I've found myself using a separate tablet and not using the station at all anymore. Anyone looking for one? Comes with a newly-applied AT&T screen protector and a brand new (never even opened) Incipio case.
Also have the keyboard dock available.
I'll throw in a second Incipio cover for the station I took a Dremel to and made work with the keyboard dock if you want both the station and the dock (otherwise it's useless).

That's not a bad idea. My only concern is shipping it to Russia from here. It's a gamble as to whether or not it makes it, but I'm willing to give it a shot so long as I'm off the hook once it ships out of here.
Since this idea's been thrown out there, I'll go ahead and say I'm not looking for much for the station. $50 plus shipping costs. I'd make sure Quarx is okay with it before going down that road, though.

PLEASE TELL ME WHERE YOU BOUGHT YOURS FROM. I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR HOURS FOR ONE, AND I REALLY NEED ONE ASAP. I just bought one from eBay yesterday, and need the keyboard, and Foilio cases for both the tablet and phone.
Sorry for the late reply. I got the keyboard from another member here. The folio case I ordered stgraight from AT&T, but they appear to have removed it from the site.
I am looking for a keyboard too.

Hey guys,
As some of you probably have read that Malata Zpad ships with an official (perfect fit) leather stand/case, i just wanna share that i have purchased it via the chinese ebay here: http: / /item. taobao. com /item. htm? id= 9003689863
Its 50 RMB so in USD its like 7 bucks. But because i don't have a chinese bank account (and many of you probably don't either) i have to go through a 3rd party (known as a taobao agent - google how to buy from taobao) to get this. It significantly jacks up the prices to about 20 USD. But its still cheaper than the ones unofficial leather cases you see on dhgate and alibaba.
My apologies if this has been posted before (though there are no similar posts showing up).
Cheers.

This one the one that you can order with the Zpad I think.
Here's a video showing the Zpad in the case.

What I don't like is that it doesn't look like it has a hole for the dock, and you can't get to SD and Full USB without taking off the whole cover.

Even if it had an opening for the dock, I seriously doubt it could be docked while in the case. The case would simply make it too thick to allow it to dock.
As for the USB and SDcard access... I don't think it that big of a deal for day to day use. You could always cut the case on that side to allow access if you REALLY REALLY wanted it that bad.

I've seen other covers for it with holes for the docking port. So maybe it will work with the cover on, will have to try it out and see.
It is a nice looking case -- but I've already ordered a Kindle DX case based on other recommendations...
If it doesn't fit properly though, I'll definitely consider this one...
Thanks

Great! Please post a review and pics when you receive it. I'm in for a group buy as well.
IS there actually a group buy? I don't see anything posted other than interest in one.
Hey all,
I found this on amazon. Thought maybe some might be interested. It's a cheap alternative and I've already placed my order for it. 9.58 isn't alot to spend and that's all i figured I'd lose. I ordered the brown one but there's a black one too. Might be a cheaper alternative to the tuf-luv case since some were worried about the bulk. I'll update this once I receive it and give you some pics.
Since it won't allow me to url tags or give out the url, search for Navitech + Asus and you should see what I'm talking about.
Let me know what you think!
This looks JUST like the Elsse Premium Synthetic Leather Case (there's a thread about this elsewhere in this sub forum). They were having a discussion there about whether or not the case would work with the dock as well, and I guess the answer would be yes, if you unfasten the velcro?
Can anybody confirm?
Is this what you mean? Looks good if not a little thick when all combined.
Anxious to hear any reviews.
Yeah...that's what I was talking about...apparently they must have had a huge messup with the price because I got one yesterday for 4.99 + 4.49 shipping....they've sent it and it looks like it's coming from the UK...anyhow...the 4.99 are gone and they've got only the 19.99 left. I'll give a review once I get the case...even if you undo the velcro, you can still to a material store (joanne fabrics, etc.) and get a longer velcro strap to hold it together. Thanks!
Wouldn't the rooCASE Slim work the same way?
http://goo.gl/V0RMe
roocase does not do the samee thing at all; this has a case for the tablet, then also for the docking port and then they finally work together somehow.

