A buddy came by the other day with this case on his Fascinate.
It's much better than in the photo. It's really thin and grabs the sides only.
His also had a belt clip.
Anybody see something similar for the Evo. I has the Innocase II. It's no where as slick as this cover.
This One looks like what ur asking for, I think.
Edit: Green One
Ebay Search
That looks interesting. Thanks. I'm going to give it a go.
hmmm. That's a first. I couldn't buy because my paypal is not linked with my ebay.
yeah, paypal has a few new restrictions on ebay stuff.
yeah, ebay has alot of the fake CF pretty cheap AND if you have about $100 there is one company selling the real thing!!! I would love that but just cant justify spending the money(although there is quite a bit on my car)
I believe I just found the perfect case for the Motorola Xoom!
I really love the original Motorola Xoom Portfolio case but the fact that is leaving scratches on the Xoom and most importantly the missing angle for typing on it, was keeping me away from buying it.
It looks like this case I just found is completely identical with the original one, extremely similar design but with an extra adjustment for typing! Hopefully it doen't leave scratches too!
I beleive this is what most people are looking forward to..

I am not familiar with this website and it looks like a wholesale/mass order seller and there is no price.
But at least this is a great start
What you guys think?
Edit, more info:
It's made by a company called Y-Case.

It looks exactly like the Motorola portafolio case. But probably more expensive.
Evo Better Than The Best...

And still no port for charging while closed.
This case will probably leave scratches 2.
It's very similar to the popular Toblino iPad case, which is well liked.
I actually reached out to the manufacturer of this case. The reply back was:
"The price for this case is 5.0usd/pc,MOQ is 300pcs." ... sadly I'm not an importer and am not willing to take the risk to import 300 units and resell them! Even at $5 each!
Hopefully someone will pick it up for distribution in the U.S.
FYI, the KeviKev case is available on Alibaba as well, for significantly less $$$... the markup is pretty severe on that case.

Yes it is availible on there as well now get a quote for genuine leather not the $5 PU man made stinky stuff, add the shipping import taxes customs duties shipping supplies federal taxes state taxes cost of operating, web fees paypal fees ebay fees ect ect and i bet you would be amazed at what they wind up costing. Now look at the flimsy cheap motorola OEM case that sells for the same price, who's mark up is worse? and as you said you wouldnt take the risk at $5 That $5 ends up being $30 by the time you add everything up,Thanks

are you sure the KeviKev case is the same one on Alibaba? Maybe the leather quality is different?
I'm only asking because I was actually thinking of getting the KeviKev case. The Pdair case is nice, but very expensive ($120) http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=11000659_11001165_11001166&products_id=32373

@kevikev ... your points are exactly why I wouldn't take the risk. Note I didn't cut your business down for doing the importing... in fact I think you're doing a great job and a fantastic service to the Xoom community. Bravo. If you peruse the forums, here and at the owner support site, you'll quickly notice I've been pimping your cases... because of these reasons. As a matter of fact, I was one of the first to note it and drive people to your site and ebay auction. So, be nice! I'm allowed to have an opinion kevikev!
That said... $48 is still pretty steep for a case... including the crappy moto case I purchased on day 1. Not to say I wouldn't pay that much for a decent leather case... with proper cutouts of course ;-)

that's good to know...the leather makes all the difference
Also, the xoom is kinda curved in the back...does the leather curve up as well so its not a loose fit on the side edges?

but you also have to realize the risk he is taking ....he may not sell all of them....he has to pay taxes, and many other overhead costs. ~$40 is not bad ....the plasticy crap case motorola produces is just as much

Risk is right the other night the power went out and I tripped on a stack of them lol
I have 300 plus I pad 1 cases that I can't sell for less than I paid I also have 200 tab cases that I can't sell at cost, I could go on and on but that's the risk its not like getting 100 of your friends together and everyone pitches in 20 bucks you order 100 cases and split them you don't. Need to pays taxes accountants and so on. Thanks for you post I'm glad to see someone realizes that this is work. Best buy probibly pays 5 bucks for the motor case now that's a markup

Its a good fit not curved though, I do have one being built that is like the Motorola case but in a carbon fiber leather like material that the clips are leather warped if you look at my website at the tab case you'll see what it will look like but made for the xoom it will actually have a typing position did you guys get the coupon code for the xoom. Case 10% off use the coupon code xoom.

