I'm looking for a case for my T-Mobile MDA that I can use to put on my arm preferably forearm so I can go jogging and to the gym with. I want to use it as my preferred music device instead of my ipod, esp since I can use the bluetooth headphones ... anyone know of any case?
Have you seen the ipod ones? It'll be snug, but it'll fit.
Krusell has one that fits their cases.

I love taking my qtek 9100 running with me cause if i have an emergency i have a phone too but i would love an armband for it so that i can easily carry it. preferibly one with the abilty to use the buttons still but if not its okay. anyone see anything or recommend?
Hi grinny11 you may want to check out CASELOGIC MPC-7 [or MPC-4] I used this for my i-mate JAM [HTC Magician] before and it fits my dopod 838 [HTC Wizard] as well. The MPC-7 has an additional belt strap aside from the arm strap, and the MPC-4 includes just the armband [i think].
armband
after reading your post i got my ipod case and cheked to see if my wiz would fit and guess what.... it does. snug but it fits... It's the xtrememac arm band for ipod. you'll have to make a new hole for the headphones but there you go.

thanks for the caselogic recomendation. i went with that. i originally tried an ipod one by dlo(?) but it would swivel when i was running and was really inconvient. i then tried the case logic one and liked all the options with it. its even better now that i have bluetooth heaphones. thanks for the help
@Grinny11:
May I ask which BT headphones you are using? Also interested in getting a pair of stereo ones for myself.
Nike Arm Wallet
It's a snug fit, but it works for my cingular 8125 and it only cost 10 bucks. It's made out of neoprene so it stretches. The most I was able to fit was the phone, house key, twenty dollar bill, credit card and driver's license.
Has anyone seen or currently use an armband or similar for listening to MP3's while working out? An armband that has a clear front part so you can slick on things and have button access would be ideal.
Damn waist holster has fallen onto the floor while running one too many times!
Think Ipod
I have found that if it fits the older generation Ipods...it fits the wizard. I use a Ipod case with mine. The only thing to watch for is that the headphone jacks somewhat line up. Otherwise you'll just have to make a few modifications.
For my TP2 I'm looking for a solution for my case problem: I want to protect my TP2 in a case, but also want to be able to use it in a car (for navigation and hands free calling).
For the TP2 there seem to be two kinds of cases: one is more or less the one that came with my TP2, these are useless, because you have to take the phone out every time you want to make a phone call. The other type are the ones made by PDair, Krusell and others, where the phone can always stay in the case and even the keyboard can be used. However, it is way too much work to take the phone out of the case every time I want to use it in my car.
Today however, I may have found a solution: it seems that Krusell is selling a car holder in which the TP2 will fit while it is inside the case! And when I use their springclip (instead of the rotating round swivel knob) inside the car holder, it is fixed against rotation as well.
As an added bonus, they even have a bike holder, so I can use the TP2 on my bike as well!
Does anybody have any experiences with or comments on this idea?
Hi
Does anyone know if there is a sports armband for the wrist/arm that fits the TD2?
I have searched and searched, but haven't had any luck yet...
If anyone knows of one, I would be a happy camper.
Thanks in advance.
I've been looking too and fear gaffer tape might be the only solution...
Ok, maybe a bit extreme for your needs (I assume)

Why?
Why risk a £400 phone by strapping it to your arm when you can slip it in a pocket or secure belt case?
If you want mobile audio while out jogging or something, why not a small pouch with your phone safely stored in and a set of A2DP headphones? No wires at all, then.
If it's some obscure use, then I've no idea... I can't see their being much of a market for an arm-based mobile phone holder... Kind of makes it difficult to answer unless you plan on walking around doing an elephant impression!
EDIT: Or get an iPod Nano
VIVANCO armband for Iphone
I purchased this one from VIVANCO which is sold as an Sport Armband for Iphones. This was the best I could find for a reasonable price (12 Euros) and is very comfortable.

