what do you guys think?
I just got one and it fits wicked !
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=9704622961&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MESE:IT&rd=1
I purchased the same item last month, its branded T Mobile, but a good fit. It has elasticated sides so would probably be suitable for other PDAs, I can also use it for my Sharp Zaurus SL-C760.
You may want to shop around on eBay as I purchased from a US seller for £7.99 including delivery although it took 3 weeks to arrive.
Mike
yeah I realised that these ones were a little more expensive but they are in the UK so easier to trace etc. and plus mines arrived next day, so I was well happy
In North America?
Does anybody know where I can purchase a leather case like this one in North America?
I've been looking for a case for my Universal that is the same as the Qtek case. Not a skin but a belt holster that has a magnetic clip for closing but the Universal slides out completely when taking it out of the leather case -- oriented on your belt horizontally.
Is this what you're looking for?????

This is the one I use for my JasJar. Great carrying case. I purchased mine from this seller (In fact I bought two). Works great. Good seller. JasJar fits right in.
Best deal in my opinion.
Good luck.
Take a look at this company, the Brando cases are considered one of the best cases to buy.
Flip Case
http://shop.brando.com.hk/bwdopod900leathercasef.php
I've bought 4 of my cases over the years from this company, although they are based in Hong Kong I have never had any problems with the service.
The delivery has always been within a week to the UK. I bought the side opening case last week from them and I'm very pleased with the quality
Side Case
http://shop.brando.com.hk/bwdopod900leathercases.php
Hope this helps.
I have to agree about BRANDO. I have bought several cases from them and they have always been very fast at delivery and courteous. Once i had a faulty case and after an email and photo of the problem they immediately replaced it!
Their screen protectors are also amazing, ive been using them on an A920, A925, A1000, SX45 and now my Exec.
The case from the first post is EXACTLY like the case that cme with my HP Ipaq H6340. I used it for a while until i hanged it for a krusell.
If any of you guys want a source and dont trust ebay, try HP.COM and look in accessories for the H6340/6315
Brando end-latch case
Actually, I ordered the Brando case that opens lengthways. It's not too bad, some small alignment issues with the openings in the leather...
I just realized that I like the JasJar without anything attached so I'm looking for cases that it's slides out of completely. Maybe I'll get a silicone skin for it so it's more tactile but after using my Brando case for awhile, I definitely want one that I can remove the JasJar from completely.
I must admit, the Brando case looks nice and feels good other than the alignment issue. Delivery was fast and service was good.
What I'm after is a nice holster style case like this one from Sena. Does anyone know if a JasJar will fit into this case??

You might find the Krusell Horizontic case suitable, but you'll need a PDA Large (code 94108 or 94113) and they're a bit of a dog to get hold of in the UK.
Brando vs Krusell
Yeah, I'm in Canada having real issues finding a distributor that carries the Krusell case.
And why am I looking for the case after buying a Brando?
Because the Brando sucks. After the second plunge to the concrete that my JasJar took because the metal screw holding it to the swivel swivelled right out (!), I've given up on the Brando.
It's crap. Your better to go with another case. Speaking from experience and one scraped up JasJar.

Dave...
the best Ive seen to date is the Piel Frama... expensive, but you get what you pay for ;-)
I've notice a lot of these cases for the universal, the edges are actually expose. You drop your universal and an obvious damage will be visible. The case that came with my Exec was crap, so as the other cases from O2. i have to agree, Piel Frama is the best one i've seen and the price is pretty quite expensive. :?
I have to say, I have a Krussell Leather 'Bikini' model with swivel belt clip which does the job perfectly for me. And I've dropped my M5000 numerous times with no damage even thought there is a lot of exposed casing... only problem is the stylus and SD card shoot out when dropped, I'm on my 4th stylus @ £5 a pop and 3rd 1GB SD (Glad the SD card prices have dropped!)
Anyone know where i can get a silicone case for my compact iii???
Someone must know something?????
already looked but no luck yet
I keep looking too. The leather thing that comes with it makes it too bulky and frankly looks a bit..... gay

Hi, do you have the orbit or the compact 3, how snugly does the case fit. Do all the cut outs line up correctly, I've got a compact 3 and am thinking of getting one of these.
Thanks
It all fits real snug, everything lines up nicely too. I have a compact 3.
Hi,
What case do people recommend to keep their Orbit safe? I'm stuck between the Krussell (which I have protected phones with before) , a silicon case (ebay item number 160068404562) or PDA Leather Flip Case (ebay 160068463414).
I'm tempted for the silicon as you still have easy access to the screen , but welcome any other ideas.

