Ditto, I didn't even have mine for a year, but it worried me on resale value. I was able to sell it locally, and like I said you don't notice it at all as long as you keep the case on.

Happing ppc'ing.

Cool. Let us know if you like it.

EDIT: Did you look at his feedback for Sprint buyers? Same pictured item.

Did not fit on my sprint phone even though ad said it would!

Good item. Not for sprint phone. This is for european phones with front camera.

i bought this one at amazon. OEM HTC leather case. $14.99. (i got a coupon for $2.00 off coupon if anyone is interested).

the phone fits perfect.. the phone slides right in and is not a real snug fit since the straps/bands aren't that tight (its for the tilt), but it's pretty good for the price.

Got this one of eBay, had to make some alterations to the battery cover section to get it to fit. I'm happy with it, considering it was only $5.00

Again, I had a nice plastic hard card for one of my WM phone (tilt, can't remember) for $20USD and it's far better quality than the one from Telus. It has micro fiber cloth on all the edges where might scratch the phone just like the metal case.

Plus why Telus one has a hole on the top left corner? there' no camera underneath of that, (a light sensor maybe?)...

The good thing is, it fits pretty well and the thickness is acceptable.

To remove the case is pretty easy I found, there are two hooks on the right hand side edge (top/bottom). Start from the bottom part of the phone, insert your fingernail to unhook them one after another and the case is out. Flip the phone upside down, the right hand side edge is at left now, apply the same procedure, it out in a snap.

But now you got me thinking... should I go get it or keep the clear case...

Thanks for the tip on how to remove it. I guess practice makes perfect I guess the problem I have is that I have very short nails.. hahaha.. So that makes it difficult to pry it open. But I think I'm getting better at it.

Good luck with your choice. I'm sticking to the Telus Clear case for now. I like the feel of it, I like the fit and the overall thickness is acceptable. But I will keep the black rubberized as backup

I'm using the case that came with the first Touch Pro. Fits just fine.

So last night I went to Telus store to return it... Just right before it, I came across a phone accessories stand and actually they do have the rubberized TP2 case in stock (international version), I asked the guy to let me try it on my TP2... Man, I have to say, you're right, it does not fit as good as the Telus clear case. I think the top part is a bit off compare to the clear case from Telus. Plus, the black color is not really deep rich black that I was expecting (maybe due to the ambient lighting in the mall), it's kind of white/gray-ish black. The price is about the same as in Telus store. So, after I thank the guy for his time, I sat down at the food court and tried the Telus clear case once again. I have to admit after the comparison, I decide to keep the clear case. It fits well and the overall feeling it's better than the rubberized case that I tried just minutes ago.

The one from ebay might be better (for CMDA) but it's a risk that might be the same fitting I tried yesterday. To hell with the $$$ differences and wait time, I just want to start protecting my $600 inverstment right now...

That's correct! Hahaha.. I know exactly what you mean. I was pretty excited about the black rubberized case. I'm always partial to black. So I ordered it way before I got my Telus Clear Case. I had trouble finding the Telus Clear Case because not all the Telus stores carry it. It took me several weeks to find one. So when the store I called finally had one, I actually left work for an hour to get it!

I really don't understand it too but the Telus Clear Case seems to really fit well as compared to the rubberized case. Probably because it is really customized for my Telus device.

I was a little disappointed with the rubberized case. But it will work as a decent backup if I have problems with the Telus Clear Case (but I hope not!). I'm actually planning to buy another Telus Clear Case once I find another one. Just for backup as well.

I'm glad you decided to keep the Telus Clear Case. So far, I haven't had any problems with it.

Here are pictures of the VZW Touch Pro2 in the clear case nakedcellphone on eBay is selling.
It fits perfectly unlike the previous one that I bought.
