i'm thinking more for work than casual. i HATE wearing a phone casual, but for work, i have too much crap in my pockets as it is, but need something that'll protect it cause i wear a toolbelt & am always bumping into stuff in tight confines, etc.....

i feel you there, i use it rarely for work, but every now and then, especially if i wear business casual. i do like the case though, look into it

that metal case looks good but you have to take a part off to slide the keyboard

here is what my case sorta looks like, without the cingular logo and hole on the bottom, just a magnetic clip that you can easily take off and pull the phone out

bling h: looks good though, only thing is that it would add more size to it.
also you should invest in some screen protectors, and if you didnt see drew's thread there is a 1gb micro sd on sale for $15 here: http://meritline.stores.yahoo.net/ki...o-sd-card.html

so how many songs would the 1gb card hold?? what bit-rate should i convert them to before uploading to card?? would the 2gb be worth the 4x cost to have everything on 1 card??

no, wait a month or 2 and the 2gb will be lower in price.

as far as songs go i can fit about 380 at a 96 bit rate. on my 1gb mini sd
