Good question. Tough call. Certainly not coral pink. Looking at this I'd have picked the blue over the clear but maybe in real life blue looks sucky. Well the smoke gray is an opaque possibility. The aluminum gray being less opaque looks interesting but it's not in the less expensive treocentral site. Maybe "aluminum gray" here is called "solid off-white" there....
Thanks for the avator advice I almost took Sisyphus but noticed nearly every web site about Sisyphus already had it so I reluctantly went with your plan b avator even though it's not me but it's better n no avator atol.
I don't see the cobolt blue skin there maybe it's been withdrawn and if so guess the light colored blue should be considered it doesn't look bad based on pix.
Just got the new redesigned clip type Seidio holster --> here
The good:
1) Very well made, solid tuff plastic
2) This is the smallest lightest design you can get for a holster.
3) Unlike other companies holsters this racheting swivel is low profile and keeps the phone close to the body.
4) This swivel offers firm resistance unlike most others which reposition themselves every time an armrest taps them.
5) The clip is connected to the holster with a metal rivet for an extremly strong hold and the rivet is positioned perfectly for a good balence in any position, vertical or horizontal.
6) The design allows for egrips sides and back.
7) Easy to place and remove the phone with one hand (what I love about bottom out first, release on bottom holsters is that that is they work in the direction the hand is pointed naturally. You can get a solid grip on the phone while taking it out in the easiest possible way).
8 ) The contact spots are very smooth to protect the Treos finish.
9) Headset port is accessible.
10) The inside of the top of the holster is curved just right to keep it away from your SD card which prevents accidental ejections.
The bad:
1) If your shirt is untucked when placing the phone in the holster its likely to get caught in the holster, but you cant fault Seidio for that.
2) If you sit in a snug seat, maybey a car seat you'll probably have to take the clip off your hip to be comfortable. The nice feature of say,,, for instance,,, a pouch case is that they are flat when the phone is out, so if you get in and out of the car a hundred times a day thats where a pouch case is nice.

Also received Seidios new redisigned cradle type holster--> here
The good:
1) The top latch was reshaped with a rounder smoother design to protect the finish of the Treo.
2) Allows use of egrips sides and back.
3) That top latch sits in the perfect spot out of the way of the ringer silence switch and SD card, no chance of this case dislodging your memory card
4) Also like the clip type the clip is connected to the holster with a metal rivet for an extremly strong hold and the rivet is positioned perfectly for a good balence in any position, vertical or horizontal.
5) This holster offers a little more protection than the clip type since the corners are covered, however it is still a compact design.
6) Its an easy one handed operation placing the phone in the case.
7) Like the clip type this holster is made out of a strong, solid plastic, unlike the proclip which snapped in half and sent my treo to the floor.
8 ) All the contact spots are as smooth as glass to protect the Treos finish.
9) Headset port is accessible.
The bad:
1) Since this is a top release holster in which you place the phone bottom first you have to turn the hand at an awkward angle to remove the phone when in the vertical position. This is only slightly akward in the horizontal position.
2) Again you have to be careful to not let your shirt get caught in the holster when placing the phone but my goodness its almost silly to even mention that.
Well thats it as far as Proclip vs. Seidio goes, Seidio just laid the smack down on Proclip
If you would like to have this holster I'll send it free of charge, just reply (no PM please)

I think its funny, kind if like picking out flaws in a movie. Here they show the clip on the holster upside down also. One end is made smaller so it will be out of the way of the ringer on/off switch, but here they show it as being the bottom piece. Giggle, giggle
I know I'm a dork for even picking this stuff out
I noticed Seidio did a great job at repositioning the clips for perfect balence in both the horizontal and vertical position. Also made changes to prevent accidental key presses. Heres a pic.
Heres the major difference between Seido clips and other holsters, you have to give it everything you got to try and break a Seidio clip. No comments on my pants
Dont worry jennyc this one was'nt yours

Got the Nutshell at last. A watched pot never boils but I sure was watching for a while. Think I prefer wearing it sideways on my belt since it's easier to sit down and when on feels more like a belt not a belt dangler. When I didnt want to look like geek just put whole thing in my pants pocket. And, for what the hey purpose, recently ordered the skin that you pointed out and trecentral lists in their best seller category for the 650, in transparent "future" blue also for what the hey purposes. The thing every reviewer writes about the plastic skin is it grips more on surfaces and it's harder to slip out of pockets than the painted metal 650 they are designed to protect. It's a good thing for keeping a hold of and not dropping. Wonder how hard it'll be to slip in tight Nutshell case. Imagine it loosens in time. It's tight now. Speaking of which, the place where a belt slips through the Nutshell is tight too so best not to try to slip it on and off too far along the belt, certainly not from the non-buckle end all the way to near the bucket end plus can't get it near the buckle end the fast way over a buckle because, well, you just can't it's too tight. Imagine it'll loosen in time some?
Love the speed cars avatar lots, but couldn't load. This site says it's too large for an avatar.

It is impossible to fit a silicon skin in the Nutshell unless there no phone in the skin . The Nutshell could never stretch that much unless you use the shoe stretcher on the other page, again (dont google leather stretcher ) Even then I think you would have to butter up the skin to slid it in the Nutshell I recomend Cracker barrel cause its fortified with calcium and has less fat
