Last week we all saw Adam's charging pod he can't live without, and the week before Kevin's extended battery review (big shock he needs one of those huh?). This week's featured accessory is one that I have grown to love, the Otterbox cases. Otterbox has been around for quite some time now, making cases that date back to the 8800 series devices, if not even longer, but they continue to change and make their product even better. Hit the jump for some more info on OtterBox and this weeks newest accessories. Be sure to leave a comment to win an OtterBox Commuter case for your device.
Ever since I first got my first BlackBerry, a 8700 series device, I have always been a fan of slim cases, or no case at all. With the devices continuing to get slimmer and slimmer, and my hands not shrinking to fit them comfortably, I have recently been seeking alternatives to the standard slim cases I was using. Everyday life has become so busy and honestly at times it can be hard to be as cautious with my BlackBerry as I would like to be, and the Otterbox has put my mind at ease knowing the device is fully protected. What I like the most about the Otterbox Cases were that they fit extremely well, very easy to install, and protect all your ports. The Commuter Series (pictured above) was my personal favorite case because while it added an amazing amount of protection from the rubber case and the plastic over it, the case also added some additional bulk which made the device sit perfectly in my hand. The Impact Series case offers even more protection, at the cost of additional bulk.
As someone who could be considered somewhat indecisive, finding a case that offers style and protection while still keep maximum comfort while the device is in hand is quite a struggle. In the early phases of my case hunt I used to overlook Otterbox, and looking back, I realize how much of a fool I was. Granted, their cases only come in black, but how many of us end up wanting to black their BlackBerry housing's out anyways? The Otterbox has quickly grown on me and become a perfect compliment to my lifestyle. I tend to be on the go often, and can't tell you just how many times I have missed my pocket with my phone, or nearly dropped a phone due to a slick surfaced slim case I put the phone in, but those days are now behind me.
With the Otterbox case protecting my BlackBerry my mind is at ease, knowing my device is fully protected. Personally, I never seem to keep a device for a very long time, and throughout all of my recent device changes, the first accessory that I always end up purchasing is an Otterbox case for the phone. Although they may look extremely bulky, or beyond comfort, I would say that many of you will be shockingly surprised with the added comfort along with the amazing protection that the Otterbox line of cases will deliver. Check out the cases for your device here.

Awesome contest.

strykerfenix#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 2:46 pm
I had one for my old phone, would love one for the new bold.
acard811#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 2:46 pm
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!
pink2 Feb 9, 2010 at 2:47 pm
It is the ultimate protection for my precious Bold. I carry my phone EVERYwhere and sometimes I don't have pockets to put it in so I chance dropping it or it slipping off where I rest it. I would really love to win one.
SwsFoe Feb 9, 2010 at 2:47 pm
For my phone. I had a dream I dropped it in a lake last night. I woke up and was happy to notice my phone laying next to me.
sunrisepromo#CB Feb 9, 2010 at 2:48 pm
My Curve 8310 says it would love to have one of these.
JAC556 Feb 9, 2010 at 2:48 pm
I need one for my 9700. I drive a tow truck and need a rugged case!!!!
gorgalis Feb 9, 2010 at 2:48 pm
Nice... I have been wanting one of these for a long time now...
notmeforreal Feb 9, 2010 at 2:49 pm
just the name itself would make it the right case for daddy
innoveight Feb 9, 2010 at 2:49 pm

Jonezed7 Feb 9, 2010 at 2:49 pm

i driveeeee n put my cell on my lap so i can check it between stop lights =/ as a result, i can't tell how many times i forget that my cell is on my lap so when i get out of the car, BANGGGGGGGGG, my bb crashes on the floor =( I already have a rubber case but im sure an otterbox would be better
weasel123 Feb 9, 2010 at 2:51 pm

