Protecting my 800w

[DFWDraco76]

Well I got a cradle for my desk at work; can't seem to make it through a day with this crappy battery. (especially when I -- God forbid -- use the features that attracted me to the phone, like GPS, WiFI, etc.)

Still haven't found a case or anything that I'm excited about. Need to find a screen protector soon though. What kind of stylus did you get chimmer? I hate this tiny flimsy one that came with it.

Sorry for the late reply, didn't get an email notification.

Here is the page from Seidio where I purchased my items. If you scroll down, the stylus I got is the non-pen version, which is what I prefer. It looks like the pen version is out of stock. This stylus is a definite improvement over that flimsy piece of plastic the 800w shipped with.

One interesting note, the retractable sync/charge cable that I bought didn't last 2 days. The connection near the plug that goes into the phone seems to have broken. You can wiggle it and hear the beeps you get when it normally connects. I've emailed Seidio for a replacement but haven't heard back yet. I have the same type of retractable cable for my Centro and have used it for months with no problems (also purchased from Seidio) so I hope this one isn't a design issue with the smaller usb connection.

I got the blue innocase, not bad but very difficult to install. You can get 3 corners installed but the 4th is a pain. Doesn't matter which 3 you start with. You finally have to squeeze very hard to get everything to snap together. Removing it is also difficult. I thought the Seidio hard case for my Centro was tough to install/remove, it's a piece of cake compared to this one. I only hope that it loosens up over time.

I also picked up a few of the Seidio screen protectors, as I mentioned they seem to be a little smaller, doesn't fill the whole screen. I found a better deal on ebay and ordered these which are a pack of 15 for only $11.95. Haven't received them yet but hopefully they will work fine.
