As a outer travelling shell, I use a Otterbox 2000. It fits the N800 perfectly, and while it will only fit the largest coat pockets, but it is water- and crushproof to a degree that you'll usually have to worry about your own life and health before matters get dangerous for the encased n800...

The proporta case only adds a couple of mils to the size. fits in my pockets fine and i can sit on it without damaging it. and, yes, I use it daily!

Sweet! I just ordered one. Thanks for posting this link!

Re: N800 case is a joke and I am not laughing
 

Reading so many "which case to use" posts here (again!), I really wonder why Nokia refuses to offer a decent protection for the N800/N810 that "just works" the way they did for the 770. It could well be sold as an accessory, but it should better integrate with the device. Having to glue it to the back is not an elegant solution, neither is the fact that the device is no longer aware if the state of its cover.

The situation is simply disappointing. Its not professional.

Thanks for everybody's suggestions. I am NOT carrying the brand new shinny N800 and continue to using my dutiful 770 because it aint got a protective case! Milhouse already points that out in other post before my purchase, thanks Mil. Any how, I digest the previous post of 105 (Benny has nicely put it, (again), ) and the current one, here are the choices, NOT in any particular order:

Re: N800 case is a joke and I am not laughing
 

For those shopping for a case, may as well get a car mount. I use a carmount on my desk and the tablet does not annoyingly move around when I tap on it. And of course, it actually works in the car when I travel. I ordered several just to try out, and this is MY choice, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...ayphotohosting, This is how it looks.



What? Nay, I dont work for them. Just a satisfy customer :),

Watchout though, it works very good and holds the tablet very sturdy. However, the suction cup would eventually fatigue and your tablet will fall. It happens much faster in the car as temperature changes during the day, so always, always, think about what happen if it falls. Most of the time it stays there for a long time, I have a 4 hrs trip and it did not fall. The suction cup is 8 cm in diameter, I think it is big. And if you worry about the suction cup fatigue, it also comes with some hooks for hook on the the A/C vents of your car, it looked very sturdy but I have not tried it. No other reasons, I just found the suction cup satisfactory. It costed approx $16 and I strongly recommend it if you have not gotten any car mounts. As I said, I also use it in the house, it allows one hand typing when the carmount holds the tablet in one position. Try it, dont just gawk at me:p