Before reading your question, I was not aware of the existance of a silicon case for this model. Now I've looked it up at Ebay and am also interested. A couple of months ago I bought a silicon case for my mp3 player (different brand though, ZCover) and am very pleased with it. So far however, the seller seems only to ship within the UK. I have just asked him by email if he is able to ship abroad, no answer yet.
Update: he does sell abroad. Apparently he has more than one item on Ebay, all about this case but with different shipping methods. Anyway, I just ordered a black silicon case, due to arrive later this week. I will let you know.
hi
i have the PDAIR flip case and am very pleased with it. i prefer it to a silicon type as it gives the screen more protection.
I agree that a flip case does give more protection, especially to the screen, but isn't it annoying when actually making a call? I presume you don't take the phone out of the case before calling. To me it looks rather silly. NOFI.
Have a look for the aluminium (on ebay, under artemis/p3300) case for the artemis as I have just ordered one and hope it is a good fit for the orbit?
Not massively protective but the slipcase supplied with the 8oGB ipod is a perfect fit. I'm using it just now to avoid scratches until i find a good screen protector and silicon case.

has your aluminiun case arrived, How much extra bulk does it add, as I'm thinking of getting one. I already have a black silicone case which is very good, and a very tight snug fit, but no protection for the screen. If the aluminium one is not to big, then I would sell my silicone case.
Yes my aluminium case came through the same day as my last post and it does not add much bulk to the device. The only issue I have had with it is the stylus is covered slightly so to remove it you have to open the case and slide the phone up slightly. Apart from that great case would recommend highly to all those in need of a case. My case came in a Pdair box so I assume it is made by them?
I also have the leather PDAIR flip case and my only criticism is that it extends a little to much toward the sides of the base of the screen so that I must angle the stylus a bit at the edges.

I just had a look at the aluminium cases sold on Ebay but they don't seem to have protection for the screen as well? How is that different then?
Just like you, I ordered a silicon case last week and it arrived a couple of days later. I'm pleased with it, pretty tight fit, better grip, no chance anymore of scratching the camera lens when the phone is on it's back, and all the required openings are exactly on the right spot. Indeed, the only thing left is the absence of protection for the screen, but I don't carry the phone in a pocket together with keys or coins.
The aluminium case has a plastic screen in it to protect the orbit. You have to open the front cover to use the touch screen.
All of which is not a problem as I would advise anyone with a phone of this quality to purchase a screen protector ASAP.
I didn't use my orbit till my protector came through the post.
Hi All
I spoke to the lady in the O2 shop in Swindon about cases, she said that O2 will be releasing some Orbit specific ones in the next couple of weeks.
I have my fingers crossed.

The slightly scratched, fingerprint smeared and dusty state of my just-over-a-week-old Orbit screen would probably give you a heart attack then! Screen protectors don't come cheap, £10 for little sheets of sticky plastic... selotape is under £1 a roll! I'll just use some of that!
Has anyone on their internet travels come across a vertical leather pouch/holster for the Artemis that has a belt clip?
Something like this:
http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/store/productdetail.asp?productid=21740
Just want something that can be attached to a belt and the Artemis slid into and out of - not for use in the actual case.
Must be vertical and minimal size (ie designed for the Artemis and no larger).
Krusell Vertica with Multidapt® - S-Wide
Selotape aside I'll almost certainly be going for http://www.pielframa.net/pielframa_productos.asp?id=1685 (mentioned on the other case thread) if I ever bother getting a case... can't beat something made-to-measure!
Just got myself a Piel Farama in black for my Jasjam. Looks very good and high quality but certainly requires getting a bit used to as each time you have to open the flap and fold it all the way back to get a hold of the device to take or make a call.
regards
Thanks Moleshome - that is exactly what I am looking for except my only concern (as with all "multi" cases) is that it will not fit it nicely and/or be the smallest possible case for the dimensions of the p3300. I can't think it fits all of the listed "compatible" models perfectly and I don't know if the Artemis would be in that category.
Anyone bought this particular case? Experiences?
Got my Piel Frama case today - it fits the Orbit well despite being designed for the P3300 (sharper corners).
Overall a beautifully crafted case which I will probably return as it won't let me store a credit card in the flap. My last case for the XDA Mini was a Krusell - hope they bring out an Orbit sepcific case soon....