gsilvau Feb 9, 2010 at 2:53 pm
Well, i´m just plain clumsy, that's why I want one :P
tnmurdock Feb 9, 2010 at 2:53 pm
Had one for the storm...couldn't trade up when I went to the tour. So I have been left without. I would love to win one
joshuadowler Feb 9, 2010 at 2:54 pm
My storm needs the protection of an otterbox. Send one my way.
huawuban#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 2:54 pm
I would like to get one for my girlfriend's 8900
tfrankson Feb 9, 2010 at 2:54 pm
give it to my husband. His work is very dirty, he works on cars (mechanic) and as a warehouse job. He needs all the protection for his bb.
stacyadell Feb 9, 2010 at 2:55 pm
I would love a new case!! I had a great one I bought on crackberry.com for my storm until they were both stolen. Now I am stuck with a refurb storm and a chincy rubber case that is already stretched out.
willee Feb 9, 2010 at 2:55 pm
Totally want to get one of these cases
gatorboi352 Feb 9, 2010 at 2:56 pm
Cuz I want it!
keedokes Feb 9, 2010 at 2:56 pm
Thanks so much for the opportunity to win! I would love an Otterbox!
runrhinorun Feb 9, 2010 at 2:56 pm
i have a otterbox with belt clip and love it, just wish i had one that could be more "pocketworthy", so i wouldn't have to wrestle with it when i wear a jacket. have the storm 2, love the equipment and know this otterbox piece would make it even better.
drummerboy8469 Feb 9, 2010 at 2:57 pm
I was thinking of getting one of these for my new 9550 but short on cash! I would love this!
tacogy3 Feb 9, 2010 at 2:57 pm
Need one to protect my 9700 while i am work.
daedalus85 Feb 9, 2010 at 2:58 pm
I work in phone retail, it's a jungle out there! I need one of these just to get my BB through the day!
eddie31770 Feb 9, 2010 at 2:58 pm
Would love an otterbox!!
Illuminatus Feb 9, 2010 at 2:59 pm
I've never been a fan of cases, but if I win i'll give it a try!
seafarer76#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 2:59 pm
The otterbox would be great. I have a bad habit of dropping my phones from the seat of my full size blazer to the ground. :(
r1ckynutz Feb 9, 2010 at 2:59 pm
I could use one of these for the wife! she keeps dropping her S2
hardlyclerkin#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 2:59 pm
I want one!
dgbrock Feb 9, 2010 at 3:00 pm
Do they come in "2 Left Handed" versions for klutzes like me?
Meagey Feb 9, 2010 at 3:00 pm
I work in construction so this would be awesome to have for my BB Tour!! HOPE I WIN!!
nickmo Feb 9, 2010 at 3:00 pm
I would love a replacement to my flimsy rubber case for my Bold 9700. I am clumsy and tend to drop my phone a lot. The case prevents some scratches, but often falls out in my pocket when I pull the phone out...
Nelimungous Feb 9, 2010 at 3:01 pm
Need a rugged case for my 9700! The down economy has really cut into my BlackBerry accessory funds. Just have the little skinny silicone skin now!
Shay D. Life Feb 9, 2010 at 3:02 pm
I currently own the Impact case from Otterbox but the Commuter case would better protect my phone. I work in a warehouse, and dropping my phone isn't something I feel great about. The Impact case offers some alright protection but I've heard better things about the commuter.
nk_blu Feb 9, 2010 at 3:03 pm
I run my own student painting business! I would love to have this please!
kennyj126 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:03 pm
Nothing beats the protection of an Otterbox
john_v Feb 9, 2010 at 3:04 pm
As part of my community's CERT program (community emergency response team) this would be invaluable for me. In fact if I don't win I need to look at getting one anyways.
Bberrydad Feb 9, 2010 at 3:04 pm
Would love an Otterbox for the extra protection it offers and the confidence it instills over its rather flimsy competitors! It would make may Storm 2 feel very safe!
jmdearras Feb 9, 2010 at 3:04 pm
my Tour needs a home!
Sindervhit Feb 9, 2010 at 3:05 pm
Count me in!
vstro24 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:05 pm
I work in construction so this case would be perfect for me!
idkhood Feb 9, 2010 at 3:06 pm
i had one for a previous bb, but would like to have one for my new storm 2.
cburkey#CB Feb 9, 2010 at 3:07 pm
I have the defender for my Storm 2 and it is awesome, and so are the people at Otterbox. I had my new case for a little less than a month and a small piece of plastic broke off, I emailed their customer service and in less than a week I had a brand new Defender case. I would love to have the commuter as well, sometimes the Defender is just a little to much! I have had a Otterbox for my last three phones due to my clumsy nature they are a must.
NTD Feb 9, 2010 at 3:08 pm
I recently sold EVERYTHING and bought a 46' sailboat. I use my storm a lot even for a backup for coastal navigating, checking out local marinas and making reservations. Surprising the amount of blackberry users sailing.
Only problem is worrying about water in my phone. They dont seem to like it much. I think an Otter box may be the ultimate solution.
cyberchief#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 3:08 pm
In! Would love one!
Roo4x4 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:09 pm
I love my Otter Case I have now (Impact series) and have beeen looking at this one for a slimmer option. would be great to have. The Otter has saved my phone a few times already including and end over end on concrete with not a mark. And I have the Storm2.
Roo4x4 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:12 pm

