Default My T-Mobile/XDA case is Tuff-As-Nuts

http://www.tuff-as-nuts.com/O2-XDA.html

I have one more case review for you all! For a couple of months, I have been the lucky owner of a Pocket PC Phone Edition. I looked around for quite a while for a good case to carry it in but did not find what I was looking for. Personally, I feel that my Pocket PC Phone is different and I treat it differently from a regular Pocket PC. When I bring my Pocket PC, I usually also bring a couple of accessories such as CF cards, memory cards, a keyboard and so on. I carry these things in a Tamrac Digital case originally intended for digital cameras. I do leave my house without those things on occasion, but I very rarely leave home without my mobile phone. So, I needed something smaller than a case for digital cameras. Something that I could make a part of my clothing.

I found it. I found the best working case for mobile phones I have seen from Nutshell Corporation, New Zealand. Nutshell has been making high quality cases the last five years and made from REAL leather their cases certainly work. To prove it, Nutshell includes a three year Tuff-As-Nuts warranty.

My case has a belt loop, as you can see in the pictures. I can have the handsfree headset attached while keeping the phone in the case. I often wear black (black jeans, black belt, black t-shirt or sweater) so this black leather case could not be more perfect. However, you can get the case in red, white, navy blue, chocolate brown, tan brown, crocodile black, crocodile brown, or camouflage. The case works very well, has a good fit which means not too tight (the phone rings just so many times) and not too loose. Since I got the case, a few weeks ago, I never leave home without it or my Pocket PC Phone.

Highly recommended!

Default Great case

I received a Nutshell case from the last Pocket PC Summit and was extremely pleased. The fit and snug feeling to my PDA was impressive given the case wasn't necessarily designed for my handheld brand. I was very satisfied by the leather quality and protection offered from the thin and compact design.

I have bought a Nutshell holster with belt loop for my XDA some 2 months ago and I too am very pleased with it. Great craftsmanship, excellent quality leather. I also I never leave home without the holster and XDA Pocket PC Phone. I can recommend the holster to anyone. lympic:

This is a fine Basic Case. if you want a no frills type of case, this is it. I had one that I gave away (it was an "AND-me-down"). It is a simple yet effective case.

Default Found similar at CompUSA...

... for the Toshiba PocketPC. Works great, this is the most effective type of case/holster design I've come across so far.

It surely is one handy case for carrying all those rocks.

For what do you use them anyway?

Default In the me-too category

I've enjoyed using the black tuff-as-nuts greatly, to the point that I now have a tan brown one as well. Gots to be color coordinated :smilecolros:
