Wrist/forearm case like in party rock video - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I am wondering if anyone has ran across a case for our phone that would be worn on your wrist or forearm. I got the idea from the LMFAO music video for party rock. At the beginning there is a short clip of case like that for an iphone.
I know our phone is huge and this might not be practical.

iPad style case for Evo?

Ok so I hate the iPad. Sucks ass IMO. My bro has one. But he does have this kickass case for it. It's like a book and the iPad slips inside. That would be great for the Evo. ANyone know of a case like that? Even if it's generic I'll carve the spots out for the cam and the kickstand.
LOL I have that case for my iPad, it's made by Apple so no chance seeing it for EVO. I'd rather have an Android tablet but that case alone will keep me with iPad for a good while it's honestly the only time i've ever preferred using a device with a case vs. without.
Just make your own, be it out of leather or some other material.
Boxwave already has a case like this it should be on there site now its called a leather book type case look at every phone on there site you will see the cases you are talking about they have that case for every phone HTC makes I use those cases on all my phones

Body Glove Clear Case Wit Kickstand. Perfect. PICS!!

I got a body glove case from TMO for $25 and it was worth it.
There are two rubberized parts for grip. Its not bulky and it has the perfect kick stand.
Now some will complain that it doesn't cover the top or bottom but this allows it to fit in the leather case logic holster for icrap 3gs (walmart $14)
I'll let the pics do the rest of the talking.

Strange as the website doesn't have it.
Nice. I'll stick with my body glove grip case and chrome to edge. Good find though. Enjoy.

crazy thing i got that same exact case yesterday too. costs $25 bucks, cute saleswoman.... actually went there looking only for a car mount.
the kick stand is nice and works well, it snaps in place, so it doesnt mistakenly fold easily.
my big problem with it, before i got it, my back cover was like new (i think), but i see a few scratches on it now. i dont know if i did something else, or if i did not snap it on well. I also feel its gonna break whenever i take it off. apart from that its quite nice.
also the car mount i got (its a universal, but i think it might have been made for the mytouch slide). it works perfectly. has a little ball joint on it, so you can watch in portrait or landscape or midway inbetween at any angle. also has a little arm to swivel up or down. the perfect mount. costs $30
I picked up the same case today and seem very happy with it so far. Does not add much bulk and the kickstand seems to work well.
Putting on the case was a bit tricky and taking it off almost seems impossible...any recommendations?
Just pull it off from one side, no trick to it. I did have to replace mine yesterday cause the kickstand stopped locking. SMH

I checked it out when I got my phone... but as you said, it doesn't cover the top and bottom. The kickstand is nice... yes, but other than that, I don't see what this case really has to offer.
I went to 3 different T-Mobile stores and none of them have it. My only concern is since it doesn't cover the bottom, won't it get scratched from whatever surface you put it on top?
This case is awesome.

I got the all black one from Amazon for 21.95. And sir you saved my phones life! I was at the county fair today and I was riding a ride called the zipper (Google it!) So like in the middle of the ride my phone slips out and its banging everywhere. Thank God they have like no gaps for it to fall off. So anyways as I'm seeing my phone bounce every where I'm thinking awww duck! And like 2 minutes later( felt like 2 years) I see my phone in 1 piece with the case scratched up from the plastic. And my screen is alive! I almost died that day.

Holster

Anyone else here as old school as i am...a standard molded simple holster with belt clip is good enough?
i dont understand why there are 9 trillion cases out there, and why anyone thinks these phone condoms are any good. i for one, most of the time dont even use my holster and just throw it in my pocket.
maybe im just ranting, or maybe i make sense?

I bought a holster for my Phone. used it about a week and promptly bought a case for it. It's really odd on the hip.
Last time I had a holster it was for an old tdma nokia. I kept smacking into door frames when walking through. That would be a disaster for this phone. Just me though.
You could probably get a generic clip and stick it on the phone if you really wanted to.

Same, I use the leather holster, its so convenient...just through it in there and get back to work
I used to just throw my phones in my pocket, but that sucks... because then its like throw in the back pocket but my wallet is in my one so that leaves the other one, but then when I want to sit down I have to move it, and then I usually have keys in one of my front pockets...and so I can't throw them in that one because get all scratched up...etc..etc.. just has a lot of organizing my pockets..instead of just having a holster. Also notice that with my iphone...got a lot of lint in the speaker wholes etc... anyways HOLSTER FTW!
get the seido case combo, that's what I just got, waiting it to come in the mail.
Just got my holster 2 days ago and I'm loving it!! T-mobile wanted 19.99, but I found it online for a grand total of 6.47 after shipping and handling!!

Body Glove Snap-On Cover

purchased mine at the local vzw store. fits very good, has a good rubber texture that keeps it from slipping from your hand. comes with a removable swivel clip that i took off because I dont like clips lol
will post pics in a bit
how much did it cost?
is there any little piece that remains when you remove the clip?
does it slide into and out of a pocket easily or does the material grip your pocket making sliding difficult?

my friend bought this case... its makes the phone huge... I'm not finding any case that improves the feel of the phone any... I am just using a sleeve to protect it from being scratched in my pocket... and the seam that the 2 halves of the case leave looks god awful
It's not so bad. I love the case so far. Feels good in my hand and it hasn't slipped.

I like it too. I am looking for a leather horizontal case to use from time to time on my belt. This will need to be a little larger because of the additional depth with the body glove on. Let me know of any suggestions.

I would love to see some real life user closeups.. anyone feel like posting?
give me a couple of minutes, ill show ya in a bit
I am actually taking mine back since its too big and grippy making it impossible to slide into my jeans front pocket with it. also hate to cover up such a beautiful phone.
I bought this case, its good but it big and really really hard to take of
but id recommend it to clip users
I like mine so far. It's not all that attractive, but that's not why I bought it. It does seem to be pretty sturdy and the grip is really good with the case on. I haven't tried to take it off yet, but I don't expect it to be simple. BTW, I paid like $13-$14 shipped for mine on ebay.

Armband??

I'm looking for a good arm band now that it's spring, any recommendations? I've seen a few on ebay but don't know which one is good or not and if they are sweet proof.
I just ordered a tune belt armband from amazon that is designed for the galaxy nexus. I should have today or tomorrow and I'll post pics.

Thanks let me know how it fits, unfortunately that one is out of my budget but it looks nice
Recieved it today and took it out running. I use a Bluetooth headset so I can't comment on how it works with headphones, but I did wear it upside down the entire time and my phone never moved.
At first glance it looks like it is too narrow, however with no case on the phone it fits perfectly. No problems with using the screen through the plastic. Best armband I've tried.

Looks like the Tunebelt AB85 should work for an E4GT with a TPU case, although I have not tried it personally.

I use the seidio/pt hard case which I think has the thickness of TPU cases and when I first tried it, it was a very tight fit. I got about a quarter of the phone In the armband and it stretched it pretty good, didn't want to risk ripping it.

Bought the is800 Sony Ericsson no reviews yet as its in route so I'm keeping the wires for a lil longer but I work out at a small gym so distance shouldn't be an issue just worries about sound quality but the reviews on amazon looked good check them out
