Smile Otterbox?

How long after a handset has been released does it normally take Otterbox to start releasing cases?
I had the defender for my DHD and would like to get the same for my sensation.
Thanks.

they told me before that there has to be a demand for them to make cases for specific phones.

Unless your phone keeps the Dr. away, in the wind you will sway.

What a mistake on Otterbox's part. Im personally expecting to sell more cases for this then the Evo 3D. Usually Otter releases about 2 months after launch for non Apple products.

So what is the best alternative?

I.E. What is the absolute best in maximum protection?

Looking for a case that even prevents dust from entering as well !

I wrote to Trident and they said they will be producing a case for the Sensation and they will be available next month. They didn't say which type of case it would be.

Hopefully it will be like an Otterbox.

I'm looking for maximum protection so it preserves the resale value when I sell in a year or so.

If anyone finds a case like that, let us know!
