[Q] Xoom portfolio type case for transformer?

I currently have a xoom that I will be returning Friday for a transformer and I was wondering if there's a portfolio type case for the transformer like the xoom has? I have the portfolio case and love it. Its great for playing games and reading in bed.
Here's a link if no one knows what I'm talking about.

Yes, that looks really nice. I ordered one from amazon for $39.99, its out of stock now but I'm willing to wait instead of paying $50 + shipping from the other seller listed currently. Its under more buying options on the middle right.

That one is pretty close, but I was hoping for something with a bigger bottom base.. hopefully a lot more pop up soon.

[Q] Motorola Xoom Backplate

Hey all, I was just wondering is it possible to buy a coloured backplate for my Xoom? I find the standard one quite boring and would like to change it!
Thanks in advance.

You can buy skins not sure about backplates, but their easy enough to paint

What sort of preperations would i need to make to the back plate to paint?

Sand, wetsand, prime sand some more then paint and primer, have a google for exact prep been. A while since i sprayed metal lol good luck

Ill just add, do take your time if you do paint it, or itll turn out horrible and post a pic when your done

Actually if anyone knows how to find a new backplate I would really appreciate it, I bought my Xoom second hand and the backplate was damaged, I would really like to make it look like new!
Thank you !

What kind of damage? Any pics?

Thanks a lot for your answer but I was hoping for something a little bit easier to do I don't have any experience doing it and I don't feel like trying on my beloved Xoom
I would be really grateful for a link to a replacement part.
Many thanks

Ive no idea if you can get replacements, maybe direct from motorola i dont know but if you find anywhere report back would be handy to know

Thanks a lot, I'll have a try

Try cellular nationwide network. I've bought parts for my blackberry and other phones in the past. Was even thinking of this for my Xoom.

Based on the way the edges stick out like that, I would assume it is of the same design quality as the official TF101 sleeve (which was total garbage). Wouldn't want something like that anyway, its uncomfortable to hold and feels extremely cheap. looks like they just combined the tf101 sleeve with the transleeve

i see your point there....but im currently looking for a slim tablet and keyboard case and the transleeve looks the best at the moment.

Yeah...I really want one of these....I've been trying to buy internationally too...I can't find anywhere
Even on ebay..nothing..

Trust me guys, you don't want it... I'm sending mine back.

I got it in black. I find the edges are horrible and it ruins the look of the tablet. If you use it without the dock then the case is too loose.
Overall would have expected something far better from Asus.

Are you sure you got the Asus Transformer Pad TranSleeve DUAL? Not the older model? Dual looks on paper very handy. Thinking about getting it but now not sure if people just mix this up with the older cover or is the new one also crap.

Yep, that's what it said on the Asus site, my invoice and on the packaging.
I just didn't like it. I now have a Poetic case and pouch for dock. The lot fits into the pouch as well so it's still one item. It's a lot more convenient and works better for me.

Well considering that I am living in Finland also , decided not to take a risk and order a potentially sucky case.
Verkkokauppa.com seems to have those after couple of weeks. I ended up ordering another case which can also cover the dock dock which I don't have yet as it seems to be impossible to get in Finland with grey colour. Only champagne available.

Screen Protector + Decals + Dock

I searched Google and the forums but couldn't find the right keywords to find my answer. Does anyone here have the TF700T pad with carbon fiber decals and a screen protector? Do you have the TF700T dock as well? If so, can the dock be attached with decals and a screen protector on, without anything being damaged? I asked someone at BestBuy and they told me no, but they don't know much of anything at BestBuy.

amazon search skinomi carbon fiber for transformer infinity.

That does not answer my question.

Man, I'm not sure why you are having such a hard time getting an answer to your question - I completely understand what you are asking!!!
He's just wanting to know if he is going to have issues with docking the tab if he has both a screen protector *and* a "skin" on the tablet...
Unfortunately, while I do understand the question, I don't know the answer to his question - I would assume it would be fine, but I have never put a "skin" on any of my tablets, so I just don't know...

Suggest that you contact the author of this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29614778&postcount=1

BTW It does answer your question you were just lazy to look for it. If you read the reviews, some people comments about the screen protector + carbon fiber does not properly go in the dock.

Why didn't you just say that to begin with then?!?! Did you ever think that maybe he *did* search and just didn't happen to find the info he was looking for? The internet is a big place! You could have just as easily gave him the answer he was looking for instead of telling him to search! Geez...