cm99xj Feb 9, 2010 at 3:10 pm
I bought one for myself but ended up giving it to my wife because she is a lot harder on phones. I would love to replace it by winning one.
Jordan12051 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:10 pm
My 9550 would look great with this..
Minacious Feb 9, 2010 at 3:10 pm
One of the cleaner looking case designs.
tuffy54#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 3:11 pm
I have a nasty habit of dropping my 8900 all over the place... it's begging you for one of these.
muydess Feb 9, 2010 at 3:11 pm
I am constantly dropping my storm 2 because it is so slippery and scartching it. This case would protect it from my clumsiness.
JasonT Feb 9, 2010 at 3:12 pm
This will come in handy when I upgrade to a storm II.. thanks
blueagle86 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:12 pm
Got the storm for christmas but still don't have a case for it. Been looking at the otterboxes but a free one would be awesome!
papped Feb 9, 2010 at 3:13 pm
Love otterbox cases
Drootz Feb 9, 2010 at 3:13 pm
An Otterbox is the right case for me because i drop my phone more than anyone I know and have nearly destroyed my current case, which is made of plastic and is practically worthless if you ask me. plastic cases just pop right off as soon as your phone hits the ground. most rubber ones are too thin this Otterbox looks rugged and durable.
ihawkeyes Feb 9, 2010 at 3:13 pm
I just purchased a storm 2 a couple of weeks ago. I used to have a storm 1 for about one year and went through 4 cases on that, and before that I had a curve 8330 for about a year and went through 2 cases with that one. I am an outside salesman in the hvac industry. I travel alot and have to visit alot of job sites that always have things that seem to not like me carrying a bb on my hip. Things are always reaching out and knocking it out of my holster and crashing on the ground, busting my case. This otterbox case looks sweet and looks like it would protect my new storm very nice. I have tried about all brands of cases, except otterbox. Please consider me.
Thanks.
Suefnp Feb 9, 2010 at 3:14 pm
Our favorite water animal is the otter, and I have a few other cases for my Tour. Adding an Otterbox would be great!
cbresciani Feb 9, 2010 at 3:14 pm
I've been using their cases for years for some of my diving gear, I would really like to get one of these for my Storm.
ShaadowFury Feb 9, 2010 at 3:14 pm
This would be nice. My Seidio Innocase II is looking a little roughed up from my constant drops.
Nicketmaster Feb 9, 2010 at 3:14 pm
My Storm2 is in desperate need of protection. I've been known to drop it far more often than I'd care to admit. The fortunes have smiled upon me up to this point (and I hope they continue to smile upon me into the future) and the worst I've come out of it is a scratch and a dent or two on the back of the battery door, and having to hunt down the battery after it decided to play hide-and-seek. An Otterbox would go a long way to keeping the fortunes happy with me.
Hoping I win,
Nick W.
metreece Feb 9, 2010 at 3:15 pm
I have a Storm2 and work out on railroad track in all kinds of weather. My Berry needs all the protection that it can get. Thanks.
rebel421 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:15 pm
I need one of these bad boys. By S2 is still going naked, and I work with juvenile delinquents who often get restrained physically. By BB gets into some tough situations.
Sturta Feb 9, 2010 at 3:17 pm
I'd like to protect my Storm as much as possible, and get the most mileage out of it that I can.
HardcorePooka Feb 9, 2010 at 3:18 pm
I would love one of these for my S2.
daveu772 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:19 pm
I work in the construction industry. This is a necessity.
dekanfrus Feb 9, 2010 at 3:19 pm
My new S2 could use a good case!
unsocial Feb 9, 2010 at 3:19 pm
I was walking my dog last week and he jumped on me knocking my Storm out of the case. It hit the driveway and shattered the screen. Had to have the phone replaced.
This would have helped.
WMC21 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:20 pm
