Did you think about the Elasticized front pocket to hold memory cards or sticks? It's nice they fixed the problem you mentioned I wonder if they'll fix the problem of not having access to all the buttons since that might be be a pretty easy thing for them to fix if they thought it's wanted, on the TREO, and I imagine, it would be wanted by most people if given the choice.

I almost always wear a belt.

I like the idea of a case that could, if needed, go into a pocket rather than be worn externally always, so I'm learning towards the belt loop option. I'm a little worried though since I've never worn anything on my belt all the time (either a clip on or belt loop) so I'm a little concerned how it feels, long term, packing leather, on my hip.

The pictures on the Nutshell site show a red piece of cloth sticking off from the case. Do you know what it is?

Has anyone gotten the case with the brand new Nutshell fix to see how it works? Also will Nutshell continue selling the old style case because maybe they have them left on their shelves? Would people have to specifically ask for a "new" style case?

Thanks again for the great insights!

Not feeling the phone vibrate is not a concern for me because I myself dont use the vibrate feature. The problem is not the Nutshell case however, all cases decrease sensitivity to vibrate but the Treo 600 and 650 are famous for having very weak vibraters.

I myself dont carry an extra card and I thought the case was big enough without adding an elastic pouch on it.

You have access to all the side buttons, its just that the customizable side button is half covered, but you can still get to it, small pain.

Wearing a case on the belt feels the same as wearing a case clipped to the pants.

That red piece of cloth is their logo tag.

I dont think they will sell the old cases, I checked it out it would be easy to take the case apart and make adjustments then sew it up, you dont need leather skills, so Im sure they will recycle the old ones and fix them if they have any. I may be green but as far as I know they start sewing your case when you order it. When you order a case you status first says pending, then order picked, then order in production, then order shipped.

Any case realy could go in the pocket rather than on the hip, that metal clip is nothing, I wear it against my bony hip with no belt and its comfortable.

I dont know of anyone with the new, fixed cases.

Feel free to ask away if you have any questions
