Case Recommendations - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories

Anyone recommend a good case that doesnt bloat the phone out but is still a good case that you can use the phone without having to remove it from the case. Did that make sense?? not sure
Anyway there doesnt seem to be many cases available yet so i guess wizard users can recommend a manufacturer and style that i can keep an eye out for to see if they release a TyTn case
Cheers

iPod socks
I am using an ipod sock to protect my TyTN. It fits perfectly inside and I can put it on my pocket. IMHO the shipped leather case with magnets bloats the phone too much and I can't put it on my pocket, also I don't like magnets near my device

Cute socks!
I must say that the leather case that came with the TyTN is probably the best bundled case I've ever had. I'm still going to replace it for all-sides protection, but at least I can feel good about using it in the meantime....

---

I don't think its real leather. more like faux leather to me. doesn't have that nice smell to it.

---

I sent an email to SENA to ask if they will be making a case for the TyTN soon. They replied that if the TyTN becomes popular in the US, they will consider it!
I have one from them for the BA and it is beautifully made.

---

Proporta are doing a flip and book case for the TyTn HERE.
Unfortunately there's no image. But 4winmobile have a review and loads of piuctures of the same case for the Wizard HERE
I would think it'd be the same bar slightly different sizing.

Noreve should be releasing one today ... personally I think it will slip.
I have one of theirs for my Archos 5100 which is superb. My only concern is that their 9100 case and Krussells have not protection for the bottom corners.
The second generation 9100 case from Piel Frama (Expansys rebrand as Chairmans) was superb and did protect the whole device. Piel Frama tell me they are waiting for a device to use to design the case.
Fingers crossed.
Paul.

Best case
I'm using the belt clip leather case that I used to use with my Treo 650.
This is an old model that had no magnets (that cause troube) with credit cards and so.
And it fit's just right.
I don't know if this is still available, i tried to find it on the palm's site and I cousd not find it.

I don't mind the leather case somewhat bloating out, however, I am bias to a leather case with the "opening/flap" on the vertical topside rather than on the horizontal long side. This is because as I place the phone back in the horizontal case, the slider opens more often causing the slider to get "loose" as time draws by. However, i do require a swivel mechanism on the leather case because i prefer it to be against my belt in a horizontal position while having the opening/flap on the vertical end. Unfortunately, the swivel mechanism breaks easily after 3-4 months of use and i wish there was a horizontal case with a permanent clip and a vertical end opening/flap.

I have a wizard and I bought a Krusell Cabriolet. I absolutely love it because it allows me quick access to my device and doesn't weigh much and isn't bulky.
I ummed and aaahed about a case for a long time because none on the market could properly handle the keyboard. Eventually I got tired of waiting and even though I have to remove the Wizard from my Cabriolet to use the keyboard, this only takes a few seconds. There is still nothing on the market that handles the keyboard, so don't hold your breath.
I've now also ordered the carholdikit accessory so I can clip it into my car quickly and use my wizard with a GPS for sat nav.
If you want a low profile case which provides the minimum of protection yet still gives you access, this is the best one around.
I can't be sure it will fit the TyTn, but because the tytn is longer, not wider, it should be OK. Also, the cabriolet has no protection on the top, so out of the cases reviewed below, it's the most likely to suit a TyTn.

Currently using my old P900 case which is the Krusell 'Dynamic' model, fits the phone perfectly but the button holes are in the wrong places so I have to take it out of the case to use it - if only Krusell would make a version for the TyTn.
Looking for an alternative I found this one at IDS in Hong Kong which looks quite good.
At $25.00 USD including free delivery I thought I'd give it a try, it should arrive later this week.
They also do a Gel Skin just in case thats what anyone's looking for...
Update:
I received the case and have posted a more in depth review here

Thanks for that. Giving both of these a try (ordering as we speak), as they are exactly what I've been waiting for.

Nice! I've just ordered a gel skin for my TyTN 8)

---

Yeah that IDS one looks brilliant. Let us know how you get on with it, as i'll probably order one on your reviews.

If you want to go vertical, the RIM brand Leather Swivel Holster for 8700 Blackberry Series fits and works very well with the TyTN. I had been using it with the S200 for awhile. With the S200 it was little loose, but not too much so. With the TyTN it fits like it was custom made for it. I would point out that mine is well broken in from use. The cover wraps over the top of the unit and attaches with a very secure magnetic snap. I like the vertical case as it takes less space up on your belt. There is a ratcheting swivel that lets the unit move on your belt as needed but does not spin freely.
It is very well made and lined in some type of soft velvet like material. It holds the TyTN very securely. To take it out of the case, you can either give a slight push up from the open corners on the bottom of the case or you can take it out by grabbing it on the top at the two cutouts on both sides of the case. It has a well constructed built-in belt clip that securely will hold it on you belt without a lot of worry about falling off. It is constructed in a manner that keeps the case close to your belt and doesn't stickout excessively as may of the swivel cases do.
I got the case at an airport shop but found this link where it is on sale right now for $21.99 not including shipping:
http://www.blackberrysource.com/store/catalog.asp?item=285
I have had a lot of cases over the years including some high end models. For the money, I consider this to be one of the best that I have purchased.
