Anyone know where I can get a case like the one attached, for the TF300? I found it on Amazon but it is not currently in stock.
Get the one for the prime and punch out two holes. One for the mic and one for the ear phones.
I have exactly that and love it

I got this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007HKIU08/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
It was $12.99 when I bought it. I haven't received it yet so I can't tell you if its good or not. I only payed like $3 for it since I had $10 gift cards on amazon. So, hopefully it is worth that

Do you think it would be possible to post some pictures of what it looks like on your tablet?
this case has the headphone hole in the wrong location so you have to make your own whole. i have this one and had to cut it to create a hole for the headphones. other than that its a solid case. i just got it yesterday.

Quick Review: I really like this case. I have both this one and the Caseen Green Plaid case. I like them both. I prefer this one for work at a desk and static viewing. The caseen case is very superior for use on the move and the hand strap is priceless for working while moving and holding it. Both cases are well made without strong odor and were originally designed for the TF201 (Caseen's has been modified for the TF300 by Caseen)
The TF300 fits very well into the case without having to be forced and the velcro holds it very securely.

There is a microphone under this leather
You can see the hole punched in the Caseen case for the mic here:
This is where the headphone jack is:
See the hole in the caseen case:
Here is the camera on the right and the light sensor on the left. As you can see the light sensor is slightly obfuscated, this is not an issue for me since I don't use it.
Here are the speaker cut out (very slightly off) and the camera cutout (with the cut out for nonexistent flash)

Wonderful! Thanks for the images. Sounds like I might just actually be getting one of these after all.

can the tf201 sleeve work on the tf300t?
Has anyone purchased a smart cover for their Infinity? Like something comparable to an iPad smart cover? I'd prefer something like that over a keyboard dock or sleeve type protection. Curious what's out there. Looks like Asus made some for older models but they are reviewed unfavorably.

I just bought this, and if im not happy with it i will for sure be getting my money back because the description and pictures are all over the place lol. Theres too many things to point out, but its only ten dollars so why not take the risk. Seems pretty cool if it checks out right

There is the official smart cover by Asus called TranSleeve.
But there is a report here somewhere it doesn't fit well and you have to tweak it a little too have it perfectly fit.

I don't think there is a smartcover for infinity, and i am afraid there never will be!
You see, smart cover means that when you "open" it, the screen turns on (iPad, Nexus7), becuase there is a magnet in the chasis of the pad that makes that possible. Haven't tried applying a magnet on infinity, but i don't think there is one...
So, sorry about that. transsleeve maybe looks like smart cover, but it is pretty stupid if you ask me
TranSleeve is what I'm looking for. Just light protection for the screen when I set it down and a stand when in use. Has anyone tried it with the TF700? The reviews are mixed from TF201 users, some love it some don't.
Also, anyone try waiving a magnet around this thing yet? If they eventually came out with one that could trigger the screen like an iPad that would be ideal.

I have the transleeve, and it's a perfect fit. I read somewhere that it made marks on the side of the tablet, but on mine there is small rubber patches on. So I guess they have fixed that problem.

where did you order it from? Are you still enjoying it? Does it have holes for all of the ports?
last question, how is it with and without the dock attached?
Yes please tell a bit about it, maybe take some photos.
I think about buying it but it is nowhere in store so I could look at it.
Thanks

I have TF201 TranSleeve on my TF700 and it fits perfectly. No need to do any tweaks.
TranSleeve is OK, but after little pressure applied it leaves traces on the screen (looks like rubber, although it's just synthetic).

I noticed that the iPad smartcover does that too. There are three horizontal lines on the screen.
So far my favourite cover / screen protection is the dock itself.

I'm thinking the same. But I'd like to get a cover for while at home. I'm going to get real sleeve to carry all of it when I leave the house so I can put it in my backpack without worrying about it getting messed up. I'd love a sleeve with 3DO in it but no one makes those.
I got the Transleeve Dual yesterday and to be honest I don't like it at all. It feels nice in the hand but that is just about the only compliment I can give it.
The case just ruins the elegance of the tablet which I find surprising since it is an Asus product.

Where did you order from? i cant seem to find it
I just received a transleeve cover (the origami one) for the tf201 and it works on my tf700 with no issues.
Fyi, in case that's the kind of cover you'd like for your tablet. I also have a keyboard dock, so I think I'm set on covers

What about buttons layout?
It's only a cover. So it doesn't cover any buttons. Have the same one myself, and it fits perfectly.

Not sure if it's the same case as with Prime but there were a lot of complains that this transleeve causes scratches.
Im curious how well the cover fits. I also have one from my prime and although it appears to fit initially, it doesn't actually lock in and it falls of rather easily. When I look at it from the bottom, I can see the hooks on the cover don't fully catch in the dock slots. Also, the usb cable connector opening isn't centered as it should be in the covers cut out. It's as if the dock connector slots are slightly deeper than they were with the primes. I am curious if this is just my device or in general.

