The Perfect Treo Case Err on the Side of Caution

[Sallatu]

Hi,

Can anyone tell me the best case for my treo 650. Cingular and no one I can find offers warranty on the phones broken screen so I want to do all I can to protect it from normal wear and tear and the occaisonal ooops.
I looked at Andrew's post regarding the holster recommendation. I was wondering if I can use the S650 Skin Case with the Seidio Shield Holster or some other combination so the treo is protected when its on my hip and when its on my ear.
I did already purchase screen protectors for the defense against scratches.

Any input would be great

Welcome Sallatu,

Thats kind of a favorite topic of Andrews (who write the blog for Treonauts).

Is the post worth reading. Plus have a look at some of his recent posts he reviews a case called the P5 Ultra Slim which is what I've been waiting for.

For me the main issue with cases is the number you need. e.g you have a holster which means you can't put your treo in your pocket. You want a pocket pouch but they don't provide enough protection or they're too bulky or they're too sticky - making it impossible to pull out of your pocket when the phone rings. So you end up getting two or three case types.

I've got a Seidio Design Holster, Foopod pocket pouch and P5 (review sample). I tried a Silicon form fit but it's too stick and does nothing to protect the screen unlike the others...the Palm leather ones is really well made but make me look like I've got a cut down Batman tool belt on.

Thats my 2 cents.
