I doubt it. It's probably housing the 10.1 Note's S Pen inside, though.
Looks to big. Better to be in top pocket anyway if its bt to the phone
oh wow, this looks awesome!
i wouldn't even have to bring my phone to school anymore. i'll just leave my tablet in my backpack and have the bt pen clipped onto my shirt or something. when i feel it vibrate, i can just answer my call through the pen . i might look kinda weird to others when they see me, but i don't care!

Can somebody tell.
I don't think many people actually own this at the moment:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1838111
, but from the looks of it, it's safe to say that it won't fit into the 10.1 Note's pen slot:
http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/15/samsung-bt-hm5100-s-pen-hands-on/
The "nib" looks more like 10.1's tip rather than the one on the 5.3 Note, but it may or may not actually house the 10.1's pen inside. Not sure this last part matters, anyway...

I just ordered this item. I'm excited to see how it works with the tablet.
I'm confused. This is a pen that:
> Does the samething as the S Pen already included
> It has a mic, speaker and answer-call button
> It connects with your phone via BT
> You can answer a call that got to your phone, while you're using the tablet???
So what is the justification. It's not like your phone is never handy and the tablet always is... Imagine this scenario:
Your are at work at your desk minding your own business doing whatever you do with your tablet. A call comes in, more than likely your phone is in your pocket or on top of your desk, so you can see a call is coming. So, instead of picking up your phone, you press the lil button on the pen because the pen is already in your hand and you're too lazy to reach for your phone. So, imagine that in the middle of the conversation you are given details you need to jot down, you can't put down the BT S Pen to write a memo on your Note 10.1 because that's where the call is coming from, so you either grab your old S Pen or common pen and paper.

So what did I miss? You can't even use this pen while the old S Pen is in the Note's silo. I've tried to use my other Wacom pen while the S Pen is in the hole and there is no way it gets registered.
So, somebody please enlighten me what benefits will I get if I shell out another 200 bucks on this pen.

I have Google voice. I thought it would be more convenient to answer the call over talk atone, not my phone, when say I'm in the other room. Or don't want to run to the other room to get the phone. My google voice always rings before my phone, too. Doesn't fit but my case has the s pen holder.
That being said, I think Samsung was trying to be innovative (or expand on an idea originally posed by Asus). Nifty feature. Some will see it as useful, others a toy.
I'm sure I could say the same as what's the point of a Bluetooth headset? But I think **** Tracey would like this!
Better for 007.
just got my pen and took it out of the box. instructions are in chinese so they are of no help. Doesn't seem to work. I figured it should work out of the box like the s pen, but it doesn't. I have it charging now, but why would that make a difference?
Can anyone that has one lend me a hand?
update...
so you have to take the original C Pen out of the tablet for it to register...

So I got a 10.1v model, not the standard 10.1 so pretty much any keyboard that would need the tab to slide into it is a no-go for me as the 10.1v is a few milliliters thicker.
So, unless you point me to anything else, this is the only keyboard I've encountered that I could use that is somewhat "tied" to the tablet :

Did one of you guys purchased one of these ? Are they any good ?
I tried to find something but nothing...I could go with a "floating" bluetooth keyboard is the quality is better.
Thanks !
I used this one for while, until I returned it- no complaints. I just didn't need it.

Go out and buy it, it's awesome!
Bluetooth connection is really easy, it has a fast wake up (and you can wake your device up by pressing any key [this even unlocks a non-protection screenlock] whoo!) and a humongous long battery duration.
Additionally, the build quality is very fine!

Thinking that this might be stupid / crazy..
Well, I dont know whether this is the best thread to post this.. Please let me know if there's any other thread that to which this post has to be moved..
So my crazy / stupid question is ---
Has anyone tried using the asus keyboard dock with the samsung galaxy tab ?
I think this may be something stupid becoz i am already thinking that the charging port for both the tabs are totally different and this may not work at all..
Still I am just curious to know whether this has been tried by anybody...

