Anyone know where I can find a nice, lined, sleeve I can put my phone in? I carry my phone in my purse most of the time, and would like something to slide it into to prevent keys and whatnot from scratching the case. I am not particularly fond of the bulky (and often ugly) snap-on covers. I just want something simple! I love the little sleeve that comes with the Palm Pre.. something like that would be perfect.
I tried some of the blackberry sleeves in an electronics store. They seemed to be ok, but I needed a vertical clip-on. Hope this helps.

Oh! that has got to be the nicest sleeve ive seen so far!! only on pre- order at the mo, soon i hope.
I got a couple of cheap sleeves from e-bay, I just looked but i can't find the one i'm using now to give you the link, sorry.
That Sena sleeve is very nice. I'll have to bookmark that and check back later to see if they come in stock. Thanks a bunch!
I picked up the sleeve when I had the Imagio, and it still works for the my TP2 although it will take some time to stretch it out
Lined Sleeve
Got to T-Mobile coorporate store and get one. The last one I bought was on sale for $3.99. It was a microsuede inner with a nylon outer in black. I love it and it fits great. Its just a universal accesory.
I just picked up one of these for my phone. Very slim, probably won't protect it from a drop, but if you are looking for some slim, basic protection -- these do the trick and are pretty cheap as well since I like to carry my phone in my pocket.

I preordered the Sena. Looks like exactly what I want. Found a 20% off coupon code. Worked with the Preorder. Make it ~20 + shipping ~ $25 total.

Thanks for the T-Mobile store recommendation. I still want that Sena sleeve, but who knows when those will be available. I swung by the local T-Mobile store and they had a whole rack of sleeves.. they didn't seem to be for any specific phone model. It fits the TP2/Tilt2 perfectly though. And only $8 for the one I grabbed.

Yep. I ordered a black. The original pre-order was until the 19th (today). Looks like they got the date right. It's now showing in stock and ready to ship within 24 hours. When I get it I'll be sure to take some high quality pics with the ole SLR and get up a review for everyone.
Excellent, thanks!

Well right now I am using a generic neoprene sleeve until something comes around I like... But I figured we could discuss cases here!
Expansys seems to have a decent selection of OEM cases (although they all look to be not available until 6/1)
www.expansys-usa.com/s.aspx?search=htc flyer
So have y'all spotted something you like?
Sent from my HTC Flyer P512 using XDA Premium App
Edit: A bit more organized case thread has been started here! In order to keep things simplified I recommend posting directly to that thread!
I bought one off Mobile Fun - the clear one that protects the whole device - bottom and sides. It is more of a glove that a case. It adds some thickness to the flyer so that you have to force it into the white case provided with the device from htc.
I will be looking to buy one that can stay on while working on the flyer. Just like you have observed, the better cases are not yet available.
I ordered this one from Best Buy for Business...
http://www.bestbuybusiness.com/bbfb/en/US/adirect/bestbuy?cmd=catProductDetail&showAddButton=true&productID=BB11281850
That one looks nice, I am going to have to wait and see what we get here in store!

Looks like the official HTC case the P S600 has room for the stylus, even though there are no pictures to show this. I have ordered one from Expansys.

I just got my flyer yesterday from bestbuy and it did not come with the white case. Was the flyer supposed to come with that? I wonder if bestbuy could do anything for me?
Anyone know if the journal type one from expansys has a cut out for the camera?

No pen, no case... from Best Buy package. Not sure I would like the white sleeve, though.
White case a bit cheap looking, would have preferred black. But does have loop for stylus.
Looks like we in Europe pay more but get case and stylus.
Sent from my HTC Flyer P510e using XDA Premium App
Here in Europe you get the Flyer with the bag and stylus included. I didn't assume it to be different elsewhere. I have to admit, the bag is far from being beautiful, though it has a separate slot for the pen on the outside. I had seen some yet unavailable but solid seeming cases from Expansys, but I am eager to learn there are some really cool cases out there. Keep them coming!

looks real nice
Except it is not good for protection from dust. Wish it had a zipper.
Nice
That Navitech case looks nice, I just found this, it is a silicone skin that would be nice for keeping the back safe! Although it wouldn't do a whole lot for a drop I'd imagine, and with a tablet a nice folio/wallet style is what I would want!
Oh yeah and they have a couple of TPU cases on that site!

That's the one I got - the clear type. Its okay, except it cannot go into the htc official case - the white one, unless you force it in. Getting it out is an even harder job.
I actually picked up a case meant for the Galaxy Tab and it fits quite well.
The case was at a Verizon store - I happened to be there for another reason and asked about the Tab cases.
It is a little snug, but it should stretch out some.
I've got an account with VZW, so they gave me a discount - total cost was about $20, retail is $24.99
I'm too newly registered to post a URL, so go to Verizon's website and search for "46466" - Leather Sleeve for Samsung Galaxy Tab.
The m-edge case for the noon---the one with the internal pen holder--fits Flyer perfectly and doubles as stand in landscape. I will use this one for a while.

Sorry, which one is it?
If you happen to pick up a case for the Flyer, please post a few pictures. Store images never give a good picture of hwo it will actually work.

