I'm using the 'samsin' yes that's how it spelt, bluetooth speakers, search ebay there about £25 and the RiiTech Rii mini bluetooth mouse and keyboard about £30... it really is awesome... thanks for listening...
For a PC,isn't it too small?
At first glance,I thought you connects a LCD monitor and a Full-size Keyboard to the phone,like Atrix's laptop dock.

Well I could plug it into my 50" Sony but for a portable solution this works very well.. the keys are big enough to type at quite a speed despite their size.. but thanks for your comments

Very impressive..
Can you tell me one thing tho..
How does the mouse work? do you physically see a cursor on the screen?
is using the mouse on the s2 exactly the same as using on a pc?
and when you have a BT KB hooked up, does the android KB pop up in all text boxes?
Your setup is exactly what i had in mind but with a hdmi to vga converter for using with hotel tvs.
Yes.. you get a little white pointer... left mouse selects right mouse takes you back a step... its very similar to a laptop trackpad...
You still get the screen keyboard or you can disable it..

Can't find the keyboard on ebay, could you post a link please?!
I do agree that the Galaxy S 2 is good enough to use as a PC especially for web browsing etc but I would want to use a bigger screen
when the mhl adapter is available this will be a lot more viable being able to connect to any HDMI enabled screen, currently the screen is too small to use seriously as a laptop replacement.
Name it after a fruit beginning with A and charge $1500 .

Hi, this keyboard seems very nice
Do you connect it directly via bluetooth or are you using the usb port for it? I've seen in a video that the keyboard includes a usb adapter.
Well, its bluetooth but has a mini usb socket which it has been suggested would work via a usb OTG cable that converts micro usb to mini usb
I have succesfully connected it to a ps3 via usb and bluetooth

Does the keyboard have a touchpad on the right hand side?
Yes, absolutely, and two mouse buttons!
to be honest, once you have factored in the price of the phone you'd be better with a android tablet with more screen real estate, imagine a tablet running this cpu chip combo - now thats a tablet I would like to own.... fnck that tegra rubbish

I feel like expanding my tab. So I'm having a hard time deciding on buying the keyboard dock or save $50-60, and get the dock stand and a bluetooth keyboard. Battery life is not a factor since I'm getting 7 to 9 hours per charge, and but usb port is. Just wanted some opinions.

If you've gone for a while without ever needing the keyboard dock, there isn't much that any of us could say that would make you change your mind, and judging by your case the dock stand should work just fine. And if you wanted to save even more money, you could just use a cheap USB keyboard instead of paying for a Bluetooth.

I'm assuming you have the dock. What is your experience with it.

Well the physical slide in keyboard (the one advertised with the TF) would be a better choice of mobility and all that. Using a bluetooth keyboard on the go would be extremely hard. If you plan on using the keyboard only at home, then getting the desk dock and bluetooth keyboard would be pretty cool, especially if you connect your TF to your TV, and then you could use the bt keyboard to control it from your couch.
Thanks for asking this, I've been looking for that dock and haven't been able to find it. Thinking of ordering this now since I use my tab as an alarm clock.

The added battery life is fantastic, and I use the USB ports all the time for transferring files between hard drives. My only complaint with the keyboard dock is that the keyboard itself sucks. I've never been a fan of the chiclet style keys, but I guess you don't really have much of a choice if the aim is to keep the device really thin.
I tolerate the keyboard when I have to on the go, but I'm definitely planning on getting the dock stand at some point so that I can use one of my nice mechanical keyboards with it at home.
I have the keyboard doc and I really enjoy it. It integrates well with the transformer and it works exceptionally well. It has been really useful for me to use at work. The added bonuses have been discussed, never had an issue with the battery running out, love the USB ports and the SD slot. As someone else mentioned, the chicklet style keyboard and the sensitivity of the mouse pad gets me sometimes. (I have big hands). Overall it is great, I love it.

