Lesson learned, it looks like it was for the HTC Touch Pro 2. Dangit....Just wanted to share with you guys to make sure you get one that fits your particular model.
There seems to be a problem with vendors understanding the T-Mo TP2 has a different form factor than the Euro version. I am returning my cradle for the same reason. Be careful when buying an accessory that it will fit your US model. First time I have seen this problem with phones. Your TP2 is a special device ... I like mine very much. Pity that we have to be the ones to tell them their products don't fit our phones...

this is the one i got.
It's because the T-Mobile "Touch Pro 2" isn't really a Touch Pro 2 like you can get from everywhere else, it's a slightly-altered version.
Thank T-Mobile. This way, you can get all your accessories direct from them! How great will that be! It really is better for everyone.

i almost bought that one, but i didn't because we don't have the front camera, so that hole made me suspicious.
only T-mobile have the entire phone remodeled... sort of
while Sprint/Telus versions widened the bottom end where they added a 3.5mm jack, so some of the rubber cases won't fit
However I just recently ordered a slide-in pouch from pdair which SHOULD work on ALL TP2s... because it's just it... a pouch... no fitting needed, just enough space to slide the phone in... or any other thing that has the same dimension... sort of
this one by the way:

I hate those case for slide up phones. The phone is already big as it is. With that case it will add weight and size to it.
I decided to use my phone just the way it is and get a hip case (EASECASE ) and call it a day. I will try and be VERY careful not to drop it.
i just bought a gel case from tmobile for 12 bucks. it adds a couple mm to the overal size of the device but it feels good in the hands and isnt slippery like the phone with out it. the only color they had was black and its not on they're website, only in the stores right now. i am quiet pleased with it.

lol, i am using mine with my tmobile dash (c720) case (with belt clip)
Man Thanks alot for being the guinea pig, SORRY no intent to insult you but I almost bought the pdair case. They are nice and alot of people have said good things about them. I was one click away from purchasing the case for my T-mobile touch pro 2 and i stumbled upon your thread. Its a shame that we are so limited to what we can put this beast in. I currently have my procilla ( thats what I call her lol) in my old sprint mogul ppc 6700 case.

Accessories from T-mobile!? ROFLMAO!
I may be pressing my luck here but anyone found a snap on plastic case for the G-tablet? Or know a place where I can have one custom made?
I'm assuming your looking for a shell type case? Me too
I would imagine it may be some time before we see something like that. With all the tabs coming out, manufacturers will be picking the big ticket items and making them for those. Until viewsonic fixes issues and makes this thing hot outta the box, we're still gonna be little fish in the big pond.

I did get word that here are in the process of being made/designed and I have had pics for a week or so. Among other things, I choose NOT to bring things up until I have firm knowledge and/or have an them in hand that I can unload. For example; I don't want to say that I MAY have more docks within the week and them not show. I think it's better (and more respectful) to discuss it when it's in hand.
If your like me (and most of you are) when you see something that you want, especially something new and innovative, you WANT IT NOW!!! I am the same way and I'd rather not give false hope to anyone here.
With that being said feel free to pass the word and keep an ear to the ground. I am currently working on more docks (with extra ac adapters) and a verity of cases; leather with and without snaps as well as the 'shell' encasing that you saw above.
Again, I prefer to keep things quiet and to not have to keep up with PM's (and potentially lose any) and to not risk putting my foot in my mouth.
With that being said, I will make it public knowledge AS SOON as I have ANY product in hand that you may want. Also, as of right now; I strictly plan on selling anything I receive at my cost to XDA members. I'm not here to make any profits but only to contribute where I can. If I can't develop or help solve programming issues at least I can front some money and get stuff here for us.
Hope all that makes sense?

I am working to get anything and everything possible here is the states. From what I know those 'shell' cases aren't complete yet. I have a couple of docks and I am expecting a few leather (or PU) cases in a couple weeks. I try to lay low until I actually have firm knowledge or something in my hand as not to create false expectation.
Hope that make sense?
I would love one of those plastic shell cases. Whoever is working on these ought to consider putting some type of stand in the case, similar to the Archos 101.
Any news on this Steve. I see that one supplier has them listed on Alibaba, but after contacting them, they said they were looking for a new supplier.
We designed the Folding leather case for viewsonic G-tablet,Zpad Technically, it can fully protect your Pad anytime. it is Portable and practicable..
NICE!!! Where can we see/buy this? Any link?
Is this available for purchase?
Hello,
Looks great and i would love to purchase one if they are available for sale. Can you please post a link for purchasing if available