Looks like someone gave it 1 star on the Amazon product page. According to the reviewer it does not accommodate a docked tablet too well.

Looks like the reviewer may have a legit point. If you look at the sideways pictures, you can tell the tablet is not docked. The tablet hangs over the edge of the dock by almost an inch. Anybody who has the tablet with the dock knows that when it is closed, there is almost no overhang. I know I won't be buying it.
With that said, if anyone knows of a better case. Even one that would store the dock and tablet separately, I'd like to know about it.
ilgadets,
If you're interested in a sleeve case, I recommend this one:
http://www.overstock.com/Luggage-Bags/Wenger-Swiss-Gear-Legacy-10.2-inch-Tablet-iPad-Netbook-Slimcase/5804731/product.html
It has two zippered pockets, handles, a removable shoulder strap, and pockets on the front and back,
and it fits the Transformer and keyboard dock (separately) perfectly.
The handles can be slipped into the pockets, but that adds "bumps" that I didn't like.
I wanted the thinnest possible case, so I cut off the the handles and the triangular clips for the shoulder strap.
I think this is one of the best solutions for carrying the tablet and keyboard separately.
Regards,
Eric
FWIW - I grabbed one from best buy for an HP Mini 10 and it works perfectly. Fits very snug with the dock, and i feel safe carrying the tab around in it. Also has a zip pouch for a cleaning cloth, HDMI adapter, headphones, and other small items.
Was about $25 iirc... so a little bit more than what you're looking at here.

I have the exact same one, mines black and kinda has a 3D cube kinda pattern on the front. Anyways, I'm an employee, so mine only set me back $7. BBY employee discount is changing though, so that won't be the case in the future.
Anyways, case fits great, holds tab or tab+keyboard excellently.

Are you guys taking about a case or a carrying bag? Unless I'm mistaken, I believe the OP is talking about a folio type case for both the tablet and dock - kind of like this Tuff-Luv combo case.

Hahaha been around here long enough to know where threads go, this was meant to give people another dock option other than the Samsung one since I know a few people are not very pleased with it. But thanks for your "mod" suggestion.

I bought the same dock a couple weeks ago, still waiting for it too arrive! Sadly all of these come from Korea, so it takes a while. From my searching it seems to be the best bang for your buck dock. Guess I will have to see when I finally receive it.
Here is a question though. How snug does the phone fit without a case and the insert in the dock?
its a "tight" fit with the insert. you don't have to force the phone in, but it fits well.
Got the dock today and I would highly recommend it for the price! If you use a case with your phone this is a no-brainier. Personally I do not so I have to use the rubber insert, which for the most part is fine. I just don't like how it is a gray color instead of black. Got this dock for 11 dollars on eBay, i think that is a bargain for this dock.
Does it put the phone in dock mode when inserted into the dock like the oem dock?
I might be getting a HTC Amaze soon (and paying ~$150 on top of the hassle of selling it for a One S isn't worth it for me), and I'm considering getting the official desktop dock and car dock while they're still available...but is it worth it? Seems like getting them in-store is about the only place to get them (if the store has it period), as I only see like two eBay listings for just the car dock on the entire web. I get that they're not too extraordinary (desktop dock particularly), but I don't want to be with the Amaze a few months down the line and not being able to find either for a reasonable price.
i have not even seen the desktop dock anywhere i just got my amaze today from tmobile didnt see it in the store. On another note if you want to trade your s for my amaze let me know lol
I have both the car and desk dock personally. I have them in my store available for purchase, but i know not every T-Mobile store receives them
I wonder if someone who has the car dock would be willing to measure the diameter of the suction cup on it? I have a dash friction mount that I would love to attach the arm of the official dock to, but I don't want to buy it if the suction cup is larger than the surface on the friction mount I have.
Yes we have them in, I'm mad we don't get much amaze stuff but dock is cheap for 49.99

This is interesting. I had no clue there was a desktop dock for this phone. I've never seen it in store. I may have to pick it up and do a bit of modding to make a very useful car dock for GPS navigation as the one I have is a bit.....

