Not by much ..if you've seen otterboxes on other devices the additional thickness is negligible ...visually on a n900 it may make it seem like you now own a brick.
It can't be worse than a silicone case...got one for n900.
or the pdair aluminum and neoprene-lined case...got 2 - 1 for n810 1 for n900.
and it can't be worse to a proper leather book-case..
love mine...3 leather pdair book-cases - 2 for n800 and 1 for n900
and a boxwave for my n810's with 2 card slots and slots for debit' credit, ident. .. protective plastic skin over keyboard. ...(best book design ever frankly)

Naw the otterbox can't be worse than any of those aesthetically...
and frankly I like the protection...
I know over the years I have dropped every device I have....repeatedly....Thank goodness for my cases...Never walked around without a case on any of them. All are in stellar condition....Thanks to my cases.
Don't care for the lack of protection of the silicone's open face...nor having to get the thing apart just open the device back.
Don't care for the lunky flip-up hinge on the aluminum case..awkward ...but it is effective
Love my book-cases though. classy ... and great protection and access.

If a soul's got a Nxx0 ....
I Highly suggest getting a case of some sort...

I use it and it's big. There's a rubber lining in the hard shell. It also protects the screen from scratches from being laid face down with a ridge around the outside that also kinda bites into the ear when held tightly. Still, it's great protection.

I got a friend travelling in south america to buy two cases from the mexican site mentioned earlier in the thread.

One of the cases is protecting my n900.

My plan was to use the other case to protect my future neo900 but since it probably wont fit due to the extra height of the device I'm willing to let it go for what I paid + shipping. The case is in original package. PM me if you are interested.

^^^^ WHA?
what the heck is the last post?
Is your cat playing on the keyboard?
I think we had something similar a while back...
I remember!

One of us members was on transit with their device
I got pretty worried over the garbled undecipherable post he did!
I seriously thought it was the poor guy having a seizure!

he had his device in his back pocket ...
and his butt texted a post here!
when he said as much I about fell off my chair I was laughing so hard..

Hahahaha...
ah!
good times!

Hey man...
Tell your cat to get his OWN maemo account..
and to stop using yours.

This was funny. : D What do you take? )... and i don't have cat, what very sad. ((

My last post just for update thread. So that more people could see what I'm looking for this protection. I would write just 'up', but forum script, blocks short posts.

Best Regards.

Xsive Pro, I recommend you to read the thread. You may notice a pattern: want to buy, want to buy, want to buy... Not a single want to sell. Does that tell you anything? Perhaps it should.
