Good carry case
I'm using a Nintendo DS carry case (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...021865-8490225)
to carry around my 770, a freedom bluetooth keyboard, the stand, one of those emergency chargers, and a CA-44 all in one handy case. The 770 fits perfectly in the DS place, the elastic is plently strong enough to hold it strongly. Every thing else fits in the top lip. Shame it's got "Nintendo DS" embroidered onto the top! ;) |
OtterBox Wateproof Case
I was happy to find that an Otterbox 2000 case that I had around is a perfect fit for the 770. This thing is bombproof: hard plastic lined with closed cell foam and has an o-ring to keep out H20. A few index cards or a screen cleaning cloth can be carried around to make the 770 as thick as the interior and the other two dimensions are right on the money (with the silver Nokia screen protector). $18. My 770 now bounces around in my messenger bag and motorcycle saddlebags. No worries, mate.

I guess some kind of protection would be nice. A few days ago I had my 770 in my jacket pocket, when I got in the car and sat down it sort of slipped out of my pocket and onto the concrete ground. Luckily it just had a small scratch on the case...a shiny scratch. I think I saw that otter box at Fry's for the same price, but a clear one. I think I'll go get it.

I use the Sony PSP case that comes in the box with the PSP. It's very nicely padded and will do the job until Vaja or someone comes out with something...what I am really waiting for is a silicone skin like I use on my iPod and Treo 650, I really prefer the non-slip protection...

Another Otter 2000 user
The Otterbox 2000 is a near perfect fit for the Nokia 770. I found my at Ballard Camera in Seattle for $16US.
Here's some fuzzy pix of mine: http://kgfowler3.home.comcast.net/images/otter1.jpg http://kgfowler3.home.comcast.net/images/otter2.jpg cheers, -kf |
Has anyone tried the Otterbox Armor 2600?
|
Like the first poster, I use a case that is intended for the (original) Nintendo DS.
http://image4.play-asia.com/350/PA.19319.002.jpg The case has two compartments; the main one, on the front can hold the original DS, PSP or 770 (within its shell). I use the zippered section on the back to hold the DS Lite and two DS games. That OtterBox 2000 looks pretty neat! I might have to pick one up. |
i'm using the small DS case (white, nintendo DS emblem on the front, nothing else) nintendo gave away with their press kit after their Wii presentation in May. fits perfectly, and the back zippered section holds my CA-44 plug and occasionally a spare battery for my camera.

I'm using this case:
http://www.caselogic.com/koskin_ston...?modelid=44299 It has a plastic PDA holder riveted inside, but I ripped the plastic and rivets out. Holds the 770 perfectly w/ cover on. It's great for when I am afraid I might drop it. Case logic sells another case, http://www.caselogic.com/koskin_pda_...?modelid=57047, that holds the contents in with an elastic strap. The 770 sorta fits this one, but an edge is left exposed.. so if you were to drop it on pavement, there is a good chance of ending up with some damage. I opted against it, and decided to modify the other one and I'm happy. Also, the case that came with my Stowaway keyboard fits the 770 nicely, but I don't have any extras of those... heh. |
Hi!,
Would like to know if anyone's using these tucano second skin bags... http://www.tucano.it/ita/wcProductCa...ode=BPT-SS-U-G I think they're a bit small (13x8.5x2cm) for carrying the 770 w/shell (wich is a bit more of 14 cm long). is there anyone with a close alternative to these tucanos? Thanks. |

PDair 770 case
This is another thread that has been ongoing in case you guys (and gals) looking for 770 cases have missed it...
http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ead.php?t=1719 It's a leather flip-style case made just for the 770, meaning you can use the 770 without removing it from the case. The PDair cases are very high-quality, I have had one on my libretto u105 for the last 8 mos., and it is great... I ordered mine a week ago, should be here this week sometime...a few others already have theirs and so far so good. The best part, only $28 with free shipping from PDair, which is less than the one linked in the post above from the calculator accessory store...and that one is just a generic fit case... |
I was waiting for the PDair case as well, but with no magnet to trip the standby mode, and a clasp that affixes *under* the unit (will not lay flat when closed, covers charging port), I've decided to just stick with my modified Caselogic case ;)
Thanks for the heads up though! There are a lot of them available on ebay now. I wish someone would just come out with a nice, protective, leather case that I can store the unit in -- with the slip cover on! ;) |
I have been carrying my 770 in a small brown mesh Walker zipper case. It was $10 and the color matches the unit perfect. Fits well too. It looks cool & hip, but offers no cushioning protection. I really wish someone would sell a very high quality padded leather case that would let you store the 770 with the protective cover on. That would be so nice.

The Sony PSP slip-case works great, with or without the hard-shell cover, and it is very well padded. It looks as if it were made for the 770, and the 770 slides in and out very easily. I've been using this since day 1, and will continue to until my pdair case arrives... One other side benefit to the PSP case - they are cheap...you can find them used at all of the video game stores... |
I have the case below. It holds both the 770 ( including shell ) and my Freedom Mini Kb. It has a loop for spare stylus and a brass belt clip. Ther is also just space for the power adapter cable and usb converter.

Hello all,
I have just received a case handmade, you can find several photos at http://www.n770.net. It has 2 sockets to RS MMC cards, 3 for credit cards and 1 to carry some money you can carry on with a nice clip. I like it, only problem is that you have to charge with case opened. Regards, Ipae |

Piel Frama makes some nice cases, but they always use that magnetic clasp that fastens on the bottom like that...same as the PDair case... The best flap design I have seen is from EB Cases...they embed small magnets under the flap and case that hold it shut. I have had 4-5 of theirs over the years, and they are fantastic. |
