I switch between the back cover with flip and without depending on mood, now that I have the SGP SP, I can use the one without the flip cover at the front. Personally, I feel that the flip cover front is psychological. You felt safe that it covers the front but the way it sways about when taken out because it is not latched to anything doesn't protect the screen from any scratches, just a "perceived" peace of mind. I'm still gonna hang on to my flip cover case, but not relying on it to provide any scratch protection. That is the job for a proper screen protector and a pouch.

You can go commando and go naked all the way, but the way I deal with my gadgets, they need to be relatively pristine and look relatively okay during their yearly sale later, hence the effort to protect them. But for God sake, please don't go for any leather cases that cling to the phone and make it look fat. Even while I'm using iPad I shake my head in disappointment at fat leather cases that envelops the iPad and makes the originally thin iPad becomes a ChinaPad fattie. Design aesthetics is one of the reason you're attracted to the device in the first place wasn't it? Don't spoil it by wrapping it in dead animal skin.

Tired of looking for a dock solution, purchased this online already:



Now just wait. Looking around also the options available locally are all crappy.

SGP Ultra Clear for no compromise on screen clarity, Ultra Matte if you hate glare. The SP even allows multiple lifting and reapplying if you get bubbles in between, comes with squeegee to squeeze all the bubbles out. Don't compromise, you bought the Note at a premium price, don't use a pakai-buang SP.

Once you've installed it, it's hard to squeeze out the bubbles. Lifting it up once installed exposes it to dust which further introduces more bubbles.

That's the advantage of the SGP. Even after applied, you can still properly squeeze out the bubbles.

Granted, I left mine to the professionals to do it, but if I were to do it myself, I'd be applying the SP one third of the way down and squeegee it carefully all the way, no bubbles in between.

YMMV. Of course you can get somewhat acceptable results with RM9 SPs, but there's a reason why it's RM9 in the first place.

Yes, since it is no contract, your purchase is treated as if you're buying it off SEP. Which qualifies you to a 2 year warranty.

Dungeon Defender Second Wave is broken. The only chain fire 3D plugin that works, the Nvidia plugin causes the controls of be displayed off-screen. It's all perfect right up until that point.

DICE Player. Hardware accelerated movie player. "HW" icon will light up green when indicating running hardware acceleration. Any other movie player runs software processing only, which will eat into battery endurance.

Affirmative. Everything works until the game starts, the controls are offscreen.

Read what the previous poster said: he was one of the early birds. Are you?

Bottom line is, unless you're okay with khakis, fitting the 7" anything into a jeans pocket is pushing it.

You echo exactly my sentiment. I left my iPad 2 at home already now.

I thought the stock lock screen has notification for missed calls and SMSes? Got those on mine.

Added on November 27, 2011, 6:47 pmRead my post again carefully. The whole post was about fitting a 7 inch device in a jeans pocket. I've no doubt that surfing on anything larger than a phone screen is much more pleasurable, but the case in point here is "fitting a 7 inch device into a jeans pocket". Slipping an RM2K device in a baggy jeans pocket is possible, but you risk having your pants pulled down in the process.

It tells you how many missed called and SMSes are received between the last time you locked it and the time you look at it last. I just called my two numbers, and yes, it shows.

It's the stock lock screen, not the pattern lock screen.

Here's how it would look:-



Even that model has to keep on pushing the device down her back pocket!

It can be done, BUT extremely uncomfortable on a traditional jeans. Khakis, cargo pants or Dockers, sure it'll hide the bulges, but better tighten that belt, else you don't wanna your pants to slip down due to the weight.

Reports here says that NoLED is a battery drainer.

Easy Rooting Toolkit. For those who don't wanna mess around much about kernels or ROMs, just simple root. I did mine and it's flawless.

Yup, missed calls and SMSes are tallied and represented as symbols marked in red sphere inside the circular lock sphere. Easy to notice and to check as well.

Sandisk. I had to option to go Kingmax, but I've got nothing but good experience with Sandisk. I'm using 64GB SDXC Class 6.

Ultra Clear. Total clarity, as if no screen protector.

I expect it as much too, with that tip bulging out. The Sony Vaio P is after all more oblong than the rectangular Tab.

I believe him too. Whatever he said before he deleted them.

SGP Ultra Clear.

fourth time I'm repeating this.

Does it ride out like the Vaio P advertisement when you walk?
