Don't know of any stores in SA as I am in Australia, but if you vote on the link specified in this thread;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051130
then Casemate may decide to make the case and you could then order it online
I had a xoom and sold it for the tab, The tab fits in xoom case i have, the camera cutouts on the back are wrong but at least its protected.
This is the case i have.

I have the same issue. Samsung South Africa dont even have the device yet. They are expecting it this month.
In terms of accessories, i have also looked around like a nutter, and i cant find anything.
An Incredible corruptions store in Eastgate said they should be getting this week. I will be checking tomorrow as its Friday.
Thanks, still no luck. Phoned Vodashop vodaworld again today,still nothing. Let me know about eastgate.

mine came with a case and it's pretty awesome, better than any aftermarket case that i've seen
Any of you guys from SA find a case???
I've had my tab for 3 weeks now and I still can't find anything. Got some family in the UK - seriously thinking about getting a few from ebay.co.uk and getting them shipped here.
Hi guys,
It fits in an Ipad 1 case. Needs cutouts for power and camera though.

Still no luck for me, Vodaphone shop said they would contact me when they do arrive. Very frustrating, they never seem to get it right in SA.
Saw a tweet from Samsungmobilesa that vodashop's should have accesories available mid June.

Did a few stops today while I was out; IC Eastgate say they will get stock next week, IC Greenstone say they have no clue when stock is arriving. So I popped in at Vodaworld; The Vodashop recons 4 - 6 weeks until they expect stock and the Samsung Mobile guys say that they have yet to get their hands on the device never mind the accessories....
have2have has got a cover listed for around R320. Only thing is that there is 7 - 14 days for delivery... placed the order and now I wait

Cant post a link... something about I haven't done enough posts ... go to have2have.co.za and do a product search for "P7100"
So far the service has been awesome. They email you every step of the order; I know that the package is now waiting to go to Washington Dulles Airport as soon as they finish the customs paperwork...
I had just made an order on ebay for a case....
Will update when it reaches...
Some cool cases that I come across too in China, but no idea on quality.
At least it is made specifically for the 10.1v!

Let us know how it is please
Yes please do let us know!
Also in SA, and have been searching for a case since I got the tab 10.1v.
But now since Vodafone has dropped/discontinued the V version, i'm a sad panda because it means that 10.1V accessories (or at least a case) will be VERY rare...
so if we can get at least 1 good case somewhere it will help us early adopters a lot
looking forward to your feedback (and thanks all for the links so far!)
ok, seeing as no one has either received their imported cases yet, or no one actually cares to reply... heres an update after we did some research the last couple of days.
(also posted on AndroidZA)
decided to import a case, seeing that it is pretty much the only option...
Apart from the importing fact, we also have just about 2 options of cases
I settled on this one from amazon uk : goo.gl/mbHcJ
They estimate about 3 weeks for delivery so we'll see... at least its quite cheap (though shipping isnt...)
Saw that Have2Have advertises a similar case (goo.gl/3bboh), but called them and their US supplier doesnt have stock, so thats a fail.
But here is another viable option, though it is VERY expensive, but looks gooood...
goo.gl/TjDtg
hope it helps someone. i'll update once i get that case.
[edit: sorry about the links, cannot post links yet apparently - so just copy & paste the goo.gl links into the browser]
case from ebay...
hey people,
the case i had ordered from ebay arrived and here are pictures of it.
fits the ports really well, meaning that i can use all my ports.
microfiber material but feels not as nice as the apple one.
am quite happy even though it is a little loose (due to the material being slightly stretchable). can stand too!
pictures!

Thanks, how much did it cost, and when did you you order it? It looks decent enough and we cant really afford to complain, except for the fact that I really would like a screenguard for the tablet as well.
Here it is, a great deal found just today:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/OtterBo...ategoryId=pcmcat171900050029&id=1218312986856
Add it to your cart, it shows up as $3.75 with free shipping.
The offer is still available as of nov 13 12:12am. im ordering mine right now, dont even need it but its a good deal.

Yep, just ordered one (10:00am EST). I had a TPU case that cost me about $4, so I thought it's time to upgrade. Thanks for the deal, OP!

It's a killer case at an even better price. I do my best to find the cheapest anything on the internet... I haven't paid full price for anything in years.
Thanks for the heads-up on the Otterbox deal. I just bought an Atrix 4G and all i found locally was a Incipio clip-around with little shock protection. I'm gonna return that when the Otterbox arrives.

