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.

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

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?
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.

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.
Hi,
i was looking to get a messenger style bag that would fit and protect my TF700 but couldn't find much information so i thought it would be a good idea to list the items that do fit it.
Personnaly after some online search i decided on STM's iPad Scout 2.
The bag is really thought for an iPad so the TF700 doesn't fit perfectly (see attached pictures), you might want to get the XS Scout 2 (for 11" laptops) if that's an issue for you, but i wanted a vertical bag (the XS holds the unit horizontally).
But i'm happy with it, the device fits with or without the dock and the bag is the perfect size for me (holds in addition to TF700 a kindle, small notepad, keys, pens and a few small items).
FYI the bag was 46.94 GBP with european shipping included, or $44 on amazon.com.
I own this bag Mobile Edge vertical messenger bag
I like it a lot. There's room for my 13" laptop and my TF700, plus a bunch of other stuff.
Another beautiful three - http://www.gojistyle.com/sleeves/102_inch.aspx and http://www.mobileedge.com/slimline-ultrabook-tablet-folding-tote.html and http://www.bonecollection.com/en/products/detail/ipag/
Yes, not exactly for TF700 but seems to fit the tablet + dock
I use, and really like the Case Crown Messenger Bag. 4.4 stars out of 53 reviews on Amazon. $32.19 with free prime shipping, a little expensive IMO but it fits very well (dock on/off or dock stowed separately and there's compartments to keep the tab and dock apart so nothing is getting scratched), has a few pockets for accessories and is well made. I've used a few messenger style bags and this is by far the best one I've found.

Hmm, new ebay seller with 0 feedback and this bag is $32.99 and coming from Hong Kong? The bag itself looks decent, but not worth it for the way slow shipping and risk...
I've been using this one by Targus. It's made for the iPad, but it fits my tablet with keyboard perfectly, and is a great little gadget bag.
I use a generic 10.1 inch tablet, inland, microfiber sleeve I got at fry's for 2 bucks on one of their sales. Anything can work really.

I'm pretty happy with this one. I had a laptop bag, but it heavy and bulky. In addition to being trim (thinner than it looks in the pictures, actually), this one has the most comfortable gel-filled strap ever.

I second the Targus Citygear bag. The infinity fits perfectly, and you have room for a legal pad, charger, pens, phone, etc. It's not so large that you may as well have a backpack or a full-size messenger bag, but it has ample space for everything I need, and has padding for protection. I picked mine up on amazon (prime eligible!) for $23.43.
Am using a small suitable for 7-10.2inc netbooks/tablets, its Case Logic VNA210 Black... (can't provide link becoz of insufficient posts, but Google is your friend )
I paid around 24 Dollar (+/- 20 Euro) and it easily can handle more then one tablet, or combination, tablet or tablet with dock or other stuff like external harddrive (in my case it holds a WD My Passport 500GB in the small front space) and there plenty of space left for other small stuff like extra SD cards etc....
kind regards,

:good: This one as well. Been using it for about 1.5 years now (got it with my XOOM in March, 2011). Perfect fit, travels well, plenty of pockets for phone, keys, etc.
It's my daily driver.

Thanks for posting this. Have you or anyone else looked at the STM Stash? http://www.stmbags.com.au/catalog/laptop-bags/stash-iPad/
I like the STM style and functionality but the closure on this Scout looks strained by the TF700 and I'm worried the velcro won't hold after a while.
Hi All,
Am thinking about getting the versa sleeve. Want a cover that allows quick access, can be used with dock or not, and can be used as a stand for multiple viewing angles for the tablet when it is solo. The versa sleeve is the only one I can see that can be shipped to Australia (Moko does a case I'm interested in, but Amazon dont ship to Oz).
Does anyone have one of the versa sleeves for the Infinity? Any comments on satisfaction in, and utility of, the product would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Mike.
No idea if any good (still waiting for my first ever tablet to arrive on Monday ) but noticed it on B&H when I ordered the Infinity from them (can't post a link but google ASUS 90-XB2UOKSL000B0 bhphotovideo should find it). Has some reviews and all are positive.
My tablet took 2 days to get to Botany ... but hasn't moved for 24 hours

I actually like the Versa Sleeve. It's a little pricey, but I found that it fits either the tablet or the tablet + dock (snugly). It has a stylus loop too. It has 2 basic viewing angles, and I like the texture of the case, nice and grippy.
versasleeve can be found at samsclub for <$6. not sure if they ship to australia. great sleeve. should fit tf700t + dock since it is advertised for the tf300t alone or with dock. primary reason why i bought this case is because i like using my tablets naked (slim profile is too nice to cover up) and because it functions very well as a stand.
Have had the Versa sleeve for a couple weeks now. If you're one to travel with the dock, this is a real plus because it's such a snug fit. Pricey but you can feel that the quality is there in the material. Even for those times you go with only the tablet, the ability to have 2 different angles is handy, and surprisingly, the "stand" positions are solid.
All in all, I'm happy with this because I don't have to bother with a case.
I live in Melbourne (Australia) and managed to buy the Asus versasleeve from B&H Photo and I have to say, it's a great case for the transformer infinity. It fits snugly with both the tablet and dock inside (without being very bulky). Also fits well with just the tablet, although I have purchased a caseen cover for when I want to use the tablet without the dock.
Build quality and texture of the versasleeve is quite nice - doesn't look cheap like a lot of the other covers I am seeing on amazon. Unfortunately shipping is a bit of a killer for such a small item, but at least it ships to Australia! Am personally very happy with my versasleeve purchase.
Ok so we've all searched for a replacement for the HTC keyboard folio with little success (especially with its battery issues). End your search.
After extensive research and trial and error, I have found a nearly equivalent substitution!
The model is the Belkin Form Fit Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 Keyboard case.
I picked one up on eBay for $15 but YMMV with respect to price.
Fitment - With just a bare Nexus, the case is too big and does not hold the tablet. But...with a simple acrylic case around the tablet, everything functions as normal! The tablet snaps in place and stays secure in the case and fits PERFECTLY. The only issue is that (obviously) you can't use the camera or buttons while in the case. So what. I'll probably dremel a hole for the buttons though. Only other issue is that you need to use the included elastic strap to keep the case closed - otherwise it wants to sit slightly open. No big deal.
Performance - Keys are firm, spring back as expected, and are extremely well placed for a tablet keyboard, with several function keys at the top. I can't vouch for battery life because it isn't dead yet, but I'll report back when it dies.
Build quality - excellent. Belkin makes great products and this is no exception. The outside is some type of smooth, grippy stitched vinyl and plastic, and looks subtle but well-designed.
It charges in 2 hours with a micro USB charger, so you only need one cable. Bluetooth is reliable and quick.
Overall, this thing rocks!!! Go get you one!
glad you like it. I'm using a Brydge 9.7" keyboard. It turns the N9 into a really versatile device and has a backlit keyboard. It is a little big for the N9, but only about 7mm each side.
