 |  looking for a thin leather case
Case suggestions for my T665C:
I'm looking for something that is really thin with Memory stick slots and without belt clip.
The choice is Sena (magnetic) or Covertec: Covertec looks great, but it seems thick (loop closure).
Slimness is important for me: i carry my T665 in the inside pocket of my jacket.
Thanks in advance. http://www.senacases.com/T665/ http://www.covertec.com/ |

| Slimmist I have used:
- 'Naked', or with original flap
- E&B Slipper
Sena magnetic is nice and slim, as is the custom Vaja with magnetic closure and slimline cover ($$$!!!)
I carry my T665 in my polo shirt pocket with the Vaja 'basic' case all the time with no problem.

| Dr. Palm Flip Grip is pretty thin, too (can HotSync my 615 in the cradle without removing it from the case). Comes with two "business card" slots and two MS slots. Magnetic catch. Nice light leather smell. Got it for $20. Not sure it will fit a 665, but might be worth a look. | |

| Try to see the VAJA case, its the best I've ever had. I use it with magnetic closure for my T665C. Mag closure, thin, MS slots, Very good quality and finish. The best....See it at www.vajacases.com

| Thank you for the answers.
The Vaja case is beautiful but expensive (49 USD + shipping); the Dr. Palm is cheap (30 USD from Brando to my home) but Vaja seems more protective (I prefer it).
I will check my wallet… | |

| FYI: The Sony T-series case that is basically a continuation of the front flap is available at www.overstock.com for $19.95.

| The Vaja is a very nice case, but a little more expensive than the other models out there. It seems like you like the Vaja magnetic closure model, but if you would consider the snap closure, then I would suggest you try www.directcase.com. They carry Vaja cases, but only a few styles. You cannot customize your case as you can on the Vaja website.
I got my Vaja classic case for my 665 for $49, which is the same as the price on the Vaja site. Shipping was only $5, which is a bit less than Vaja's $10++ rate. Actually, I think Vaja charged $12 or $14.
The first case I received had a minor defect. I returned the case to directcase.com; customer service was wonderful. | |

| Whoops--just noticed you live in Italy. Never mind about the shipping prices for directcases.com. I don't know what their shipping rates are for deliveries outside the US. | |

| If you have the money go for the magnetic Vaja. It's what I use for my T665 and I would never change - great protection, lightweight, and looks good!

I'll make a pitch for the EB Slipper. Thin leather, slots for MS and comes in a non-belt clip version.
Depending on my needs, I alternate between the EB slipper and my Pocket Armour hard case. | |
