If anyone finds a supplier in the uk for the Krusell case, please post.

Whery to buy in the UK: http://www.krusell.se/where2buy.php?s=3
One vote to Krusell:
- Horizon with Multidapt - Slim for dropping the phone to the case or
- Orbit Flex with Multidapt
I like the Multiadapt system, I have used it for years.

I ordered one of these earlier today - I've paid for Saturday delivery - not convinced they were really in stock but hoping as I havent recieved a dispatch notification. I'll update in the morning if it arrives and confirm the Krusell model number although its the only "orbit" one I can find???
***UPDATE*** Case arrived this morning from MobileFun and YES :) its the Krusell 75365 with the removable front.
http://www.krusell.se/product.php?productID=2994&category=76
The quality is just as you'd expect from Krusell - excellent. They've even added some detailing on the back that matches the "daimond" shaping from the battery cover. I'm very pleased.

I have just ordered this one. I had it for Tytn and Tytn 2 already and loved them. I even asked the guys if they could make one for my Digital Camera from Sony, and they custom made one which fits perfectly. So I had a stylish set for my Tytn 2 and my Sony Cybershot. Swiss top quality.

Got the HTC pouch just now, it's slim and doesn't add much thickness to the phone, but as it been said it's open at both ends and if you shake the case with the phone inside it does pop out of the case a little. Also the safety strap is of a rough material and could with time start to scratch the device. It cleans the device a little.
worth £9? not sure.....

I got mine yesterday and have to say its a nice case although not convenient ie the front bit needs to be flipped down in order to use the phone. Theres no protection for the screen either. Ive been using mine today and ive noticed alot of dust seems to get into the phone. Also on mine ive noticed the phone doesnt really sit nice in the phone...you have to push it down some to get it lined up properly ie the earpiece doesnt fit right...perhaps its the leather and after a while it will settle in but i have to say im not impressed with the case...the leather isnt very supple.

It just arrived and its beautiful! The Diamond fits nicely and its protected by a coating of neoprene inner lining. And as the advert says, the screen is protected by clear hard plastic. So in order to use the touchscreen, you gotta flip open the case. Tried it, no hassle at all. To answer phone calls, you can just press on the bottom answer/reject buttons, no need to flip it open. So, apart from the bottom buttons being exposed, the rest of the Diamond is protected.
Looking at it, it may (I say may) just be able to hold a Diamond with an extended battery, so long as the thickness of the Diamond is not enhanced too much...

I also have a crysta case, fits like a glove and doesnt make the phone thicker. ok, maybe 1mm.:eek:
Protection is good and all the buttons(3!) are accesable.
Camera holes speakers and styles are sparred out.
Its just perfect, it even fits in the leather sleeve ive got for my diamond!
So double protection:)

10th July 2008, 01:29 PM
Must agree with Jerison - mine black aluminium case just arrived forn Hong Kong (only 5 days after I ordered it!!!) it fits really well and offers excellent protection for the phone.
It adds 36g to the weight of the phone (without belt clip attached) and 4mm (ish) to the thickness.
Knowing how often my phones fall out of my shirt pocket, I know I am going to be glad I bought this case in the not too distant future!!!

Have any of you guys had any issues with the phone answering or rejecting calls with the different cases?
Mine came with the HTC pouch in the box, and I have yet to succesfully get the phone out when it rings without either rejecting or answering the call as the case brushes along the touch screen!

15th July 2008, 12:15 PM
Unless device manufacturer has added an option for user to disable the touch screen when there is new incoming call, you might accidentally hit the touch screen starting or ending the communication when you pull out the phone from the pouch. Anyhow, I use flip case in order to prevent this symptom.

Had my Diamond since Friday and have only carried it in the HTC pouch and I have a scratch on the screen protector. I've not had the phone out much so I can only think its the strap that caused it. I've noticed that the strap is sewn flush on one side (behind the HTC logo) but not the other so the phone needs to be put in with the screen aginst the HTC logo.

Me too, that's weird it seems the screen must be opposite to the logo, I would prefer the other side, here the logo is below when you put the phone on a table
EDIT: Ok I got it lol, the strap can be flushed on the 2 faces (one at the time), it depends on the side you put the phone in the pouch :)

Hi guys,
I've just published a photo-review of Noreve's case for the Dia. It's in Hebrew but the photos speak for themselves. Nice and neat case, very well designed and crafted. Special emphasize on well thougt cover-all design, and smart use of reinforced leather where it counts. makes it ~ 22 mm overall thickness in an elegant solution.
http://www.pocketpcfreak.com/archive/00007727.htm
Also just got the PielFrama's solution for review. Will report back it in a few days with a full photo article.

I have the S322 and it fitts very well.I would not recommend a case with a magnetic closure since I was using one before and I lost the stylus because of it.Since the Stylus has a magnet it is sometimes pulled out by the magnet in the case and mine was pulled out and lost!

I got the original HTC leather slip-on cover with my phone with Vodafone.

My original HTC case is already fraying at the edges (it is the one I got in the box with the Orange Touch Diamond), so I bought this one off eBay. It was ridiculously cheap but I am surprised at how good the quality is, and it includes an embossed HTC logo and everything!
The material is not leather but synthetic. The exterior is a glossy snakeskin embossed print in black while the interior is a suede texture in red. I guess it has the same kind of "screen cleaning" purpose that the original case had. It is closed at one end and to pull the phone out of the case there are cut outs to allow you to grip it. The good thing about the cut out is that it allows you to see the notification LEDs in the ring around the D-pad. I especially like that this case is even thinner than the original HTC one.
I think the case also comes in a "brown leather" as well.

