Sure, but then I have to be at my computer to load anything. I far prefer what I did, so it's just plain done. Plus I don't want the constant reminder that AT&T has crippled my phone - a phone I'm paying way too much for monthly. ;)

Good point... The only reason I used the sideload wonder machine in the first place was to get root explorer on my phone since the market was not working. After that I just modified the database file.

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.
[G Tablet Accessories] New2Android:
Hi thanks for the info. Pics and some more details will be highly appreciated.
[G Tablet Accessories] xjarl:
The pictures

This is the pictures of official case.It's no the leather case , just a PU one.

it's cost not more than 25 RMB,about 4 bucks.
[G Tablet Accessories] Bad@ssGtab:
Looks good......
[G Tablet Accessories] aaltieri:
What agent did you use for this purchase? For $20, I'll give it a go!
[G Tablet Accessories] theclassicalgod:
Looking nice AND it acts as a stand?! Yeah.... how did you make your purchase? I'm all over one of these.. lol
[G Tablet Accessories] SnakeManJayd:
This one the one that you can order with the Zpad I think.

Here's a video showing the Zpad in the case.

Malata Tegra 2 Tablet Hands on with Benchmarks

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.

Anyone have this? Can you confirm?
[G Tablet Accessories] xjarl:
I have

I have one. i can confirm it

also it is can not standing well,like the pics i listed

but if there are guys like it,you can give a PM to it2steve. we can put a group buy.
[G Tablet Accessories] SnakeManJayd:
I think my Zpad is already coming with one of these and the dock.

Might cut a hole in the bottom and get my wife to sew it neatly so that I can use it with the dock.
[G Tablet Accessories] xjarl:
Did the seller tell you?

Did the seller tell you there will come with 1 DOCK and 1 case?

If they tell you, will be come with all of them.

because now the standard Zpad not includ one DOCK.
[G Tablet Accessories] SnakeManJayd:
Ya, I specifically ordered it with a dock and cover.
[G Tablet Accessories] RojasTKD:
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.
[G Tablet Accessories] SnakeManJayd:
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.
[G Tablet Accessories] TeutonicWolf:
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

[G Tablet Accessories] ozzynyc:
At this point, i'm willing to donate my kidneys to get a case for this device. What a joke on Viewsonic part....Bastards!
[G Tablet Accessories] it2steve:
just replied to your PM... to make it clear I don't want to do group buys. I hate the idea of asking for $$$ upfront and have something fall through. Case in point, APX_ spent his own time and energy to get a group buy together and because of delay after delay it was either canceled or just drug out too long. Thanks to people like him we know that we at least have an avenue to get product here. I just hate the waiting game and I'm sure he get pounded with people wanting to know where things are even though it was completely out of his control.

For those that have emailed, I have created a 'list' and I will let you know as SOON as something is in my hands. 9 times out of 10 I get it shipped the day its paid (feel free to ask, I think the people I've shipped to will verify that).

I have to wait as well and I sure as hell don't want to have you waiting AND be out the money at the same time.

Ive heard the cases being called 'vaporware' and until something is in my hand then that's what it is. I am 'supposed' to have cases on Monday or Tuesday and I hate to even mention that until I have something. It is what it is.

I'm trying to get as much as I can as quickly as possible here for you guys. I'm not trying to make ANY money here, just trying to help the 'cause'. I cant program nor develop but I can order **** :) People that have dealt with me can vouch for that!

I will keep everyone posted of anything that comes in. For those that have contacted me already, of course I will let you know before I post online.
[G Tablet Accessories] ensign.fodder:
Steve - thanks for weighing in and taking one for the cause. Email on the way.
[G Tablet Accessories] jaycard:
Yeah this wonderful tablet definately needs a cover/case. For now, I just made my own, but this case for the zpad looks very nice. The Gtablet and zpad are made to have a case, they are the perfect size to carry with you around. :)
[G Tablet Accessories] aaltieri:
I'll re-ask my question to the larger audience, I guess:

Does ANYONE have ANY experience with an agent for this site?

I'm really not up for a group buy. As It2Steve pointed out, if there is a problem, what is the recourse? The vendor screws over APX_ or It2Steve... so now they get left holding the bag and on the hook for $50 from 20 people. If I want my money back, I have to hassle someone who was just trying to help out and got fleeced for his efforts. Similarly, if the product turns out not to be as good as advertised by the original vendor, then what? It's just not worth the headache to potentially save a couple bucks.

So if someone has a good agent recommendation, I think I'd rather just toss the extra couple bucks and order that way.

[G Tablet Accessories] Captian1310:
you can get it from Aliexpress...

I have heard mixed review about aliexpress and its a bit more than the 20 bucks.
[G Tablet Accessories] Blackbird1100:
Google Taobao Field Guide. There is a section on agents.
[G Tablet Accessories] lordgodgeneral:
I've got what looks like a zpad case on order from aliexpress.com and its hasn't been the most painless order I've ever done. Best guess from previous orders I've got about two weeks till I actually have the item in hands. I'd suggest an alternative way to get them if possible. Everything about the deal has seemed a little fishy, but able to finally to start tracking the package. Only reason I took the dive is because I could use paypal, gives a little more protection. I'll post picks if/when I get it.
[G Tablet Accessories] aaltieri:
I was hoping for a recommendation. I found a couple that seemed to have decent reviews. But, I was hoping someone here had some actual experience.

Thanks, though!

