Yeah I've got one.
Pros:
Pros:
Good screen protectionCons:
Easy access to all ports/buttons and external SD
Can use built-in stand
Offers no protection for left, right and bottom sidesOverall, I like it, I just wish they'd made it just a bit wider, to offer side protection.
Requires stick on metal piece to back cover
Has a tendancy to slip (not centered on case)
Front magnets are really strong, so it can be difficult to open (really need fingernails)
Don't put near your credit cards!

Could someone who has the official Nokia case please post some pictures of it somewhere because what is available on the Nokia sites is just not enough to understand how it works (how is it attached etc...).
This is where one of Thoughtfix's unpackaging + testing youtube videos would be real nice...

Just received my case from buy.com today. I liked the case a lot, especially because it doesn't add too much extra thickness to the N800. The case leaves the left, right, and bottom open, but I'm ok with that. The magnet embedded in the case is quite strong, it's holding the case to the N800 without problem. Heck of a deal for $21+tax.
Someone already posted pictures of the N800 with the case, so I won't post more pictures. But here's a few pictures of what's in the package:
The package contains the case, a metal strip, 2 magnets, instruction booklets, and a cloth.
The plastic case took a little beating on the way here, but the case is ok.
Picture of the 2 magnets.

Expansys UK seem to be doing a good trade with these cases... 3 days ago they had 29 in stock, now down to 13, which isn't bad - healthy demand!

Don't know in the UK but in the rest of europe the nokia shop seems cheaper than expansys (29? plus 5 for shipping)

I just got mine yesterday. The price (nearly €44 plus delivery from Expansys) left kind of a bad taste in my mouth but I like the way the cover (a) doesn't add much bulk or weight and (b) protects the screen while still leaving it easy to get at everything. I feel a lot happier about sticking the tablet in my pocket (though obviously not the same pocket as my bank cards, because of the magnet).

It's examples like this that make me despair at Nokia - their online store is abysmal, it's impossible to even buy replacement styluses for the 770/N800 unless you know the "hidden" link to the relevant pages! Sort it out Nokia... if your online shop is this bad, forget about trying to build a services portal.
