Hi guys,

I write this thread to deal with the three cases i've bought off ebay! Two so far have been garbage, one has been great!



Hard Silicon Case: This case damages the N900's paint!



It costs roughly $5 delivered. It starts out pretty nice, holds the phone firmly, yet after a week of use the case becomes sloppy and this is the problem. I noticed a week after the loose holding it had taken small specks of paint out of the side of the phone. Nothing too major, yet enough to cause annoyance since this is the purpose of the case.

The damge it caused was this;


My opinion is Don't buy it!


Soft Silicon Case: This case is probably the most unnatractive option to put on your N900.



It has an odd way of holding to the device and adds a considerable amount of bulk to it. All the side ports (usb, headphone jack, etc) now have about half a centremeter of rubber in the way before you can get to them. The top layer of rubber is pretty flimsy in terms of sticking to the device.


My opinion is Don't buy it!


Lamb skin pouch: Nicest case thus far!



I admit the ebay picture looks rather ugly yet in person this is by far the nicest and most protective case/pouch I've had. While it's actually a "pouch" meaning you have to pull it in and out the N900 fits rather snug and looks rather nice in it. If you have a black wallet that matches it looks good together.

On a side note, unlike alot of other leather goods i've gotten off ebay this case doesn't smell and the inside of the case has a nice fabric on it.

Probably the nicest thing i've used thus far. I recommend it!