Definitely looks good on my device...
benpierce Feb 9, 2010 at 3:20 pm
...I'll take one for sure!
Ben
killerxmic Feb 9, 2010 at 3:20 pm
I'm a United States Marine, with this case it would protect me from all the training exercises that we do. We run thru dirt, we do night watches, and we just hike in and out of jungles. I always drop my cell, I've gone through numerous cases, I think otterbox will be the right fit for me.
Thanks!
wing604 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:20 pm
I could really use this case as I'll be backpacking through Asia, I'm going to be carrying my phone around so something rugged like this would be perfect to take with me.
BIG CAT 7 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:21 pm
I am very rough on my phones, could use one of these.....
1magine Feb 9, 2010 at 3:21 pm
I tried to make my own by putting on a Seido case and covering with the BB skin case. Not the same thing. And the Seido case fell apart after a month of taking it off daily to put it in the charging pod.
dased1 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:21 pm
now all you have to do is pick my name
adognamedsam#AC Feb 9, 2010 at 3:22 pm
I only have a screen protector on my storm and have noticed a number of scratches on the back so this case would be ideal.
xxplosive82 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:22 pm
Always on the go and could use a solid case!
nick910 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:23 pm
Otterbox rules!
Atomic_Taco Feb 9, 2010 at 3:23 pm
What I would do that would make an OtterBox the right case for me is simply put it on my Storm2!
Tha Riddler Feb 9, 2010 at 3:24 pm
I sure hope I win I havent won in a bit. Thanks
smiliey Feb 9, 2010 at 3:24 pm
because i get black out drunk and wake up with a cracked screen on a way too often basis
jasam Feb 9, 2010 at 3:24 pm
This could be a great way to cover it :D
Snipperdo17 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:24 pm
I want one!
Balance. Feb 9, 2010 at 3:25 pm
I have just bought my new 9700 and I'm still looking for a good case to protect it. I've heard about otterbox and that it does a good job protecting ur berry form nicks and scratches. I previously owned a pearl and didn't have protection for it and I dropped my phone a lot. It looked like it was at war and the alarm doesn't work so I end up late sometimes. This time I will like to protect my new 9700.
BrianM23 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:25 pm
santa never brang me one
Terrahawk Feb 9, 2010 at 3:25 pm
Hook me up with one!
rogerlcobb Feb 9, 2010 at 3:26 pm
I want an otterbox!
vict0r Feb 9, 2010 at 3:26 pm
i own a storm 1 and its caseless!!! no one loves a caseless storm!! id love to win this please!
ncf632 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:28 pm
I want it, please!!!
Newguy58 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:28 pm
One of those nice cases would sure help my BB Tour make it through this cold and snowy winter that is if i get picked.
sgtboots Feb 9, 2010 at 3:30 pm
I would love to have an Otterbox, it would save my phone when it does cartwheels down the driveway.
ocyrus99#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 3:30 pm
I've been looking at this case for a bit, getting it for free would be perfect!
PossumPete Feb 9, 2010 at 3:30 pm
My Storm is always falling out of my:
Pocket
Belt Holder
Hand
I've already broken 3 Seido cases.
ferddy Feb 9, 2010 at 3:32 pm
I Otter use one of these!
lostaggie Feb 9, 2010 at 3:32 pm
This is a great case...
batrad Feb 9, 2010 at 3:32 pm
Sweet.. no more bruises on my Bold 9700
I have butter fingers..
Go through 2-3 devices a year...
asggold Feb 9, 2010 at 3:33 pm
I was at the RIM store stuck in the ATL airport thinking how nice it would be to have a case where I could not worry about dropping and still clip to my belt. I did not purchase prior to this because of the previous issues mentioned witht he case being too tight and messing with the screen touch. I travel quite a bit and have gone through numerous cases/clips in the past breaking when sitting in chairs (on the arm of the chair). Hopefully this would be the last case I would ever need.
