DS Lite cases are sometimes compatible too. My girlfriend got herself one for £4 the other day, does the job really well.

My Plantronics 640 BT headset arrived with a nice Aluminum hard case. Found this via Google images:

After emptying the inner mouldings and working a bit on the hinge with my thumbs, my N800 fits in very nicely.

Still want to add to it some nice lining cloth for a more comfy feeling.

Can someone post a picture or link to the DS Lite & PSP cases, please?

I think this is the DS Lite case.

What do you mean by, "rigid"...?

It'll collapse if you put your full weight on it, but it's hard enough to survive being poked and prodded by other items in a backpack.

Re: Any Good Hard Cases?
 
What about the size of it?

And, how about that Case Logic one? I am leaning toward that one?

Anyone know?

I like it I can just fit the N800 and my Nokia SU-8W bluetooth keyboard in it.

Are you refering to the Case Logic case shown?

D'ohboy 2008-07-24 04:30

Re: Any Good Hard Cases?
 
Yes I bought one at Best Buy.

Re: Any Good Hard Cases?
 
I went to Best Buy this evening and they didn't have them... What the hell?

Re: Any Good Hard Cases?
 
Did you look near the portable hard drives?

iTab 2008-07-24 04:58

Re: Any Good Hard Cases?
 
Nope, but I am ordering via in-store pick-up now, at another store.

hey ace,
about that psp hardcase:
1. other than the tablet, what else can fit in that case? could you fit anything more in it like a igo bluetooth keyboard in it too and/or cables?
2. does it have a "psp" logo on the cover of it? that's a deal-killer for me if it does :)

Re: Any Good Hard Cases?
 
Upon closer inspection, my case is slightly different from the first one you linked too. The auxiliary pockets have a different layout, and the clip is slightly moved. Other than than that, they look very similar.

Mine has no PSP logo and the top area is big enough for a WD Passport hard drive. The N800's AC adapter is too fat to fit.

Re: Any Good Hard Cases?
 
I ordered the Case Logic one. I'll get it later or tomorrow.

I was getting rather nervous about carrying my n800 in the sleeve it came with, especially after it slipped out of there couple of times and got a few nicks and scratches. After looking at quite a few Nintendo DS cases, PSP cases and hard drive cases, I finally settled on proporta case. I did not want a case that made n800 much bigger than it is. I have been happy with proporta case. It did not add much bulk and has provided good protection when I have dropped my n800.

i just go to the psp section in a video game store and buy the psp hard cases or sorrf cases, still pretty small but with alot of space to fit ear phones and other stuff.
