I know I've seen a few cases out there that allow access to the keyboard while still on. Would people post links to the ones you know of? I'm guessing that I'm not the only one looking for this, so this would be a helpful thread for lots of people.
There are many of them posted here.
there are threads about cases, but not specifically one with keyboard access. Rather than search through the other threads and look at lots of holsters cases that don't apply, I thought it would be good to centralize. That's why I made another thread. If I'm wrong, I'm sorry but I thought it a valid topic.
Try Boxwave

Boxwave has a clear plastic case and one of those metal monstrosities that was so popular a couple years ago. I also saw some on Ebay but apparently there has been problems with them cracking in the front. They are dirt cheap though. The Boxwave cases are like 30 bucks. Krusell makes the Orbit Flex if you like a leather case. I have had their cases and like them but after dropping my phone when a multi adapt clip split, never went back. Very good warranty though.
Proporta do a flip case with aluminum in the lid to protect the screen. Clove technology also stock the same one. looks good

I'm going to return my Transleeve. It's just not as cool or useful in practice as it seemed in theory.
Can you help me decide on a replacement?
My main goal is to be able to protect and prop up the Prime when I'm at work or traveling, and to be able to take it out of the case easily when I home. At home I just hold it in bed, or on the comfy chair, without the case.
I think the better choices for me given my preference is a case that holds the tablet with clips, rather than have leather or fake-leather covering the bezel. That just makes it thicker, right?
So I think my best choices are the:
1. Moko slim-fit - $12.98
amazon -dot- com/gp/product/B0063Q3G3I/
or the
2. Vipertek premium slim - $7.98
amazon -dot- com/gp/product/B006OZTNIK/
Is this right?
If anyone has experience with either, please reply. Do the clips hold on tight enough?
Any other advice or choices? What about "Premium quality PU leather" (Moko) vs. "100% Premium Litchi Grain Mark Leather" (Vipertek)?
Thanks.

Thanks, Dr. J for posting the links. I'm working on getting my posts up.
I ended up ordering tonight the Poetic version, since it was in stock, and the TF-101 version had good reviews. Free shipping from the seller was nice too.
And, just as I clicked confirm on the case purchase, my Prime buzzed to tell me that my Ice Cream Sandwich order had arrived - 8 minutes early.

which poetic one did you get?
I am having problems picking a case. I ordered some 19.99 Moko case from here http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006BU4TQY/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
Then cancelled it and found some purple one for 12.99 from same company but I didn't like they way the stand was in the back and someone said it didn't stand very well. So now I don't know what to get but a few people I have heard have either gotten Verteek or Poetic.
http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Transfor...3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1326255672&sr=1-3
My tablet will be here tomorrow so I am going to order one here soon just not sure what. I don't know what is better the ones where the tablet clips on or where it slides in and doesn't clip on. I am so confused on what to get. I kind of like this one for 11.99 http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Dual-Vie...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1326216758&sr=1-1 And come Feb they will make that one in purple but I can't wait that long.

I ordered the Poetic "StandBook Stand Leather Case with Angle Adjustable".
It's due early next week.
I think other posters may be right - these cases that look similar on Amazon are actually identical and come from the same Chinese manufacturer.
i really like these angle adjustable cases anyone have any experience with the keyboard dock and these cases? is there a case similar that works well with dock?? I don't have the dock yet but should have it soon and am trying to figure out what case to order thx in advance
I purchased the SGP Ultra Thin polycarbonate case for my ATT GNote, which increases the dimensions of my GNote by a small amount.
I furnished the measurements of my GNote with the SGP case attached to Easecase, and they are custom-building my case with the dimensions that I provided to them.

