Case for Samsung galaxy tab 2 10"

Hi can anyone recommend a case for Samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 I have been reading some reviews but some cases don't seam compatible. Plus is there a keyboard that will attach to this tablet.

    From what OH tells me, there are different model numbers which correspond to different locations for the cameras. Santa tells me I'm getting a P5110 so I'm getting http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271067394235?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

    Keyboards - Samsung do one. You slot the tab into it and it holds it up like a laptop screen. Pass through connector for power etc.
    Or there are generic bluetooth keyboards widely available.
  • I got one of these for my Tab2 10.1" - it's a bit of a tight squeeze but it's pretty solid and gives good protection. It has gone up since I got mine though.

    Can this case be only used in stand mode or can you use it flat on its back.

    I have noticed a few saying its a tight squeeze but I assume it fits properly

    It doesn't flip right back on itself so to use it flat on it's back means it's open at 180 degrees (imagine a book opened perfectly evenly) so if sitting on a sofa I tend to use the tablet upside down with the flap at the top - as the tablet screen rotates it's no problem.

    There are about 3 stand angle options which is quite handy if sitting it on a desk to view like a TV screen.

    I also got a rubbery gel case to give the tablet a bit more grip and protection if I don't want it in the folio case. I found a chinese ebayer selling a decent fitting black case for a few £££'s and 1 week delivery LINK for Tab2 10.1

    I've got a Samsung Note 10.1 and I bought a nice leather case

    http://www.gearzap.com/zenus-masstige-leather-galaxy-note-10-1-black-lettering.html

    It's an excellent case but being leather is a little bulky. I have since bought the official Samsung case, or rather book cover as Samsung call it. It's not as bulky and I like it better than the first one I bought. Be aware that the Tab and the note look the same but are not the same size so you need the right case.
    One by one the penguins are slowly stealing my sanity.
