Hopefully by tomorrow someone should start releasing a official case.

Somebody in a thread over at xda said the ASUS case is a smart case. So I think it will have the magnet. I'm going to order one when they are available.

Asus produced the tablet for Google so hopefully they already have them made. Releasing the cases now before anyone does gives them the upper hand in sales.

Lets just hope a few new colors come out in the next few weeks.

Im pumped for these cases. I complained awhile back when i had a gtab 10.1 All the cases were leather and had no youth to them. So far this tablet has hit all my marks.

I'm hoping these are released soon. I am holding back on buying any other 3rd party case because they all seem so clunky.

Does this cover has a stand function?

When it comes to cases I'll rather wait because I made the mistake of buying the Xoom with moto's case on release day and what a mistake it was!
Now every device I get I wait to see some reviews on cases before buying one...

Wonder how long Asus will take to release these.

Over on reddit looks like someone got theirs. Doesn't seem to be a smart case.

Got mine today: The case isn't "smart", the cable is hilariously short, and ask me anything else : Nexus7

Just a heads up, got my 16GB today with case, and I'm not too impressed. I don't think the magnet feature is present in this case and it seems like i can still manipulate the screen with the screen covered. Not sure I'm liking it. Also, no stand function. Hope that helps.

Hoping those Asus covers are released real soon. Hope to get one that folds into a stand, like the one I have for the TouchPad.

Yea I don't think the one they are selling on the play store is the same as the ones Asus announced, but Asus really needs to get on selling those things. My new Nexus7 is way to pretty for anything to happen to it :-\

 

[Poohatur]

Seriously. I've only played with my new toy for a day and I feel like I can't take it out into the wild without some protection

Definately don't bother with the ASUS case (from the play store). No stand, no smart magnet feature, and it activates the touchscreen. Damn thing flipped at least 30 pages on the kindle book I was reading when I set it down for a minute or so. Thank god I wasn't in the email app or something where it could do some real damage.

Yeah I'm waiting for the Asus ones (the ones they tweeted a pic of), preferably in orange.

I really want a case, but the ones I've seen are all hideous. So far I've just ordered a sleeve and a screen protector from Amazon so I don't leave this tablet completely vulnerable. I hope that whenever these cases come out, they'll be thin enough to fit into the sleeve because I wanna be able to carry it in my backpack without worrying (and just the case kinda worries me):-\.

EDIT: Asus would be really smart to release the cases soon. Most of the people who ordered a Nexus 7 would be interested in that case, they could be losing tons of money by waiting because other companies will start making more cases.

Also I found this: Amazon.com: i-Blason Auto Sleep / Wake Google Nexus 7 Inch Tablet PC Slim folio Case With Built in Stand Hard Back Cover 8GB 16GB ((Orange): Electronics

But I don't think it's legit. I mean the fact that there's a hole for a camera in the back tells me it's just a generic 7 inch tablet device. It looks nice, but I'm gonna just wait for the Asus one.

 

[dpridgen]

Trust me on this, you do not want the Asus one. See my earlier post.
