CutCutCut: Just saw this http://www.top-10.co.nz/motorola-xoom-10-1-dual-core-processor-android-3-0-honeycomb-1.html?SID=9164b6ec64ddf56ed4b9b770322f00e7. Seems not a bad price for a 32GB android tablet, but I've never sued one or used this site either.

$20 for shipping is a joke. I asked them what the deal is with expensive shipping, I was ignored.

On that fact alone I would avoid using them.

Probably because they're not shipping from within NZ.

The Poetic slimline PU leather cases arrived this week and they have all been sent to their new owners.

We are very happy with our case. It certainly makes the Touchpad more secure to hang on to, and it looks nice and smart. All of the buttons and ports are still easily accessible, the swipe from the edge still works and the stand is a good angle for using in landscape mode particularly when sitting with it on your lap or in bed.

I hope the other owners who joined in the purchase find the case as good as we do.

I saw the poetic tpu gel case on ebay but they don't have option ship to nz. I would like to get one of those.

I'm not familiar with the gel case and I'm not sure which seller you were looking at but these guys will ship to New Zealand even though New Zealand isn't listed. http://myworld.ebay.com/youlovethisdeal/?_trksid=p4340.l2559

They sell the same case as I got. Their price isn't as sharp as the one I got off Amazon but their postage price to NZ is not bad for a single item, only problem is for multiple items they still ship singly so there is no benefit using them for a bulk buy.

That's a very good rate on the postage.

My Poetic case turned up on Monday, NZ Post took an awfully long time to get it to me.

Pleased with the case, fits nicely, seems well made. Thanks very much Technofreak!

No problems. I'm very pleased you're both happy with the case. It's always a bit of a gamble buying something sight unseen so to speak, especially when you're buying for others as I would feel responsible if they weren't happy with the item.

Also thanks to you Stevenz and Magu and the other two Geekzoners for joining in with the buy as it helped make the shipping a bit cheaper.

some apps on the market wont show up like opera facebook and not use to this 10' phone system. many thing use to fit in the 4' screen. overall good but webos still got the better ui look.
