I have been looking for a holster/case for my HD... here are some ideas of what I think would be great:

(Holds it facing in, so there is less chance there will be damage to the display.)
What I think would be even better would be an case like the following (hard rubber or aluminum) AND would hold the phone facing inward (with a belt clip, holster) --

[One key feature I find lacking a lot with all these cases available is a belt clip]
Thoughts / Ideas?
(I already have the PDAir Aluminum one on the way, but looking for other thoughts and ideas)

Hello all,
I am just wondering if anyone knows of good cases for either the 2200/2400 extended batteries.. preferably one that includes pockets for credit card/cash too.. carrying a wallet around is kinda troublesome! thanks
Case?
I squeezed the 2s with a 2200amp battery into a book open type PDair leather case.
It's not completely fitted but better than others.
Cheers,
Sena and EB cases will fit
sena fits well just that it doesnt sit in the cradle too wel..
i actually did manage the squeeze teh 2400 into a brando hard case... can barely move the keyboard though... and the touch screen functionality is almost zero because of the tight fit.. haha not very practical at all.
the eb slipper case http://www.ebcases.com/Detail.bok?no=3301 looks quite good because it actually covers the bottom of the casing.
I used my XDA 1 with the issue O2 case and the thing I notice between that case and the likes of the nice brando rigid casing is that there are still quite a few bits of the unit that are exposed so if you drop it, bits of your PDA will still get damaged if it happens to fall wrong.
I know, it happened to me on more than one occasion.
from what I can see on the meagre picture on the EB case site, the bottom and sides are covered and the belt clip looks quite nice as well. no accidental clip releases there I think.
could someone tell me if the EB case has the camera button exposed for use, and is there a hole for the camera on this case? it's a bit ambiguous.
Hi I currently have the Krusell Cabriolet for my 8125, which makes using it like a phone very simple. However, pushing it out to use the keyboard without opening a bunch of progams because I pushed buttons in the process makes this a little suboptimal. I don't like the book cases or flip cases because I want my screen uncovered for my own convenience (I have screen protector film and I'm satisfied with that level of protection).
After doing some research, I like the simple styling of the crystal clear case for the 8125 (see links below). Because it snaps on individually on both sides, there is no obstruction to opening the keyboard, and there is no flap over the screen. It is not as elegant as a leather case and not as bulky or heavy as an aluminum case.
My only issue is that it doesn't appear that it is sold with a belt clip. From the photos, it appears that there is an opening to attach a belt clip. I checked the Boxwave site and though they sell clear cases with swivel belt clips on other models, they don't do with some, including this one.
So finally...my question is, does anyone know whether I would be able to purchase a belt clip separately or (1) does this particular case not support a belt clip, (2) it would not be advisable to use with a belt clip even if it was possible, due to design issues (e.g., snap on case not that durable or snug a fit and phone might pop off, etc.)?

