Skin case ?

[ikaris]

Are there any skin cases for the Wizard, like the iSkin ?

Ideally, with a slot on the bottom for the keyboard...

[bnycastro]

There is already a silicone case for the dopod 838 [WIZA100] unfortunately you can't use the keyboard with the case on. I'm using this case until I find a nice leather case or metal case for my dopod. it seems all the cases coming out are for the Qtek and O2 versions [WIZA200?].

where can you get hold of one of these skins

[bnycastro]

They are widely available at Wan Chai Computer Center in Wan Chai Hong Kong or Mongkok Computer Center. If I recall correctly they have Frosted White, Blue, Pink, Black [which I have] it's around HKD 100 [of course you can haggle a bit]. Remember this is for WIZA100 [dopod 838] and will not allow you to use the keyboard. See the pic...

i've seen the same thing, i think on ebay, for the wizard wiza200 but i doubt you could slide open the keyboard on that one aswell..

[bnycastro]

I doubt they'll be able to make a silicone case that allows free use of the keyboard [although I hope I'm wrong]. The slider seems to pose a big problem in case making.

Hi Bnycastro,

Would the Dopod 838 Skincase fit the Tmobile MDA Vario?

[bnycastro]

edojo: AFAIK the Tmob MDA vario is a WIZA200 model. So it wouldn't fit as the dopod 838 is a WIZA100 model [the VPA Compact and the Cingular 8125 are WIZA100s] Qtek9100/imate k-JAM are WIZA200's. Hope this helps.

Go to boxwave.com and make a request. They claim that if they get enough requests they release the product. Go to the link at the bottom to request a product for a device and then make sure "Flexiskin" is checked. It is probably a good idea to mention all the Wizard's aliases (MDA Vario, Qtek 9100, I-mate K-jam) so they see it is a device in alot of user's hands. I owned one of these for my Treo and it was outstanding.

Made a request, we'll see if they see any money in it...

This case not only hold the PDA, but also hold two miniSD cards.

Don't know if people are still looking, but boxwave has skin cases and aluminum cases now:

Yes that's been available for ages. I think what most of us here want is a skin case for the Wiza200 (instead of the Wiza100).

[halfsoul]

Ah, my mistake. Good luck, then 8)

[optical]

man, why is it so difficult to find a skin for the TMO MDA.

[nkognegr0]

yea and after seing this (http://cgi.ebay.com/Silicone-Case-Black-for-T-mobile-MDA-Vario-II_W0QQitemZ130021980986QQihZ003QQcategoryZ48673QQ ssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) looks like we may never see one. the new phones got them already so we probably wont see one.
