I am looking for a case that can hold the CF wireless card. I looke in the huge Case forum and went ahead and ordered PDair side open case. When I put my stuff i.e. 512MB CF card and Wireless lan card there was a huge bulge that was directly pressing against the Screen. I had Covertec case from my NX60 which I will say was well made and the credit card slots served the purpose of holding my CF cards. However it filts a bit too snugly my NX80 and the speaker and the reset holes are at the wrong places for NX80. I am tempted to get a NX80 case from covertec but when you flip the case a couple of times I dropped my CF card. This is what I mean please see the attached photos. I'd appreciate feedbacks from fellow members for
1. NX80 Case that is rugged as Covertec.
2. Has slot for CF cards.
3. Has no holes near the hinge where Camera is.
4. I am not so picky regarding credit cards as I have my wallet for that.

Your request is so specific that it is unlikely that any manufacturer has or would react to it. Sony has not wholeheartedy supported CF except for their WL 100/WL1110 Lan cards.
Find another pocket in your shorts or biefcase to hold a CF card for now.

I realize that this probably isn't at all what you're looking for, but I use Sony's black mesh "sport" case. It's fully padded (I have dropped my NX80 several times from 4-5ft on gravel and concrete in this case and sustained no damage whatsoever), and it has a webbed pocket on the outside that can hold my WiFI and 512MB CF cards, along with a "heftier" third-party stylus. While it fits the NX80 perfectly, it does add considerable bulk - definitely not pocketable. It's also not a "play-thru" case, but rather a pouch-type affair. I use it for times when I'm chucking the whole lot in my shoulder bag, or am wearing a jacket with big pockets.
Otherwise, the NX80 goes in my back pocket and the WL100 goes in my front pocket.

Just bought a belt holster in computer mall in Hong Kong that fits the NX-80 snuggly, has an internal pouch for WL110 and a couple of MS. Meant for a slim digital camera, it sells for US$8.00!
Made by Sumdex, model NBC-122BK, suede skin. I love it and would not swap it for an expensive Sony case!!

The Bellagio Designs (http://www.bellagiodesigns.com/showcategory3.php?cod_category3=27&cod_category1=1) case holds the CF card with a flap between the screen and WiFi card, but it does have an opening for the camera. They are rugged enough for me based on how my two previous cases have held up to my heavy usage, but if you intend to go rock climbing with it then it's probably not the case for you.
Other than one recent isolated bad review, most people rave about not only the cases, but also the customer service. I have been a very satisfied repeat customer.
Just my $0.02.

I am using my NX70v Brando leather side opener case.
It was a bit snug at first, but now it fits great.
I always have a CF card in it so a CF WiFi card should be no problem.
As for the camera opening or not well its a side opener so it can, or is exposed when it comes to the camera, and mic for audio.
I can plug a travel cable in for sync'ing or charging, when traveling so I never have to worry about the battery of my unit
I can only say that since no one came out with a metal case for the NX80v my little leather case works for me, and I am happy with it.
