I heard the phones were similar dimensions...
Kaiser is a little thinner and the controls are in slightly different places so most TyTn cases won't do very well with TyTn II.
If you need a good case Nutshell is IMHO the best of the best http://tuff-as-nuts.com/index.asp?PageAction=Custom&ID=10

You are pointing to pouches, wich is slightly different from CASE. You get one in the box anyway...
First TyTN case don't fit on the kaiser - I've tested 5 different ones.
And the bed news is - there no proper case anounced for kaiser

I just wanted to offer up helpful info on an alternative since the question was answered but the OP still needed a carrying solution, one better than the included horizontal pouch.
I visited my local Fry's Electronics yesterday & found a camera case that's just the right size for the Kaiser. The price is right at $6.99, and it doesn't add much thickness, making it good for pocketability. I keep my phone in my front pants pocket, so a thin case without a thick belt loop or hook is just what I need.
I'd prefer a custom fitted Piel Frama or Krusell, but they won't be available for a month or two -- in the meantime, the camera case will do just fine.
I am using a universal case from PDair and am quite happy with it. The phone fits fairly snug when new but after a few days of use, it becomes very comfortable to use.
haha funny how everyone is with AT&T in USA
I have the SEIDIO holster for my 8525 and my TyTN II arrived today. I am happy to announce that the TyTN II fits in this holster *almost* like a glove. The TyTN II is a little thinner .. BUT because the TyTN II and the holster have a rubber coating, it doesn't move. As far as i'm concerned it's a keeper!
Im using the palm polycarbonate case for the treo 680 it fits like a glove no rattling only problem is the palm logo on the outside
Since this is so new, it seems there are not many cases out there yet. The really neat ones are for the 8525, suppliers like: Krusell,seidio,beyza are not up to speed yet, or Am I wrong? Any one have any ideas on when there maybe releases?
I honestly love the one that came with the Kaiser. However, I heard that cases with magnetic flaps cause the Kaiser to automatically turn on since there is a magnetic connection to the slider keyboard. I'm not too familiar with this issue, but did read this somewhere.
I don't love the sideways case with velcro and non-springloaded belt hook, currently using a leather magnet flap case for a generic flip. Mine does not turn the phone On, depends on where the magnets are located as ones that are close to the keyboard's "open sensor" can turn the phone On. I'm rooting for Pocket Solutions to make one.
I'm watching the "Kaiser Accessories" area for the mose current info... as should you.
I put my Kaiser on my jeans' pocket with no cases (except screen protector).

You`re braver than me
Well, it should be fine inside the pocket, and the jeans is thick enough to protect the Kaiser and soft enough to not scratch the surface.
The only downside is dirt inside the pocket, but like I said, I always wipe it out clean (usually in the screen area). It will be the same in the case, screen get dirt.
My wife quite jealous the way I treat my Kaiser Because I will wipe clean the table, take a clean paper or tissue and put it like a carpet before I put my Kaiser ...

Krussel will release the ORBIT case for the TyTN II during October.
PDAir have just released a couple of Kaiser cases, and there are a few similar cases on eBay. Piel Frama have told me they'll have one in the next month or so.
4ustuff is a Hong-Kong based wholesaler that has a lot of Kaiser stuff, some of which may make its way into the retail channel.
on the Pocket Solutions website they're offering a fullbody "SkinGuardz" for the Tytn II...only problem is it's not in stock...i prefer a solution like this vs. a case (although one drop on the ground might force me to change my mind).
I used a slightly altered PDAir case for the Hermes (i cut all the clear plastic off over the keyboard and used Velcro to attach the phone to the case - worked really well. But with the Kaiser I`m leaning more toward the pouch type case, or perhaps a thin silicone case, but Ive not seen one of those yet.
Just Wireless Case
I bought a case at Staples yesterday from a company called Just Wireless. It is for a Blackberry/ Treo 750, but the TyTN II fit's in it perfectly. It is a holster type and it has a slim belt clip. You can probably find them at Walmart, Target, and others like that as the case retails for about $18.00. (picture taken with my TyTN II attached)
It may not be the best case, but it does the job for someone like me who is on traveling all the time and needs quick access.

