I got the MTT Leather Case. So far totally satisfied with it. Plugging in the headphone jack while cased would need some manual tweaking though.

How'd you find the metal clip? was it much better than the plastic?
Also, is the N900 held in firmly or would it fall out if the popper cam undone?
Thanks
They sent me the metal clip along with the case. AFAIK it is available for purchase over at the Noreve website.

This one's from PDair. The leather is far softer than Noreves but i didn't really like the plastic covering for the keyboard. Makes the keyboard feel tacky.

I've got this particular one from PDair as well. Pretty happy with it so far though the keyboard plastic cover does take some getting used to when typing. I still haven't gotten my typo rate down to what it was before.

Yea taking pictures isn't easy - you have to fold the cover all the way around to the max so that it doesn't come in the viewfinder preview.

FYI - I had a pending order since the ending of January with NoreveUSA for this N900 case. Found out this week via several emails that the company responsible for Noreve's US distribution is filing bankruptcy and reportedly has not paid Noreve (the parent company in France) in three months. I was advised to dispute my charge and replace my order with Noreve directly. They gave me a discount which offsets the increase in shipping costs.

If you try to go to the NoreveUSA.com website, you are instantly redirected to Noreve.com, so you can no longer contact the US distributor online.

It was worth it to me to dispute and reorder the case because the company produces such quality products. I have purchased many cases from Noreve over the years, even before they had a US distributor, so I am a longtime and very satisfied customer. I am looking forward to receiving my N900 case.

I will update this thread if I encounter any issues with my new order!

Absolutely. And another hole so you could charge the phone without having to keep the case open. Those two holes are the only thing I miss in this case. All in all, I am very satisfied with it.

I had the same opinion initially, but then reconsidered. I concluded that if there was a hole in the case for the micro-USB connector, that there was a likelihood of applying lateral forces to the connector if an attempt was made to open the case with the cable plugged in, and that this would be bad given the known weakness of the connector mounting.

However, a hole for the LED would be useful, although given the degree of slack in the case closure (at least in my case), the front cover does seem to move around a bit, so the hole would need to be fairly large.

I'm in a similar situation as you. My order never arrived. i've paid via paypal and all I get when I inquire is this lousy letter (below).

I can't get in touch with anyone one. No one picks up the phone and I'm now thinking that I'll never get my 56 dollars back!!

Please advise me how to contact someone??

Dear Valued Customer,



Thank you for your message. We have just found out that Croucier Industries was filing for bankruptcy.



We are very concerned and surprised about this bankruptcy since our brand has been growing consequently in the past 2 years.

We have immediately summoned our lawyers to take control over the situation. Be sure that as soon as we know what to do to find a solution, we will contact you personnally. It might take 2 to 3 days.

All Noreve team and myself would like to present you our sincere apologizes for this exceptional and serious situation which is and will be affecting our brand image.

Sincerely yours, ,

Michaël MASSAT

I bought directly from their website - I hope I get it! Was about 2 weeks about. Spent €80 on 2 cases.
