Hey guys, thought I'd share the accessories I've gathered up so far for the note...mostly to point out that I recommend them all. The iGo Stowaway BT keyboard is awesome, works wonders for me...coding on the fly, taking notes in class, etc. I've got a SanDisk 64gb sdxc card in there: works great (once you format to fat32). Got a Mountek car mount, MT5000-c: the one that slips in to the CD player...love that thing, basically have a TV in the car, the wife is spoiled when we're driving around! The spare batteries are by Hyperion, seem to hold their charge pretty well...no complaints yet, can't go wrong with 3 batteries in rotation (the other hyperion is in the GNote)...The case is a cheap Otterbox type of case minus the screen protection (i forget who makes them): so far it's awesome and will work until I get a defender case or something, it has a kick-stand too (flimsy, but works)...my only complaint about the case is that the MHL doesn't fit and I have to remove the case when I want to connect it. And finally, the MHL cable by Skivia, also works great (no issues with audio). Just waiting on my USB OTG cable to arrive from China...I'll be using that mainly to connect a mouse. Post your pics!
Update: the case is made by Reiko (Hybrid Case)

Don’t know if this is where this goes or not but it’s about accessories..
So I have the Sprint car dock and it works great (even if it only launches the dock half the time). I went out and bought the Otterbox commuter case and I love it. The good news is YES the case does if in the dock…. The bad news is the flap that covers the UBS port does not. So I had two choices, one cut the rubber that protects the USB port off and risk all kinds of pocket lint and dust getting in there or modify the dock… SO
I modified the dock… all I did was take a Dremel (best tool ever) and cut away the plastic edge. Now you have to be careful because it would be easy to “slip” and cut into your USB port. Also the LED power light is right there so watch that too!!!
Here is what 10 minutes of work look like!!

I will sand it a little but I think it turned out great!!! Now I can use my case and dock!!! I would take a picture of the phone in the dock but the phone is all I have to take pictures at the moment lol.
Let me know what you think??
Well done, problem solved. Looks fine to me. And yes, dremels are awesome ! Dremels, 5 min epoxy, and duct tape. I can do anything!
indeed nice! I bought mine today and was thinking.. just a little more room and I could totally Dock my otter box! but, I thought I would just cut off the little flap to the Charge port. instead, You've inspired me!
Thanks guys. I did not want to hurt the case as I get way more use out of it then the dock. But with the usb cover out it actually covers up the cut on the dock so you don't see it anyways. Looks great!

You made the right decision.
When you have to mod something , you want to avoid reducing functionality if you can. Cutting the dock doesn't change its functionality (even if it didn't fit after the cutout) , while removing the USB cover removes a feature.

I took the hit and bought it off Amazon. Retail prices, but it does have a really nice fit and finish.

That's not an ideal place to mount a tablet, I know. I'm playing around with different locations. The one good thing about dashboard/windshield mounting is that you can then use the forward camera. Bad obviously is that it is obstructive and distracting, and it will get direct sunlight at times.
Still, a good option to have in the console along with the smaller CD tray mount for the iPhone. Options, man. Options.
Very nice. Got other pics of the setup and car dock from different angle?

Any issues with cops? They sure like to ticket you for obstruction of view.

Got this one, its almost perfect, just a few things i dont like though
- it has its own charging connector,
it makes charging in your car a little troublesome because you have to take off gtab's case to attach it to the dock
- it depends on the car, but if you dont place it low enough could be blocking your view when driving,
im now ordering brodit's proclip, it mounts to ac vents, (but its different for each car, so youll have to order the dock based on the car)
i hope its a better alternative..
I got mine mounted right above the headunit it works great and no obstruction

This is the way I went, and I am very happy with it, but it may depend on the placement of your car vents. The top of my tab (including the camera) is slightly above the level of the dash, so taking video etc would be possible with my setup. Still have to remove the case, but I don't have a problem with that.

I got one for 6 $ from China on Ebay. Works pretty decent, the only drawback is the waiting time of 4 weeks...
OK well I just ordered my phone today and I'm wondering guys what are the best cases and battery backup cases that I can use with it. Oh and has anyone found or no where to find fine tiped stylus anywhere

Well it all depends on your needs and taste.
I dislike big rounded styluses so I ordered a Samsung C Pen which works great for me!.
Cases, well I got a few but nothing so far that I call amazing. As for Battery back ups, there is one that is 4500mAh and outputs 1A which I saw a nice review for it on youtube and feedback seems to be a good choice.
Like this one

Sony's CP12 Power Cover is a 3000mAh battery case with flip cover & stand and comes with such a stylus. It comes with a magnetic charge cable to charge the battery & phone. It's mains charging process charges the phone's battery before it tops up the case's battery, when the case is charging the phone's battery, when the phone hits 100%, the case stops supplying power.

The stylus is extendable, BTW. The case does add a little more width to this already large phone, but it still fits in the front pockets of my slacks.
Yeah note for 139 I don't think I can do that for a case that seems a bit to steep for me I saw a couple on amazon for about 30 buck but I'll check out the Samsung c pen out

Since no one else seems to know anything about this box, I figure I'll give it a try. Can't test the Qi charging yet but I'll try the rest.
It's on sale right now at Amazon. I got it for under $30 shipped with prime using the 30% off coupon in the listing.

Crap. Selected the wrong model.
I buy it on Amazon but the G3 doesn't charge, it always say "put the phone at the center of the charger" or something like that. Amazon refund me. Too bad because it was cool
I wonder if it would just be better to cut your own charger into the model without one?

They have it in a few other colours so iv ordered a few more tonight so i can leave the stand in different parts of my home

I use a Flygrip. It works as a horizontal and vertical stand and keeps me from dropping the phone. I having been using one since my Note 2 and always the first accessory I buy.
