Default [Q] Grip sticker?

Anybody know where I can get an adhesive sheet to stick to the back of my touchpad to make it more grippy? This thing is slippy as. Something like a racquet grip, ideally.

I was thinking the same thing until I bought the HP Case for it. It needs something to hold it in and this case, for me, is the best thing. It makes it feel like it is more usable and robust.

Why would you want to risk having adhesive stuck to the back of the unit?

I have the HP case. It's nice and slim but the front panel flapping around (or having to be held back) when open is a bit of a pain, and it also makes the shape uneven.

Here is some I have been looking at the carbon fiber helps, as I used to have one on my view-sonic gtablet:

I'm interested in seeing what may come out soon for the touchpad. I've seen a lot of sellers on Amazon that have products launching in early Sept. Specifically for the TP. I just want a nicely fitted silicone case and a anti-glare screen film for mine.

I ordered a full body extremeguardz skin for $14.99 which should give it some good grip. I use one on my vibrant and it's pretty damn good