Didn't the gtablet from Sears come with a dock? Did it come with a case as well?
[G Tablet Accessories] RojasTKD:
Nope...

They did at one point offer a free case with it (around black Friday) and a rebate coupon (or something) for a dock through U.S. Merchants (w/ $12 for shipping). But that was for a limited time. I don't think they were both available it at same time.

It was a cheap case that they sell for $5.99. I'm not sure if anyone actually gotten the dock.

Hey, the micro sd and usb are indeed behind the flap. But removal is extremely easy so thats no big prob.

MALATA Official Case + Dock Walkthrough

Hi guys,

As promised, here are some pictures of my recent purchase. I have really tried the dock so no pictures of that since you have probably seen a ton of those. The official malata case is the focus of my post today.

Review:

- case works fine (stands well)

- case fits perfectly (well it meant for it so this is expected)

- the flap that opens to the usb and microusd slot is covered so if you need to access that frequently, you will need to remove the case

- the case is extremely easy to remove (refer to one of the pictures). It is kept in place by an inserted flap. Removal causes no damage to tablet whatsoever.

- overall ----> AWESOME

(If you cannot see the images posted above, go to http: // www. facebook .com/ album. php?aid = 263321&id = 600276957&l = 853237eb4e )

Ok. So to buy from taobao,

I used the following agent: http : // www. myobook. net/ (Obook is a company based in Shanghai)

Steps:

1) Email them @ obook@yahoo.cn regarding item to purchase (http: / /item. taobao. com /item. htm? id= 9003689863) and delivery location

2) They should email you with a quotation within 2 days

3) Quotation can really jack up the purchase price (i attempted to buy just the case and the quoted shipping price + commission was 57% of the entire price - i.e. item made up only 43%). I recommend bulk buying if you guys stay within an area.

4) Wait for item to arrive. They provide tracking numbers.

Some information:

- I agreed to quotation on 22/1/11 and item arrived on 31/1/11.

- Officers who attended to me via email was an Alice and a Bon, both were very courteous and went about their job well.

- Very satisfied with service.
[G Tablet Accessories] japhule:
Nice write up. You should be able to modify your post to allow links and attach pics now that you have over 10 posts. How's the construction of the case? Do you feel like it will last awhile and be able to stand when used frequently?
[G Tablet Accessories] amusedkid:
Hey will edit when I get home:) the case is very solid so far. (sent from my g tab)
[G Tablet Accessories] Andronick:
Gave a shot at Obook

I feel the same way you do, and considering that an agent must be used I thought to take the risk for myself.

I completed the order process yesterday. Until the payment was sent, I dealt with a very courteous and efficient woman. Once the payment was processed, they switched me over to some other guy who told me "not to worry, no news is good news"...

Now I am worried!

The way it works is that they have to obtain the stock from the provider before shipping it, which might create a longer delay.

Also, they mentionned that the standard shipping method that ends at 20$ for us could take us to the end of february. So I opted for a speedier option.

It is all the info I have at the moment, hopefully I will be able to provide a review of OBOOK's services when and if the case gets here.

Will keep you posted.:o
[G Tablet Accessories] amusedkid:
Hey,

The no news is good news bit is their modus operandi. They told me the same thing and i got the item without delays. I'm sure you will find your buy worth it. In fact they are rather reputable and have a sister account (feedback gathering account) on ebay. Tons of good reviews. That was what made up my mind in the first place.
[G Tablet Accessories] taruross:
Andronick,

Look forward to hearing how it works out.

[G Tablet Accessories] spykat:
If someone finds a avenue to purchase these I will do the purchase provided I all who want a case actually pay me after I recieve the shipment, if not I will sell them on ebay for for more than what I pay for them.
[G Tablet Accessories] spykat:
Just realised Andronick has already made the purchase, how many did you order multiple or just for yourself, if multiple are all of the pieces spoken for? If not I would certianly buy one from you.
[G Tablet Accessories] linesma:
Thanks for the information. I will have to give it some thought about purchasing this.
[G Tablet Accessories] it2steve:

[G Tablet Accessories] Andronick:
Got it!

Hey guys!

The cover came in today, exactly as promised! OK it'a not leather but it sure feels all right for me.:) I'll have to see how tough it is in the long run though.

So go ahead and proceed with Obook, they did a great job and actually refunded me some of the shipping because the rates lowered during the processing of my order!:D

Sorry I did not buy it in bulk, it was my first time dealing with an agent and I did not want to take too much of a risk. Also, being based in Canada, I was not convinced that running the risk of having our taxes added to the purchase was any service to pay you guys, especially with another shipping having to be done afterwards.:o

Check with it2Steve, he's been the man up to now when it comes to organizing bulk buys.

Guys I have nero v5 installed and I want to install the stock samsung vibrant froyo. Is it stable and how do I install the update. I backed up my stock 2.1 rom and am ready to restore to 2.1. Do I idyll 2.2 through kies or what
[Vibrant General] XiaoSiuMai:
download kies mini and update through there
[Vibrant General] OuncE718:
You install it through Odin. Personally I don't think its worth the upgrade from Nero unless you like the stock look. I came from Nero v5 to try out this rom and notice that my wifi is much slower, when wifi is off my bars say 3g but internet browsing feels like its on edge, and I can barely get a gps lock. On Nero I always get a lock no matter where I am. Of course apps load slightly slower, but that's not my biggest issue with the rom.
