Need a pen for surface pro1 - Microsoft Surface

I recently bought a used Surface Pro1 from eBay for $240 CDN + taxes.
It comes with a backlit type cover which is great.
The whole device looks almost new, and I have no issue using it.
The down side of it is : it does not come with "the" pen.
I am looking for the Original SP1 pen with the attachment point as well as the eraser.
I cannot find it from eBay. The closest one (with attachment point) is from China which will take 30-45 days for shipping. That's a joke.
Anyone has a good lead for me ?
Thank you.

[Q] Samsung Omnia 7 case

Guys do any of you know how to select/buy the leather case showed in this page?( at the bottom of the page-->accessories)
http://www.omnia7.samsungmobile.com/
No, but I had the same question, just look a few threads under yours.
There should be handsets that have roughly the same measurements. Cases for these could be a workaround until something perfect is released. Problem is, I don't know how to efficiently find out which ones would fit. If somebody with a bit of spare time could find out, that would be great.

That case is an optional boxed accessory that networks/resellers can choose to offer their customers - and not something being sold (yet, at least) separately to customers. At least that's what Samsung UK told me when I asked.
i've seen some over at mobilefun.codotuk, including silicone covers and what i think is some sort of hard gel...anti shock cases... and the leather one you speak of.

Hi any updates? I should be recieving my omnia 7 soon and want to get a decent case/screen protector as well.
Cheers
oh well, I ended up ordering that silicon case. I am also going to get some screen protectors/films just in case.
Sorry...sorry sorry... totally forgot lol, Will upload now. Going to go take some pics downstairs in good light.
Long post of Pics for anyone wondering what the Omnia 7 black silicone case looks like on the phone as not many suppliers seem to have pics on the ads yet. *when i bought it anyway* - Yes mine has a screen protector I think it looks fine with the case as you cannot see the edges on the glass much apart from two pics which show the holes around the windows button and the ear piece / sensors.
*4th pic down if you zoom in shows what the screen protector does as already my phones been across a few of the slate tiles in the kitchen*
I think I found the perfect 3rd-party case for the phone The 'Valente Leather Pocket 15'. It's still a little tight (not too tight) but I reckon it will loosen up in a few days as it is genuine leather... so the fit will be great!
Bought it for €15,- @ a retailer called the Phonehouse in the Netherlands.
also available online at: pdashop.nl/product/108532/
images below (note: although the phone doesn't stick out as much as in pic 1 when you push it as far as possible into the case, the corners do stick out just 1mm. so that's only a real concern when you drop it head-down)
Nice,
Found a few for
£3.99 + free p&p
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BLACK-PU-LEAT..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item4aa60357a2
&
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Leather-Track..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item2a0c26fc8a
£1.99 + free p&p. Looks very similar
Just ordered it the first one, so hoping it fits the phone with the silicone, If not, Extra one for when i get the missus one of these phones.... *sigh*
I have already used up 4 of the 6 screen protectors provided and still can't get it to set without any bubbles. Any tips would be welcome.

tablet stand

if you go to your local hardware store and buy 2 feet of baseboard and cut it in half you can make a nice tablet stand. The grooves are perfect to hold it and it takes about 2 nails and some wood glue. I have my gtab in it right now. Cost me about 4 bucks.
Sounds like it would look a bit... cheap. But I guess you could probably finish it up to look decent. Can you post a pic or diagram?

Heres one done by moi that works.
If y'all will check the Accessories Forum, there are a tons of posts on stands ---
ranging everywhere from custom mades like are suggested here to custom-built
commerical stands to book racks to picture/plate stands.
Go to Accessories and check it out!

My wife had one of these around: http://www.platestandsource.com/TwistedBlackStand.php
Works great as an oversized Chumby.

Akron portable folding stand from amazon works great!
I got the Akron portable folding stand from amazon and it works great and even will hold my G Tab in the M1 case as well. Plus it folds up and fits in the Caselogic G Tablet case from pocket that I got from sears for $5.99 thanks to the person who posted about that deal from sears. Too bad it sold out since it was basically a caselogic $19.99 netbook case rebranded for Viewsonic.
Yes, the Arkon is terrific. Folds to fit in zippered pocket of case and holds it landscape or portrait with power cord in or out. Very sturdy too.

Recommended bags for TF700

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.
I found this, http://www.ebay.com/itm/SUGEE-Moder..._Accessories&hash=item4169697d23#ht_963wt_932

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.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using xda app-developers app
Mobile Edge Edge Netbook ScanFast for 13"
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.
Nappolo Cumana
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.

Slip case recommendations?

I'm thinking I'll dump the folio that I've been using for a slipcase.
The reason is I don't really need or want a stand and I'll probably start using the tab on a mount in my truck anyhoo.
I believe it may be just easier to hold onto the tablet then slip it for protection.
I'd like to find something dawg hair proof (like there is such a thing)
Been scouring Amazon plus I looked at the Fry's near us, but searching just wears me out.
Soooo I turn to the illustrious members of this great forum for perhaps a place to start.
Searched the forums and found a few dated threads.
You mean this kind of case http://www.bodyguardz.com/universal-tablet-sleeve-protection-cases-covers-sleeves-shield.html?dir=asc&order=sort_priority ?
if you are looking for one with some protection. The one I have is great (especially if you have the dock as well).
google "built ny hoodie laptop case" and look for the 7-10" one. Tablet fits in it like a glove and it has some protection on the sides and back (unlike a normal neoprene sleeve)... though it is obviously alot thicker than just neoprene
I managed to find mine at Canada Computers for CAD $4.99 on sale (in black.)
sorry cant post links yet..

