Anybody find a decent speaker/dock system for the Gtab? Something like this:
http://the-gadgeteer.com/2010/11/15/jensen-jips-250i-ipad-speaker-dock/
We're not likely see anything like that for the g tablet unfortunately: there just isn't a large enough user base for mainstream accessory manufacturers to be interested.
Welcome to life on the fringes.
Funny, i was at Target thinking the same thing. I saw this same item and had hoped I could find some thing similar for the GTab.
I wish the basic dock had audio out. I was thinking about leaving the dock and a set of PC speakers here in my office. Not as elegant, but effective.
Get hdmi speakers.

I said the same thing a while back but found pricier speakers that used hdmi in the end.
Has anybody tried using some portable bluetooth speakers with the Gtab?
These look interesting. I'm not really looking for a booming system. Just want something I can take on vacation to enhance the stock, internal speakers.

look for a set of good quality PC speakers. Sound is great and they are fairly small.
Just ordered one of these:

Let us know how those Altec Lansings work. I'm curious about having a portable speaker system that I can take on trips as well.
Will do. In the meantime, here's the video that convinced me to give it a shot. The price isn't bad at all either - just $25 shipped.

Creative has a portable bluetooth speaker: D100
http://us.store.creative.com/Creative-D100-Portable-Bluetooth-Wireless-Speaker/M/B003N9SR00.htm
I have the Creative D200 and the Creative ZiiSound D5 which are both excellent.
I also use the Belkin stereo bluetooth dongle which works well:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0047T79VS/sr=1-11/qid=1301524506
That bluetooth dongle looks pretty sweet. Any complaints about the range on it?

has anyone tried in-ear headset with the tytn?
i'm looking for omehting like this, and i prefer it would have an adapter for any 3.5 non-BT devices (like my creative zen )
i'd appreciate any help
Well, my OMIZ BT set works quite well for that.
could u supply a link plz? i googled and ebayed it...nothing
You cant have looked very well, one search brought it up!

I use the S9 from Motorola. Somewhat expensive but the sound quality is amazing. Just make sure you put on the correct size ear buds (comes with 3 sizes) to get a good fit.
http://www.motorola.com/motoinfo/product/details.jsp?globalObjectId=177
Seems like this one comes very highly recommended:

or
http://www.sonyericsson.com/spg.jsp...1&template=pp4_1_1&zone=pp&lm=pp4_1&pid=10394
Seems like there is a 40sec pausing issue with 8525's (not the headset) that has been addressed with a patch from some of the smart folks on this website.
hmm, I don't know of any BT stereo in ear set with a detachable 3.5 jack other than the OMIZ.
This one, Motorola S9, have control buttons, call buttons, and that stuff, like the HT820 one?
The Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 works marvellously for me

thanks man
Have the Viewsonic G-Tab and finally got my music library loaded, and I am now looking to stream music from the tablet to my basic stereo receiver/speaker setup - currently the receiver doesn't have any wifi, bluetooth, etc capabilities. Just the old red wire/white wire connections.
Does anyone have a recommended accessory to stream music to it, via wireless, bluetooth or otherwise? I do have an Apple Airport Express, but it doesn't seem like that is a viable option.
Thanks!

it can be easily done ..
If you want to go wired, then just use the headphone output of your gtab to the stereo RCA input on your receiver.
Can be found at any dollar store or pick it up from ebay for $1 shipped

If you want to go wireless, you will need to use a BT adapter, connect it to the above cable (instead of directly using the gtab), then connect the gtab to it using bluetooth.
Here is one that is $20 shipped.
Hope that helps,
Best FM transmitter ever. I have had 2 of them in the last say 5 years. My original I gave to my parents when they got an android phone. But my wife got a new car with no aux port on it, so I picked up another one.

How do you expect the OP to use this at home ?!
Whoops, I just assumed it was for a car stereo.

The Atrix headphones that came with the phone work fine. Including the Microphone, But its not so great quality in sound.
I've purchased an apple headset with a microphone... And I can confirm it does not work.

my iphone headphones work.. also my atrix didnt come with headphones. wtf
ericjackson: All the controls work?
And all AT&T Atrix come without headset... Yes that sucks.
Moreover we have no way to know what headset works with it!

true, no controls work, but i thought the OP was just talking about the mic
and i dont think it works great, some people have complained they cant hear me. but they do that when im talking directly into the handset as well
Get the ibeats By Dr. dre they are a little expensive but worth every penny =)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7X9-hF77gVo
Yes they sound great.
But what we want to know is if the controls work with the Atrix!
well the mic does work but not the controls =(
I just received these today............I like the sound, and they'll be just what I need for 2-3 hour flights.
Also, tested the mic out by calling my wife, and it works great too!
Motorola Behind-the-Neck Bluetooth Stereo Headset Black Bulk (S9-HD) - OEM
All the controls work also!
Do we need the 3.5mm plug type or the headset with the micro usb connector in order to use the controls?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Logitech-98...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1331855755&sr=1-1
Found this on amazon looks pretty good and has good reviews but im not sure it will work as its sound comes from the usb port.
Anyone tried anything similar?
My guess would be that you could use the USB connection to provide power but not sound. It does seem to have an aux input so you could connect the TF headphone jack to that with a mini stereo to mini stereo cord.

Don't know about the z305 but I bought the logitech tablet speaker while it was on sale and it was sufficent but not as loud and bassy as the diamond mini rockers http://www.amazon.com/Diamond-MSP100B-Rockers-Mobile-Speakers/dp/B002JM1V78
The logitech tablet speaker is supposed to clip on like those z305s, but i'm guessing because its designed for the ipad, it doesn't hold as well as it should because the pads on the speaker are not contoured for the transformer.

On the front the pads and the clip is curved, and only the tip of it is coming in contact with the tablet. One final note: with normal laptops the keyboard half is usually heavier than the screen so the whole thing resists tipping even with a speaker clipped on to it, but in the case of the transformer both halves seem to weigh about the same to the touch, so be careful if you have that thing on there and you have it opened to a precarious angle, i've had to catch the thing as it almost tipped over from a slight bump more times than i care for.
i just read on a post about usb hosts that the sound bar z305 doesnt work through usb but there is a 3.5mm jack on it to connect it to the headphone socket.
not sure on sound quality but it gets good reviews.
looks ghetto, just get a jawbone jambox. 10 hours via Bluetooth

can you take some pictures of how it looks to the transformer?
Hi!
I was hoping to get feedback for those if anyone has tried them with the Ultra.
I find the ultra lacking in power and dynamics so...I ordered the e06 and will be here soon but then got thinking maybe the e11 was better or maybe even the dac/amp combo of e07.
Mainly I will be using a TDK IE800 and later a regular size headphone like maybe a Sony MDR-XB700 if I can find one for a good price or maybe I will go with with an AKG ...not sure yet.
Thanks for any comments!

Fiio E18. Takes the DAC out of the phone and into a offboard headphone amp.

I tested it last week at CES and it works well--with all audio tested (Youtube, Rdio, local via Walkman).
I got the E6 and E11 coming to test at home..just amps of course. If that does not make me happy then I will try the E18 but I do like the super compactness of the E6

Roger that. I've got the E06 and it does well. It certainly puts more power and bass. My favorite is the E07k because it also allows me to tone down the treble (if, for instance, I have my Audio Technicas connected--they're very bright), but bring up the bass (the open ATs need a little push).
Do you know if there is anyway to change the headphone out of the Ultra to like line out or something that is not double amplified basically..not sure if I am being clear