It doesn't seem to have the one posted above.
What it does have are pretty much sold out
Clip Case
I picked up a clip case that is on its way. You can see the case at electroniccrap.com
I'll post some photos when it comes in. Hoping these cases are as nice as everyone has made them seem!
Looks nice, good work man.
I would like one of those cases as well but it's showing as sold out and I can't get to the internal XDA pages as this account is too new.
Is this the exact same one Steve is carrying? The OP says it's leather while the P3 is synthetic.
Looks like some nice ones coming out...
Can't wait to get my hands on the gTablet.
No access to market either to compare this to the one Steve sells.
The market restriction is interesting. I guess it is meant to encourage people to post and be active on the forums.
The only one I see in stock is the P4. But I can not really tell, does that one have a stand built in to it or is it just the way the picture is taken? Anyone know?
Anyone heard when Steve's shipment is going to come in?
I am in the ATL and got a chance to run by Case-Mate's headquarters today. Got some good info. they have altered all of their Galaxy S2 cases to have 1 cutout on the top and they are now universal for the AT&T model and the European model. They have the POP cases and Tough cases ready to go. The website was not updated yet though.
I grabbed a Tough Case today. I was surprised to see it is actually thinner than the Pop and the Otterbox Commuter (they had one for comparison). It has nice rounded edges and great feel in the hand. I have tried the AGP, Ballistic, Pop and Belkin and none of them worked for me. This one seems to hit the spot. I will try and post pics later.

Guys, just call them on their 800 #. They have a whole team of CSRs that will process your order right away. I went into the call center and they handled my order for me. That is the reason for my post. They have hem available now with the large cutout on top. All their GS2 cases are now modified. I saw black and white Pop cases modified, Tough Cases modified and the Barely Theres are already ok.
I like it better than the Otterbox for this phone. The rest of my family all have Defenders for their IP4s. I am a huge Otterbox fan. I tried the Tough for my Inspire and IP4 and did not like it nearly as much as the Commuters for both of those phones. The GS2 Tough is a different story. I like it much better than the Commuter. Its thinner and has better grip. Fit is awesome.
I am on the road traveling and cannot take any pics because the SGS2 is my only camera. I guess I could takes pics of just the case an upload them.
pics of just the case will do! thanks!
I just called and also did the live chat online and both people told me that they won't be available until early November .

Here are a few pics. The case is awesome. I have been using it on the phone while traveling and its working out great. Had a co-worker comment on the fell of it when I handed him my phone. Buttons are easier to press than without the case. The case is fairly hard to install since it is so form fitting. Surprisingly it does not add much bulk.
To the poster above that contacted them. Sorry but you got an uninformed rep. The only way we figured this out was by physically getting the cases from their warehouse. I ask them to bring out the cases so I could see if I could alter them to make them work with my phone. To her surprise and mine, they already were set up to work for the AT&T versions. Pics prove it below and I did not touch this case. Hopefully you can tell. No reason to lie.

I talked to a rep and I also talked to a person in live chat, so I got two of them that are uninformed. I also sent them an email again making sure. I want to make sure I am sent the right one the first time. I am going to email them again. Do you mind if I use your picture for reference in my email?
My GF got a pink "Pop!" and it was for international version so she called and got the same sort of response. That they don't and won't have any cases except the ones that are at the AT&T store because they signed an exclusivity agreement to only sell the cases in stores or some BS. Bottom line is that they fed her the same thing, no cases for the AT&T SGS2 for a while. Whatever. Case looks good though bud, I might get one of those when they do come out to replace my Pop! as it is just a little big.
I don't mind if you use my pic at all. I will say after reading abacon15's post, I am beginning to wonder if I was the one that had the uninformed rep. She may have sold me a case she was not supposed to sell.
One more thing, my case came in the normal green and clear Case-Mate box. It was not AT&T branded packaging. No screen protector though. Not sure if it should have had one of those. I haven't looked on the website.

I get my upgrade in December and am looking to get the Galaxy S 2. I am using a Tough Case on my Inspire and love it. It has proven itself to as an extremely good case. I had it drop and hit concrete 5 times and the only thing it did was put a crack in the polycarbonate hardshell right next to the flash. I also work with tires all day and I would need this case for protection.

Really? I looked on Ebay Canada and US and it is pretty much all just variations of the IVSO case. The one I really liked on this site is this one.
The HOCO case looks really decent. They don't seem to have a tab pro version anywhere in North America though.
I just ordered that one from them this morning so I guess I'll find out. It's from china though so who knows how long this'll take to get to me.

The case and keyboard are perfect. Nice quality, fits perfectly and works just as well. Well worth the wait and money.
From the photos it looks like a generic BT keyboard of the correct size, with a leather cover around it, rather than an integrated keyboard/case as on the Surface keyboards and Zagg folios/covers. Correct?

Sorry about that. Yes the case is great! It looks and feels like real leather inside and out. It fits extremely well. The only downside is that there isn't a magnet to hold it closed but that only bothered me initially. It stays closed really well.