FYI, that sleeve will not fit with Transformer. If you look at the dimensions of the iPad and Infinity, they are different. That sleeve is for the iPad. Cancel your order.
I bought a HP sleeve before that was on sale for 1$. It fits my iPad but not my Infinity.
This would probably work well if you have the dock.
http://www.amazon.com/CaseCrown-Sue...1490&sr=8-1&keywords=transformer+prime+sleeve
Just got this one in. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006IKHPZO/ref=oh_details_o02_s01_i00 It is padded, semi rigid, and will fold into a stand.
I just got this one (Oops, can't post links yet. Search Amazon for "TSS13505US") and I'm happy with it, especially for $8.99 and free shipping. My Infinity + Dock fit nicely inside and the padding feels quite protective.
I got this HP 10" netbook slip case, someone suggested on here: http://www.amazon.com/HP-WV594AA-10-2-Inch-Sleeve/dp/B003UT7QD2/ref=cm_cmu_pg__header. Works nice. Has a pocket to store cables, chargers, portable stands, and so on. If you go the link, the six pictures on the case on the red desk, are from me. There is a picture of the TF700 in the case, and various stuff in the pocket. Plus, it's only $10
Brenthaven Pro Sleave for Macbook Air. Superb case for Tablet with Dock. I have two one for the TF300 and one for the TF700
It's like it was made for it. Nice thing is, if they have it in stock you can try it at your local Microcenter rather than ordering online without seeing. They have two sizes, the smallest one fits the TF700 and TF300. If you order from Brenthaven's website it comes in multiple colors.

Which stylus and cover for Asus Zenpad Z500KL ?

I just bought (in Italy) the tablet Asus Zenpad 3s 10 LTE (Z500KL) but no genuine accessories seems to be available on the market.
Do you know where I can find the ASUS Z Stylus or any compatible one with same functionality and fit?
Or which characteristics I should look for in a compatible stylus (i.e. capacitive, resistive, inductive etc.)?
I'm also looking for Asus Folio Cover or any other cover with custom shell for Z500KL.
Thanks in advance for help!
Marce
Hi,did you find any compatible stylus?I placed the order for the tablet some days back.Disappointed to see that the Z stylus is no longer available.
I can vouch for this 2-pack of capacitive styl-..styluses-...styli-..sty...stylusseses...
I can vouch for this capacitive stylus design; it comes in a 2pack ($15)
capacitive=passive, universal (like the ****s of conductive rubber that come attached to pens, but like different material and on steroids)
amazon /MEKO-Universal-Precision-Capacitive-Replacement/dp/B00N1BRWLA/
they have a stubby end which is very very responsive but not very accurate for writing (if you write small like i do)
and they have a plastic end with a disk on it, with a piece of metal that has a thin layer of plastic over it, and touches via proximity, you can see exactly what the point is drawing when you're using this end, but it can be a little unresponsive
(i accualy took a nail file to the plastic tip and sanded down so the metal gets closer to my screen, and it started working g r e a t )
ASUS also makes a capacitive stylus with the plastic disk tip. comes without the microphone-like end, and comes in a one-pack tho ($15)
amazon /Transformer-BoxWave-FineTouch-Capacitive-Precise/dp/B00TUPRFP4/
as far as active stylusesesyli go, there are a few zenpad ones on amazon for like $200, which hecking sucks, i'm really sorry. have you checked the compatibility of the ASUS pen? ($50)
amazon /Asus-Active-Stylus-Silver-90NB0000-P00100/dp/B01LYQEREB/
how about the wacom bamboo pen? this is another good generic microsoft-compatible active stylus. ($66)
amazon /Wacom-Windows-Touchscreen-Devices-Surface/dp/B076VQB8DQ/
also the BETOP surface pen is a very good microsoft-compatible active stylus ($40)
amazon /dp/B0716LK55W/
i really hope this helps! it's super hecked that ASUS still sells zenpads but no z stylus. you technically CAN buy a z stylus on amazon, but it's like a dang collectors item ($200+)
amazon /Stylus-ZenPad-Z580CA-Z300C-Z500M/dp/B014D6K38U/
also probably the highest rated active stylus that's in the lowest price range is the zspeed, which is rechargeable (bonus over most others listed here) and has a durable but not scratchy metal tip, assuming you don't drop it on concrete or something ($30)
amazon /Zspeed-Precision-Android-Samsung-Tablets/dp/B01LWJZ2JX/
I really hope that this list helped you decide! there are T O N S of options for you, and i wish there was a way for me to time travel and get you that Z stylus!
xx kendall
This place sells z stylus for a normal $37.00. I just ordered one, let's see how it goes. Link bellow,
