puts it to sleep and makes all of the "in holster" setting work perfect!!!

I had an otterbox case and returned it... the poor thing is naked for now. Every case I tried on it seemed to mess with my screen lock button. Has anyone else had this problem?

Nope, my Otterbox is great and it just saved my bacon. I accidentally dropped by 9800 (in the case) from the top bleacher at a baseball game onto the concrete floor. I saw it fall, fall, fall, faaaaallll, fall and then bounce on the corner and when I eventually retrieved it, not only was everything working but the case wasn't even scuffed. | | Offline

I bought the otterbox initially but the part that goes on the sliding part of the phone broke after a week, went back to the at&t store and they said that was happening a lot and i got a 2-part case again but this one, the part that goes on the sliding part of the phone clicks on 2 rails coming out of the other part.
Very nice feel and it doesn't come off at all. Much better than the otterbox | | Offline

The package has the AT&T logo and it is called AGF GRT SHELL, their oracle code is 75981, with it they should be able to show it to you, it is a better fit than the otterbox and $5 cheaper
This one has no belt holster. | | Offline

So, the top piece attaches to a rail as part of the bottom piece, correct?
How durable do you think this case is? Do you think after a fall that the rail or top part that attaches to the rail will get broken? What's the material like -- super sturdy? | | Offline

I don't know if it will broke and when but the otterbox I had broke in my pocket. The cover of the sliding part attaches to it by a little plastic tab only so I went with this one instead.

....and, as I noted earlier in this thread, I bought Dark Purple Rubberized Protector Case for BlackBerry Torch 9800 by Beyond -- would have appeared to be a good buy, but aside from the top part occasionlly coming off, after just over a week, the top part where it attaches to the slider broke at two spots -- cheap plastic -- making it no longer attachable. Not recommended, even for $8.55 via amazon.com. | | Offline

After waiting too long to get it I am very unhappy with the Otterbox. Even with a lot of fiddling with it, the phone acts screwy and locks up so that I have to do a battery pull. After several attempts (really wanted this to work) I gave up on it. Guess I will try something else.... | | Offline

I'm using the Seidio Innocase, after seeing the poor reviews on Otterbox I went back to Seidio. They worked well for my 8900 and I am using the screen protector and case for my Torch  | | Offline

I always had success with fortte flip cases and from the photos it seems like they have a good design for the torch.
Mine should arrive in a bit I'll keep you all posted.