nice find...
..good to know; thank you for sharing...
how is it
I was hoping you have this case by now and post a review.
I was looking at the E4 and contacted the seller. They are very responsive and willing to customize anyway you wish. But, each change requires another charge.
I am considering this case with a flap over the cards and a ring at the top to be able to carry it on a lanyard. I'm currently using a neck wallet with a pouch large enough to carry my note . I use my neck wallet with company ID.
Anywho, thanks for any input....
Nice find but...
Have to wait for China delivery, not to mention wait for them to "custom make" it.
So, any updates? Thanks.
Might be taking a risk for posting this in the General Forum, but I figured this would be the best place to get eyes on the topic.
As a lot of you may have seen, quality case choices for our Transformer Prime is very limited. Doing a product search, you'll noticed that a lot of the cases available are the same cases that have been re-branded. The ones that are available are cheap leather or fake leather.
In an effort to get some of the bigger players in tablet case manufacturers involved, I'm asking if you guys can please go to the Speck Products website and vote up the idea of them making cases for our prime. I really liked the cases they had for my macbook and iphone that I had.
The link is here: https://speckproducts.uservoice.com...s/2741107-case-for-the-asus-transformer-prime
I believe you are given 10 votes to vote up a suggestion, and you are allowed to place three of those votes on one suggestion. I don't believe you have to register to add a vote. Just click the vote button and choose three votes. I do ask that you leave a comment so that the speck products people know that there is a good amount of interest for these cases. The PixelSkin HD and Folio cases is what I'm wishing they would make for our Tablet. I noticed that they do have cases for the Galaxy Tab series, so I don't think they're too much in bed with apple products.
We can also contact otterbox as well as incase if you guys are interested. Just trying to get more accessories for our Tablets, it is one if not the best Android Tablet out right now
Hoping you guys are interested, I would really like to have more quality choices for cases for the Prime.
I'm meeting with a friend next week to discuss plans of building external battery packs that have usb 3.0 ports capable of charging the transformer prime. We'll be building the pcb's ourselves and the batteries will be 6600/9600mah batteries capable of powering the prime for quite a long time. I don't want to go too much into the details, but they should charge other devices at lightning quick speeds. I'll post the kickstarter link when we finish our prototypes.
Can't say much about cases, but there are people out there that are looking out for the transformer prime.
Just voted and added a comment.

Oh okay, thanks for the tip! Didn't mean to piss off the mods...oh wait...
Well do you have one? What do you think of it? Looks like it adds a good bit of bulk to an already fairly large device, and those big rubber corners look like they'd make getting the device in and out of pockets a royal PITA.

I won't get one, this SG does not have enough "bulk". I like the HC series, which I owned for my Evo 4G, best case ever!
In the absence of the Ballistic HC being produced, I think I will go with the next best thing which is a Trident case. I plan on getting the Trident Kraken when it's released.
BTW, this is about as slim as it gets for a multi-layer case. If this is too bulky for you, you may want to consider a single layer case.

If you are really a fire medic, then maybe you need that much protection. But don't try to blow smoke up anyone's @ss (sorry...not angry, but couldn't resist using the pun ). Honestly, that case is huge. The Seidio Active case has two layers and is much smaller than this one.
As I haven't seen either in person I can't really comment. But I guess perception is relative, they both seem very similar to me. I had a Seidio Rugged/Combo for my Evo 4G, it was ugly and fell apart, I just could never bring myself to buy another Seidio case.
I have the SC series for my Galaxy sII and it is plenty bulky.

The SG series from Ballistic?
Is it bulkier than you expected a 3 layer case to be?
I've been waiting for this as well, I was on the notify list. The question I have is though: How is this different from the White Impact Triple Combo or BoxWave Resolute? (Both of those two are the same identical case btw, just cheaper on ebay)
I'm looking on the Ballistic website and I can't surmise that there's much. Does anyone know differently? or does anyone own both of these (or is planning on owning both of these)?
Good question... Im either getting this or the casemate tough(but it's out of stock atm).

Just bought one myself as well... I think they are shipping from OZ?
Just posted a review with pics of my Ballistic case I received today. I also have the Seidio Active case with kick stand coming Monday. Trying to decide which to keep. I tried to reply to Beauman's question on my review but it would not let me.
what an odd error jda. Either way, I look forward to your reply, and thanks for the review.

Your welcome. I just picked up a Moshi reusable screen guard after confirming it fits under the case. I believe it should work under the Seidio too when it comes Monday. I will see.