Another option is this camera case -- I picked one up at my local Fry's a couple weeks back for $6.99. I see they've lowered the online price to below $5 -- that's going to be hard to beat.
i am a huge fan of gizmoskin.com if you read reviews on the cases you will see they use a very high grade leather. looks amazing and holds up like a champ. i have not seen their equal except for very very expensive designer cases. have been using their cases for he last 3 years
i asked them about a kaiser case and they said thy would look into it. if you want a nice case shoot them an email and say your interested.
I would love this one! (Cause I'm paranoid and had a Metal one for my Wizard...) but I can't seem to find anyone that carries them...

How is the case that comes with the Kaiser
I hope the one that comes with the Tilt is the same
As far as free cases go the one that comes with the Kaiser is excellent, very soft. I am waiting on a holster because I don't like taking the phone out the case while driving.
I use the holster I had for my old 8525. It fits my new TyTN ll perfectly.

In my opinion Krusell make quality cases which are practical. I bought one for my Vaio I. recently the clip broke, due to rushing through a doorway and having the phone yanked off the clip.
Krusell said send it back with proof of purchase and they will replace beacuse it comes with A LIFETIME gurantee.

Hi all,
I have a case question for you. And it deals with a specific type of case, so that's why I didn't use one of the other threads. I'm looking for a pouch for my Tilt. Like the Krussell Vertica. What I'm after is a vertical leather pouch, that is made just for the tilt only. I can find all kinds of universal ones out there, but they all too big since they fit the HTC apache (6700) I'm after something that fits the tilt snugly. Here's a couple I've found so far:
http://www.tiltdepot.com/krusell-vertica-multidapt-s-wide/4A25A1414A2.htm
http://cgi.ebay.com/MONACO-BLACK-LE...ryZ15036QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I've looked at the sensa pouch cases as well. Can anyone recommend a good one that isn't made for all kinds of phones? any ideas? Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Someone has pointed this one out in another thread, it looks nice but they said they could find it for like $15... which I havent been able to do...

A friend of mine has his Tilt in a case like you are describing... I think he said it was actually a Treo 750 case, but his Tilt fit perfectly.
-Jay
I have posted this in this forum before. The Treo 680/750 is within a mm of the dimensions of the Tilt. Any Treo pouch fits like a glove on the Tilt. I am currently using a fitted Treo pouch as my main phone holder.
You can get that Cellet case for less than $11.00 on Amazon.com. I bought one today.

Thanks Gaby... I was looking for one that said Tilt... didnt know the Treo one would work... I likey the price... I wonder what the clearances would need to be if you have the rubberized case on the Tilt
Just picked up this case at Bestbuy... fits nice and should have enough room for when I put on the hard skin...
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage...+case&lp=2&type=product&cp=1&id=1166840037625
I received my Cellet case from Amazon. My Tytn ll has a rubberized hard case and it fits perfectly inside it.
I need to say this case is beautiful... For $6.00 plus shipping is a great buy.

I have that HTC one from best buy listed above, it fits prefectly, has 2 magnets holding the flap closed and the belt clip is metal. It also has a soft velvet interior to resist scratches.
Would be nice if the clip had a double lock on it, though.
~~~
Another I really like is this one; from at&t.
It is in the "Universal Cell Phone" category at the store, at first it was too small, but after a few hours use, it stretched to fit my tilt like a glove. This one makes a real nice case if you need something a little more rugged, its clip made of a heavy (pvc like) plastic that double locks around your belt, making it impossible to accidently come off. The "Ballistic" Canvas has a quality feel and the velcro feel like it will last, not the cheapstuff.
Just be carefull until it stretches, it had the tendency of catching the stylus, doesn't anymore though.
~~~
Both are a bit pricey, but considering the cost of the phone, I wouldn't trust those $9.95 specials, unless I could get my hands on it first. My friend found a $10 version of the HTC one, but the leather on it feels like it would wear down and rip pretty quickly.

