Here is a case you all would like. They are out of stock now but they will receive some in two months or so. However, they have the vertical version also available.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Please post some links. At the time I didn't finy any decent pouch so I bought that one...

it looks nice if the demo photos are true. But pricey so I went with clarivues. Hopefully it arrives soon. I'm starting to notice the micro-marring on my screen. :mad:

Will definitely try MF's next.

looks like martin fields has a n900 case too now.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

I bought the original Nokia case today, the CP-321 (white). I actually like it :).

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Sorry to hear that but thanks for confirming my suspicions.

Are there any book type cases that don't use a plastic covering over the keyboard? And are the book type cases comfortable when held as a phone?

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Uh, reading the ebay auction for the D2 shows that it uses hidden magnets. Looked like it could've been my next case otherwise. Are there any holsters that don't use magnets?

Has anyone used this case? If the tabs don't break, the fit is good, and it doesn't scratch the display trim, it might be a decent option.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

I have the D2 case but with the push through enclosure. I actually really like it. Looks classy and stays shut well. They are great cases. Really high quality. They come in a gift box inside a felt bag. I use that bag to sit the N900 on when it is just on my desk. (Yep I am fussy so do everything I can to keep it scratch free). The only thing with this case and any horizontal one I imagine is you remove the N900 on an angle rather than pull it straight out as it can flick the unlock slider as it is a snug fit. That is really nit picking though. I could not be happier with it and I avoided the magnet issue with this closure. I customised it with red inner and my initials and this closure. First class guy to deal with also.

I have a clear protector on my N900 to protect the screen. Love that also. Really easy to put on (don't let the water method scare you).

Hope this helps.

what's the best pouch to buy for the n900? any tip?

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

That's what I did. But I'm still confused.

And by the way, where can I shop online golla pouches?

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Go gollas webpage -> retailers -> select country and it lists electronic shops as well.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

I have a golla too. It was to use before I got my Easecase. Have to admit it was really good. I don't think it offers as much protection as the leather easecase if the N900 was dropped though.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Yea I also have the clear protector, it was nice and clear until i try on the PDAIR leather case. my back invisible shied was ruined because of that case.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Anyone noticed PDair just released Aluminium case for n900 that comes in silver and black?

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

The default one does, yes, but you can customise it as you like - there's three or four different closing mechanisms you can choose from.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

The golla retailers in Portugal don't have the pouch that I want... I guess I'll need to buy it on eBay.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Got my CP-321 that I ordered the other day. Nice simple pouch with a leather finish. Not bad.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Just got my PDair Book type http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product...ducts_id=26893

Looks good. The fit is a little bit tight but I'm expecting the leather to "open" a little bit by using the case.

On a sidenote, they also sent me a leather keyring for free. A red leather keyring. Heh.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

I have the black version of this one and am quite happy with it.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Yea, and i dont use any of these hardcovers anymore, just screen protector :)

My girlfriend does though. 4 different colors.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Take a close look at the retaining tabs in the case top half, at the lower right side, where it slides over the keyboard. I had to file it a little so it didn't scratch the lower case half of the N900. Also, the top case half on mine was loose and would pop out with moderate pressure, so I use two pieces of insulation tape on each side, in side the top part of the case. Nice 'n tight now. Of course, there are many different kinds sold on EBay, so yours might not have these issues.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen protector

Detailed pictures of this on your N900 please?

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

I ordered an EASWCASE from their e-bay store. It is a chinese company and they offer choice of designs, colour and leather (all configurable as you order). It took 2 weeks, but it was well worth waiting. The quality of craftsmanship is outsanding (was surprised). The price is a reasonable 24£ delivered. For me this is the ultimate case for N900 so far. It offers style (unlike 99% of the cases - IMHO) and protection while stereo jack remains accessible (a must). The phone sits sterdy inside and wont fall off (so far) - you can choose an extra strap but I figured it was not needed...Have a look at the pics..

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Ok - bit of a funny one here. Originally I had the Clarivue Privacy screen protector fitted to my N900. I wrote it wasn't fully up to my expectations so I was ordering the Ultra-clear version.