This thread makes no sense to me. The dock is a no brainer and what separates the Transformer from the crowd. Just buy it and don't even think about it
I agree the dock is the way to go.
It a very well thought out system. The USB ports and portability alone will make you glad you got it. Not to mention the full size SD card slot and extra battery.
yep..+1 for the TF dock...
it works so well and put all other 3rd party ones to shame..
Another +1 for the dock.
I find it quite comfortable typing on for a keyboard of its size. Takes a bit getting used to tho. Besides, I doubt any BT keyboard would allow you to rest the tablet in your lap (in any comfortable angle) without holding it. If it wasn't for the way these two pieces integrate, I doubt I would even own a tablet of the current generation.
it has a usb keyboard and wireless mouse and one free usb for memory drives.
made out of orignal tablet box and a old lcd monitor stand also a 3 dollar 3 port usb hub from office depot.
let me know what you think.

Hey that's pretty cool. Is it solid? Thinking about the height / angle, where do you use it? (coffee table, computer desk etc)
the stand is adjustable so it will go from the coffee table to computer desk no prob and it is realy stable.
i can even rotate the screen and look at it in port mode if im reading or what not.
Could you possibly go more in depth with how you made this i really like it and wouod like to do one myself
That actually looks pretty nifty. I'd also like to see how you did it.
i will get more pictures up today so you can get a general idea of how it was made, it took like 6mins to make.
i will post thepix after i get them in my bucket account.

Sweet, thanks!
Looks like you Velcro-ed it onto an old PC monitor.
At first I was like, "whaaa?" -but the idea has grown on me.
Well done!
the fit one i jst cut 2 holes in the back of the orignal packaging and put the tabs on the top of the monitor stand in the holes and then glued the rest to the stand.
the 2nd one i glued te keyboard to a small monitor stand to make it look as if floating and to be able to use my mouse under it,
i like the 2nd stand better, and i shortened the usb cable for the keyboard since i dont need wire all over since the tab is sitting right ove it and it also has a usb hub for the wireless mouse and my iphone.
I love it!
Great work indeed. Love to see the DIY mods. I need to do this myself now. Thanks or sharing it.
i think im going to make a book style case for it now.
LOL you stole my idea... I have an old book that is big enough to encase the tab. I'm going to hollow out the pages and glue them together and make some sort of latch/magnetic closure to keep it secure. I think I wanna find a push-n-lock type latch so I just close it and snap it closed, and when I wanna open I squeeze it and it pops open. Still undecided on the locking mechanism but I'll figure something out
I was going to do the same hollow the book and glue pages then I was going to drill 2 holes for magnets and a metal plate a thin one in the cover to keep it closed.
I have not had time to work on it though I'm modding my Mac mini.
My version
I took a different approach:
The black box is the tablet in its case. The monitor is an HP 1850 and it is connected via hdmi with an HP hdmi/vga adapter. The keyboard is a bluetooth from HP's Touchpad fire sale. $25 for the hdmi/vga and $20 for the keyboard.
The monitor I switch on and off with my Acer netbook.
The picture is pretty crappy, but you get what you pay for.

That is truely awesome I Wonder if there are docking stations out that let you connect both å hdmi screen AND a mouse and keyboard?
I love this idea and it is clever of canonical to ride on the back of the success of Android.
But I'm not sure how I would use it. When I use my computer (which has oneric) I also want to able to use my phone separately.
Perhaps a better solution for me would be to have a standard Ubuntu install that gains phone powers when the phone is docked. It would make apps like airdroid obsolete.
I totally see how other people will have a use for this and I hope it's a huge success.
It's great news

If you have the dock w/ hdmi out, just use a bluetooth keyboard and mouse or a keyboard w/ built in trackpad. Then pair up bluetooth headphones in case you get a call so you don't lose your desktop. That'd be the easiest imo.

