Accessories Case w/BT Keyboard?

I've been searching without much luck. Has anyone found any cases that fit the Xoom and have a built-in keyboard? My father has such a case for his iPad and I really like it. It's quite nice since you can either fold the cover over and just have the Tablet use or fold it such that it lays out more like a laptop.

Anyway, can't seem to find anything like this.

Sure, make me look lazy. :(

I've not yet purchased my Xoom. I'm hoping to do so on Sunday with the WiFi-only release. I suppose then I'll have a greater sense of urgency. I know the Moto Xoom Keyboard has received excellent reviews, but I just don't like the idea of having to lug it around all the time. Just seems a bit inconvenient. I suppose it might be different if I could find a nice neoprene sleeve that I could carry the Xoom and Keyboard in separately and securely. Possibly an additional slot for the PadPivot. ;)
 
well i dont see the moto keyboard as something to "lug" around. i used to "lug" a laptop.

however, the xoom and keyboard, makes it super easy to whip out. i have a case that holds the xoom, keyboard, phone, earbuds, stylus and has pockets for other knick knacks.

this case also holds the xoom in the leather portfolio case inside this so its a great buy plus you get a couple extras:

Amazon.com: Protective Shoulder Carrying Case For Verizon Motorola Xoom Tablet: Office Products

the keyboard is super thin, no real weight and fits inside this case.

dont knock the moto keyboard until you have tried it. verizon will let you try it for 30 days (a restock fee happens if you do return i believe--you could exchange it for something else and not get the restock but im not real sure about that..).
 
I guess by "lug", i just meant that i would have to carry it in addition to my Xoom. I'm a minimalist. I like to carry just what i need. But the pack you linked does look intriguing.
 
yes this is the exact case i have. it fits everything i posted.

it takes a couple o' seconds to put the bt keyboard in its little pouch in the case. :) it takes less than that to put the xoom in its section also... im a minimalist myself hence why i only carry the xoom and bt keyboard now.. :) heck i dont even use my evo much...
 
see that netted section there (i know theres a better word for netted... lol my brain doesn't want to tell me :D) thats where the board fits... :)

thats the same case. yeah just pick your poison as to which giveaway accesories you prefer.. :)

depends on the size of the HD. i have a couple of laptop sized HDs in slim cases and one of those would fit in one of the pockets. if you provide a photo of what you have i can give you a better answer...

This is what I'm currently using:

Amazon.com: Iomega 500GB eGo Portable Hard Drive, SuperSpeed USB 3.0/USB 2.0 Ruby Red - 35312: Electronics

Also, I meant to ask you, what leather case are you using?
 
I have seen those carrying case with keyboard. Last I saw they make one for the 7" galaxy tab. I'm sure there will be one for the xoom soon. I will keep an eye too.
