Im sure most of you buy a case or skin to protect your new shiny $400 Bold....

I cant find a post discussing cases, skins, etc...
What do you prefer? Why? Where to buy them?

Just curious....

I would like to get this case BlackBerry Accessories Store - Product Detail, but RIM keeps pushing back the release date. Last time I checked it was November 2nd and now it's November 25th.

Though I have protected my last two BlackBerry's with a skin and carried them on a holster, I have chosen to just holster this beauty. I am a huge Seidio fan and highly recommend peeps check www.seidioonline.com to research their products. But, I have begun to shop on www.crackberry.com for the charging pod (to take advantage of the beautiful bedside mode) and the OEM battery covers. Enjoy!

Hmm...I can find a lot of posts (but then again, I've had a Bold for over a month)

There are several threads...you just need patience in hunting for them specifically in the Bold subforum.

The holster that comes with the AT&T Bold is pretty good. However, I prefer to keep m phone in a shirt pocket. I just bought the REXRegina Morgan case from Crackberry. It is a bit pricey and a fairly tight fit, but it is also drop dead gorgeous.

I've got mine covered with a BSE for that grip and shiny protection.

I am currently using a black OtterBox Defender with it, but I may disown the OB in favor of something slimmer or nothing at all. I hate the OEM holster with a passion. The OEM silicone skins are nice protection, but cover up the Bold Beauty. At least in an OB you know what you're getting.

Personally, although I am a HUGE Seidio fan, I cannot recommend their Innocase for the Bold. Unlike every other Seidio case I have ever used, the Bold case is a sloppy fit. I actually sent it back, and I hardly ever return stuff. I'm sure the nekkid holster is fine, tho.

I bought a BSE which I haven't put on yet. I also bought a red rubber skin and a black rubber skin. However, most of the time it is attached to my hip-riding in the leather holster that came with it.

i just snagged a black rubber skin from BBuy which works for me - I like to pocket my bb and the skin is not to bulky

zagg.com makes great shields for devices, i have one for my ipod, very very durable plastic and sticks reallly well... as long as u stick it correctly.
otterbox.com makes great skins.

I like this case a lot. When I visit the link that you provided it shows that it is available. It doesn't say anything about 11/25.

[kojimon]

Im going with the invisible shields from zaggs.

[cellinator]

I put my Curve in my pocket. I didn't worry so much because the clear plastic screen protected any damage to the actual screen.

However, I notice that the bold doesn't have that. In fact, using the side keys distorts the screen a bit. Also, touching the screen does this as well. Not a big problem for me, but it IS going to prevent me from putting it straight into my pocket.

I've been using the case that came with it. It's not that bad!

[paperchase]

I really like to leave my phone in my pocket. The belt clip it comes with is ok for the business casual look at work, but that's about it. My main concern in the screen. Because everything above the keyboard looks like screen on the bold, an adhesive cover might be overkill. Plus, how would I cut out the hole for the earpiece. I just want something sleek that protects the face from keys or other sharp object which might be in my pocket. Suggestions?

[user0011]

The previous two posters are in dire need of an Invisible shield, a best skins ever, or a bodyguardz cover. These skins are exactly what you're looking for; they're tough, don't scratch, and add no bulk. They also stick until you want/need them to come off.