To answer the OP's question... I just got one from eBay for $26 US. It works very well. For that much money, it's hard to beat. Your CDMA GT should fit in it just fine. Both the keybaord and the case are good quality, and can't be beat for that much money.
I do see one potential problem, however. When the case is latched closed the rubber (soft plastic) bracket that supports the base of the tablet comes into contact the screen and does exert a slight amount of pressure on the screen. Over time I am guessing that may damage the screen, but I'm just guessing - not sure about that at all.
Actually, I like the standard Samsung book case the best for the Galaxy Tab, and I don't always need the keyboard. So I'm going to take the little rubber keyboard out of this case and carry that separately. For $26, even that is a great buy.
This case/keyboard is sold under a bunch of brand names. Here is a bunch of reviews on Amazon, if you like to read them.
Hey Dan,
I've been using the Mobile Keyboard 6000 from Microsoft for a few weeks now.
The price is a bit overkill but sure worth the quality you get. And the number pad being detached from the letters is a nice feature if your on the go all the time, leaving the number pad behind is sometimes a plus. It is slightly bigger then the tablet itself but i don't mind since also use it for at home.
Ive been rocking the typing book cover for 2 days now, and so far i like it aside from a few things. But its not putting me off of it with its sleek tight fit.
The main issue is that there is no place to hold a stylus. (PS definitely worth the 20 bones to pick one up) and second, when it is being held in its typing arrangement, you cannot have anything plugged in besides the headphones. It does have a small slit so that the headphone jack doesn't have to be removed and put back in every time but they didn't do the same for the charger/accessory port.
Cheers!

I just picked the same one up at Target for $30 on clearance yesterday. Not a fan and I wouldn't recommend it. The cookie-sheet case feels flimsy and it doesn't protect the back of the tablet at all. The metal edges are kind of sharp (not knife sharp) but I have to be careful not to scratch the sides of my tab when putting it face down in this case. I also don't feel that it's very secured when closed (tablet face down). The keyboard works alright, it's very responsive, and it pairs easily and maintains it's connection, but some of the dedicated buttons don't work. I also would rather re-map some of the android keys such as the email button to open gmail. Maybe I can, but haven't looked into it. I guess it's ok if you're looking for a cheap bluetooth keyboard, but I don't trust it to protect my tablet. Idk how logitech justified this as a $100 case.
**edit** Been using this case with the blueputdroid app on my phone as a mouse and am loving it!
So tell me how S-Pen really works? If i have understood right inside the S-Pen there is no battery? Yet still there is at least two switch at the pen (tip of the pen and side button) and also phone knows where you are hovering your pen even if you are not touching the screen. So how this all works?
This is interesting it would be cool to know that..
I heard that its using magnet.Not sure lol.

It must be some form of magnetic field. The phone can even tell when you leave your pen and walk away.....

You need to first turn the option on in S Pen settings. It might not be turned on by default.
Then take your s-pen out, use it on the screen for a bit, leave it somewhere as you put your phone in your pocket and walk away. I had to walk like maybe 15 steps before it alerted me.

This part is very low tech.
When you have the pen in the device, it pushes a switch inside the phone.
If you pull the pen out (i.e. the switch is opened), and you wander off (it detects this using the same gyrometers you use to play 'tilt' games), then it sets off the alert.
You have to enable the s-pen alert, and the screen has to be off when you wander away.
It's designed that way so it's not constantly going off when you are actually using the s-pen.
the pen itself is a wacom pen. wacom tablets have been around for ages.
It receives power kind of the same way some electric toothbrushes charge - through magnetic resonance.

This. Samsung seems to be uing the Wacom principle. Ill hve to take my pen in and test it.
I still am not able to replicate it. S-pen settings look alright.
Hi, I've had my galaxy note 2 for about a month now and I absolutely love it. I love the fact where I can pull out the S-Pen and take a note. The problem I'm facing is that on the left side of the screen towords the bottom it seems to be off when I write. Wherever I write in that section it seems to write it to the right of where my pen is touching the screen. Take a look at the attached picture.
Now I've google searched if there is a method to calibrate the S Pen. But the only thing I seem to find is a method that works with the original Galaxy Note 1. And I have also come across an app called TouchscreenTune that helps you calibrate the S-Pen. But as far as I know this app calibrates the S Pen for the entire screen. For example if I calibrate the S Pen with this application and make it so it writes to the left instead of how it's off by going to the right it will do that for the entire screen. I'm only having this issue at that 1 section of the screen. Can anybody help me out please?

