Silicone case now available, in three colors! Finally, I have been wanting one of these since my 770 days. I carry my gadgets in a small case, so the screen protection is a non-issue for me, at least...

Is this the same silicone case on EBAY for 99 cents?

Haha! Good find, I guess that is the same...slight difference in price ($5 eBay vs. $21 BoxWave)

I hadn't even thought to look on eBay...wonder how long one takes to get to the U.S. from HK with standard shipping? Weeks?

Does anyone out there have one of these yet?

If anyone gets one of these, could they post action shots please? I really wish their pictures of the cases showed it with an N800.

I just bought one. I'll post a comment and picture when it arrives. For the price, how bad can it be?

Funny; mine says approximately 2007-04-05. That would be a week from next Wednesday

Hi, has anyone ever found a solution for mounting the N800 or 770 to a bike for navigation?

This isn't an answer to the bike question, just a continuation of the general thread.

I bought this one.

from ebay. Searching for Nokia N800 on ebay on a regular basis seems like a good idea in general.

(I don't know if that link still works.)

It appears to be the same as the Boxwave mentioned above. Mine came from Hong Kong and fits my N800 perfectly. The total price was about $10, including shipping. It doesn't protect the screen at all, but it certainly makes for a nice replacement for the "case" the N800 came with. My N800 feels naked without it now. You have a choice of colors and I chose gray, which is just fine -- I wanted inconspicuous, and I got it. Nevertheless, I am still considering buying a screen protector and/or one of those Case Logic cases; maybe I want more protection because I use the N800 a lot. But I've been taking this to work everyday and using it everywhere and it seems fine, so maybe I won't get any more protection at all.
