Thats very disappointing

man, i hope they dont take forever to make the 'tough' cases.
I had it on both my nexus one and galaxy s vibrant, it was the best case ever.

totally agree. people who previously had barely there should try tough case, only a extra +$10 but totally worth it. made it feel so solid in the hand

Awesome! I can't wait!!

i cant wait

Seems to be available in the UK! the forum wont let me post a link though
But theres no way I am going to spend $50 for a case... hopefully they come out soon in the US for a more reasonable price

Are we talking about this case from case-mate?

I agree...a barely there case would be great but frankly I'm really wanting something better than my sh***y Platinum Case from BB. If this is available in the US soon for a reasonable price, I might break down and buy it.

Thats it! it looks like ALL the other Pop Cases... what did you expect? I think the pop case is pretty awesome, I have seen them on an Iphone 4 and it really looks great in person. I love the one piece design soft inside and the hard outer shell. Its like the Tough case, but one piece.

I actually like this white one, I also dont mind case-mate's logo

Nice to meet you too.
I really like the cases. Cutouts are really good.
The covered buttons work just fine, no pressing by the case itself, which I have had problems out of some TPU cases.
Will definitely be buying more of these cases.
Added more pictures. The RED looks pink with the flash on but it is RED.
Was wondering how these would fit with the extended battery?

These fit great on the extended battery and are well made.
I don't care for the matte finish on the extended cases. Those cases are good fit and good quality too.

Bought one of these for my bionic and the wife's incredible 2. Love 'em. Much better than the cases that verizon sells.

I freakin loves these cases. Joel is a good friend of mine and a great guy to deal with. He offers a really nice case for a killer price. I always buy 2 or 3 colors from him.
PS.. joel, i'm gonna book my flights for CES in the next day or so.

Yeah for TN people I am in Spring Hill, love these cases I have one for my Bionic and my wife one for her charge.
Im looking at this one here...
http://www.amazon.com/Flexible-Moto...1OK9R8S7S5URY&s=generic&qid=1322339458&sr=1-9
Question is how well does it slide in and out of pockets? Not sure of the exact material or texture so wondering if it gets stuck at all or is it a smooth slide? thanks!

These are smooth and, won't/don't get stuck in your pocket like a silicone one will.
These cases look pretty cool. Are they thinner than the regular verizon soft silicone case? I am looking for something thinner.
I have one of those from Verizon.
These are thinner than the ones at Verizon.
Not sure how much thinner. Don't have a micrometer to check.

Thanks. I think I am going to get one today.

Another Bookcover Case

This is on Kickstarter, but they are supposedly going to be ready to ship N7 cases in October. $40 each.

I'll take a Clockwork Orange jacket when available...
Wow. These look great.

It's a novel idea *buh duh chaaaa* but it looks like the inside is made from plastic? It's about the same price as the Portenzo/Treegloo cases without the options too.

Rubberized plastic, it looks like. Might be a bit more durable than wood.
I've been on that kickstarter page since launch but last communication with them, I asked about smart covers. They said they wanted to keep the case simple as possible and not include it.
Other than that, I do agree, they resemble the treegloo/portenzo/dodo/reauthored cases, just without a lot of customization.

Me too! I know this is not the point those guys are trying to make, but I'd love to see this concept with movie art, particularly Ralph Stedman's work from Fear and Loathing...

For those of you who don't like cases but are worried about traveling with your N7...

I picked this travel case up at Target for about 12$... fits everything nicely.

That looks pretty slick for a travel case.:good:
I like it might have to go buy one, do you happen to know the name of it.

Its actually not even in the electrinics department of target. Its in the camping supply area next to the travel stuff. Its labeled as an e-reader case and has a cardboard sleeve around it. I'm pretty sure the brand was Embark
Thanks.. I am going to go look tomorrow.. I had a feeling it would be an a area I wouldn't know about.lol
Good find. I may grab one of these.

Just an FYI, I had a similar case for my old Archos PMP. The elastic band wore away the finish on the PMP's frame after a bit of taking it out and putting it back in. I imagine that, if you're careful, it won't be a problem. And one advantage to plastic over metal is that there's no paint to abrade.
Thanks exactly what i was looking for!
That's the right one in the website posted but it says $16 online. It was definitely only $12 or $12.99 in store.

Hell No!! Your phone deserves better than that
Better than other ones
I applaud you sir!
Contrary to some of the other opinions I think the silver top blue bottom case on the white Note 2 is absolutely gorgeous it's like if Kate Upton was a phone with a case it would be the silver and blue with white note 2. That rhymes silver and blue with white note 2. HAHAHA.

My thoughts exactly! That's the only reason I haven't ordered one yet
It's incredibly pricey, but I'm still entertaining the possibility
Edit... Before I just checked out the pics. Just watched the video and now I'm SERIOUSLY contemplating getting one! It would be tits with the blue top part and bottom black.

<waits for an ebay clone that looks the same to come around>
yeah.. not a fan either. Case looks WAY too bulky, especially around the bottom. I've seen some decent aluminum cases.. and for me, this isn't it.
It looks like the volume switch will be very difficult to use.
but.. hope it works out for you..
bulky? thats about as thin as you can get short of a barely their or a tpu.
its gorgeous but OUCH not worth $80
anyone want to get me this?
