I look forward to this with great anticipation. The build quality looks to be 1st class, which is a nice change.

To all that have been waiting.
A limited number of the adapters with the stainless steel cover can be purchased here. http://www.remotefactory.com/cravesone.html

The version with the stainless steel cover is just under the Blackberry storm adapter.

The Stainless steel is the only one available today but a Painted black will be available in a few days.
Attachment 2989

Thank you all for waiting, I had so much trouble with the metal cover manufacturer.

There are only a limited number available now but I will make more if they all sell out.

thanks

No you can not use the car mount with the adapter.

If enough people want this in the future I will make a adapter for the car mount to allow the bottom part of the current car mount to work with a new holder half. I gave this some thought since I do not use the current car mount and woud possibly want to mount the N810 near the future.

Thanks

Thanks for the great work!

The tablet is my main media center for my car. I use the original car mount... will the stain steel metal cover 'work' with the car mount?

Great work! You haven't posted the "hackers" version yet, have you (I couldn't find it)?

I did see the hackers version of the blackberry storm -- looks very good!

You quoted the answer to this question in your own post: no.

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 
The post that I quoted refers to the Mugen cover which is almost twice as thick as the one that is currently being sold.
I wanted to know if it works with the slimmer one - I guess you say it does not.

Thanks.

Just ordered my 2.

Thanks

Just ordered one myself!

Thanks, as well. It's just what I need to avoid a lot of "card shuffling" :)

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 
I must say it again, now that the metal cover and adapter kit is ready and selling the metal cover will not fit the extended Mugen battery. The Mugen batteries requires a cover that is over 7mm thick. My cover is 4.7mm total.

The adapter with the metal cover can be purchased here http://www.remotefactory.com/cravesone.html
thanks

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 
Dude, I like the mod, but you really need a cover that fits the Mugen extended battery. It's kinda pointless (at least for me) to have to choose between either using the extended mugen battery (and it's sucky plastic cover, ugh) *or* using this mod and being forced back to the regular battery. I want the strength of the stainless steel cover, I want the mod, *AND* I want the mugen battery. So we need a stainless steel cover that's deep enough to cover both. You really ought to consider selling a stand alone stainless steel cover (or have it as an option on the existing kit) for those who have the Mugen extended batteries, *and* your mod. I know I'd snatch one up if you offered it.

I know how many Mugen battries that was sold for the N810 tablet. It was not enough to pay for the expense of the setup cost of a thicker metal cover.

There are already many people who are using the Mugen extended battery that already purchased the adapter without the metal cover.
http://www.remotefactory.com/32gbn810sd.html They have to use the plastic cover. Also if I sell enough of these kits I will consider making a thicker cover but so far it has cost me more than I expect to get back.
So anyone who wants one should buy as soon as possible there is a limited quantity of these metal covers. If I do not recover the cost I will move to my next project.

Thanks

Attachment 3001
There will only be about 100 Black covers since I hear that the WiMax version is on its way out. The Stainless Steel will still be available but also in limited quantities for now.

Thanks

Don't know if this has been written in this thread. Instead of adding a SD reader, would it be possible to add a HSPDA/EDGE card in its place?

wowza thats expensive. Do you know if it will get any cheaper over time?

Chester - You never sent me a black cover to evaluate:(

However, I would still like to order one of your kits with the black cover. but....i want a spare black cover, so how much for a sd card kit with two black covers instead of one???

Thanks in advance.

Exactly, for the time and effort put into this, I think it's a great deal.

Ya know, if I had the cad drawings, well, the drawings for the 7mm one that's deep enough to support the Mugen battery, I could just take it to a local metal shop and have them stamp me one if it's too expensive for you to do it. All I'd need is just the cad files.

The postal service in my country has not worked much during the last week of 2008 and the first week of 2009. Delays are expected. YMMV, but these were announced elsewhere throughout the world as well, at all kind and types of corporations.

Its Comming, I am at the CES show and will be back on Monday. I still want you to eval for me with the photos.

I am not selling these by the thousands I am just making a few for those who want more functionality out of the tablet. If I sell enough to cover the cost of the metal cover I would be surprised but I wanted to do this anyway. The metal cover opens up the tablet for many other addons. To me the tablet with a 8GB or 16GB micro SD or 8GB Mini SD card was not acceptable. Especially with the problem I have had with micro SD cards failing on me. They are too expensive for the amount of memory you get. I have found out many things about the tablet since I started this project and will continue to develop things for it and other devices. As you probably know I have already used the hackers card in the Black Berry Storm to install a hacked 32GB card in it. The Storm and the N7810 is now great for work and travel.

I also had my partner send me a MintPAD from South Korea. If we could make a user interface like this for say a media player it would be great. This thing only comes in a Korean language version but every one who sees it wants one. I even gave one to a 62 year old friend. I also had to get one for my 2 daughters. It is insane and I will pursue what it takes to make software like this for the N810. Everywhere I went at the CES show I was stopped and asked "what is that?". The exhibitors stop talking about their product to see how it worked.

For those who are waiting, the hackers version along with many other versions of adapters will be at the site on Tuesday.

There are people making their own hack now such as 3G who just need the cover. I will also make them available when I see how many is wanted.

I just want to say thanks to all that have already purchased one and for those who have not, the quantities are limited.

I received the kit today. The stainless steel back looks and fits great. One glitch I ran into was the T-5 torx driver included is too large. I'm trying to track down a T-4 to check, but they aren't readily available.

Craves (or anyone else), can you confirm the size of the torx screws on the n810?

Burnin TODI 2009-01-13 07:50

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 
The torx included with mine was too large for my N810 as well...otherwise all looks great. The cover is very well machined and fits perfectly.

macit 2009-01-13 07:59

After reading this I decided to check the shippment of Torx screw drivers and there are a few that do not fit. It seems the manufacturer did not make them properly. The size is T-5 not T-4.

Send me a email with your address to cgraves256@optonline.net and I will send you one that fits.

Also some kits was shipped out without instruction sheets (about 10 kits) if this is the case for anyone send me a email and I will email a PDF file of the instructions.

Thanks again for the purchase

The screw driver should be T-5 but it seems the manufacturer did not make all of them the same or they have T-6 mixed in with the shipment. Send me you address and I will send you a replacement.

The driver I received is stamped T-5 on the shaft, but it doesn't fit the screws. I think I have a T-6 at home somewhere to compare it against. I can't get a T-4 locally.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks, just e-mailed you.

When I was home at lunch I checked the T-5 I received from you against a T-6 I already had, and they seem to match. So I guess it's mis-labeled.

I'd be happy to send the first one back if you like. Just let me know.

Thanks again for following up on this.

Got mine today, didn't have instructions enclosed but it was very easy to fit.

This is a really nice peice of kit, and very well made.

Thanks for producing it, I am very happy with it :D

Re: 32GB SD adapter For N810
 
I don't know how or why but I busted the screw head and the screw could not come out.

Anyway, I just glued the SDHC holder in and re-installed my 8G microSDC back with an adapter and the N810 worked perfectly!

Thanks craves1!

Thats a first. I have not had any other reports about getting the screw out. Glad you like it.

Thanks for making this product available....have it up and running!

NOTE: my N810 did need a T-4 torx and not a T-5, just in case others are having problems with theirs.

Thanks again
