Best case for Diamond?

Hey,
I have a Telus HTC Diamond, and I was wondering if there were any good cases out there that people are using that they could recommend to me. I have been using the stock case for a while, but the Velcro has basically stopped working on it. Literally, I will be running around, and the phone will just pop right out of the case, and fall on the ground, causing the back cover to come off and the battery to come out.. This has happened twice and its really annoying.

I would like a slip in case that doesn't add a lot of bulk on to the phone, and that will slide nicely into my pocket, and not be too hard to slide out if I get a phone call, but any suggestions are helpful. I have searched the threads lightly, and mods, feel free to move this to a different section if it seems more relevant (I was hoping for a bit more views by posting in this section).

Reviews, suggestions, anything is helpful.

Thanks in advance.
-Hind1

EDIT:

Thanks to MrX8503, please go to post 21, page 3 and press thanks.

Here are a couple of cases found for the CDMA HTC Diamond:
PDair Black Leather Vertical Pouch for HTC Touch Diamond CDMA
Beyza Black Leather Vertical Case VS1

And here is a coupon code for the above 2 for 15% off: 1196659237

Re: Best case for Diamond?

tried different solution out there, this is seen to be the best so far. it's pricey but it's worth it.

Re: Best case for Diamond?

go to a rogers retail store and ask for the lg shine leather case. fits great and snug, slides out easy and looks great.

I'm actually using a Blackberry Pearl 8100 case. It fits the phone perfectly.

Re: Best case for Diamond?

search for the OEM HTC Touch Pouch - PO S322. I got mine for around $10 shipped.
Works perfect.

He is looking to replace the stock Diamond pouch with the velcro. The pouch for the Touch does not use velcro but instead has a magnetic flap so this would be an alternative.

Re: Best case for Diamond?

If you are looking for durability and not necessarily style Nite-Ize makes a couple heavy denier nylon cases. I had one case for 5 years and retired it due to small size of the diamond. I got another one that is smaller for the diamond. It uses a magnetic clasp and has a very soft interior. Great thing is they are only $10. It also has a clasp for bluetooth headsets. For a stylish case the Seidio Innocase is hard to beat. I am waiting for their extended battery and Innocase to come out. The invisible shield by Zagg (as mentioned above) is a product every PPC owner should get. There is no better screen protector than that. Best Buy sells them for $20 but you can get them from Zagg for less than that.

I had one of these on my 3rd gen iPod Nano, and I found that the area around the little scroll began to turn a yellowish colour. Does the screen on the diamond appear to be doing this as well?

Is the little clip on the back removable? It would be sweet.


Can someone also confirm that this case won't work? This is kind of what i'm looking for.

Thanks again everyone!