Thanks Treehumper just ordered mine too. I'm broke as hell this week but I can afford 4 bucks! lol Thanks!
I got one as of 6:28 PM PST. Thanks so much OP! It was $4.05 with sales tax.
Just a warning to those looking to buy this:
I was wondering why it was so cheap because most otterbox's cost around $20+. This is the silicone one and apparently it has gotten mediocre rating at best. Here's the amazon reviews for it:
http://www.amazon.com/OtterBox-Impa...iewpoints=1&sortBy=bySubmissionDateDescending
Shame. I bought a hard case off of the bay as a bundle package it broke on me the first week. Ordered a silicone one off the bay from Hong Kong since I usually have better luck with silicone ones. Don't know why many people state the silicone Otterbox attracts a lot of dust/lint, I have never experienced that from any of my other cases.
Mine hasn't given me any trouble. I also know that Best Buy is attempting to liquidate stock on EOL phones and their accessories.
Just ordered one
Deal alive again !!
Just ordered 2 of them!!! 1 for me and the other for a Christmas gift to a buddy! WOOT!!!!

Is it just me or are your orders not shipped yet?
I see "1 item(s) - order at warehouse in process of shipping" on my order status page. It's been like that for six days, which is quite strange for a large retailer like Best Buy.
Mine showed up 5 days after I ordered it.

This will probably be my last update to this thread, however, because I am selling my Kindle Fire today and decided to get a different tablet. Love the fire, but I'm trying to restrict myself to one tablet at a time.

Additionally, if you're looking for some screen protectors, this is the cheapest I've seen from this company:
http://dealnews.com/Clear-Screen-Protector-for-Kindle-Fire-3-Pack-for-4-free-shipping-via-Prime/530978.html
It's a 3-pack for ~$4. With a case I don't feel a big need for a screen protector, but if you do, this is the cheapest I've seen.

I saw this deal and thought I'd post it here in case anyone is interested and missed it. I don't have this case, so I can't speak for quality, but it looks quite nice - better than many of the other cases I've seen.

The coupon code for this deal is only valid today. The coupon code lowers the price by $13.
I actually ordered this case last Thursday and I got it today in the mail. It looks really nice and works really well. It also costs about half as much as some of the other ones I've seen. Thank you so much for posting!
Just ordered the newer case you posted. Thanks for the link. $8.24 + $4.50 shipping and it looks a lot better than the alternatives I was considering in the price range.

I'll add my voice as well: thanks for the tip, got mine yesterday and it's a very nice case for under $10. I like it much better than the Belkin I got for $30. and returned to Amazon.
Nice to hear some good feedback on these cases. I'm not sure if I'll keep updating the original post as more deals come out, but I recommend checking dealnews.com if people are still looking for deals on this case or other Fire cases. It seems they list one on sale every other day or so.
A version of this case is on sale again. I'm starting to think Acase should send me a free one of these for keep this thread going for them...
Got mine today. I like it a lot, although I wonder how long the inner corners will hold up if you put it into the stand mode often......all in all though, a nice feeling case..
Ordered mine last night. Can't wait for it to come in.

I emailed ZAGG today asking for an ETA on their screen protector for our wonderful new Nexus 7's. I happily received an email stating that they have indeed made one, though by guessing the shipping date, they're not actually fully produced or something to that effect. Anyway, I figured I would share links for everyone, just got my ASUS branded one, but will probably be replacing it with one of these. Enjoy!

I guess I wrote them too early. On Monday I got an e-mail from them saying that they didn't have one in the works, but "keep an eye on Zagg.com" for a possible future relase.

Hello all,
So, long story short, err shorter; When I purchased my Nexus 5 I was extremely eager to get a case so I wouldn't shatter my new baby, so I ordered the Spigen Neo Hybrid case off Amazon in satin silver color.
Due to what I guess was a "Logistical Error" on Amazon's part, my case was supposed to have a guaranteed delivery date of 12/12 with Prime 2-day shipping, but hadn't even left Amazon's warehouse by then. Amazon refunded my first order, so I ordered another identical case...but the weekend was upon us & my impatience led me to up buy one locally.
Incidentally, both cases from Amazon eventually arrived.
Soooo, i'm giving both of these new cases away to 2 XDA members!
There's no signup or other BS, all you have to do is reply to this thread.
It's completely free, i'm even covering the shipping costs via USPS
This drawing is open to all members of the free world (sorry North Korea)
I'll draw 2 XDA member names from a random "hat pick" app on 12/25.
So just reply to this thread to get your name entered, i'll announce the winners on 12/25 & PM them for shipping info.