I applied the Privacy edition on the day of the PR1.1 firmware update and since that point, my battery life on the N900 has barley lasted the day.

Skip to today. I've had the Clarivue Ultra-clear fitted (which is excellent btw) for the last 4 days. I wouldn't say my usage has changed nor have I installed or uninstalled any extra apps. My battery life has suddenly become amazing, its past half way through the day and it still has 90% of its battery remaining with moderate use.

I've had my N900 since mid-december so it cant be down to battery cycles (??) but it seems too coincidental. My only guess can be it was down to the privacy filter covering the proximity sensor, perhaps causing it to constantly activate/deactivate?

This is a pure up in the air guess and could be nothing to do with my battery drain so I'll stick the filter back on over the top during my working days next week and see if it makes a difference..

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Crikey! I'd guess proximity sensor or ambient light sensor being blocked, yes.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

I personally tried these cases and took pics at a Staples in Toronto.

This does not fit. Do not waste your time. ($28)

http://t2.pixhost.org/thumbs/599/140...selogic-ds.jpg
This fit quite nicely. Perfect width. About 1/2-3/4in room at the top. ($15)

http://t2.pixhost.org/thumbs/599/1402148_golla.jpg http://t2.pixhost.org/thumbs/599/140...lla-detail.jpg
The Gollas fit perfectly. ($15)

http://t2.pixhost.org/thumbs/599/1402150_omega.jpg
This was a perfect fit but horrible in terms of material. ($27)

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Very interesting. I wonder, does the Zagg screen protector hinder battery life as well?

edit: Nevermind. The Zagg looks like there is a hole for the proximity sensor.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

I bought one of these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=290386256129
And I received it today. It's in two "pieces" so sliding out the keyboard is no problem. You also have access to all buttons(even including the stand). The piece for the screen feels like it will slip off any minute even though I know it wont, and also you can see some edges where it's molded togheter, but otherwise it's a great purchase. And for the price, there's nothing to talk about, really. It even protects the Nokia logo on the front. I will also buy a Invisible Shield screen protector, then my N900 should be completely safe, I hope :D

If you want some pictures, just tell me and I'll take some, since the photo on the eBay don't even show how it looks with the cover on the phone.

EDIT: It even came with a screen protector that look like the one in this post: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=496892&postcount=1

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen protector
 

Hi, I just purchased a Noreve cover for my N900 and it has been an absolute dissapointment. First they did not have the item I ordered in stock (even though the website said they did). They then send across a different product - i wanted a black one, they send a grey-green one claiming it is charcoal. The item recieved also looked to be a used or refurbished item - worn edges are a key tell tale. After requesting a refund they asked to ship it back - the cost of which would negate any refund amount.
End result - stuck with an item that looks used, isnt the color i want and have no way of returning.

Thoroughly dissapointing experinece - my advice - never buy a product from this company - its over hyped,over priced and lousy.

on top of that upon my complaint of the quality, the customer rep 'Cynthia' responds;

no problem... Have a good day.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Is that the same as this? I think there are two types of clear cases, a hard one and a flexible one. Do the tabs that hook onto the phone feel strong?

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they're the same. The tabs on the bottom part feels strong but the top part tabs feel not that strong, but I managed to hold the phone only by the top part so I guess it will hold. Neither part have fell off during usage at least, so that's good. And really, for 3$ I wouldn't have cried blood if it weren't any good.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen protector
 

Yeah Cynthia is well known already .. :cool:

Edit: I was ordering one from Eixo which has similar design like the classic one from noreve - and also a little disappointing to me at least.

Re: N900 Case / Pouch / Screen Protector Thread
 

I see the customization options now. Looks good. I may go with a different closure though. I see there are two types of snap closures available for the D2, designated as "Two magnetic snaps" and "Two snaps". Is the "Two snaps" closure non-magnetic?

Is there any functional difference between the two different belt loops?

Am I correct in assuming that the belt clips include the belt loops?

How good is the quality of the belt loops and clips?

How does the leather compare to Noreve? Is it better than your typical cheap ebay stuff?
