Need a new case - PLT-2 broke Ideas?
 
My niftly Case Logic PLT-2 just broke and I can't find them anywhere. What's everyone using no-a-days? I'd like something not just to hold it, but so that when then case is opened, the unit is available.

I don't know where you live, but I bought a leather case with a zipper that zips all the way around it for $1.99 at Goodwill thrift store here in the USA. Fits my N800 perfectly and since I bought this one I have seen many others that would work great also. Just a thought.

nintendo ds lite cases make great n800 cases. they usually have a strap to hold an extra stylus and 2 or 3 sd cards :)

cheap on ebay too :)

Not too bad, except that I wanted a case that actually held the unit in place, like a palm case, so that I could open, use, close.

I purchased this case for my N800 and never used it (I also purchased the Nokia sleeve case and prefer that). It is a leather case that holds the N800 and has a flap that opens to allow access to the screen. It includes a swivel belt clip.

I am willing to sell if for $25 including shipping if this would meet your needs. I bought this for $30, but Dell has lowered the price to $21.99. You can find a link to the Dell site here.

I have a PLT-2. It's a great case. After checking, I'm finding that Case Logic no longer makes them. That's very disappointing! I'll have to take better care of mine.

I did find a site that purports to have them for sale: http://www.procura.com/plt-2.html

Good luck!

I've been researching these cases. They're reported to do a pretty good job.

I like/would like/need/want a case that can do a bit more then just hold the 800 (which right about now is going to get thrown at the wall if is freezes one more time in the browser - but I digress).

I'd like a place to put the pen/stylus, small pad O' paper.

Thanks, at least you found one, I search for about an hour and never found anything that WASN'T "unavailable".
