Ok, so like, ever since I got this extended battery, my life's been a WHOLE lot easier. However, it's a pain carrying it in my pockets, and cases for my phone are pretty much non-existant. I'm using a horrendous looking Sidekick 2 case, and while it gets the job done, it's quite the eyesore. I went to the local mall, and they actually had a case, but it had a magnet holding it together, and that actually damaged my last phone (i-mate Jam). I'd appreciate any help anyone can give me, it would be much appreciated. Leather cases prefered, though I'm open to ANY suggestions, believe me.

Thanks,
Mark

I am wondering the same thing. I swear I hang up on people 5 times per day. They always say, "What the heck is wrong with your phone?" I tell them there's nothing wrong with my phone but it's hard not to hang up on them all the time because I don't have an adequate case for the thing with an extended battery. Back when I had my Treo 600, I always used a hard belt clip case, never had an trouble with unwanted hangups. Anyone find anything decent?

It's funny, because I've had this case for about a year, but never thought of using it. I gave it to my girlfriend for her Wizard, and never asked for it back (though that's definitely changed). Give this one a shot:

Very sleek look, fits the phone with the extended battery comfortably, durable, and no magnets that can potentially damage your phone. You can snatch it for about $10 shipped on eBay. Hope this helps.

You know I have had my phone in a magnetic case for over a year and have not experienced any problems with it damaging anything...I too have been searching for a case for my extended battery 8125, been to tons of sites on the web and so far the one I got from the mall works the best.
Now EBAY had a couple (magnetic flap) that was PDA style or as some call it flip style where there is no sliding your phone in and out...ebay item number 150123840685...it just didn't have the clip I like.

I just looked and the one I am using is the SIDEKICKII case...after a few weeks of use the case streched or loosened up and I don't have near the hang ups I had in the beginning.
