Need Samsung Galaxy 2 Tab help

drbrosco · 12-14-2012, 08:51 AM

Hi yesterday I went to the Verizon store to buy my daughter the new Samsung Galaxy s3 phone and just could not help myself and bought me the samsung galaxy 2 tablet, the 10 inch version. And could use a little help from all you great forum members if you don't mind please.

Because I am disabled I have to spend way more time laying down in the bed than a normal person would and after 1 night I have definitely realized I have to have some kind of stand or I'm going to have to take this back. The Verizon store and the Verizon website does not sell a compatible stand for this and when I go on eBay they do have stands but I just don't know enough about technology and what works and what doesn't work to know whether I should spend 10 dollars on a stand for 40 dollars on a stand and that's were I'm hoping maybe somebody could help me because I have to lay on my right side all of the time I need something that the tablet could sit in right in front of me on the bed. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and let me add I went to the Samsung.com side and cannot find a compatible stand for this I guess because it's brand new according to the guy at the store.

Also I know most of you guys are very tech savvy of which I am not and if you have any hints tips or accessories suggestions I am all ears if you have time.

Thank you and everybody have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!

I have three 10" tablets in the house-- all have a case/stand much like this one . . . I would not be without one.

There are MANY different cases for this tablet; check out Amazon and EBay-- look at the photo and see which type fills your needs

The Poetic cover/stand that I have is not very good as a stand. It is a great cover, though.

For you...stay away from the Poetic (on Amazon).