Have you tried best buy or target? I know they both sell KF's in their stores. They should also carry accompanying accessories, it would be most logical to do so. Also ebay always has tons on things to buy and at really cheap prices some of the times, it's where I got my case. Try calling one of those stores to see if they carry what you need, that way it'll save you a trip just in case they don't!
Good luck finding what you need buddy
+1 For ebay, lots of choices
M-edge always made great kindle covers, and still do. Due to a fight with Amazon, they are no longer sold there. I got my M-Edge cover at BJs, but Target carries some too.
Dealextreme?

A decent case at a store is going to cost $29 - $39, you can get basically the same thing on ebay for $12-$19 with free shipping. A lot of times they come with a decent screen protector for free.
Just got a TPU rubber case on Ebay for $6.95. Also got a neoprene pouch for $10.95. IMO, Ebay is the best option.
Retail, I don't know for sure, but I would think Radio Shack would carry something considering they carry the KF.

Speaking personally neither the Targets nor the Best Buys near me carry accessories for the Fire just yet; plenty of regular Kindle covers/cases but none specifically for the KF. I can only assume this will change and soon, but as of last week I couldn't find anything.
Hope you guys fair better than I.
Well, some people actually does sell cases outside, like here on Philippines.
I bought kindle fire case from store4kindle.com $3.99. But the shipping is a little slow.

Interesting. The Supertarget by my place carries them. I got an M-Edge KF case for $29 there.
Target carries some, but they're expensive.

My Marware Eco-Vue case is delayed.. so in the meantime I ordered a sleeve from Case Logic on-line, and I really like it. Was like $18 including S/H. Shipping was very fast.
Hello everyone, im somewhat new here and I will be soon to be upgrading to a Samsung Galaxy S3 (finally ditching this crappy blackberry curve). This will be my first Android phone, actually my first touch screen phone as well. Anyways I was looking at cases to get and found the Ballistic SG Maxx. I like the look and the features it has. Are these good cases (i know this isn't out yet)? Does the back clip come off? Are there any other cases I should look at or are better?
Second question what accessories would you guys recommend? I bought a Patriot 64GB SD Class 10 card already from NCIX for $47.99 CDN (its on sale now, head to NCIX to find it).
Thanks for any advice or help

I'm in a similar situation and I've found a combination of this forum and youtube can take up a lot of my time researching your same questions. Fortunately I like doing it. What I've found is that there are a lot of great options and I'm finding new things every day. There's a common theme though with cases, almost all of them work, some better than others, and some people love them while others hate them. Bottom line, it's all personal opinion for the most part. Instead of dropping $40 on a case for a phone I don't even have yet, I'm buying cheap things to test out before I buy a higher quality product if it's even necessary. So far I've ordered a white and black Fosmon case with kickstand $6, a black duel layer case from Acase $12, and I just ordered a metal bumper for $15.
As for the SD I recently picked up a 32gb class 10 card for $24 which I thought was a great deal but now it is a pretty standard price. I'm going to hold out on the 64 for a couple of months since the price should start dropping on those as well. However I probably would have picked one up at the price you paid for yours.

Thanks for the help, I'll keep an eye out for the Ottorbox and Ballistic cases once they arrive in stores and compare them to see which one I like best.

Okay, I found two silicone cases I really want, I really love both designs but I can't decide which one to get!!
These two are the CHEAPEST I've found that are selling the US, so I've already gotten the best price for the best area (other places you have to wait WEEKS because they're shipping from hong kong )
So which one would you guys get?!
I'm so a gamer, so I love the White Game Boy idea here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/140889990618?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p39&afsrc=1
And then I also LOVE these designs on these ones, there's like 10 different kinds too!! Which one of these would you guys get?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/140881145191?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1586.l2649
If worse comes to worse, I'll buy one of each (but please help with deciding which of the 10 I should get at least!! lol)
Silicone I found is the best type of case so I'm really excited to find them like this, all I found when searching for these kinds of styles were hard cases and I found those actually do MORE damage then going without a case at all! Talk about ridiculous!!
So if you were going to get one? Which one would you get?
Also BTW: Please don't try and talk me into buying any other cases, my heart is set on one of these, biggest reasons is the seller is the US, it's free shipping, and again, cheapest price for a Brand New case, love it all
Thanks everyone!!
If I had to choose, I'd pick the gameboy case over the others. Reason why is because the other cases are too feminine for me
--> dominating your screen from my t-mobile gs3, powered by: FreeGS3 R7 "Resurrection"
I'm pretty sure I just typed "gameboy case for samsung galaxy s3" and found that gameboy case on amazon for $1.43 + $0.57 shipping. It also says ships from US. As far as cases, I don't really care for either design but I would go with the gameboy over the 2nd.
Spigen is my choice but to save $30 I got an otter box from Amazon