Same issue
I don't have any solutions, but I can confirm that I'm having the same issue. It happens in a few places, but all of them are towards the edge fo the screen. I noticed it trying to make a line with a straight edge in sketchbook mobile, which this makes it impossible to do. Similarly, I've searched and can't find any suggestions on calibration. I'll take it to a sprint store in a few days.
I will be interested in hearing what they say. Im having the same problem.

Thanks for the comment. Just to make sure, when you write a bunch in that bottom left area, there's no interuptions in the inking or it's hard to write because the cursor doesn't stay centered?
I'm trying to figure out if this is something all of them have that's just too minor for most people to notice or there's just a few bad apples. I'll be at verizon tomorrow testing out some other note 2s and see if I see a pattern. If not, I'll just return.

Glad yours works. That code doesn't work for me. I'm on a verizon phone which means they probably jacked that up too along with everything else.
Interesting development today.
Exchanged my phone to verizon. Was really excited the new one was working so well. Went home and it started to do it again. Got real up set and then light bulb popped up. There's a magnet on the back of my seidio kickstand case. Took the case off and now it works fine. Which means the other one probably worked fine as well. Annoyed that I spent $50 on this stupid case.

Yeah, you should never use any kind of case with magnets with a phone with a Wacom digitizer.
It's really a shame, otherwise I would've bought the KLD Ultra Slim PU Leather Flip Cover Case already.
Hi, sorry for the late response. But i went to Best Buy and tried another S-Pen and with the S-Pen it does the same thing. It weird, When i right the actual ink is not under where my pen is, its more to the right of it. Even if i hover the S-Pen over the screen the little circle thing is also off to the right abit. I tried to use that TouchScreen Tune app, but when i apply the changes in it, it says Failed< Unsupported ROM or FW. I use the S-Pen alot, and it sucks because of this inconvenience.
Oh and i can confirm that the App posted in that Link "Reset S-Pen" Does NOT work to fix this issue. I wish it was just the S-Pen that was defective. I have no problem going to Best Buy and buying a new one for $40.
My s pen accuracy improved when I did what another forum suggested. Go into pen settings, and switch it to left handed, and then back to right handed. That resets the calibration.

Wouldn't that be amazing? A headset that you are less likely to loose, it will always be there fully charged when you need it and tucked away when you don't.

No thanks. The s-pen is not a stylus, it is a piece of technology allowing for precise actions a stylus could never achieve.
Being able to see what I am about to touch, exactly, before I touch it makes working with cad documents so much easier.
The s-pen was a majority of my decision to get the note 2.

Didn't the last Asus Padphone have a stylus that was also a bluetooth headset? I remember the CEO on stage during the announcement making a big deal about it.
So maybe the OP can have his cake and eat it too. Stylus and headset all in one.
EDIT: Yup, here it is.
http://www.asus.com/sg/Tablet_Mobile_Accessories/PadFone_Stylus_Headset
Don't think this exists, but sure would be cool.
A stylus that fits in the stylus slot on my note 3 that is also a bluetooth cordless headset thingy.
I purchased a Fosmon mini bluetooth keyboard (and love it). I am thinking about getting one of those lemon extended batteries and building a special mount that will attach the keyboard and the note 3 together and make it more like a handheld gaming console/laptop. While it wouldn't be permanent, it would make phone calls awkward while in use. If I could pull the stylus out and use it to talk ... that would be premo!
Any thoughts?

I'm sure Samsung could do the same if they wanted, and given that more and more tablets are getting cellular abilities, I could see them doing something like that. It's unlikely that an accessory manufacturer would undertake this though.. There just isn't the demand I think.

Samsung HAS made one which I have. Have no idea pf model # ect...but google it and I'm sure you will find one. about 100$. Useless though unless you want to look foolish/silly/.....
It does work as advertised, though.

I have actually found a stylus pen that is a handset as well. I'm looking for a replacement for the stock stylus, one that fits in the slot, and is being charged while in the slot. These are all things that only Samsung could do unless you did some kind of wireless charging setup.
Adding an external battery is going to make it just the right size where getting it in and out of pockets will be a pain. It's already close enough for me! So I get the watch, it acts as caller ID, and if it is a call I want to take, I can just slide the stylus out of the device without taking it out of my pocket.
Adding another pen/stylus/bluetooth handset is just adding another part to the mix. Another device to charge, protect, keep track of. Of course you forget it your whole setup is useless.