This case is actually made by Nite Ize, and it is available on Amazon. The LARGE size fits the Tilt best compared to SMALL or PDA/Smartphone. The magnet version is also better than the velcro one.
I bought the Seidio rubberized slim case for my Tilt that I am pretty happy with. Now, I am looking for a leather case(horizontal or vertical) with a belt clip that would be large enough for the phone+seidio rubberized case.
I see many listed on EBAY meant for the tilt, but I am not sure if they would be a tight fit with the seidio case and most don't list dimensions.
If you have bought a leather case from EBAY or other sources that has worked for you with the Seidio Rubberized case, please send me a link.
Are there cases made for other larger phones/blackberry's that might work?
Thanks,
Oz

Hello,
I have a Seidio "hybrid" case, I found a Cellet case on eBay for about $9 and the sedio cased phone fits in just fine. It was a little tight at first but it broke in after a couple days.
There is one on eBay now from the seller I got mine from. Item number 270265549780.
I wanted to do the same thing and ended up buying the Hermes/8525 leather case with the elastic on the side. The Hermes case was slightly larger than the OEM Kaiser case.
My Kaiser with the rubberized case fits perfectly:

Thanks for the replies. I ended up buying the following cases, and will decide on one to keep:
The first one is the HTC 8925 Horizontal Case which was on sale for $14 at accesorypost.
I checked with another member who confirmed that it works well with the Seidio rubberized case over the phone.
The second one is the Monaco Leather vertical pouch. It seems pretty nice, and has the clip in the back. That was for $24.95
I'll report back once I get them.
Thanks

This is the same case that i use with both the 8525 and Tilt, i like it cause I can plug the home charger into it while they are in the case.
The HTC 8925 horizontal case is great. It holds the phone with the Seidio rubberized case, and it's a perfect fit. Best accessory i have purchased for my phone so far.
The Monaco vertical case looks very nice, and I wish it had worked out for me. But the Tilt with the Seidio case does not fit in the Monaco at all.
Also, the phone by itself is a very very tight fit inside the Monaco case.
My initial verdict on the Seidio case has changed. I was pretty happy with it during the first couple of weeks when I got it. After 2+ months of using it I don't think it was worth the money. The clips that are supposed to hold the case attached to the phone come off very easily(especially when the phone is in my pants pocket). The other day I noticed that one of the clips was broken, now the case is pretty much useless and it is off my phone...
Is this Seidio case designed in 2 pieces "clipped" together? Just curious as I was thinking of picking up one and wondering if it's worth it. It "looks" durable..
Colleagues,
I don't know if you have the same issue I have but I have not been able to find any pouches that would fit the Fuze with the Seidio Innocase Surface Case on it.
If you have, can you share which one and where you got it from?
Thanks in advance.
If horizontal is fine why not get the HTC OEM case mentioned here: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8222327&type=product&id=1166840037625 This case is slightly too big for the phone natively, IMO. Best of all you can pop in to Bestbuy and try it out before you buy.
Horizontal is what I am looking for.
So, what do you think of that case? I have one that I used to carry my Hermes then Kaiser. Both were larger that the Raphael, but with the outer casing clad to the Raphael that case would fit nicely, I would venture.

aadadams,
Honestly, I don't like that pouch.
Anybody else knows of any that would fit the Fuze with the Seidio Innocase Surface Case on it?
What characteristics are you looking for? Have you checked the sticky thread above (top of the Raphael accessories page) to explore the options presented there? I think any case intended fot a Tilt or Hermes would hold the Raphael with the Seidio case on it. You have MANY options.

I have checked the sticky but what I am trying to find out is if any one who has a Seidio Innocase Surfase case on the Fuze has found a horizontal, leather pouch that fits.
Anyone, please???
Never mind,
I bought one made by Sedio that is built precisely to hold a Fuze with their own Innocase Surface Case. The funny thing is that Sedio does not appear to have it in their own website; I saw it in everythinghtc.
It is a very good quality black leather for $30.
Link it please?

I have the one Seidio sells; it is great and only ads less than 1 mm to the phone. It doesn't have a belt clip though, but they also sell a holster for it.
