Is there a chance that Archos will release a notebook dock

Post by elya »

After begining to see the kind of docks like the samsung galaxy and expecially that incredible one of Asus EEE Pad (http://www.asuseeepad.net/eee-pad-dock-keyboard.php) I'm wondering if we can expect such dock especially for the 101 version (that way it became like a real kind of notebook)

Certainly they seem to be advertising a keyboard on the site that may be available when the 101 is released.

I think that keyboard looks very sexy and a lot more practical than a dock (lighter, smaller, device independent). I just hope it's not too expensive.

not to be rude but they way the dock looks why not just buy a netbook?? i know the tablet can be removed but to be honest if i have a keyboard/mouse it will be on my desk..

well netbooks really are not that great. I never understanded the potential of having a netbook. Tablet is really different and really portable. I have found some really good leather cases for 10'' and 7'' with a keyboard but i dont share it with you because this is my first post here and i dont want to be seen like advertising things.

I would be interesting in the links you have... :O).. a leather case and keyboard combo would be interesting..

Actually if i was to get a keyboard i might go with one of those roll-up ones..

There is only white coloured case for 10 inch but i dont mind i hate the brown.I am so buying it tomorrow i just have to put some money in my prepaid visa.

Well i checked my previous message and i was wrong its not real leather (of course) but still does the job for me.

Hi, i followed your link and checked with dealextreme for the case, but its costly is what i feel! I checked with another site Chinabuye, online shop of China. I like the wide collections of cases and even the keyboard looks awesome and above all quite reasonable rates that i can afford. I am planning next week. Will update once i get them!

yeah I want one of these too, although the eedoc looked interesting.
Be careful with the leather ones though make sure you get one with the clip on the side(the one you posted doesn't) that way IF you carry it around in it it won't slide out. Also from what I've read these were designed for the zt-180 which is thicker so the fit may be a bit loose.
I'm planning on ordering one of these this week.

As regards vendors from China, I found another one providing such items. Here is it: http://www.nowsupplier.com/mini-bluetoo ... p-489.html
I bought a tablet from them and it works well.
