A folio case, a screen protector, and a usb charging cable. My review.

I don't have it yet, but I ordered one of these cases with the keyboard. If I don't care for it, I can always return it. I also ordered the car power adapter and the earbuds.
I've also ordered a capacitive touch pen from another seller and everything should arrive midweek.
I purchased the FlexT9 Keyboard with swipe, trace and voice but I'm still not sure if I like it. I think I need to practice more with swipe, as I'm not very good. It takes me too many "swipes" for my liking.
There.must be a certain technique to it and I am sadly lacking.

ETA: I ordered a pretty nice anti-glare screen protector on eBay for about $12.00 and it seems to work very well and I'm happy with it so far. Glare is greatly minimized, fingerprints are not a problem and there have be no issues with the response. It registers and responds to my touch immediately and accurately.

lightshedder,

Thanks for your above reviews.

It would be great if you have an opportunity to add some photos highlighting your observations about the anti-glare screen protector, both the antiglare properties and the graininess.

Post updated with results of informal test of the Griffin PowerBlock, and a few more pics. Case mod still to come.

the Griffin Powerblock - can it store battery charge & be used as back up power supply?

[lightshedder]

@ddjen: no the Powerblock is only a charger. Griffin makes something similar that does both but it only puts out 1.1 amp, so it will not work with the Archos 101

thx LS, enjoyed your posts.

Okay...I posted the modifications to the NewMp3Tech folio case which give it a fully adjustable (and fully functional) stand!

Thanks for the tip. I'm going to run right out and buy some velcro and sticky-backed feet in addition to the forty bucks I already spent, then start cutting & sewing to make the case work properly....

But seriously, NewMP3Technology is at fault for selling a piece of junk like this in the first place.
