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...

Where did you get it?
same here, got one from a seller in HK for 6 bucks shipped to US
doesn't fit.
anyone wants the TP2 case made for non tmobile tp2 can send me a PM, pay for shipping and it is yours.

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!
Hi, I realize that there are a number of posts on this topic. Since there are a number I thought I would summarized it again.
I'm looking for a soft shell case / body shell. The leather cases are too bulky for around the house. No need to prop it up for viewing. Doesn't matter to me if it's rubber, silicone, plastic. hard or soft.
I'd buy one of these but I don't have a need for the other 99.
aliexpress.com/fm-store/102789/210696571-397976411/wholesale-New-designed-G-tablet-Protective-shell-GEL-shell-case-special-design-100pcs-lot.html
Thanks,

Have you tried messaging him ?
I figured "partners" meant they would also only sell in bulk. I was hoping someone knew of a web store.
Thanks,

The wholesaler did reply. He says that he can't ship just a single unit, which he states in his ad. He gave me a email address of a contact in Texas.
I'm looking for something a bit easier. I'll just wait until they start to appear online.

Any luck finding a silicone case?
I just emailed aliexpress.com to see if they know of any US merchants selling these, if they have all the cutouts it would be great!
I you get any good news, I'd definitely be interested in one of these. I cannot find one anywhere.
Believe me.... If they are out there, I will find them and get them here asap!

I have been checking for a while now
I knew it was just a matter of time
Now they have them in!!!
Poundland uk now have a great adjustable stand.
Rubber/plastic coated so as not to scrape the table tops and give a bit of stability.
Tried one - great, got another for the vega.
Maybe not the prettiest thing in the world, but does the job very well.
EXCELLENT FOR A POUND.
Just might get a couple more before they are gone.
Anyone else got one yet???

Ugh, hate stylii, not sure about a keyboard I actually like the touch screen ones.
£1 screen protector would be nice though, the ones I've seen are bloody costly for what they are. (£26?)
I also have a neoprene case that I got from poundland too. Okay so its lime green but its the right size.

I would be the opposite, £1 keyboard would be good, but wouldn't have a screen protector in the house. And they do sell protectors for the ipad (eghhh) stick one of them on.
Also try poundworld if there is one of them close, basically the same shop.

Picked one up in Hemel Hempstead, thanks for letting us know! It's branded as an iPad stand even though it will fit most tablets. Wondering who can afford an iPad but shops in poundland...
Just to let people know I picked a couple up in the Milton Keynes store today.
They had about 10 left.
Picked mine up in Poundland Watford today finally!! There was about 8 on the shelf.

Does the stand allow for portrait viewing? I use my AV soley for reading digital comics, especially during my breaks at work. Currently (and don't laugh because it works) I use a couple of bananas stacked to support the tablet, which gives an ideal viewing angle, without glare from overhead lights, or seeing your ugly mug in the reflection!

That case is more like the "bag" type. They have one in the Sony store made by stm, but this http://store.sony.com/webapp/wcs/st...toreId=10151&langId=-1&partNumber=STMDP030001 is the one im talking about. Its been backordered for a while now, though its showing an estimated ship date of 11/16 now! Too long of wait for me.

I noticed one of the photos is a misrepresentation. The one that's positioned so you can type. We know the screen doesn't rotate when you have the thick part of the tablet at the bottom.

Thanks for posting this, I have been looking as well. I noticed the first case you mention got a 4 star review on Amazon, one star removed because the case blocks the IR. Please let us know if that issue is present on this case as well. If not, I'll order that one too.

Going by one of the pictures, the opening for IR seems to be very big (instead of a pin hole). That's why I went with this one. We'll see.

I just got the ultra slim version, and I have to twist the tablet at an odd angle to use the IR feature. I'm going to return it.

I think this version may solve the problem, since there is a wide opening at the top.

Has anyone gotten a look at the Best Buy case that comes free with the Note pre-order?
I was wondering if there is a screen protector included. I'm going to assume there is none unless someone has seen one.
Assuming it's the same as the international (which I believe it is), I don't see a screen protector.

Thanks for the link, that was the worst review ever, but it was good to see what I'm getting. It looks very similar to the pics on BB. I really want a rugged case(i.e. Ballistic, Trident, Otterbox). But I'll take what I can get.

Best Buy rep
I stopped by best buy and asked the rep if the case would support NFC she looked at me like a deer in headlights and had no idea what NFC was she got another rep and asked him and he said NFC is on the Note but does not work yet I I told him I knew that already and wanted to know if the free case worked with NFC since the antenna for it is on the back of the case that comes with it he had no idea and asked his manager 15mins later the manager came out and said he had no idea yet he would think it would but could not say for sure since they aren't here yet he tried to find more info on his computer but found nothing so Best Buy doesn't even know yet the free case isn't turning out to be that much of a plus anymore.
The fact it's a flip case basically eliminated any interest I might have had in the BB deal for the Note. I can understand having a flip case for a tablet....but for a phone, I would find it as a hassle. I'm still gonna settle for a regular case, most likely a TPU one.

We got no info on the actual flip case from corporate. It was a deal struck with samsung and bby corporate and has nothing to do with the retail level associates. Right now they are sitting in a warehouse waiting for distribution. Im sure they will be in before release. If they are there by wednesday I can give everyone a definite answer. After that Im on vacation
I doubt these were made for the ATT model. If they are the ones that were already made, it will not work as the nfc is not in the back like the ATT model.
One the bright side it was free and nfc is not yet enabled.

Same here. Flip case with a pen device just screams of the original Palm PDA devices.
No way I can bring myself to use one of those again.

The people at Best Buy Mobile are way beter than the people at Best Buy they let me know my Note was in although the free Flip case was not they still could not tell me if it has the NFC contacts on it since they have not seen them but were very nice even though I have been pestering them for days guess I just have to wait and see don't know if I should get a case off internet that has the NFC contacts or wait till the free flip case is in

I played with one at AT&T for about 20 minutes today and I really didn't like the flip case on it. It felt very cheap. I've played with another one from someone's international Note and it was much sturdier. I hope the one Best Buy gives out is more solid, but I got a feeling its not.

Felt like cheap cardboard to me. Like I could have easily bent or snapped it. The one I played with for the international note had hard plastic and looked nice as well. Hopefully the best buy one will be like the international one and not the cheap crap I saw at the AT&T store.
