    Which accessories do you love, and which are a waste of $$ ?

    The title says it. I have been known to go overboard on accessories. What I thought would be a great help, can turn out to be dumb and useless. I'm trying to avoid this with my new Xoom. It is coming with a Cyber Acoustics leather case and the home charger. I have ordered an OTG cable adapter. What else, if anything, should I look at? Have you bought anything that ended up being surprisingly great, or a total loser?
    Thanks

    I got the BT keyboard and mouse, I've used them about, hmmm, twice!

    The nifty gel cover skin thingy is pretty good.

    I like my case with integrated stand, 17 quid from amazon, like tedster, i have used the keyboard and mouse..... Once and the standard dock..... Not at all and I did have the original case but sold it unused.
    I have gel sleeves which I do use and a stylus which is used periodically.

    I use my HD Dock the most, never use the pin charger.

    Standard dock to charge and have set of speakers hooked up to dock. Also OTG cable with a 90 degree offset. Makes for easier use when using my external hard drive when watching videos ( converted with DVD Catalyst) .

    My Piel Frama case is in use everyday to protect it, the bamboo stylus I picked up on Amazon the other week is pretty good and my HDMI cable micro to full size works to get the display on to my TV, however my OTG cable is next to useless as I am not rooted and I can't get anything to work through it with stock firmware.

    I also got the keyboard and mouse for free a while ago from Moto and similar to others I have used them at most a dozen times while surfing the net with the display outputted to my TV or projector.

    I might look into a dock which sounds like it might be easier to charge through rather than using the tiny pin AC charger.

    I bought a BT mini keyboard and honestly I've used it twice on my Xoom. Now I mainly use it for my PS3

    But I love my HD stereo dock.
