Guys, any recommendation for a case that has a magnetic sleep wake function, plus its slim so that it can still fit in pockets? Any opinions about this one?

Guys, apparently android 4.3 allows both the volume button to act as the camera shutter button. Anyone tried?

I'll probably buy from newegg too, but am a bit sceptical..went through up to 5 exchanges of my 1st gen nexus 7 that i purchased there, and ended up with full refund in the end...they were nice enough to exchange for me each time and I'm grateful for that..but you do start to wonder the defective products is due to google, asus, or newegg, when you face it 5 times in a row..however, they have good customer service, and reasonable price, which is why am still considering to get it from them..

Looked up for the Tegra Note tablet,
N7 has a better screen and extra 1gb of memory.
albeit the tegra 4 processor will be better than n7's qualcomm processor in terms of raw power.

however tegra 3 did left many dissapointed, not forget to mention the tegra note might not have 3g/4g support.

that's a good point, though for me, even though fhd is awesome, hd is still enough. And about the ram...I haven't see any website that says its only 1gb. And also I usually just go for wifi only models. About the processor..many were disappointed with the tegra 3, but why exactly? It did fine for me hmm.gif

Guys, currently i'm using my n7 with the poetic case, and realize that occasionally, the smart wake function doesn't work. It works about 90% of the time, the other 10% seems random. After careful observation, i realize that the smart wake won't work when the device is not connected through wifi, which is why it has no problem working at my house or office, but shows some problems in other places with no wifi.. Not a big problem, since the power button works fine, just thought I'll let you guys know, for those facing same problem.

Sure enough, with some research, my deduction is true...

Mine has 3 magnets n I had yet to face the issues he faced. The case is working perfectly waking n closing display in every situation

benny, i dare say you're one helluva lucky guy biggrin.gif but I would say its a small problem, didn't exactly try to solve it..maybe can solve if by leaving bluetooth on? Since i heard its affected by both wifi and bluetooth being off. Anyway I'll just wait for the next software update smile.gif
