That looks awesome, but I wish it had a belt clip too..

I have been doing some looking around this looks perfect: http://www.amazon.com/HTC-Horizontal...7359312&sr=1-5

But I am not sure about velcro, how do you all like it? Does it get annoying at all?

I have also been considering: http://www.blackberrysource.com/stor....asp?item=9547

Since the magnet is in 1 area, but I'm not how the sleeper switch will effect the n900... What do you guys think? I'm not sure if the depth is large enough to fit the n900 either, the max the listed blackberries seem to go is a depth of about .61in, while the n900 is at .71 in.

Any idea of safe points for the magnet to be which doesn't cause the n900 to go crazy?

Another one is this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...A3LPSQUUDVQ4PO

Now that one is PERFECT! and exactly what I want out of a horizontal case, but its depth is only .55 in and the n900 is .71 in - I don't think its possible to squeeze the n900 in there... or maybe its worth a shot?

What do you guys think?

Keep the suggestions coming!

Thanks!
I went with the D2 with snap closure. With the N900 in the case, these align up very easily, so there's no fiddling around to close it.

What kind of clip does that case logic use wowsher? It is not one of those plastic detachable clips is it?
It is leather over metal, swivels 360, permanently connected to the holder. I have been using it everyday for a month now and it is holding up very well.

I have been using the Body Glove case for a Sidekick LX. Fits snugly with the Otterbox cover on the N900. Velcro closure is not a problem for me. Something on the Otterbox sometimes gets caught in the case. I have to do some experimenting to find out what.

If you buy it from Amazon watch out for a seller with a very low price. IMHO they have their inventory messed up. The wrong item came, but they provided a postage paid return and gave me a full refund.

I use a Reiko one - although it says leather, it is NOT real leather, and I wouldn't be surprised if the other Reiko one you are looking at is not leather either. I mainly use it when I need to carry my phone in my backpack to protect it. One thing to be aware of - the earphone port will be inaccessible in many of these cases.

Here's mine. no magnetic flap, just a zipper. It has a zippered front pouch too, for my USB cable, credit cards, and other thin stuff.


It's also available in red, and in grey.

I haven't been able to trigger a screen wakeup by sliding the phone in & out of the case.