disneynorth Feb 9, 2010 at 3:34 pm
I'd like to win one please!
robnhl Feb 9, 2010 at 3:35 pm
I'm an IT manager. Crawling around in Telco closets and Data Centers means I drop my BlackBerry..a lot. Would love one for my Storm2.
exoduster18 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:36 pm
Between my clutz-iness and my kids, I NEED an OtterBox to keep it safe, but I don't want to pay for the Defender nor do I want something that thick as I carry my Storm in my pocket.....Please, oh please, pick me.......
shemmy009 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:36 pm
Obviously I'm a Crackberry addict, as I use my BB Storm2 for everything. I currently don't have any protection on the device. I had the Zagg plastic covering on my Storm1 but found the edges would begin to peel off.
Now that I have a new baby, (she's 9 months old now) and loves to handle the BB. I let her play some simple baby games as well as hold while music plays.
With an Otterbox case, I can rest assured that while I handle my BB frequently, I won't have to worry about dropping the device as much, as well as which pocket to place it in so as to avoid knicks and scratches, and over course with the baby, she can hold the BB more securely and even if she drops it, it will be protected.
Thank you,
Casey
Umass021 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:36 pm
I would like to win this case.
rswain64#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 3:37 pm
Pick me and my original Storm!
Machine gunport Feb 9, 2010 at 3:37 pm
please let me win a nice otterbox for my Storm.
sagarp14 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:37 pm
I need one for my tour because I drop it way too much. The case I have now is starting to look pretty bad. I hear these are pretty good so it should last me a while.
SLVR6 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:38 pm
I always drop my phone! Doing too many things at the same time while trying to check my email. My phone will thank you!
pkcable Feb 9, 2010 at 3:41 pm
We are about to get another 2 feet of snow here in Philly, on top of the 2 we just got I NEED this to protect my baby!
Bagums Feb 9, 2010 at 3:42 pm
I've been looking at this case a lot and it seems really nice, I'm just torn seeing as it would have to be removed each time I wanted to use my car kit and also the cradle.
Jason Vorheez Feb 9, 2010 at 3:42 pm
I need this case because i coach soccer practice and I constantly have my blackberry in my hand (I use the timer functions a lot. One time one of the kids kicked a ball at me and i dropped my curve 8310 and got a nasty scrape on it (I've now since upgraded to the bold 9700, so you really see why I need the extra protection!)
amoore79 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:43 pm
Just switched to a Tour from the Storm; haven't picked up a case for this one. Would love to win an Otterbox for it! Heard many good things about them!
meatball66 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:43 pm
I work in the telecommunications field and an Otter box would protect my BlackBerry while I am running cables outside on the poles and sides of buildings.
eagansonbass Feb 9, 2010 at 3:45 pm
I fish a lot and would like to keep my phone from getting beat up when I am on the water in the boat!!!
ctsmd Feb 9, 2010 at 3:46 pm
Need one
fraunhofer777 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:46 pm
I have a bad habit of knocking my phone in its current holster or out of the holster when i'm working underneath desks or simply just walking around (i'm a clutz).
Pick me drm2blv!!
Callindril Feb 9, 2010 at 3:47 pm
I have yet to find a good case, Have tried several different ones..with the feather being my favorite so far, except for the fact I have to get a new one over 4-5 months as they tend to fall apart...
Wonder if an Otterbox would be as good as the feather and hold up any better...
surrender_jj Feb 9, 2010 at 3:47 pm
i'm a traveling computer salesman. i've already cracked a screen, please help me
evj207 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:49 pm