Received the items yesterday. It's the real deal. OEM Car and Desk dock... still with the T-Mobile price tags attached. The desk dock is listed at $49.99 ALONE!
Since I could never find the car dock, I went with a different solution. I already had the Trident Kraken AMS case so I was able to buy a part from Trident that uses the AMS feature to turn into a car dock. The part is only $15, so if you have a Trident Kraken case, pair it up with a car charger and you are ready to go!

Thanks. I probably won't get one of either, but I wanted people to see where to find them.
- for the car holder, I have not been able to find a charger that will keep up with the battery drain of the Amaze when using data, GPS, and keeping the screen on. I use Google Maps navigation by connecting the BT and turning off the screen. Otherwise this would be a great setup.
- for the desktop, I keep my Amaze in a TPU case. Still I might consider it for home use at night...
Ah, what the heck, I went ahead and bought the car model - what a deal!!

Hello all!
So, if the winter storms allow it, on Thursday I will have my Xperia Ultra to replace my beloved Note 2. Shame on you Samsung for the "amazing" .18" display size increase of Note 3!
Anyways, as always I like to have my phone ready with some accessories.
I am still a bit confused about this whole magnetic charger thingy so please provide any feedback, recommendations etc or something I might be missing as well! :good:
For first...a basic cheap case for normal use..unless I change my mind and get something with a flip.
Cheapo case
Or maybe this one too for now as a battery and more protective case:
Case and 5000mAh battery
Car mount:
Mount
Finally for now this one confuses me: the dock/charger thing:
Are either of this the same and do I need something else besides the doc...? Like I have read about a magnetic cable too.
Doc1
Doc2
I am still wanting a stylus but I would like some sort of case with a thin stylus that I can hide into the case...yes, I am used to my note spen
And also I was planning to get my usual Zagg screen protector but not sore sure if anyone has tried it since a search for Zagg showed no results.
Thanks for any help!

I have deleted my long list of Xperia Z Ultra accessories found of dx.com/dealxtreme.com because they are utterly useless.
I ordered five things and ensured that they were not marked out of stock. A week later they sent me an email saying they couldn't send because something was out of stock. It proved impossible to respond to them: email bounced, phone numbers didn't work or were never answered, website chat didn't work. Their online ticketing system didn't allow creating a ticket to discuss order, you had to enter a SKU code and I didn't know which item was in doubt. Eventually I stumbled on a ticket type I could create (problem with paying) so I sent them a message and they admitted there were three items of the five they couldn't get! They asked for more time, after five days I told them to cancel the order with a full refund.
So, stay away from DX.com / dealxtreme.com as they are clearly utterly utterly useless.
This is the dock I got and have had good experiences with it. It is slow to charge but works well as a stand for you to charge your phone overnight.

How slow? The original DK30 uses around 2 hours to charge from 0-100%.
I see that Brando also have a bunch of X Z U accessories:

they're more expensive than DX, but Brando in my experience are usually good quality and offer good customer service.
I've still not seen a car dock that I want to buy, I want one that will hold my XZU whilst its in its case, and attach to the windscreen. So far universal tablet holders designed for smaller tablets have looked like the best option.

Regarding car dock, I got one from infiniapps, really like the design and you can use it with a case, works better with a thin case. I would recommend the tablet version and then buy 2 of the phone metal inserts.

they're more expensive than DX, but Brando in my experience are usually good quality and offer good customer service.
I've still not seen a car dock that I want to buy, I want one that will hold my XZU whilst its in its case, and attach to the windscreen. So far universal tablet holders designed for smaller tablets have looked like the best option.

I just use a generic windscreen holder to hold phone used it with my ipad mini until I sold it so use it for XZU which is good use my flip case with it and plug in my micro usb and aux cable. I haven't used a magnetic charger yet though with this phone may have to buy 1 and haven't used a dock dk30 isit are they any good I just can't really see me using 1 at night

Hello all!
So, if the winter storms allow it, on Thursday I will have my Xperia Ultra to replace my beloved Note 2. Shame on you Samsung for the "amazing" .18" display size increase of Note 3!
Thanks for any help!