Do these plastic cases cover the screen? It seems they do not, but it is not obvious from the pictures.
They dont' protect the screen. I have one for my mda, and left it on there for like 5 mins. It makes an already bulky phone bulkier. Plus it just feels cheap, especially when you're sliding the keyboard open and shut. But I got it for $10 shipped, so whaddya gonna do? Check ebay for cheaper prices.
(This was with the MDA case...but maybe the 8125 is made with some true craftsmanship so as to avoid these problems )
Thanks just what I needed
Just wanted to say thanks I have been looking for a case like this.
Take care
Cases don't fit 8125
Regarding http://www.daydeal.com/home.php?cat=2262, those cases fit MDAs but will not fit on an 8125. Although both have basically the same form factor, there are enough differences in the edges of the phones and mail/IE button locations that the case will not fit. I learned from experience.
Hi all
I haven't found any topic about this case, so here it is:
I recently bought a Tuff-Luv Executive leather pouch for my HTC HD.
http://www.amazon.fr/Tuff-Luv-Execu...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1235746989&sr=8-1
It is quite good, the phone fits very well in it (the camera hole is a bit too low but it is ok anyway). the phone can still be easily to removed from the case.
And it is one of the few leather cases for that phone, that has a hatch that opens to the lower part of the phone (sorry, can't find the words in English, you can see picture) so this is appreciable.
everything is easy to access: stylus, usb port even when the case is closed , volume control, audio jack. Plus it is less expensive than Noreve and Proporta cases (probably not the same durability, but this I can only tell after a while, as it seems to carry on well for now)
So I would gladly recommend it. Anyone else has this case ?
Hope it works out for you. Looks like a pretty well made case.
I'm still trying a few different cases for my HD.
First was the PDA Air book style but it didn't take too long for me to get concerned the two plastic arms that holds the unit in the case are not that secure. The unit can slide and as it is also a belt clip case last thing I wanted was my new shiny HD sliding out and bouncing on the pavement. :-(
Currently have a two piece case of eBay described as "black rubber". Really more of a plastic than rubber and it will do for the short term as only a few dollars.
Today I ordered a Krusell Orbit case. Has the removable flap which covers the screen. I am hoping that with the main section of the case still on the unit it will still fit in the cradle I have. (My cradle has a bit of space around the unit which I hope will accommodate the case)
Your case look good too but the flap attached to the rest of the case at the base so wouldn't allow the unit to sit in the cradle.
Has anyone found a leather flip case for the Pure?
The only ones I've seen that even come near are over $50
which to me is just too damm much for a case
Heres my take on it
Many complain the Pures a "fingerprint magnet"
OK Maybe so but I can't really see putting the clear "helicopter rotor"
body armour shell, because the don't protect against inpact damadge only scratch damage.
A flip type case that is not removed (I don't want a pouch type)
is one hand to open and you don't need to put the case somewhere while using it.
It will protect both the body and screen against impact and scratching
Leather is reasonably smooth so it wont snag going in and out of my pocket
(like the silicon ones can) Its a little thinner than the silicon and hard rubber ones too. I think same or more durable than Silicone.
Taking it a step further I am normally not a big fan of the belt clip
prefer the pocket but have been thinking about a modular mounting system
where I cold move the clip directly to a car kit or desktop kit for charging
Using the locking swivel clips would allow for landscape or regular viewing
And since the clip is the mounting point not an indentation or cup,
you would keep the case on even in the mount. the cover would just be flipped opened to the top or side when in use.
Now I don't claim to have created the idea I've seen a nice one
for the Diamond2 and a few extra swivel clips could adapt most
any car and desk cradle or mounts.
I've attached one one Ebay thats for the Diamond looks pretty good
But I've bought too many cases for Diamond where the clip just won't stay attached to the Pure.
The mfr of this case recommend I wait a few weeks the Pure Case is
coming in then. Like to hear pro's and cons from anyone who has a similar
flip style case. Also like to hear pro's & cons on which side the flip cover is on
Side top or bottom? Ideally you could use the camera while in the case
without the flip cover obscuring the lens folding arrangement or maybe a
hole in front and back covers so you could fold front over rear cover?
Also possibly cover fastens in half open position so a quick desktop easel.
Any thoughts?? what am I missing (aside for individual preference)
I've obviously got too much time on my hands <BG> and there are
not enough actual cases for the Pure that are available for purchase .
I Love the Pure/Topaz

Heres the one for the diamond2 I was looking at
Item number: 200403300227
I like the mounting (leather straps not a clip)
But I think one with a side flip/ book style makes using the camera easiest
I bought this cover from Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006Y5E07Y/ref=pe_175190_21431760_C1_cs_sce_dp_1
And it works ok, but it is a bit "loose" and the edges wander and separate a bit too much while holding/using it.
Does anyone else have a link to a similar silicon/TPU cover that has the IR port and is much tighter and slightly more difficult to remove/stays in place?
Thanks!

That's one of the problems with silicone covers on these big screen devices -- great for bumps and knocks but physical qualities of the material does not lend it to a good fit when much of the material is missing and cut out. To get the strength needed the case ends up a bit bulky. I have the case pictured and the cut outs to access ports are annoying because of the thickness of the material.
I would like to see something with a thin TPU interior combined with a thin silicone exterior thus utilizing the best qualities of both materials.
I bought this one:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007B6WSAQ/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
It's not as stiff as the TPU case i got for my 7 Plus, which means it's easier to get out, but it's also a little easier to push out of the way when you're near the card slots and IR. I do like that it's not as difficult to push the power and volume buttons like on that other case, though.
