i go every day to the gym and i always leave my kaiser around...
but today an idiot risked to take seat right above my loved device!
so...
i wonder if there is a case designed for who does a lot of exercise someone knows?
Just purchase a cheap cell phone and use it with the same phone number. You don't really need the Kaiser for such occasions.
I too would be interested. Been looking along time for something and never really found one. A while ago someone suggested an Iphone arm band case (can be found at any big box store) but it just does not look "thick" enough for our phone. anyone else?
Wristband
Go to ebay and search Iconnect, they have a nice wrist band for $5.11 with shipping!!! I use it at the gym and fits my phone snuggly and no issues Very satisfied.
Alternatively have a look for Krusell - the offer various options including wrist bands for their leather cases. I use their bike mount - it is top quality.
For the Kaiser you can use

in combination with e.g.
http://www.krusell.se/product.php?productID=2774&category=51
and personally i recommend using the spring clip (http://www.krusell.se/productMulti.php?productID=2562&category=29) instead of the included swivel knob.
It is not especially cheap - but it is certainly quality.

I use an ipod armband case, and it works perfectly. The case is designed for a classic ipod, but fits the kaiser just fine. I put my kaiser in the case before I go to the gym, watch videos on it while I'm on the elliptical, and then strap it on my arm and listen to mp3s while I'm doing weights. There's a plastic cover over the screen, but I can still use the touch screen to change video or audio settings.

i like to have the kaiser in my jeans etc but with the supplied case (t-mobile) it is just too bulky. i need a solution that will protect the phone from falls etc but will allow me to keep it in my pocket without creating a huge bulge.
Im searching for the same thing, anyone an idea?
i think a skin would be the best bet but none are available yet, or some kind of sock case
I know one, you see that strap hook by the sync cable/charge insert on the kaiser?
Get a lanyard with quick release, attach it to your belt.
Get a screen protector.
There, all issues solved
The kaiser is already bulky in the pocket, dont think you will be able to find a case that wont be to encumbersome. Afterall the kaiser is best used on the belt clip.

The Kaiser does that to me everytime i look at it LOL
To answer your question though: There are currently very few companies who actually released cases for the Kaiser...i would suggest waiting until christmas, or january and then deciding instead of picking from the very few available ones now.
i'm using a BodyGuardz skin...check out the pictures in the attached zip file...
skins soon to be available from gpsforless.co.uk
i e-mailed them and they told me they are in the process of producing them, and will be available soon. couldn't give me a date though
This was posted "For the time being, I'm getting by ok on the stock Kaiser case along with a small neoprene case from OP/ Tech USA. The Velcro on the stock case will lose its grip over time and repeated use and that fact alone has me case hunting too.
The OP/ tech case is useful for when I just want to carry the phone someplace other than clipped to my belt (say a cargo pocket). There is a clip on it too if need be. The real plus for me is its utility & bang for the buck: the case provides shock & screen protection and even a bit of water resistance with minimal bulk. It stashes well and the price is right. There are color options too. I’ve used these cases for cameras, GPS and cell phones for some time now and like them a lot.

in this post: "OKAY, Whats the BEST CASE on the market??"
If that adds anything
PC
those could do but i don't find them very attractive.
i do wonder exactly how slim line these cases are though

i am quite tempted
although Im speaking for the prophet, it would seem that Noreve case would not add too much bulk....(sorry to keep plugging them, but i truly love their cases)