steelval3 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:50 pm
Thanks mommy
but seriously, I could use a case!!! for my Tour 9630, por favor
imdabold1 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:50 pm

Live4Adventure Feb 9, 2010 at 3:50 pm
I wanna protect my storm 2 from the wear and tear of everyday use
gerry702 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:51 pm
i could use one of these, i had a bodyglove case for my 9700 but one of the snaps broke off now i need to replace it and was looking at the otter box hopefully i can win one, that would sure be nice
jonholmes Feb 9, 2010 at 3:53 pm
I could really use one of these! I work in a shop all day, and my 9700 already has a scratch on it. PICK ME!
bjustice Feb 9, 2010 at 3:53 pm
I really want a defender for my 8530!
chaz0717 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:53 pm
I'm on the road 48 weeks a year. My bb is my lifeline to everything important. I have gone thru 2 bb's in the last 8 months. This sure would give me piece of mind.

This is the case I have been waiting to purchase... here is to lucky #7!
mr1030 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:55 pm
I am a deputy sheriff and my daily activities at work are pretty rough on my phones. I picked up a Storm2 the day it came out. I love the phone but have to admit I've already dinged it up even thought I try to be careful with it. One of these Otterbox cases would be perfect.
outkazt17 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:55 pm
PICK ME! I would love to have one of these for my storm!
PTzero Feb 9, 2010 at 3:55 pm
I've always wanted to try out one of these. I'd love to win one.
daqie Feb 9, 2010 at 3:56 pm
It's not because of what I do that I need an Otterbox to protect my 9000. It's because of who I am. I'm a natural-born klutz!
spadz93 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:56 pm
i need this case sooo bad... my phone gets soo many scratches!
boondocker Feb 9, 2010 at 3:57 pm
id like to win one for my curve 8330 because i just won an unlock code from you guys and guess what you cant unlock 8330s! pick me i deserve it :D anyone want an unlock code lol..
Romanu Feb 9, 2010 at 3:58 pm
I wouldn't have to worry when my 5 year old son accidentally drops the phone when he is playing games.
markstone64 Feb 9, 2010 at 3:59 pm
Just what I need to keep my BB Storm2 protected from daily use and abuse, including water and unintended drops.
kidkamel Feb 9, 2010 at 3:59 pm
This would protect my Storm and would look cool too
Please pick me
UFCfan Feb 9, 2010 at 3:59 pm
Otterbox RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Smurfy71 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:01 pm
I work in law enforcement and hate putting my Curve 8900 in any case, but it is necessary. This slim case would be awesome!
ksaerie Feb 9, 2010 at 4:01 pm
I'm in the military. Nothing we do is very safe for our selves or our phones. I had one for my curve I now have a Tour but have not made the purchase yet. Maybe I won't have to. ;-)
patrickrho Feb 9, 2010 at 4:02 pm
Please
I have not won anything from CB and I really want this case!
Let me in!
Setanta Feb 9, 2010 at 4:04 pm
I'm definitely gonna have to get one. I use the defender all week, but I don't need it everyday.
edyts Feb 9, 2010 at 4:05 pm
Id sure like to win this , to keep my phone safe in the kitchen
vlkers7171 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:07 pm
I just got a storm 2 and waiting to get a good case...please Please PLEASE let me get this! :-)
Author Baby Feb 9, 2010 at 4:07 pm
This would be perfect for my Storm2 because just started a construction job with my cousin and I am terrified to take my phone out of my pocket while on the job ! Thanks for the chance ! Goodluck to all !
pdx337 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:08 pm
I take my Storm (Not a Storm2) with me when I backpack and climb. Many remote locations I visit lack phones but do have cell coverage. Right now I use bubble wrap and plastic bags. An OtterBox Case would be an elegant upgrade.
devilsadidas Feb 9, 2010 at 4:10 pm
i need a new one as mine fell of the car getting onto the highway, roughly 55mph then was ran over by the car behind me while i was running back to get it. phone still works great but the rubber on my case has a few tear marks that bug me when typing.
habs_fan Feb 9, 2010 at 4:11 pm
never tried one but looks great
kaptiv8her Feb 9, 2010 at 4:11 pm
Please please pretty please
hoopstarrr23 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:15 pm
I've dropped three Storm 1s several times and got stuck with refurbished ones. I don't want to risk the same fate for my Storm 2.
silverarrows Feb 9, 2010 at 4:15 pm
i've been looking to purchase one for over a month now, but it just isn't available here either on ebay or any other online shopping sites.... and lets not even talk abt local retail outlets in terms of bb accessories! :(
McNooberson Feb 9, 2010 at 4:16 pm
I'm a student looking forward to becoming a marine biologist! I would LOVE to have one of these babies for my storm2. Right now I'm stuck with a half-broken body glove, and although i love it dearly, it is time for a new one!
beek15853 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:16 pm
Hello, I am a contractor and often have my phone in grueling conditions. The OtterBox would be useful tool to protect my phone from the frequent drops that it endures.
Thank you. Joe
rj5570 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:18 pm
I really want this for my nakied storm!!!! PLEASE!!!
Tiguere Feb 9, 2010 at 4:18 pm

remmjob Feb 9, 2010 at 4:26 pm
I've been thinking about one of these for a while!
cjhpe Feb 9, 2010 at 4:26 pm
I have just been looking at the otterbox as a replacement for my existing BB case that is about to wear out...hook me up crackberry!!!
AFriske Feb 9, 2010 at 4:28 pm
I'd give it to my wife, as I have an otter box on my tour that I love.
ICEMAN9 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:28 pm

