WTB Proporta Alu-Leather Case for Shift - Shift Accessories

Hey All,
I just got my shift 2 weeks ago and I am having a very hard time finding cases for it. I see only that Proporta makes (or made) a case for the Shift but I can not find it anywhere for sale anymore.
Links below show what I mean, its the flip type case.

Does anyone know where I can still buy one of these? I really really hate the HTC once that comes with it, which is the one that uses the screws to hold the device in place....
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Yes I have been looking to without luck so far, I don't think there are any other services quite like it that could be customized either. So unless someone on a forum like this is selling one its unlikely to get one new, unless someone knows otherwise..

Me too, they are rarer than rocking horse sh*t

Got my case for my Tmobile TP2 from PDair...doesnt fit...

Lesson learned, it looks like it was for the HTC Touch Pro 2. Dangit....Just wanted to share with you guys to make sure you get one that fits your particular model.
There seems to be a problem with vendors understanding the T-Mo TP2 has a different form factor than the Euro version. I am returning my cradle for the same reason. Be careful when buying an accessory that it will fit your US model. First time I have seen this problem with phones. Your TP2 is a special device ... I like mine very much. Pity that we have to be the ones to tell them their products don't fit our phones...

this is the one i got.
It's because the T-Mobile "Touch Pro 2" isn't really a Touch Pro 2 like you can get from everywhere else, it's a slightly-altered version.
Thank T-Mobile. This way, you can get all your accessories direct from them! How great will that be! It really is better for everyone.

i almost bought that one, but i didn't because we don't have the front camera, so that hole made me suspicious.
only T-mobile have the entire phone remodeled... sort of
while Sprint/Telus versions widened the bottom end where they added a 3.5mm jack, so some of the rubber cases won't fit
However I just recently ordered a slide-in pouch from pdair which SHOULD work on ALL TP2s... because it's just it... a pouch... no fitting needed, just enough space to slide the phone in... or any other thing that has the same dimension... sort of
this one by the way:

I hate those case for slide up phones. The phone is already big as it is. With that case it will add weight and size to it.
I decided to use my phone just the way it is and get a hip case (EASECASE ) and call it a day. I will try and be VERY careful not to drop it.
i just bought a gel case from tmobile for 12 bucks. it adds a couple mm to the overal size of the device but it feels good in the hands and isnt slippery like the phone with out it. the only color they had was black and its not on they're website, only in the stores right now. i am quiet pleased with it.

lol, i am using mine with my tmobile dash (c720) case (with belt clip)
Man Thanks alot for being the guinea pig, SORRY no intent to insult you but I almost bought the pdair case. They are nice and alot of people have said good things about them. I was one click away from purchasing the case for my T-mobile touch pro 2 and i stumbled upon your thread. Its a shame that we are so limited to what we can put this beast in. I currently have my procilla ( thats what I call her lol) in my old sprint mogul ppc 6700 case.

Dash Genie in Car Holder

http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/dash-genie-in-car-holder-p23796.htm
Has anyone used this with Touch Pro2?
According to HD2 forums - works fine with their unit - but am wondering if any owners of Touch Pro2 have tried this?
Thanks/DD
I'd like to know this as well. I can't find it available to ship anywhere to the USA... :-(
Ha! It is so simple and universal. I want this
I second that.
I don't think it will work well with the tilt 2 because you need to have a smooth back to the phone, and the speaker on the tilt 2 would likely prevent a good seal. Also, it doesn't appear to swivel for landscape viewing, which is a major drawback.
Anyone find something else that swivels but holds the phone so that the keyboard can come out?
Can only find it in the UK. Have posted several requests for shipping to the US. I'll let ya'll know when I hear something.

Found this on one of the sites:
"Mobile Fun Limited is VAT registered...
Goods cannot be supplied outside the EU (European Union)."
UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally found a shipper who sells these and ships outside the EU!!!!!!!!!

I don't know where you're from, but here in Europe I've found this:
http://www.expansys.com/d.aspx?i=188270
I'm thinking of buying one for me also.
Cheers.
I'm from the states, and most places wouldn't sell outside the EU.
OK, I just got the Dash Genie from Superetrader.com and so far my wife and I really like it! I will probably have to order another one just for her (even though she didn't want one at first, I think she plans on taking mine over!!!!!)
If any one was thinking about getting one, DO! I think the ones offered in the states are too bulky and ugly, but this is one sllek model. You'll like it, too (in my opinion!).
I've been using a brodit mount : http://www.brodit.com/images/512163.jpg which I've found brillant, charges, can be used in both vertical and horizontal, and can also be used with the keyboard, price is a bit high at about £40, but can be found on e-bay from time to time.
I have this one:

Works great in my truck.

[Q] Plastic Snap-On Cases?