I ordered mine from best buy recently, and I wanted to get this cover, I wonder if it would be worth getting a screen protector as well to help protect against scratches? I just hate screen protectors...never had a good one on any phone.

I had the same problem. Sleeve worked great on my Prime. When the camera module failed and the Prime was replace with the Infinity, I found the cover would not latch securely. Almost dropped the tablet the first time.
Tried several times to attach, but it just slips out of the connector slots

The slots on the TF700 have been redesigned. I'm not sure what the correct term for the bit of the slot that the latching mechanism clicks into, but I'll call it a shelf. On the TF201, the 'shelf' was part of the case, which meant that when attaching it to the dock, or in this case, the cover, the action of attaching would caus abrasion of the outward facing part of the 'shelf'. On the TF700, the 'shelf' is recessed, and made from what seems to be steel, so, although it will also get abraded, the marks will be fewer and less visible.
The recessing of the shelf means that the the 'neck' of the latches being pushed in needs to be slightly longer so that it latches in behind the shelf properly. In the case of the cover, it is not. This could be rectified by grinding off a portion of the latching, to extend the neck a little. A mm or so should be enough. I plan on doing this when I get some time.
I hope this explains it, despite my lack of knowledge of the correct terms for all the bits involved.

UPDATE:
The posts on the transleeve are millimeters from allowing proper attachment. On hinge of the transleeve are some rubbger spacers to hold the hinge away from the tablet. I removed those spacers and that provided just enough additional space for the hinge to latch into place. Hope that helps.
Please post a picture of your mods to help everyone understand what you've done...
There were already other threads on this, so no news here. I've been using it for two months now, but sporadically, it's ok, but I don't love it, the dock or neoprene sleeve is a better cover. Plus it leaves "stains".

?? I have 3 transleeves and all 3 of them fit the TF700 perfectly, no modding required. Sounds like you got unlucky.
My prime's origami case also doesn't fit well on my infinity. I mean it fits, but it is in no way secure. It doesn't latch at all and falls off with the slightest tug. Isn't there an official origami case for the infinity?

I've had mine on my Prime and now Infinity for 6 months and not a mark on it.
Like I said before it's the best case for viewing the pad on my lap. Nothing else has come close.

Hi, so I'm thinking of getting this travel bag for my infinity and i was wondering if any of you guys have try this bag or recommend me another bag that is just like this one. i need help picking out a messenger bag/travel bag. I am not sure if the tablet with keyboard and ps3 controller would fit in this one, any thoughts? here is the link:

I don't have the bag, it looks like a nice one though.
I just wanted to comment on the stylus that comes with the deal.
Never seen one like it.
Pretty neat-o little thing...very different design.
Wonder who makes those?
Something with a little more protection (and style)

I know the prices do not compare, but check this out. It's what I have, but I got it on sale. You can also look at all of their bags that will suit the infinity. See if this works.
not sure if you decided to go with that or not, but I got http://www.amazon.com/Retro-Canvas-...1650340&sr=8-1&keywords=israeli+parachute+bag and it was pretty amazing. It houses both my 15 inch laptop several power cords and my tablet with keyboard, while still being fairly small. I have had it for a while, and it is the second such bag that I have owned, It takes a beating, and is well worth the price. I don't use a sleeve for my tablet, but I either have the keyboard dock or cover I purchased on, and I have had no scratch problems.

Order 2 of these (one for my son for his tablet; mostly for SL101 and adapter but sometimes with the SL101 and TF700 and one for my nephew for his iPad). Unfortunately, the price went up since I got it (doubled).

with carrying a PS3 controller, you may want to go with more a brief case style travel bag. I would be worried about accidently breaking the controller since it'll likely the thickest thing in the page and protruding the most in the pocket.
I don't have recommendation because I use the sleeve. I do have a PS3 controller, but I keep mine in the topperware bin with a Wiimote and classic controller. I also drag around a OnLive universal controller too, but don't have a carrying case/topperware bin for it.
ihave a targus for 9.99 and its unresponsive. the adonit jot pro is ok but a bit un responsive.

Sadly, any capacitive stylus isn't going to be very good for things like writing or drawing. I have a Caseen stylus that I use and do like, but really the only reason I bought it is because it triples as a flashlight and laser pointer.
For the Adonit, get some electrical conductive grease, take the disc off the end, add a tiny bit of grease to the ball, reassemble.
I also have a Caseen vibe and love it. The mesh in the end makes it glide easier than the rubber tipped ones.
I'm using a cheap one I bought on eBay lol. Got it got $0.50 but its been just as responsive as using my finger
