I can't decide on a case

I just got the Treo 700wx. I really can't decide on a case. I just got the SmartphoneExperts Ultra slim case but I am not sure if I want to use it. http://store.everythingtreo.com/cont.../4-54--931.htm I really don't want to use a case because I love the way the Treo looks. I like to show it off but I really am anal about scratches and worry about dropping it. I had my Treo in my purse the other day and my 6 month old son knocked my purse over and my Treo fell out on to the ground. It was fine and there were no scratches but I know it is bound to happen again. I am thinking about buying the full body shield from Invisible Shield and then maybe the Palm leather slide case. I am not sure if I would like that case though. I would be carrying it around in my purse so I wonder if I really need a case. I can't decide, any suggestions????

Thanks!!!

I'm with ya, very anal about my phone also. I don't really care for the silicone cases because they cover up the navigation key and the rest of the top keys. I've known a couple people I work with to use them but the eventually bought something else. My girlfriend has the same problem with her phone, she can't find a case for protection for when she throws the phone in her purse. I would say maybe just get a nice leather pouch for it-from Palm or whoever that way it can be protected in your purse.

The more and more I think about it I am leaning towards gettting the Invisibleshield (kinda nervous about putting it all over my phone) and then getting this pouch http://store.everythingtreo.com/cont.../4-25--147.htm and keeping it in my purse in the pouch. That way it is protected if it falls out etc. Now I just have to make sure I don't drop it while holding it.

But I do have insurance so I won't worry too much.

I have the invisible shield on my iPod. It's nice, but you have to be careful when applying it. I've also noticed the corners are getting a bit grungy. Not sure how and if I'd be able to remove it. It does give you peace of mind when it comes to scratches. Keys, spare change, etc will not scratch the iPod or the Invisible Shield.

Here are photos of a member who installed on the Treo 650.

I received my case from ebay today and although I love the dark red color of it there isn't any sort of padding on the interior just the plastic so I don't want to case rubbing against my treo at all! I might just end up buying the palm pouch and just taking the phone out when I need it.

If you're still looking for suggestions, I recommend the Sena Leather Skin. I just ordered my second black one (my daughter's dog got hold of the first one). It's extremely well-made, good quality and durable.

Thanks KSB for your suggestion as to the "Sena Leather Skin" for a great case, I love it since it is really stylish & I dont want a clip since will be carried around in hand or purse. You may have already guessed I am of the female variety !!. Only problem is this case is not designed for the 650. Any other suggestions ??
