As for the lowered side, I often use my Touch Pro tethered with my Tablet PC on the go. I use a compact retractable USB cable, so it allows me to be able to walk around with my Tablet PC in my hands, with the thing USB cable connected to my Touch Pro which is on my belt. I'm right handed so, I usually hold my Tablet PC in my left hand, so the lowered side is facing front, when I wear the case on my left side of my belt. Geeky and practical.

That sounds incredibly geeky but so damned cool!

So the leather really is that tight, huh? I guess I'll add 1.5 cm on all their dimensions.

Also, do you think they would be able to cut off the leather where you did, but continue it up to the top after the USB port?

Yes, it's quite tight brand new, but stretching it a bit breaks in the leather and then it fits like a glove. Depends how you like your fit, glove tight, or baggy loose. I prefer a tight fit. Well, as in I don't want my phone flopping around in it's case.

You mean have a hole instead, where you have material above the USB port area, or a flap, that folds down? I have the lowered side so that I can be able to put it into the case while I have a USB cable plugged in. Otherwise it's impossible to tether and put it in and out of the case. For just charging, you would just need a hole, and I'm sure they'd be able to do a hole.

Re: Any good sites for docks and accessories yet?

I received the corrected BoxWave screen protectors for the CDMA Touch Pro. The old version was pulled about a week after the Sprint TP came out, because of fit issues.

This corrected version fits very well. All the cut outs are in the right location, and the size and fitting are great.

BoxWave protectors are a hard smooth plastic that looks and feels like the actual screen itself. These protectors only cover the front (screen and D-Pad), so they're a great accessory even if you a case.

good to know the ones I have now are horrible. I'll call boxwave to hopefully get mine replaced.

Re: Any good sites for docks and accessories yet?

I bought the extended battery from Seidio. Don't waste your money. It last the same if not less then the battery that came with the TP. $30 down the drain.

I also ordered the TP Invisible Shield and haven't put it on. My boss got one too and it looks like crap. Doesn't cover most of the scratchable chrome and the back cover is slotted to allow the wrap around. Also a bad investment.

Apologies if these have been covered but I just jumped in here and haven't read the whole thread.

There was a big thread about the Seidio batteries not lasting any longer than stock batteries for several past Pocket PC's in the past. Was a pretty heated thread, but there were a few members that put the issue to bed by posting more "scientific" results by doing tests with programs like Nuepower and other battery meters.

Re: Any good sites for docks and accessories yet?

The Seidio I got for the Mogul was outstanding. It drastically increased my battery life. That's why I was hopeful.

The website shows a mega extended battery something coming out soon, but I wouldn't want to have it increase the dimensions just for an extra 30 minutes.

Lesson learned.
