue I haven't got my hands on one just now, I wondered if actually fits...
Could someone please confirm this or what?
I have been informed that it "fits" but how well on the corners?
Thanks
If you have a pair of scissors ... sure.

The TouchPad is ever so slightly wider than the original iPad.
How are the corners on this vs a iPad? I do not have either in hand so I have no clue.
How well does it fit without taking scissors to it?

Not really worth it tbh. getting the cut for the camera as well is quite hard. managed to get hold of an ipad £1 screen protector. now after that bought a 3 pack of ebay for hp touchpad for £4.29. for that extra amount well worth it and bought extra in case i managed to mess one up, and one as a backup.
Works great, I did the same, just cut the corners and about 1/4 inch off the bottom and 1/8 off the top and line the camera hole up.
I flat out forgot there is a camara, I dont be using it for sure. Apart from that? How well will it fit? I have oily fingers,And now matter how much I clean my desire screen still seems dirty, Friiends desire does not have that issue due to screen protecter...

Get yourself a metal straight edge and a razor blade or X-acto knife. A round paper punch will work for the camera.

Does anyone know of a stylus like the THINKPAD ONE?

does anyone know of a capacitance stylus like the one found on the ibm thinkpad?
i prefer this one more than using a fat round ball tip one like the ones found at bestbuy and on pogo stylus'.
and before anyone points out the obvious - this stylus is not capacitance; it is wacoms proprietary technology. the ibm thinkpad uses both capacitance and wacom as it's touch driver.
Im also interested in this one
Maybe the oStylus?
I have a big rubber tipped stylus and a ten one spongy tipped stylus, and I'm not happy with either. I would like to try the ostylus. Engadget said the biggest flaw is you have to be pretty accurate with the 'o', but if you drawing or something, it may be better than a sponge.
Engadget Review: engadget.com/2010/10/01/ostylus-capacitive-pen-review/
If anyone has one, I'd love to hear what you thought of it on a tablet.
As for trying to get a more pen like one, the wacom one is not the best, but it may be the best compromise. I suppose the hardest part is to get the amount of capacitance needed within the rubber or close enough to the screen for it to work.
Wacom stylus: engadget.com/2011/04/18/wacom-announces-capacitive-stylus-to-replace-puny-human-fingers/
I hear for the iPad and Android tablets this is the best.
http://adonit.net/product/jot/
Anyone has tried it on a Touchpad? I'm really interested in using one to take notes in class.
I've got the Bestbuy Rocketfish spongy ball stylus. It works a little better than your fingers, but not much. I'd love to find something more precise. The website says it works on all touch screens, so don't see why it would not work on a TP.
i heard you can make a stylus by putting some thermally conductive glue on the end of a stylus, like the glue used as a heatsync gel thing on cpu's and the such. I think you can get the heatsync at radioshack.
I found this one to be decent.

it works well with some of the Android apps.unfortunately there is not much on the TP side.

Belkin Bluetooth Keyboard Folio (F5L090tt) - Will it fit?

I know there are tons of topic about iPad cases that will work for the HP Touchpad, but nothing has ever been said of the Belkin Bluetooth Keyboard Folio for Apple iPad 2 (F5L090tt) -
http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=551573
I know about the dimension thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275443
So my question: Will the HP TouchPad fit into the Belkin Folio - http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Bluetooth-Keyboard-Folio-F5L090tt/dp/B005DKZSTU ?
Just found this one as well for $30 not bad if it works.

I don't think it will work well since the corners of the HP Touchpad are exact. Also, this is for the iPad 2, no the iPad 1.

Ah so it has to be for the iPad1 for a better chance that it will fit?

Correct, see the dimension thread I mentioned above. Since I want to use a folio case where the tablet slips in, it doesn't have to me an exact fit. But, you want to use a hard case, so it needs to be exact.
This Kensington for iPad 1 and 2 fit fine
only except a bit of the top is cut off, I was considering doing a bit of a cut out but I thought better of it.

I should have bought this one. But it would have costed me 50 dollars more.

Touchpad Case with Notepad

I'm looking for a case that has a pen/notepad in it for my touchpad. Admittedly the pen is optional, but the case would be really useful for work. Something along the lines of the Booqpad, but they only seem to produce for the iPad. Anything similar would be nice that the TouchPad fits in to. Anybody run in to something?
If they make a Booqpad for the iPad 1, it may work for the Touchpad as they are pretty close in size.
I had given that a thought. Is it known that original iPad accessories will fit the TouchPad. Obviously it wouldn't be perfect, but the dimensions seem to be close
From Wikipedia:
iPad: 9.56 x 7.47 x 0.528 inches
TouchPad: 9.5 x 7.5 x 0.54 inches
Seems close, but I would love to know if someone has experience.
My wife uses an iPad case for her touch pad and it works quite well. Everything lines p and you should be good to go.

As long as it's not a hard (edit - rigid) case an iPad1 case will fit the TP.
I just ordered a "Levenger Moleskine Digital Folio for iPad." I'll post when it comes.
I use this (link below) folio with my TouchPad, a LiveScribe Pen and LiveScribe journal. To mount the journal (hardbacked) into the folio, just slide the front cover into one of the slats on the left side. This thing is perfect for the TouchPad.
http://www.brookstone.com/IPAD-FOLIO-RED_10349825_2
I have my livescribe sync with my evernote account. Audio and digital paper are then available and searchable, including past journals on my TouchPad.
All - I just received my Levenger Moleskine Digital Folio for iPad and it's great! I highly recommend. Fits the touchpad perfectly and is high quality. Looking forward to using it at work. Doubt the Kristine charger will work with it though as it's thick.
These things can be expensive. I ordered a customer return from the manufacturer on eBay for$25 shipped.
I'll have to look at those two options, but they look like they could be perfect! Thanks for all your help
