Hey Folks,
Recently I have been very fortunate to develop a great working relationship with the President of one of the major leather case manufacturers. As we all know, the NOKIA 770 has not exactly lit the 3rd party manufacturers on fire as shown by what is available to us 770 lovers. Anyway, he has agreed to let me put together a case proposal and unless I try and install a Keg Dispenser or Massage unit in it, is going to take it to manufacture. I told him that I was going to take this to the NOKIA 770 community and get all of the ideas that I could assimilate and bring them to him. So, if you have ever wanted to really have some input on a product that you may be buying, this is it.

First off, If someone considers themselves really handy with measuring items, I need a set of very accurate dimensions of the 770. Using the Inches scale that is stamped into the back of my leatherman tool I just don't feel is what he is looking for. LOL As this goes along, I may seriously just FEDEX my 770 to him, but like the rest of you probably think, it is a hard item to part with. So if someone is an arhitect or draftsmen, I can assure you a nice sit of detailed, accurate drawings will be rewarded at production time.

Ideas, lay them on me. What have you seen that you like? Do you like a Spring Steel clip that is permenantly mounted? Do you like the famous removeable spring loaded plastic belt clip that almost eveyone uses now? Would you like No Clip at all? I am already hot on the magnet, but, how would you want the magnet to work? Should the device be able to be stored in the case backwards as well as forwards like the hard shell that comes with it? MMC Slots, how many are enough? Storage for business cards? An ID Window for your own personal info?

OK, this is a very serious proposal, and I guarantee it is going to happen, unless I get 3 answers from people (and one of those answers is "Can you keep it under $10.00?) and little or no interest.

So this could be an interesting opportunity, and I look forward to seeing some innovative ideas. If you frequent other NOKIA 770 Forums, please spread the idea around.

If you want to EMAIL me direct on this, my EMAIL is supportstaff@comcast.net, Im using this email just for this project.

Thanks alot,
Ron aka Wireless

NOTE: In my excitement and after reading some of the posts (some great ideas, I find that I neglected to add a key piece of information, this case will be made from leather, as this is all that this manufacturer currently uses as a medium. I am going to ask if they have any connection with a Silicon manufacturer as I too would also like to see a silicone boot/case for the 770. That would be a great idea when just kicking ariound the house, desk etc. I still prefer a nice Leather case when on the move. Sorry guys/gals. My fault, that was a heck of a piece of information to have not been clear on.