Not a bad looking case at all. Think I found a winner
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://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'm looking for a carmount that doesn't involve a suction cup.I'm really looking for something that can be clipable to the air vent and be able to handle weight since i primarily use an extended battery
Update. I found this instead http://www.proclipusa.com/?sectionp...tegoryid=&p_year=&p_countryid=0&p_leftorright=
I got one aradio shack for $15 that works great. Clips into vent and adjust in size to grip from sides. Charger still fits while in cradle too. Kevin
The one I use is a $9 one from wal-mart. it clips to the air vent & has adjustable sides w/ a space on the bottom for chargers.
Do you like the one from walmart?
Pro Clip is where its at
I bought this set, Everything works great especially for the price.
My first plastic case had the issue of one corner not fitting right, so i contacted them, and they sent out a new one the next day. Fit perfectly.
But it has the car cradle, and a very nice leather holster that holds the phone snug.
amazon has a ginormous variety of all types of holders. i got one a few weeks ago that comes with windshield mount and is also interchangeable to the air vent. also some that are actually custom to the phone for a little more $ with a charger port built in.
I have the kaiser with extended battery and the innanocase to cover it but I want a nice leather case to fit on my hip.. The cheap ones do not last long and I cannot find a good one to fit the extended. any ideas?
Thanks
Best case I ever bought - Naztech Gladiator
I don't know about all of you, but my cases take a beating! The longest any leather case lasted was 6 months. Then I found the Naztech Gladiator Case for my then phone, Palm 650 Treo.
When I upgraded to the Kaiser, I was pleasantly surprised to see that it fit. It comes with two belt clips, one metal (the one I usually use), the other is a snapped loop that fits on backpacks, etc. It used a d-clip (like the police use on their radios), so it won't slip out of the clip.
It has an adjustable depth, so it will likely fit the extended battery. It is a bit bulky and a bit industrial looking, but the durability offsets that IMHO. The closure is magnetic and has great tactile feedback so you know it is closed.
It sells for US $30-40, so it is a great value. It doesn't seem easy to find(took me two hours of looking!), http://naztech.com/products.php?id_prod=14.
Thanks for the cases. They are nice. I do not think I will go with the gladiator though because I prefer mine to lay horizontally on my side. I think i am going to go with the regent.
I'm shopping for a new car mount. I want something with a suction cup that sticks to the windshield or dash - not looking for a vent or cup mount.
I've been looking around at several models, but most of them seem to fit poorly for a Fuze - sides covering volume/PTT buttons & back covering the rear speaker.
I use my Fuze as a GPS device in landscape mode. I'd like a holder that doesn't cover any hardware buttons or the rear speaker. I also use a case once in awhile but not always - so the width should be adjustable.
I have the suction cup mounted type and did not like it.. they seem to wobble/vibrate more than the vent mount ones.. also car theifs will break into you car if they see thesuction mount thing on your dash, as they assume whatever goes on it is still in the car... jsut a warning.. you locat people to not use that type in the Milwaukee area... if you do decide to get the vent mount... Target sells one at the stores for $15 that works well... quick release button and all that... decent quality too (not cheap feeling like some are)
Thank you for your response, you bring up some important things to consider.
I have tried vent clips, but in my vehicle the weight of the phone causes the screen to point downwards.
My wife bought me a universal holder, which the vendor said is compatible with the Fuze. It mounts to the windshield, has a long gooseneck and the holder barely fits the fuze w/o a case. It blocks the rear speaker and the sides cover the volume/PTT buttons.
One nice thing it came with was a disc the size of the suction cup, with some very thick sticky tape on the bottom. While the disc isn't really pretty, it allows me to mount on the dash or even the console - avoiding the conspicuous windshield attention grabber.
I would just like a good, adjustable holder that doesn't cover buttons or the rear speaker.

You buy the clip in two parts: vehicle mount and device holder.
I have one and because it fits so well, I never used the double-sided tape that comes with it. Whenever I change devices, I purchase a new device holder.
These are far more secure than a suction cup and all the years I've used these, they never fell off.
I don't have a need for it, but they also have an extension mount so you can mount 2 devices. Really great concept if you have the need.
Although these may cost a little more, they are definitely worth the price.

Seconded! I've used the Brodit Proclip for over a year now and had no issues at all.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Thanks, you guys made me take a second look at this vendor.
Would you guys trust the holder to hold the phone if it was mounted for landscape viewing?
