So i personally love the otterbox on my iphone, and i swear by them so i emailed them to see if they would be supporting the xoom with one of their cases and received this in response
Unfortunately, we do not have any information if a case will be made at this time for that device, but it is something that has been requested a lot. I would say to keep an eye on our website, as it will have the most up to date information on any new releases that we may have. Thank you, Dominick Adamo Customer Service Representative [email protected]

Yea, I got that same darn generic reply
My brother in law works for Otterbox. I actually asked him about a case several days before the Xoom was released. I heard back from him last week after he talked to his R&D department. He said cases will not be available until at least May
got the same generic response... looks like ill go with a zoogue.com case; they seem to have better functionality than otterbox if not as good protection.
Otterbox now has a link to they're Xoom Defender Series case. It is not avalible yet, just says coming soon. Has some great pictures though!

I had bought a Case Mate Tough skin case for my phone, and it's had a lot of issues with the power button fit, it would turn off and on by touching the area anywhere near it. I looked around case-mate.com and noticed this case is not on their website, so I contacted Case Mate and they say it's a known issue, and are going to ship me a new one when they come in sometime during in the next 2-4 weeks.. Good customer relations.

That's fantastic news! Where did you say you got it from? Or did they not ask?

They asked for my order number, I told them I didn't buy it online, that I bought it from a retailer.
Bummer. I disliked mine so much i tossed it in the trash LOL.
yeah I was pissed.. I had one on my last phone, (Nexus 1) and it was amazing. I dropped my phone several times and it never had a scratch. Sabooher - contact them, they didn't ask for me to send mine back, or see a receipt..
Not even sure i would want a replacement. LOL The plastic part of the case is great. Its the silicone part that sucks. I learned my lesson this time.

Got this email today from them:
Hello,
Thank you for contacting case-mate. I apologize that you are not completely satisfied with your case-mate purchase. Unfortunately, we were given a prototype Nexus phone device from Samsung that we modeled our cases from. When Samsung released the Nexus phone device to the public, they made minor changes that we were not aware of. These changes, affected the fit and function of the case. We have redesigned the case and the new cases will be available on our website in approximately one month. If you send me your shipping address, I will be more than happy to send you a replacement case at no charge. I apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused you. Please provide your shipping address below and a photo of the defective case.
Shipping address :
Please let us know if we can be of any additional assistance.

I wish I would have found this thread before I bought this case. I am really disappointed with this case for the GN. I have had tough cases on several phones and they sure messed this one up. I have sent customer service an email so hopefully they will replace mine as well.

Sadly for me because I ordered mines directly from Case-Mate.com rather than a reseller. They provided me with a coupon that gives me 20% off but wouldn't give me a free replacement and said that the free replacement is only for people who bought the case from a reseller. HOWEVER, they did refund me for the purchase I made on the Tough Case. So pretty much, I got the case for free if I want to continue using it with the current flaws of it.
So pretty much:
buy case from reseller -> free replacement
buy case from case-mate.com -> coupon code off
They also said the revised case for the Tough Case & Pop coming out later this month will fit both GSM & CDMA models.
i sent a mail to case-mate .
The case-mate Tough for the galaxy nexus is now not available in their website :
http://www.case-mate.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Nexus-Cases/Samsung-Galaxy-Nexus-Cases.asp
Just the barely case-mate is available !!
I hope a sending of revision of this case, i bought mine from a reseller.
I don't know if they exchange it for internationnal customer?
I hope so, because it's a bad advertising for their brand...
Wait and see !!
So I was looking around on Verizon's website for Xoom accessories. They are at a severely discounted price but most of it is sold out. Now when you set to see accessories for the Xoom, it shows the keyboard folio as out of stock, but I discoverer that if you click on it, sometimes it will give you the option to order it. The trick is not to click on the option for the overview of all accessories, you want to hit the button to see all recommended accessories. Once there, the case is shown as in stock. I figured what the hell, I'll order it and if anything I'll get a folio case for 30 bucks. Lo and behold it came in the mail. I'll post some screenshots and a receipt picture in a bit.
good stuff..

On the Verizon site go to shop, then do a search for the Xoom Bluetooth Keyboard Folio case. You may have to navigate around a bit, but it's worth it at $29.

I had a Seidio Surface case/holster combo for my previous phone and it was my favorite case. I wanted to get one for the Galaxy S2, but Seidio doesn't make one for the T-Mobile version. It's available for all other flavors of the Galaxy S2... just the T-Mobile version has been left out.
I wrote to them asking if they had plans to produce one in the future, but I can't get a straightforward answer from them. They just point me to their existing products for this phone. I was hoping that if there were enough people showing interest in this phone case, they'd consider adding it to their lineup. If you've got a couple of minutes and you'd like to see it happen, please consider contacting them about it.

The Active is a more rugged and bulkier case than the Surface. I've never had an Active case, but I wanted something like the Surface case that I could slip into my pocket or use the holster as needed.
I can't post outside links yet, but if you look at the Samsung Epic 4G Touch category on their site, that phone has both cases available for it. It should give you a good idea of what the Surface case should look like for the T-Mobile version of the phone.

Ok i see what they were going for, but let me be the first to say that looks ****ing retarded.
I've seen one of those Draco cases on an iPhone. They're pretty unique, although I'm not sure they're worth the $80.
I bought this one on Amazon a few days ago, I have not received it yet.
Currently says they are unavailable.

I couldn't agree more. I bought my One because it is simply the best looking and engineered phone I have ever seen. I don't want to hide it. But I'm not content to wait on the Poetic Borderline case, and that Dracowhatever looks like a joke. I've been looking, haven't really seen any other bumper cases. Anybody else?
I've done quite a bit of researching on this one, and I cannot seem to find a hard screen protector(that is not a film) for the Moto X. Has anyone here found one? If not, could you help me in trying to find some?

im using this tempered glass screen protector at the moment. most people say theyre having bad senor issues when in a call but it doesnt bother me too much. feels just like the glass screen and fits well.
THIS might help a little bit, not sure any of the companies have anything ready for us.