On Ubuntu we have this requirement:
HDMI: video out with secondary frame buffer device
The Note have this secundary buffer?
Because the HDMI is mirror mode by default.
Anyone with technical knowledge can do a test?
I searched and found this information from another phone:
Primary frame buffer:
/dev/graphics/fb0
Secundary:
/dev/graphics/fb1
Tnks all.
i was thrilled to see this, but would sure love to also occasionally run it while not docked (you know... like a laptop or tablet...). i realize they probably did this due to battery life concerns or something, but hey, why rule it out?
Is our note compatible with this? I do not see a HDMI out!

I suspect there probably is a secondary frame buffer given that when watching videos through MHL, the playback controls display on the phone screen but not the TV...

Just bought the one you mentioned above; keyboard works pretty good but times out very quickly. It has to be reconnected in the settings every 15 minutes or so of inactivity. Typing is extremely fast and responsive though.
This keyboard is more of a universal keyboard than it is tailored to Android. It's got a home key on it, and the esc key doubles as a back key, but it also has a Windows logo key.
My biggest complaint is the folio case itself is extremely cheaply made. It's floppy, and doesn't really support itself very well. As a matter of fact, it almost makes it awkward to use. The keyboard is molded into the case and does not come out. The tablet is held on by one big sticky patch on the case. It doesn't leave any residue, but it does leave me wondering how many times I can remove the tablet from the case before it doesn't stick any more. Unfortunately the tablet doesn't fit into my car dock RAM mount while it's in the case, so I would be removing the case every day.
The case also covers the speakers on the Iconia, which muffles the sound pretty good.
All in all, like the keyboard, hate the case. I think it's way too overpriced to have such a crappy, flimsy, cheap feel to it. I think I'll be returning it.
Att sells a real nice keyboard. Very thin. 50 bones though
The standard acer bluetooth keyboard and acer mini usb mouse is the best combination I have found to date. I use this setup in the office. But to go mobile...this makes you carry around a keyboard no matter what. It's nice, not practical for daily mobile use IMO.
worth it
I got this keyboard, works wonderfully. Adhesive bit sticks nicely to tablet, keys travel well, And connects easily via bluetooth. Worth it if you need a keyboard. I've used it for school, taking notes, even writing whole essays on docs
I bought this keyboard for only 14 bucks
^Same as him. Works like a champ too, I would recommend it in a heart beat. I've had mine since Feb and its still in great shape plus, despite the look, it protects the tablet well.

And here is another.

Additionally, just get yourself a PSP, Vita, or DS. The games are much better, and if you're going to carry around something like a ps3 controller or whatever, you might as well carry around a real gaming device.
(I used to carry a datel retro wiipad or a ps3 controller to play emulated games.....but trust me, ladies would much rather see you playing a PSP, and even that is a curse)
Seems like it would be better just to pick up an Xperia Play, no?

If you're wanting to do the mod yourself...
I'd recommend instead of "splitting" the controller (which requires additional wires, soldering, and a new enclosure for the PCB), to take the other products' idea and make a "dock-like" style.
The only thing you would need to "mod" would be to add the dock foundation near the usb port of the controller, but it must accommodate the contours of the controller and the phone. And you would need to solder a converting usb plug (from the controller usb to your phone usb, which is most likely two different kinds). That way, whenever you slide your phone into the dock part, the soldered, converted usb plug automatically fits into your phone and the controller now supports the weight of your phone.
well got my PS3 controller today, and bought the sixaxes
right now i think to get a car mount for the gnote and mod it to the controller
What you need sir, is a lot of ducktape.

Seems like the only easy way for now. Splitting a controller would be intensely boring with a nice chance of failure, need augmented vision to really solve this issue....FTW
I bought one of these, http://www.amazon.com/Breffo-Spiderpodium-Stand-iPhone-Cellphone/dp/B003O1V5CY.
I use my Photon 4G with my Sixaxis controller on the bus just about every day. I found if you bend the legs too much right where they attach to the body, they will snap, and hang loosely. But I called Breffo, sent them my Amazon receipt, and they sent me a new one, no charge.
For me, it's the best solution.
I was using this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qw_UBLt-Ckk, but it eventually broke, and it was heavy as hell. The Breffo is lighter.