Thanks! This looks like a keeper. I like the low profile sleeve... just needs a pen loop.
I find the smart cover case of my iPad 2 is ideal for typing in "landscape keyboard" mode. I haven't found any cases on eBay etc that do this except some really bulky/fugly ones. Has anyone found anything elegant/thin along the lines of the iPad 2 smart cover yet? I realize the GT7.7 doesn't have the logic to turn off when the cover is closed, I can live without that!
The original Samsung OEM case/cover looks very nice but doesn't seem to stand on its own in landscape keyboard mode

As long as the surface is not overly smooth, the Samsung Original Book Cover case does stand in landscape (thanks to rubber strips that adds friction). See pics. May not *look* especially stable, but it does seem to hold out nicely.
Ironically, I would like to see a case that allows my tab to stand in portrait mode, since I'm more likely to read that way. Never seen one before.
I have a case similar to the official iPad1 case. Very slim and snug fit. Doesn't add much to the size of the device, keeping the original slimness. Its faux leather on the outside and suede cloth inside. It has the same standing mechanism as the iPad1 case too. Comes in a few colours, I got the brown one.
I've been looking for exactly this type of case and was amazed they are made. I believe I can post images now and so I'll put some up later.

A similar one popped up on eBay last night for $25. Seller is in HK of course. What site did you find this on?
Tmall.com taobao.com
chinese webiste
that one cost RMB120
I found it at http://www.minihotsale.com/rock-sam...blet-light-cool-folio-leather-case_p1435.html
$35 shipped, not terrible. I like that it doesn't intrude on the bezel the way some of the other folios do.
Thanks cyuet for pointing me in the right direction! Will advise once received.
looks good

Thats the one. I personally prefer cases that give all round protection and this case does that. I find cases that only grip the corners can come loose over time, and badly made ones have terrible tolerances and may not even adequetly hold the device.
Thanks

I also think that a case like the smart cover for the ipad2 is ideal for the tab 7.7. I have seen those for the 10.1 and 8.9 on ebay, and I am pretty sure they will pop up for the 7.7 soon.
Nothing from Zenus or SGP yet?

UK based case for £8.99
I just received this case i bought from ebay for the bargain price of £8.99 in the UK and delivered from the UK too.
Very pleased with it! I've tried the official case but this is much better. It even has magnets on the flap to stop it flapping open when carrying.

Hi.
In thinking about buying one of the gel skins off eBay USA. I've just got the tablet and I'm finding it a bit plasticky and hollow sounding. I'm thinking that a skin might deaden the sound a bit.
Can anyone vouch for the quality of them?

Looks good and US $11.99 is not a bad price. Amazon.com has the same item labeled "by Sony" in black (ASIN: B007BXZI2O) and purple (ASIN: B007BXZYPA) for US $7.99 with free Amazon Prime Membership 2-day shipping. Non-Prime standard 3-day shipping is probably US $2.99, but I'm guessing the cost.
Hi Cat.
I'll be shipping to the UK so I need to factor in shipping. The Amazon one just looks like the same one off ebay - it doesn't look Sony branded.
For some bizarre reason I can't find them in the UK at all. Very strange.
They are both roughly the same price so I'll just choose either.
Thanks.

I ordered one from Amazon.com and will receive it tomorrow evening. After I install it on the tablet, I will post here to let you know whether or not the skin covers the IR sensor.
Edit: I received and installed the skin. Fits well. None of the tablet's features (power plug, buttons, speakers, etc.) are blocked. And yes, there is a hole for the IR sensor.
Hi Cat.
Please tell me what you think of the skin as I'm close to ordering one myself. Please tell me if its a tight fit (a must) and whether you think that it makes the tablet feel too think.
I really want one to make the tablet feel more solid in the hand. As much as I love Google and hate Apple I really miss the build quality of my old iPad 1. I also think HC is an abomination of an OS - What were Google thinking!!
Look forward to your report and pics would be nice if possible

I purchased a black skin (ASIN: B007BXZI2O) from Amazon.com, so go to their web site to see photographs. I like the skin. Its color is a perfect dark charcoal. It fits very well and tighly hugs the tablet's form. When I am handling the tablet, the skin does not feel like it is going to fall off and the back part does not feel floppy. It has a good industrial rubber feel and it makes the tablet feel more solid and protected, which is a plus for me because I am an industrial controls engineer and I frequently use my tablet in the field. The skin has openings in all the right places and does not block any of the tablet's features. I feel purchasing the skin was a wise choice.
Thanks for the update.
Looks like I will be purchasing one ASAP
I've just tried to purchase it off Amazon but they don't ship to the UK.
I'll have to purchase the one off ebay. It looks the same but you never know until you get it.
Just bought the one off ebay. Probably take about 2 weeks to get here. It was just over £11 with the exchange being as it is so can't grumble at the price.
Cheers.
Looks great, might look into something like this.

Yes, I have a cradle and no, the tablet will not fit into the cradle if the skin is on it. But the skin is easy to remove and put back on (I do it carefully, taking my time), so it is not a problem for me.
Hi all.
I got the skin in the post the other day. I'm not too impressed with it TBH. It is not the snuggest of fits - its a bit loose.
I don't think I'll use it TBH. I'm getting used the plastic nature of the Tablet S.
Cheers.

I'm also interested in buying a rubber skin for my Tablet S, and this one is the only one I can find (at eBay and Amazon). One user here says it's great and another says it's not so great... Anyone else has experience with these?

I purchased a Black Silicone Skin from Amazon.com six weeks ago and so far it's held up nicely. I remove the skin nightly so I can put my tablet in its cradle and put the skin back on every morning, and today it still fits as snug as it did the first time I put it on my tablet.

For those that don't use Amazon for whatever reason, here it is on ebay for $9.99 free shipping, unlike amazon where shipping is free only if you spend $35 or more. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Google-Moto...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item27fc6b95a0
Nice case, but I'm really hesitant to buy another one. I only have 20 right now.
Btw, does it come with a built in screen protector? I hate those.
No, just a regular case, it has a black rubber case that goes on, then the hard plastic back cover
