I assume this is the one you are speaking of?

Seidioonline - Your Leading Manufacturer of Smartphone Accessories

Is it made of plastic?

These accessories are going to be custom for the 8350i and will take some time to come to market. Buy generic "curve" accessories and you may not be able to use them. Caveat emptor.

Seidio tested each accessory to make sure it fits your BB 8350. The batteries for BB 8350 are different from BB 8300 curve. we know the size difference between curve and BB 8350. we are working on custom BB 8350 innocase and flexarmor which will be available in about one month.

Outstanding!!! I am very happy to hear that as a reseller of accessories you are checking to make sure they fit acceptably.

Now, find me a product that will protect my 8350i and give me a quick release clip that doesn't leave something on my belt the size of a scientific calculator like the included BB clip.

On my 7100i I had a krussel leather case which had a quick release clip which worked well. I understand that with the camera and all it's not that easy and I don't necessisary need a case, a skin with a clip would be nice. Any ideas? Right now I'm in a black rugged skin which makes the 8350i just a bit too big and there's no way to clip it, I have to carry it around. That doesn't work.

Has anyone found a case that they absolutely love? I am kinda picky but I want a leather case that I can keep the phone in while using it that also has a clip. Am I asking too much? I actually something exactly like I want for a BB curve at the Sprint store but it was too small for the 8350i.

This plastic clip keeps releasing my phone and I have dropped it 3 times. I have stopped using and and instead I put the phone in my pocket but I would rather not do that either.

This one is similar to the one at the sprint store... If they make something like this for the 8350 I'll be very happy!

I stumbled across this the other day in a thread somewhere, I wont take credit for it, but it seems to work.

Go to message/options/general options/hide filed message - change to yes

I have not yet noticed any negative effects from this but it gets fid of the pushed PTT info.

I am still POed about google maps not working at present. I can get the program to work fine but the my location / gps feature is not currently operational!! If that can get fixed I will be content!!

Hope this helps!!

That is the otterbox.
How about INVISIBLEshield? Im waiting for mine but its taking years since they offered free shipping, an offer i couldnt resist

[bear4u2see]

is anyone having problems with the 8350i not getting mms ? I have to turn of my power and rest the phone in order to get them and keep doing it all day sometimes 10+

[zipher16]

the mms is a software problem there is no timeline to when it will be fixed. I'm thinking of getting rid of my 8350 this is the first time i've used a bb my other nextel's never had this issue.

[bear4u2see]

I had some what the same issues with the 7100i but no where as bad I would never turn my phone off and when I set the auto off onit I kinda fixed it (7100i) but I cannot get it to work with the 8350i and it is getting worse I have to shut it off 5 mins after I text to see if I get a reply from anyone starting to get annoyed with it . The crappy part is I waited so many years for the new one and now I miss my 7100i

[Bamellis]

Anyone found that perfect cae yet? I called Sprint and "they are working on it" of course, my pocket isn't much better than the clip. Yesterday my phone fell into a snowbank. I panicked! Had to take the back off and make sure it didn't get wet. Fortunately it was fine but I hope they fix this before the snow bank turns into a puddle.

It's funny you say that... I've been dealing with two different online stores that listed screen protectors, car chargers and cases that were compatible wth my 8330 and my wife's phone, none of them fit. I've been arguing to get exchanges and refunds. They always say how all accessories are tested and guaranteed to work, but I'm looking at 2 car chargers and a case sitting on my coffee table that don't, and I had to throw away my screen protector because it kept peeling back from the screen because it was too wide.

I ended up buying a case from a Verizon store just because I could take it out of the package and try it... oh well.

[Bamellis]

I just ordered one.... I'll let you know if I like it! Here is the link..

The new Otterbox is avail for the 8350i. I have it and love it !!

[xxwckdxx]

I have a otterbox defender for my 8350i love it except people are hearing echoing when they talk to me turning down the volume to 50% has seem to fix it until i get something fixed from otterbox or nextel

[Bamellis]

I ended up with Seidio case and clip and am glad I got them! The only thing I am not impressed with is the screen protector. The edges started lifting after a week and I am always pushing them down. It also scratches.... guess better that than the actual screen.