I may be pressing my luck here but anyone found a snap on plastic case for the G-tablet? Or know a place where I can have one custom made?
I'm assuming your looking for a shell type case? Me too
I would imagine it may be some time before we see something like that. With all the tabs coming out, manufacturers will be picking the big ticket items and making them for those. Until viewsonic fixes issues and makes this thing hot outta the box, we're still gonna be little fish in the big pond.

any luck finding something here? i am also looking for a skin case.

Xjarl, I would be more interested in a protective wrap around silicone case. I will buy one the second they are available.
I just found these protective case online.

I did get word that here are in the process of being made/designed and I have had pics for a week or so. Among other things, I choose NOT to bring things up until I have firm knowledge and/or have an them in hand that I can unload. For example; I don't want to say that I MAY have more docks within the week and them not show. I think it's better (and more respectful) to discuss it when it's in hand.
If your like me (and most of you are) when you see something that you want, especially something new and innovative, you WANT IT NOW!!! I am the same way and I'd rather not give false hope to anyone here.
With that being said feel free to pass the word and keep an ear to the ground. I am currently working on more docks (with extra ac adapters) and a verity of cases; leather with and without snaps as well as the 'shell' encasing that you saw above.
Again, I prefer to keep things quiet and to not have to keep up with PM's (and potentially lose any) and to not risk putting my foot in my mouth.
With that being said, I will make it public knowledge AS SOON as I have ANY product in hand that you may want. Also, as of right now; I strictly plan on selling anything I receive at my cost to XDA members. I'm not here to make any profits but only to contribute where I can. If I can't develop or help solve programming issues at least I can front some money and get stuff here for us.
Hope all that makes sense?

AWESOME!! Thank you! If possible, please consider black with a rubberized coating (like the Seidio Innocase for the Droid phones). I definitely want one!

I am working to get anything and everything possible here is the states. From what I know those 'shell' cases aren't complete yet. I have a couple of docks and I am expecting a few leather (or PU) cases in a couple weeks. I try to lay low until I actually have firm knowledge or something in my hand as not to create false expectation.
Hope that make sense?
I would love one of those plastic shell cases. Whoever is working on these ought to consider putting some type of stand in the case, similar to the Archos 101.
Any news on this Steve. I see that one supplier has them listed on Alibaba, but after contacting them, they said they were looking for a new supplier.

BLUREX Leather Slim folio Case in UK, where?

Really want this case
http://www.amazon.co.uk/BLUREX-Leather-folio-Multi-Angle-Transformer/dp/B005ESY8VA
But Amazon UK don;t seem to have any stock. Anybody know where I can get one? or a similar style?
Ta
Paul
I ordered one of these but it never turned up and apparently the trader isn't going to get them back in stock which really sucks as they're by FAR the best ones that were available in the UK.
I had a look and couldn't find anywhere.
I got the ACase from Amazon, arrived the next day, imo it's worth looking at as an (inferior) alternative.
Really do want this case
Feel your pain, I am also based in the UK and am struggling to find a decent case for the transformer.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
The tuff luv case is one I can recommend, although the stand is a bit of an ugly solution compared to this one. I couldn't wait for one of these or the official asus one, but I have been really happy with it.
Still can't find this case
Anyone have any luck? Us UKers are unlucky in this respect!
Actually, it's not even available in the US right now. It's been out of stock on Amazon for the last week. It has their "currently unavailable. We don't know when or if it will be back in stock" message up. It may come back, but who knows when.
Hmmmm how annoying!
Any case similar in the UK?
I am considering getting the LuvTab from Amazon.....purely for the reason I am sick of waiting for something decent to arrive in the UK

Have a look at this case
Or this one which is cheaper.
Can't view ebay links here at work, but will take a look tonight
I know this is old, but I 100% agree on this, its one of the nicest cases I have found but can't seem to find it anywhere as it is out of stock I hate the slide in cases they all look so flimsy and not the best of qualities, if anyone has come across one similar to the Blurex please tell!
This one is pretty close:

i have the bluerex and this one is exactly the same
-J
looks very nice, but i can't find it on amazon.co.uk (i'm from europe too and looking for a nice, not overpriced, folio cover)
i think i'll buy this one: http://www.ebay.it/itm/Cover-Up-Asu...Accessories&hash=item2a140c7626#ht_665wt_1163
it looks decent (if faux leather btw) and feedbacks are good
so why cant you just get it from the us site?
because i tried to buy a thing shipped via usps (not tracked) and i had never received it... probably got stolen by the custom guys :/
i prefer buying within ue borders.
btw, i've ordered that one from ebay, i'll let you know when i'll get it

I actually spent most of the day looking and I didn't really find anything decent. I think it might end up being that another phone model case fits this phone like the Alcatel Plex but I do not know this For sure..mchere are some links I found where the title says it's for the TCL 10 pro case but they are not that good:

Does anybody know anywhere else to get a good case from AndHas anyone seen a rooting method yet?
It's pretty frustrating that there are no cases for this guy. It's sold pretty well and you can find cases for the most obscure phones.
Good case from a good brand.