Erm perhaps because you want to do some exercise and you don't have suitable pockets? Nothing worse than having a phone bouncing around all over the place.
I use the band which came with my Motorola S9s. The phone fits in perfectly though it's very tight with the plastic case on.
You can make your own with a random armband and a diamond 2 silicon case.
I just got for myself this from Nike. Fits the TD2 perfectly.

for sure the sportsband that comes with the motorola S9 is most excellent fit for TD2.
Maybe with some luck it is possible to buy just the armband with ebay!
It looks like my next phone is going to be a Note 3. Does anyone have any experience with a windshield mount that will work with their case? The case will need to have a holster with belt clip. My current windshield mount is from slipgrip, but most of the cases they offer a mount for on the Note 3 don't seem to have the holster option.
I drive on some pretty rough roads so I need something that will stay stuck to the window and not let the phone bounce out. I use my phone as a GPS, so the windshield mount is kind of important.
See if my car holder plus wireless charger suits your needs.

It is very very sturdy. Suction on windscreen is awesome. Even after releasing button the suction is awesome abs have to really pull to get it off. Have four other holders and they don't even come close. Screen had frozen a few times due to cold and it stays on when usually my others would have fallen off.
I use it for sat navigation and Google music streaming usually and works great.
The holder had a depression where I insert the wireless charger. You could easily accommodate a belt clip in it.
Looks interesting. The only down side I see if it looks to take 2 hands to place or remove the phone. I don't always wear a bluetooth headset, so one handed removal and installation is kind of important.

I have been looking for this in the states, but cannot find it anywhere. They are getting ridiculous on ebay.
Did LG stop making them?
Might you know the official LG part number for the car dock?

i dont know the LG part number. The one i got is made by some one else for the LG WCP300 qi charger, i use the koolpuck qi charger in it as its a lot cheaper. The car holder is called SMART FIT2 cradle (TCD-C800P) and says designed by NEIM for LG Mobile
Not sure if its made by LG or NEIM as in the front it has a hologram sticker on the box saying FOR LG MOBILE. it was less than 25$ when i bought it, and i sent my video link to seller as was happy with product and he withdrew listing and later found all sellers had increased prices from 200$ to 600$ which is crazy. Very few sellers and hence probably demand has gone up. But the product is great and i want to buy another one too but not at these crazy prices! Hopefully soon the prices will come down once other sellers start selling the same seeing demand.
The suction is awesome and i dont think suction can get any better. One handed shouldnt be an issue as you put it in the holder when you sit in car before you drive and later only remove it when you get off. quick release button is efficient. I use the speakers on the phone as i dont like bluetooth headphones or ear pieces. The volume is loud enough for me to use google music and google navigation and phone calls come via the car speakers as mine is an older car where the music doesnt come through the car stereo and only phone calls come through car stero bluetooth connection.
I have the first and second version of the Exogear Exomount. While they have amazing suction to almost any semi flat surface AND work with cases , they do take 2 hands to put your phone in. I also have a TechMatte car mount which has a button in the middle of the back. When that button is pressed, when you put your phone in it, the mount closes down on the device. It has foam padding on each side, so it will not scratch your phone. The only issue you might have with it would be using big cases. My Spigen Bounce and Diztronic TPU fit in the mount snug, but I'm afraid that a bigger case might not fit.
Here's a link to it :

SwiftKey'ed from my White Sprint Note 3 via XDA Premium
I use this from Techmatte. Works great for me
I had an iOttie one touch for my previous phones. The suction cup mount works *very* well. Better than anything I've seen before.

To lock the phone you just place the phone in the dock and push it in. It pushes a button in the center and pulls the sides in, locking the phone in securely.
To remove, you hit two buttons on the side which releases the tension.
One handed in, one handed out.
Oh, and it's very sturdy. Doesn't bounce around like other cheaper mounts.
I ended up going with the slipgrip again. It works well for the Spigen case I ordered, so all is well.