swong1990 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:29 pm
i would like one for my 8900
franzenjg Feb 9, 2010 at 4:29 pm
I have two very technologically inquisitive girls that like to try and play with daddy and mommy's phones. And no matter how good I am at keeping my phone on me or setting it out of their reach inevitably it gets grabbed and even thrown at times. I don't think I can handle seeing my Storm2 tossed one more time. Oh, I am also a High School teacher and my phone is in my suit pocket all day and gets banged up against desks. This would definitely help at home and school.
Thanks for considering!
xeju Feb 9, 2010 at 4:30 pm
I used to have a Curve 8320 which came with a nice, snug holster. Then I briefly had a Curve 8520 which came with nothing. Recently I got a Bold 9700. That came with a bulky, clip on holster which I guess is real nice. But I've found myself reverting to the old 8320's holster, so I can slip both phone and case into my pocket. The problem is that the Bold is actually slimmer than the old Curve, so the phone doesn't fit snugly in there and sometimes falls out. I'd love a nice case to protect my new Bold 9700!
mecoby21 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:30 pm
This product sounds awesome and just what we have been looking for. My husband has gone through two blackberry's in the last year due to the abrasive elements of his job. I would love to have this case for him and hopefully won't need to buy another phone for awhile.
karagounis Feb 9, 2010 at 4:30 pm
These case are great. I've owned one for my last 3 blackberries: Storm, Storm 2, and Curve 5530. The commuter is my all-around favorite. And you can real bargins on ebay, if you search hard enough.
JW_B-Berry Feb 9, 2010 at 4:32 pm
Im a server and my bberry takes a good bit. Between being stuffed in my pocket and random droppings... this would be amazing to have for my tour!
jonathanpugh Feb 9, 2010 at 4:31 pm
While I am sure that Best Buy's black tied geeks would love to honor my warranty a third time, I think that an Otterbox would be perfect for protecting my Storm2 from the benzene, napthalene, and other gunk that I run into while conducting environmental remediations on former manufactured gas plant sites. I use the voice note recorder every single day that I am out on my site instead of paper and pen. Thanks in advance!
P.S. - I also have twin, 5 year-old boys, which in hindsight may be a greater risk than my job!
Matt-M Feb 9, 2010 at 4:32 pm
Who couldnt use one of these, best protection out there!
jgfan1972 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:32 pm
I have a generic case and its ok, but I could really protect my BaBy with this.
bubbasixx Feb 9, 2010 at 4:32 pm
I'd love to use one of these. It would keep it safe from all the kids.
Marredding Feb 9, 2010 at 4:35 pm
I would love to have one of these to protect my baby
eBoyDog Feb 9, 2010 at 4:37 pm
Nothing better, you can't have a BlackBerry unless you protect it with a OtterBox case!!
defender007 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:38 pm
I have used the ottebox case on a iPhone, Bold 9000, Curve 8520, Bold 9700 and storm 2. I need one for the storm 2 again. These cases rock!!! I am sticking with otterbox for life!
judpma012 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:42 pm
I have the "Defender" by Otterbox. If you can take a little bulk, it is the greatest protection you can get. Very well made with attention to detail. Have dropped my Tour a couple of times without the slightest worry. Just putting it on your phone will convince you of its durability
fritz269 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:42 pm
I could really use one since I carry my phone whereever I go.
QuEeNReEsE26 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:42 pm
id lovee a case 4 my sexy tour!! :)
andrew13 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:45 pm
I go kayaking and always bring my crackberry along. With the case I do not have to worry about it banging around in my dry pack inside the kayak. Love to have one of these!
homestead#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 4:46 pm
Commuter case should fit in the pocket when working in the office and provide good protection in the tool pouch when doing farm work or repairing equipment. Would like my original model Storm to last until Verizon has G4 up in this area.
mfar8 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:46 pm
This is sick. Can i get one?
Chef_Hutch Feb 9, 2010 at 4:46 pm
What a sweet treat it would be to own one of these!
posidhon Feb 9, 2010 at 4:47 pm
I need one because I have sweaty hands!
Merschz Feb 9, 2010 at 4:47 pm
Blackberry user 2 years, have gone through 8 phones. They're not defective, I just tend to break stuff. Needless to say this would work great for me.
blakeberry Feb 9, 2010 at 4:47 pm
There is no better box than the Otterbox. The product is second to none and so is the customer service. They are open to ideas on how to improve their products. That is not that easy to do with the pace at which sizes and shapes change so quickly. Otterbox is my choice and has been for a number of years now.
rizzo269 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:48 pm
I would love to have one for my 9700! Keep it protected when I am in the shop working on things!
garypip Feb 9, 2010 at 4:49 pm
Since my boss returned to work he’s noticed a distinct lack of morale in our team. It has a little bit to do with the huge workload we have and everything to do with the fact my boss keeps interrupting me, hauling my infuriated carcass into his office and forcing me read the dating profiles of all the women he’s interested in, just in case they’re actually men. The process involves checking how muscular their shoulders are and seeing if their hobbies include indoor soccer. I talked him out of asking for photographs of their hands and necks as that might come off as somewhat creepy. I fear there may have been an incident on his trip to Thailand.
Sensing the blanket of malcontent our department is rugged up in, my boss took the initiative of preparing a motivational slide show for us to sit through. The majority of slides were of people standing on mountains or footprints left on a sandy beach. It was the final slide that really stood out. The photo showed a young man in a superman costume who was clearly mentally handicapped. The message above him read “It’s time to turn this Down syndrome, into an Up Syndrome” At that point my boss gave us all an exuberant thumbs up to really hit the point home, much like the final glossy red swing of a seal club.
When Mike pointed out that this might be considered offensive, my boss countered with the argument
“You can’t really make fun of retards because they’re oblivious to it. If a mongospaz doesn’t get the joke, then were you ever really making fun of them?”
I’m no expert, but I’m fairly sure he got that from ancient Zen Buddhist scripture.
Oh shit, it just occurred to me. Perhaps he wants the ones with Adams Apples.

