I don’t know if you guys have seen this kickstarter, but it’s a really sleek little USB OTG microSD card reader. I’ve always wanted a nicer looking solution than the dongle and this seems to be it. Who needs removeable storage on our HTC Ones?
Take a look:

UPDATE: **** should have looked, this was a few threads down. Sorry.
Thank you !

It's...perfect. I can't believe I couldn't buy anything like this before. I mean, MicroUSB, MicroSD, no one ever bothered to combine the two into a retail product before? It's not like the Nexus trend of no dedicated MicroSD slot just happened last month.
I got one of these a few days ago. Can't wait! Something to one-up this, would be something that someone in another thread suggested; a protective case that plugs into the micro USB port and has a microSD slot on it. I think an even better option than that though, would be having a microSD slot built into a protective battery case, such as the Mophie Juice Pack.

Reached last stretch goal--"add two new color options. One is Metallic Silver -- for those who crave for an aluminum build but we couldn't deliver due to manufacturing difficulty. It is not quite as nice, but at least looks alike -- hey, even for a BMW, there is plastic under its metallic silver finish. The other color is bright vibrant Orange -- for those who like to have a little more color in life. You will be asked to choose your color or colors once the funding is closed."

I'm down to do all that. I need to look at the case and an microsd adapter. I have a couple of ideas of how to pull it all off. I actually might try to make a prototype using some other cases if I can find some cheap parts.

I searched on here already, but couldn't find anything about this.
I'm looking for a dock I could use with a silicone or tpu case (not a folio). I have a cheap 'universal' eBay one for my S3, but obviously it's a bit more complicated with the Note's proprietary charger.
Does anyone know of anything? I'd be fine with a stand that holds it up high enough off a table top to plug a normal charger in as well.
I found these two on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004NFNQWM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A6U7LGCOJZZG2
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003QCOKGO/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
I think this might be a better solution than a regular dock.
Any other suggestions would be welcomed!

Here are a few that may work for you, remember you can rotate the note 10.1 180 degrees and have the plug at the top and the screen will rotate for viewing.

I've seen a bunch of threads regarding that the Lifeproof cases aren't out yet... But on eBay there are a few cases for sale. I'm guessing these are fake but the pictures look pretty legit. Any experience with these? I'm still new so I can't post links but if you type in "S3 Lifeproof" on eBay it should pop up.

I was about to start a thread and remembered there already was one. So since this thread I've noticed a large increase in the number of fake lifeproof's, I'm assuming some company in china got the specs and started making replicas. Looks like the prices are in the $40 to $50 range, so who's going to be the guinea pig and buy one? Part of me wants to try it since the real lifeproof cases cost $80, but another part of me thinks that its stupid to spend $50 on something that could be complete crap. Especially if it ships from china or hong kong, if I don't like it I'd have to pay the shipping all the way back. Plus I'd have to wait 3 weeks just to get it and possibly another 3 weeks to get the refund........
Anybody want to sponsor me? I'll put a big pictorial and detailed review?:laugh:
LifeProof
I'll be ordering one from a US Seller for a slightly higher markup. I can post a video review on Youtube, and here as well. I'll get it some time next week, as I'll probably order it with my birthday money or when my paycheck comes in. And hey, if you want to push $5 towards the cause, I wouldn't be opposed They look exactly like the iPhone version, even down to the packaging and colors available. one seller even mentioned that they aren't LifeProof branded, but had a 1 month return/refund/warrenty. In addition, Paypal and my bank offer a certain amount of time to make sure a product actually works (3 or 6 months, I think). I'm game for giving it a shot!
I imagine that the install would be the same as for an iPhone... and I'd want to check the seals BEFORE installing my phone... that'd be really sad.
Found it but it's not on lifeproof website.

Right, that's the whole point of this entire thread. These are FAKE or replicas or whatever you want to call them, that's why this thread got started. That's why they only cost $40 to $50 dollars. That's why some of them are from CHINA. I think I'll probably end up buying one of these once I find a white one that's being sold here in the US. I know they all are probably being made in the same place in Hong Kong or somewhere but I don't see any reason to order something and wait for a month for it to get here.

I have the fake case. It is great. The only gripe i have is when I hold it and rest my pinky on the bottom, the metal part is sharp, and it hurts.
I'm really surprised that I haven't seen anyone mention anything about this fantastic case!!
I've had one, maybe two, of these cases previously for other phones. It was a few years back, and don't really remember how I liked them. But, they have been selling them for years now, and for most major phones, so I figure they were doing well. I had been through page after page looking for a case that caught my eye. I never could really find anything that suited me, and was about to settle on the official Google (non-flip) case. Somehow, I came upon the Incipio website and found the dual pro. Went ahead and took the plunge on the blue/dark grey version.. I COULD'NT BE HAPPIER!!
Seriously, this has to be one of the best three cases out for this phone; and, in my opinion, it is the best one out. I also have the .13mm Mime glass screen protector; it fits like a charm and has no peeling issues. The "lip" of the inner silicone part of the case actually goes over the edges of the screen protector. Almost as to "protect" it from chipping/peeling.
Does anyone else have this case? If so, what do you think about it? I might can find a camera to put some pictures up if anyone is interested.

+1 on Meenova Card Reader. Very very handy for me especially when flashing ROMs where I can easily backup my data and with the included Adaptor I can easily copy files from my laptop on the go. I also like the LED indicator to show data transfer. Its cheap and build quality is exceptional.
