I downloaded a crack version that allows connect via 3G which loaded up and logged in ok, but I think because of removing the phone apk files, it crashes as soon as you try to do anything

I have one of 'em and I like it. Others have one and don't. I've had to get mine replaced as a couple keys weren't working.

It's a handy case and turns the tablet into a netbook :)

Indeed it is. Just be sure to get the one with the mini-USB connector. Some out there have the regular size connector and you have to use an adapter.