I bought this windscreen mount. Works really well as was designed specifically for the Ultra

I'd stick with the DK30 dock. The maglock cable i used from DX.com wrecked my ultra. (after plugging in the magdock cable it started playing up. charging and discharging irregularly. Had to have a full mainboard replacement.) So its been 6 weeks and my ultra is finally being sent back to me after a major repair.
Link not working, can you try again?
I edited my first post and removed all links to DX website and replaced the posting to say people should avoid them

Good call, ordered some stuff for my Z1 while some month ago. Got a mail saying everything was shipped however the tracking number went nowhere. Waited some month, nothing and tracking number still a dud. Have emailed them several times with no response. I will never order there again. Is Brando more reliable?

|'ve bought things a few times from Brando and not been let down but not for a couple of years as it's often easiest to buy off ebay. I've not heard bad things about them, so I would be happy to buy off them.

Another vote for Brando. Efficient and reliable.

Anyways, as always I like to have my phone ready with some accessories.
I am still a bit confused about this whole magnetic charger thingy so please provide any feedback, recommendations etc or something I might be missing as well! :good:
For first...a basic cheap case for normal use..unless I change my mind and get something with a flip.
Cheapo case
Or maybe this one too for now as a battery and more protective case:
Case and 5000mAh battery
Car mount:
Mount
Finally for now this one confuses me: the dock/charger thing:
Are either of this the same and do I need something else besides the doc...? Like I have read about a magnetic cable too.
Doc1
Doc2
I am still wanting a stylus but I would like some sort of case with a thin stylus that I can hide into the case...yes, I am used to my note spen
And also I was planning to get my usual Zagg screen protector but not sore sure if anyone has tried it since a search for Zagg showed no results.
Thanks for any help!

Hello shaolin. Just wondered what your current accessories list is. I remember seeing you found a smart watch? I'm looking for something similar to smart watch 2 just wondered what you had. And in the way of charging and protection of phone. Thanks mate.

Hello!
I have been using the ZGPAX S5 watch. It is very powerful, not sure if you have seen some of the videos I uploaded but it runs emulators like MAME, Dreamcast and can even use the PS3 controller
BUT, the company that built it is as good it if did not exist because forget about any support from them.
So if no dev picks it up, you are not going to get much from it.
It is more of a Standalone watch than a companion to your phone. Currently only using an app called TableTak is how you can get text messages and reply from the watch.
For charging I bought the original DK30 magnetic charger. Expensive but well worth it.
As for protection, I bought some "explosion proof" glass protector for the front and a regular film protector for the rear and just some cheap plastic case from ebay just for when I am carrying it around. At home etc I just like the feeling of it naked so no cases there
Also about the watch, I returned it as the GPS was not working and right now I am undecided between buying it again or waiting for one to have ALL the features without having to fight to get things working.

I did see the videos yes did look pretty good. Apart from using a very small screen lol. I take it you use emulators on your xzu though. I think my best bet is getting a smart watch 2 at some point then. Do you actually use the dk30 dock or you taken the cable out? I can't see myself getting 1 as I always have a flip case on the phone as too worried about the phone. And wouldn't want to keep taking it out of case etc. I would like to find a genuine Sony magnetic charger though. If I do keep my xzu I would like to get some good accessories. But at present my xzu is in repair. So I have been debating about getting a HTC one max. Just not sure. I do want a good power flip case though would like the cp12. And like the look of the sbh52. that screen protector is it a glass protector and if so where did you get it from? What apps do you currently have on phone any useful/interesting ones?

I used the DK30 all the time. I prefer the phone without a case...only phone that I actually have done this with..it just feels to awesome to hold.
That is the reason I added the glass in front and film on the back though.
This is what I got Glass Protector
As for apps, gosh I got too much stuff to name
From lots emulators to music apps like for tuning my violin.
Folder Mount which I used to same big game data to the external card is a must for me.
