Vega accessories

The advent10 code works on PCworld as well. If you are having problems with the stand make sure you aren't just trying to use the normal clasp to keep it open the stand function needs the long piece of fabric above the pocket to work properly. Although I sometimes like it sitting up a bit higher so I occasionally use the normal one.

Well I have today received one of the screen protectors ordered and have noticed a small dent type crease about 1cm long. I did think about saying sod it fitting it but deep down I know it wouldn’t look right and just p%$s me off so I have emailed PCWorld to see about exchanging it.

The problem is that there is a decent size mark on the card sleeve which it came in (but not the postage packaging) so it obviously it was not checked before being sent. Just wonder how long this process will now take.

Hi,

Very happy with the case. Unfortuantely the pin stripe lining is coming away at the spine inside. Do you know when these will be in store so I can I get an exchange....Thanks

I had the same issue, and the dent left a very small bubble mid screen (it wasn't a cm). You can't notice it when the screen is on and most people probably wouldn't notice at all, but I know it's there and it does annoy me (only slightly). I thought the postman may have damaged it at first, but after checking the cardboard package I could tell there were no corresponding marks on the envelope, so it must have been damaged prior to dispatch. That is actually more annoying than the bubble itself!

I just couldn't be bothered to return it so can't help on the timescale. Bubble aside, I am pleased with it now it's on the Vega.

Got my screen protector today and managed to fit it perfectly. I've no idea how I managed it as I'm usually a nightmare with them.

Takes that horrible reflectivity off the screen just nicely.

Now just waiting on my case.

The capacitive stylus arrived today, I like how it fits in the 3.5mm headphone jack not to lose it, only problem is when scrolling through pages that everything is a link, like in the market place.

Where did you get it from and how much?

Amazon £10.26

Looks good but quite expensive. Wonder if it works fine with the screen protector.

Might use a sausage instead :)

We're happy that stylus' work correctly with the screen protector.

If you are after a decent stylus, then Currys/PCWorld sell the Griffin Stylus for iPad for £14.99. It's only in the bigger stores but if you pick up a gift guide and get the £5 voucher (at least) off the back, you've got yourself a £9.99 branded stylus.

Currys is 58 Kings Mall, Hammersmith, London, W6 0QB - A small store.

PCW is 47-53 KENSINGTON HIGH STREET, KENSINGTON LONDON W8 5ED - Quite a big store I think.

Thanks

You can't use the voucher online as far as I'm aware. I'll check with the online team why it is showing out of stock. The stylus should be in larger stores.

Any news on the dock?

what i think would be great would be a dock, then some sort of keyboard option (mabe plug into usb slot) then can use vega as a mini desktop or for word documents on documents to go ect

[Guest remlap]

I thought that was one of the best features myself. It was doing my nut in when I left it to charge overnight on my night stand.

Hello,

I just posted on the other thread. I'm part of the accessory team for Vega at DSG.

We have setup a code for the case so you can get £10 off. Use ADVENT10 at the checkout. There is also a code for £3 off the Screen protector. Use PROTECT3 at the checkout.

We are trying to support the community as best we can. Keep an eye on #adventvega for more information or I can reply here.

Thank you very much - I just bought one for £20! Glad to see that you are supporting us here. :)

[Guest jellywobbles]

The code doesn't work anymore :) :)

I just used the code 15 minutes ago! Try again