seminick Feb 9, 2010 at 4:50 pm
I'm rough with my phones sometimes, as much as I love them. This would be great to have! Please Crackberry- I've always wanted an Otterbox!
Jwilson1179 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:50 pm
I need a good case for my 9550 to protect it while I am in the lab
Lonestarkl Feb 9, 2010 at 4:50 pm
I need a new case
The Dalek Feb 9, 2010 at 4:50 pm
I'm a father of a 1 yr old. Needless to say the corners on my storm are chewed and it has been dropped several times... I could use an Otterbox
Newram Feb 9, 2010 at 4:50 pm
I'm on my second Tour...I need protection
wbrice83186 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:50 pm
I have the Storm 1 but would like this anyways
f4ipilot Feb 9, 2010 at 4:51 pm
Seeing that Blackberry's are multitasking phones as far as voice, data etc. I like to take it a step further and use my Blackberry Tour for other every day uses. For example when changing a tire on my truck I use it for a wheel chock. I also use it for a door stop when I am carrying stuff in and out of my house. I use it when I am eating lunch and the table rocks, I just stuff my Blackberry under one leg to level it up so I don't spill my drink. When I am cutting trees down with my chainsaw I use it as a wedge so the tree falls where I want it to. All these would require an Otterbox.......so I am entering this contest. Thanks.
fullmz Feb 9, 2010 at 4:53 pm
I'd love one!
killerokapi Feb 9, 2010 at 4:53 pm
Protect my Mr. Blackberry!
MeanGreenZ71 Feb 9, 2010 at 4:55 pm
I need one of these cases for my beloved Tour. I carry it everywhere under the sun which isnt always "phone friendly." I own my own detailing business and im currently picking up my BB with wet or dirty hands. This would keep my Tour clean, protected, and ready to take on whatever I throw at it next (in style might I add).
troysmadhouse Feb 9, 2010 at 4:55 pm
As a teacher, I would use this OtterBox case for my phone in the classroom. I am always dropping it, but I use my phone for email, online classes (IM) and attendance. It's invaluable!!! The protection would be awesome... and welcomed.
Laserpointer Feb 9, 2010 at 4:55 pm
I sure could use one for my 9700!
Thanks!
tubagod#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 4:59 pm
I've heard a lot of good things about these cases. Would love to experience it firsthand.
prodigy1814 Feb 9, 2010 at 5:01 pm
Tour. I work in industrial hygiene. I need my phone protected day in and day out.

My 9700 needs a good protection, that's why lolo:D
Joshua_helm#IM Feb 9, 2010 at 5:07 pm
Just got a new tour its needs that case!
curtis91gsp Feb 9, 2010 at 5:07 pm
I could really use a case when I am outside working. Please give me an opportunity to put it to good use! Thanks
AverageUSCJoe Feb 9, 2010 at 5:07 pm
do I need a case. I have twin boys who are constantly grabing my phone and I have to get to it before them. And on occasion making me drop it. If I had this case it would make sure I was protected.
rip14 Feb 9, 2010 at 5:07 pm
My wife needs protection
StaticFX Feb 9, 2010 at 5:10 pm

lanef300 Feb 9, 2010 at 5:10 pm

omegastu Feb 9, 2010 at 5:13 pm
that is why I need a commuter case. My curve had been through a few wrecks, my Pearl even more. I need to protect my Tour as Mountain Biking season is at hand....
friedmonkey Feb 9, 2010 at 5:14 pm
Like most people, I'm out and about quite a bit, and this would definitely make me feel better about taking my S2 with me. Plus, with little ones around the house, I wouldn't have to worry as much about one of them getting their little hands on it.

This is definitely something I can make use of, especially with the line of work that I'm in. Crossing my fingers!!!
CrackCurve56 Feb 9, 2010 at 5:19 pm
That case would look scrumptious on my BlackBerry Bold 9700. :)

zackv Feb 9, 2010 at 5:23 pm
I work on the streets on NY protecting its people running after the bad guys causes my phone to fall often. I really could use a case like this. Its so hard to find a good case but you guys have done it.
steveg22 Feb 9, 2010 at 5:23 pm

Skyscraper38 Feb 9, 2010 at 5:30 pm
I definitely need one of these for the type of things I do such as working in the field, fishing, and 4-wheeler riding. I love how the back of them aren't silicone so that it can slide in and out of the pocket easy. Which my regular $5 case does'nt do. Pick me! Only thing i recommend that Otterbox do is to make a case thats fully waterproof for the storm2.
markhunsaker Feb 9, 2010 at 5:31 pm
Always could use extra protection on my love.
Seymour324 Feb 9, 2010 at 5:31 pm
