Yes, it came in the box with the Costco package. It makes it easier to hold the Unit.

Yeah, I got mine from Costco with this case also. It's ok, but I hate cases in general and this one was no different. The way it holds the tablet allows it to slide down a bit which causes the front camera to not be aligned with the hole. Not a big deal but just one of those annoyances that comes with using a case. I prefer to use a stand to hold my tablet while using a keyboard and mouse. Otherwise I like my tablet bare. I did do a lot of shopping around for cases and stands and wasn't impressed with the case selections. Good thing I don't like them...

Yeah I'm seriously looking for some kind of protection cause I cracked the back of it on accident. I had to send it in. If that's the case if rather get something else

The case I'd okay, it stretchs over time and the a let slides around inside. I bought one and its cheaply made

I bought the roocase that doubles as stand. It looks good as far as I'm concerned and works well.

I bought that case the day after Thanksgiving. I also have the Targus case that I bought in July with the tablet. The Targus is better for sitting on a table as it allows for more variation of position, however it is much heavier and bulkier. The Acer is the case I use the most. It is especially better if you want to hold the tablet in your hands. As someone else said, it does have a tendency to slide down and partially block the front camera, but you can easily slide it back up. However, what hasn't yet been mentioned in this thread is that it also covers the microphone which is located at the top center where the screen meets the bezel. I cut out a section to expose the microphone. Of course, that is right where the velcro tab to hold the cover closed is/was located. I got some small velcro tabs at Wal-Mart and put one right above each upper corner of the screen.

Bought a similar one at target and this at bb the bb one is sturdier but thicker and easier to remove the tab from.

Don't buy that case it's junk! Get the nice leather/felt case/stand at Best Buy. It's about the same price if not cheaper and it's a heck of a lot better!

**Ronnie2** · 12-23-2011, 08:37 AM

Ya its not that good of a case...but it came included with the 8gb A500 I bought online so I can't really complain. I can't believe they charge $40 for it though.

**scarryman04** · 12-23-2011, 03:21 PM

yeah i paid $40 and its ok from keeping it from getting scratched and the stand position is pretty nice but doesnt really protect it...

**AndroidXTC** · 12-23-2011, 04:46 PM

The case came with mine also I don't like it much it also has a funny smell to it. I purchased a leather one off of ebay that I like much better it does make the unit a little bulky but I still like it alot. Here is the link to the seller. Yes its only $11

I can smell it 5 feet away it stinks like rubber.

I purchased the acer case with my A500 and it tore when I was trying to put the tablet in it. I returned it because its NOT worth 40.00. I purchased the rooCase from overstock. com (link below) and love it. Its a little bulky but not near as bad as the targus case and its way more secure.

I bought the $10 Sheath Portfolio cover on Amazon.com, and it is awesome. It is very sturdy with quality construction. I think I'll be using it for a long time.

For $5 shipped, how could anyone go wrong!

I bought that case for 1.31. The next day, they dropped it to 1 cent. Lol. I'm going to try it out and if I don't like it, I'm going to get that roocase.