Guys this is what I got, its made for digital cams brand Caselogic. It was about 6 USD so cheap.
The Diamond fits in it Perfectly, as if it was made for it.
I agree its not the nicest case but I only use it for when I throw my phone in my backpack or in the car or when you go out to the beach:D.
So its a more rugged kindo case. For the outdoors if you may say.

i have been using the HTC case (the one that can out the diamond in at either end) it is starting to get worst and worst. 1st of all the casing is getting loose, the diamond is sliding out. 2nd of all everytime i reach into my pocket to get my phone the case press on the answer key for me already, making the person on the other line thinking how come no one is talking but answered my call. Bad experience!
does anyone have any good case that does not have a piece of plastic right infront of the screen~???

I spent some time looking for a horizontal belt case that was the right for my new HTC Touch Diamond. There are not many in the stores nor available on the internet. I found the link for neTimes on this site and found a nice looking case that seemed to fit the Diamond very well.
Everyone is always wary when ordering from a new company that is not in their home country, which is normal.
I purchased from www.neTimes.com two belt cases. One with the magnetic closure and one with the Velcro closure..
Model: P3700-HLAL
Model: P3700-HLALV
Both cases are of an excellent quality, very well assembled and made of quality materials.
I also purchased a windshield suction cup type mount for my car.
Model: P3700-CM
The neat thing with the windshield mount is that the Diamond can be used in a horizontal position. Now all I need is to find an application that lets me use the TT7 GPS in a horizontal mode for an official 1.93 WWE Rom.
Ok now the important part……
Without disclosing the details of my transaction with this company… I do solemnly swear that they are a “customer orientated” company and that they do value the customer and neTimes is a company that I do intend to do business with again in the very near future.
I will recommend this company because they treated me like a paying customer that they want to come back for more business which is quite rare today.
So go for it… You can trust them! And no I do not work for them but I would distribute their products with confidence.

I found this Case Logic at Office Depot for like 16 bucks...

It actually fits the phone really well. I can post some pics with my phone in it if needed.

May I add in the use of a plain Ipod Sox!
Just a random link for some Ipod Soxs:
http://www.opticaudio.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=77&osCsid=f66423a6e67dcd2d955ab77469fd9164
- they are found in any color you like (for you who feel that the color matter :) )
- they are cheap
- the TD fits in there as if it was made for it.
- good protection for dust / and protects the screen when you have a a bundle of keys in same pocket as the TD
- The Sox works perfectly to sweap the TD when it gets covered with oil finger prints.
- Easy to pick up phone ifyou have a call - easy to make a call as well. (just drag the soc up half an inch and all keys are accessible).
Obviously it is not that good if you are out in a soaking weat thunderstorm - and it does not protect the TD from being dropped or mistreated with any other kind of twisting, weight preassure etc.
All in all I have been an happy Ipod Sox user for my old Qtek 9100 and now the TD.

Guys,
I have been using for the past 3 weeks this leather case from DealExtreme:
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.14993
At US$11.74, you just can't beat the price. Shipping is FREE worldwide. Check out the positive reviews from the website itself.:D
By the way, when my ordered arrived, I was surprised to see the box labeled as "Designio Leather Case". Wow at Boxwave.com it's currently priced at US$29.95 excluding shipping charges.
Hope that helps.

What I really want is a holster!
Hopefully Seidio comes out with their line of Diamond products soon.
Until then, I'll stick with my Case Logic...

How about this: http://www.boxwave.com/products/dlsleeve/htc-touch-diamond-designio-leather-sleeve_3180.htm ?
That one is quite expensive compared to this:

Take note that shipping is FREE worldwide. :D

My original HTC case is already fraying at the edges (it is the one I got in the box with the Orange Touch Diamond.
Same here, bought the Diamond in July, and after four months in my pocket (not hard bitten in any way), the pouch is cracking on the corners... Not too bad yet, but it won't last centuries, so I advise to think twice before buying that one. Too bad, it was exactly the type of pouch I was looking for, and I found none (yet) so thin, complete, and nice to my taste. Still looking.

I picked up a "Body Glove" for my Diamond that has the slightly thicker battery (US unlocked) from a local mall Kiosk (Verizon, I think). The phone fits nicely in this case with a mag catch and swivel belt clip.
It's the "Rally Universal" model.

seems such a waste getting this expensive device and then buying a cheap case not made for it.
I find thats its always worth paying for something well made, for convenience, protection and ownership satisfaction.
Noreve, Proporta and Piel Frama are the best, but very expensive (proporta is slightly cheaper).
If you want quality on the cheap, you can't go wrong with PDair. Very nice cases in aluminium or leather and flip or book.
I always buy PDair cases on ebay. The diamond flip leather one I bought for Ģ10.99.

I'm looking for a case for carrying my (European) Diamond on my upper arm. My arms are on the skinny side, so the arm band needs to be fairly adjustable. I've seen some on Ebay, but I'd like to have some other suggestions, please. :)

Thanks for the link. I lost the original HTC case so have just ordered one of the Beyza cases as they look very nice. I found a seller on ebay with them at a more reasonable price in the UK.
