No, basically the moto laptop dock is just a lcd screen and keyboard and it uses your phone as the cpu, ram, ext. What you can do is get the media dock a bt keyboard and mouse and use your tv like the laptop dock though.

EBay sells cheap stylus for iPhone which is the same type of screen I believe. I have one for my evo but they aren't as easy to use as the old plastic Windows mobile stylus.

Yeah you need a capacitive stylus.

@sand1303 is it because of the stylus or the software?

Stylus

It hasn't really caught on because the digitizers on capacitive screens aren't as precise as on resistive screens--you won't get the same precision.

It will work, I'm just saying that the benefits of a stylus on a capacitive screen aren't nearly as good. You can draw or write with it, but you won't get that single-pixel precision like you would with a resistive screen.
That's interesting.. thanx all..
Anybody suggest a good app and good stylus?

You can't use a regular plastic tipped stylus pen because it doesn't conduct electricity or something. You need a capacitive stylus like Dagi, Pogo, or Griffin.
Here is a basic review of the 3 popular stylus brand:

I use Sketchbook Mobile for a drawing app. For writing, I don't know, I just use swype. Maybe someone else can recommend a writing app.

Yeah, well, I'll deal with that when the time comes. Right now I'm having trouble pairing them when I lean the NC against the side of the PS3. Anyone out there gotten farther than me?

LMAO Is it really 6 inches? I've been planning on doing this too so I could get rid of the 2nd keyboard but oh well. There goes that.

I am wondering if I could cast the screen to my android tablet

As the topic, is there even a way to use the touch panel from the tablet

Using Bluetooth mouse on Xoom

Is it possible to use a Bluetooth mouse on a Motorola Xoom II, although the Xoom hasn't got a cursor is it possible
Thanks
Sent from my XOOM 2 using xda premium
Not sure about a mouse but...
I have a Stingray that ran stock ICS 4.0.4 and now is rooted with CM 10.0.0 with JB 4.1.2.
For the last 2 years, I've used an "Apple Magic Trackpad" as a mouse. Finger movement on the Trackpad causes a blue "halo" to appear on the Xoom screen. I also use an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard.
Now, there may be other options but Apple was the only "Bluetooth" input devices when I was looking.

As long as it has anything above android 3.2 it should work.

you can enable pointer location in developer options too.
or even use Droidmote on your touchscreen phone and use that as a mousepad

Absolutely! Moto made their own even and they're really very good. You can buy just the keyboard and mouse together or they do a work and play kit that includes a dock with 3 USB ports, analogue audio out and mini HDMI plus your HDMI cable, a high power adaptor the keyboard and the mouse. The cursor appears once the mouse is active.
Good post. I forgot Moto had their own kit.

What physical keyboard do you use and why?

I searched back a few months and didn't find to much about people recommending a good keyboard.
So...
Pretty simple what do you use, why and would you recommend it?
Also, I came across this. Do any of you have any information on it?
Google Keyboard. The latest update adds a lot of additional settings; it's fast, free, accurate, and of course from Google! Couldn't ask for much else in a good keyboard.

Like a physical keyboard or app.
Physical keyboard I use a logitech one
Ass for the App I switch of between swype and swiftkey. I like how you can use extensions on swype compared to swiftkey, but I like the accuracy on swiftkey better and the merging of the lanuage into one instead of separate like in swype
My bad, I meant a physical keyboard
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I've been using SwiftKey on both phone and tablet, but the poor accuracy on my phone has been annoying lately.

Apple bluetooth keyboard. Extremely light so it's easy to carry, keys feel great, pairs in seconds.

That's my experience as well. It works a lot better on the tablet then on the phone. Probably the keys are to small on the phone...

I use Switkey for the soft keyboard across all devices. For my N10's physical, I use

The keyboard's removable and held in via magnets, and works beautifully

I have that case/keyboard as well. Its a steal for a case and keyboard combothis inexpensive.
I use the HP Touchpad Bluetooth keyboard and gotta recommend it, great shape, nice keys and pretty cheap (I gave £25 for it but seen them just now for £15 on eBay). There are 2 models UK and US spec. Oh and I've had the batteries in there since January so it's all good from my point of view.

I got a Motorola Xoom keyboard off eBay and its been great. Light and almost full size. For some odd reason 2 fun keys are off but for $15 I won't complain.

The HP Touchpad's keyboard really is amazingly good. It's in the same class as the Apple Bluetooth Keyboard in my opinion, and usually a fair bit cheaper. The keys do feel a like they have a tad more "friction" though on the travel.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there also a keyboard/trackpad variant of that keyboard? It looks like it would be an amazing complement to an Android tablet.
As for the Moko case users, they're good (had one on my Galaxy Tab), but I never could get behind the weirdly tiny keys near the spacebar/bad travel, even in such a thin case.