No good for spontanous gprs internet shopping on the go then?
I dropped an email to see if I could get one for review, fingers crossed otherwise I'll have to fork over some mulah or see what my birthday holds. (I've been a games/tech journalist for a while, which is nice)
Would be interesting to get a comparison of the Krusell and Piel cases, and maybe something a bit more on the minimalistic size. I'll see what I can do, but neither are contacts I've dealt with before.
Has anyone found a horizontal leather (or decent other material) that is actually large enough (5.5'+ or 140+ mm) that actually is big enough so that with a TPU case, the phone does not need to be pried out when trying to remove it? The largest one I have come across is this one:
https://www.moonshineleather.com/productdetails.cfm
but even it looks like it may be borderline. Don't want to spend $29 for something that may not be what I need. TIA...
Hey. I'm using the diztronic matte tpu case and this hi quality pouch that I bought from eBay. Perfect fit with the case. Here's the link. http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=150687510849&index=3&nav=WON&nid=86484445014&trxId=0

I actually called them and they have just created an XXL sized one as a result of other inquiries about it, I just ordered it, will report back upon receipt. I looked at yours, but I have found over time that I need the two "through the belt" holders as well.
Holy Cow! it's $29.... i wouldn't pay that much considering there are tons of under $5 on ebay or Deal Extreme

Yeah, I get that, but, the whole "you get what you pay for" thing applies. Having actually spoken to the Sales Rep. and her guaranteeing it for life (I've seen lesser quality ones that have ripped the belt loops over time), plus, the "Made in America" thing fits into the equation as well, on some level. The personal touch did it for me...

I have a TPU on mine and this case fits perfectly, they are at WM up in Canada for $19.83.
Oh and they are real COW not the plastic ones.

I like to use a neoprene sleeve (or something similar) for traveling with a tablet. Has anybody found one that fits well? Most of the ones I've found are either too big or possibly a little too small. Seems like one designed for an e-reader might work.
I bought for my G Pad a 8" Yarvik sleeve, but as almost every 8" tablet, the Yarvik sleeve is designed for those squarer 8" (our G Pad is more like a rectangle). So in for height the G Pad fits great, but in width there is a lot of empty place, so the tablet inside is moving to the sides. Still better than nothing though...

No Neoprene but fits perfect
wrong thread - please delete.
Samsung 7-8" Pouch Stand
It's not a sleeve pocuh, but I love its functionality and cost (in Spain 10-15€). It's available in 3 colors, I have grey and lime, for my Galaxy Tab 7.7 and for my G-Pad 8.3. The Galaxy Tab 7.7 fits perfectly, but the LG is a bit taller than pouch, about 5mm. It fits very good, but maybe the top of the tablet exceed over the pouch.
I recommend you the pouch because its functionality, the size is not a real problem for me.

I bought this one and it arrived today. Big disappointment. It's very tight and it's hard to get the tablet in and out. It's pretty much useless as a stand, and the flap does not close when the device is in the case. I put in a return request already.
Here are a couple that I am looking at.
This one kind of looks good but concerned it may be too big / bulky.
http://www.amazon.com/Optimus-Protective-sleeve-messenger-Black/dp/B00GVHUP1K/ref=sr_1_111?ie=UTF8&qid=1386732131&sr=8-111&keywords=lg+g+pad+8.3
This one appears to be more of a pouch / case to accommodate accessories along with the tablet. Nice but pricey. Still tempted though
http://www.sfbags.com/products/tablet-cases/travelcase-tablet.php
This last one is actually designed for the Mac Wireless keyboard. I actually own one of these and the G Pad fits perfect width wise, but the sock is too tall / long by about 2 1/2 inches. It can be folded in if desired. It's nice material and soft. Still a little pricey in comparison to the first one.
http://www.sfbags.com/products/keyboard-cases/keyboard-socket.php
Tough deciding. May go with the last one if I can convince my daughter to shorten it and sew the end back up for me.
I've got this one: <amazondedomain>/gp/product/B008H3MOY2/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Though maybe only available in germany and not made of neoprene but some fabric (which I like much more, btw). Fits rather tight in length and has 1-2cm space in width, i.e. seems to be meant for some 7" tablets.
Sorry for the missing amazon.de domain... my first post and i'm not allowed to specify external links...?
I got this one at 5 below in New Jersey. It is a perfect fit but I did have to remove the Velcro from the inside and make a strap to latch it shut.

It's a bit shocking how limited the accessories are for the gpad. With luck my new VOIA jelly case will be here from the US by the end of the month. That's only 6 weeks........
I'll have a look on the US Amazon site and see if I can spot it for you as I'm sure it's a rebadged generic case, even if it's very nicely made.
