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.

Thanks
cihamlet Feb 9, 2010 at 5:35 pm
Have a brand new 9550 that I'm afraid to even activate and use unless I get a case first...I've all but destroyed my 9530, haha.
youngduece Feb 9, 2010 at 5:39 pm
Help a brotha protect his berries!!!
chartman26 Feb 9, 2010 at 5:41 pm
I'm a chef, and I'm constantly running into equipment or running around. I can't count the number of times my phone has dropped out of my pocket onto the tile floor. This would be perfect!
TraumatizedTxJB Feb 9, 2010 at 5:41 pm
Would love to have it for my VZ Tour!
dsump Feb 9, 2010 at 5:45 pm
I'm a street cop and would make good use of this case.
winnersmw Feb 9, 2010 at 5:45 pm
I need an OtterBox so that I don't drop my beloved BlackBerry while in between classes, like I did today (for the first time!). Kinda weird this article was posted the same day I dropped my phone, huh? It isn't? Alright whatever but I still want an OtterBox!
Wildcat682 Feb 9, 2010 at 5:47 pm
Would be awesome to win one
Keegen Feb 9, 2010 at 5:48 pm
I work in a boiler room at a manufacturing plant. A lot of climbing over and around piping and heavy machinery. Right now I'm just using the leather case I had with my storm 1. I'm always afraid I'm going to lean on a pipe wrong and bang up my phone. :-(
hamiam Feb 9, 2010 at 5:49 pm
I have a defender, my wife needs an otterbox.
noviceberry123 Feb 9, 2010 at 5:51 pm
Would love to win this case. Im always dropping my phone and I dont have insurance on this one.
alershka#AC Feb 9, 2010 at 5:57 pm
I've dropped my Storm so many times that the case I bought with the phone (Seidio Innocase) looks like it has been through the war. This Otterbox should fill the bill for my next victim.
louiesmom Feb 9, 2010 at 5:58 pm
I need all the accessory help I can get!
martog#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 6:02 pm
Would love one of these for my Storm 2! I seem to drop my cell phones way too much. :(
chuch13 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:04 pm
PLEASE I REALLY NEED THIS CASE!
sting5566 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:05 pm
Always looking for a way to keep my baby safe. Count me in please.
egads04 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:05 pm
I've started to develop tears in my standard Verizon-issue storm case after about 11 months of use. I too hold on to devices for a while, so protecting them is important. A much sturdier case like an OtterBox would help!
Husker82 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:07 pm
I finally have upgraded to the BB world and need to protect my new Tour. I had an Instinct and hated it so much, I got into the habit of just throwing in my car's console with no protection. I need an Otterbox case to help me break my habit!
machfive Feb 9, 2010 at 6:08 pm
Really need one of these cases to protect my BB Storm.
Looking forward to no more dings, scratches etc.
ALFIE74 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:09 pm
pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
dx169 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:14 pm
I think texting in class would be a lot easier since I wouldn't have to worry about scratching my phone and it'll make texting with one hand a bit easier.
Jason07 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:15 pm
I could use a real case. Sign me up!
SergeantBerry Feb 9, 2010 at 6:16 pm
I could use a new case. This looks pretty nice.
wlhnlh#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 6:16 pm
Please pick me.
fergff Feb 9, 2010 at 6:16 pm
This would be great on my 9630, thanks for the contest.
danesy Feb 9, 2010 at 6:17 pm
Right now I don't have a case for my gorgeous Storm 2 ... and this would be sweeeeeeet .... :p
mbar9607 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:18 pm
i always keep my phone in my pocket or jacket and i always seem to have it drop out on the floor so to keep my brand new storm2 nice i think this is a perfect case for me since its not big and bulky and its durable....so please make me the happy owner of this excellent item
homer365 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:19 pm
I love the commuter on my 8900, I might by a storm 2 if I get a free case!
jrfranck Feb 9, 2010 at 6:24 pm
Just got a Tour so would love one for my new baby!
Nardo007 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:24 pm
Crawling through attics and crawl spaces would not make me nervous if the case that protects my Storm would be impervious. Otterbox Please!
burnthfinish Feb 9, 2010 at 6:26 pm
I want one!
abezapata Feb 9, 2010 at 6:26 pm
I want solid protection. Give me one! :)
mualam Feb 9, 2010 at 6:28 pm
I am a sys admin on the move and would definitely benefit from having my BB in an otterbox commuter case.
commander246 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:31 pm
The commander needs an otterbox case for his Storm 2 to protect the hone when it falls out of his shirt pocket.
uscmikey#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 6:32 pm
It will come in mighty handy when I get my new storm2!
jgodin03 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:34 pm
want one for my off road bike races!
zaxxon Feb 9, 2010 at 6:34 pm
Thank you CB, would love to get one.
es_bih Feb 9, 2010 at 6:37 pm
Would love this. I've noticed a few dings here and there over the last couple of month on my Bold 9700.
running33 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:37 pm
I work for a Fire Dept and Ambulance Service. It scares me to death thinking I may mess up my phone when out on a call. They say the Otterbox will protect then phone from almost any element. I would love to have an Otterbox!!!! Thank you
hoosierdaddy716 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:40 pm
gimme one please
Jhon_033 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:42 pm
I just need one =D
Harley31 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:44 pm
I need one of these to protect my 9530 .. I work doin industrial construction.. And this would benefit my phone dearly... So pick me please
zeromaru Feb 9, 2010 at 6:47 pm
well, its not what i DO, but what i do WITH my bb :P
i take it everywhere, all the time... so much, that my previos... storm 2... with an invisible shield (hey, that was ok for 2 years with my iphone, which didnt get me adicted :P), i got up from the sofa, went to "scare a bug out of the house" (scare and not kill, cause it was one of those harmless bugs that leave a TERRIBLE smell when killed), and i somehow managed to drop my storm from like... 15cm, it hit on a side, an broke the chrome frame....
and like that, i keep taking my actual bb everywhere, the other day i had it in my shirt's pocket, i leaned to much, and my bb fell... lucky me, i was @work with a carpeted floor, and i was sitting, so it was a super small fall...
right now i have a 9700, and i use the stock "leather belt clip", but i find it unconfortable while sitting, and i work sitting in front of a pc :P
TabletLawyer Feb 9, 2010 at 6:48 pm
i would love the case since i am in court and fly around giving presentations, my BB gets beaten up!
paulq#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 6:50 pm
Slim and strong. That's it. A nice grip is just a bonus.
KenBMD Feb 9, 2010 at 6:50 pm
I should win one because I want one
CarolynBlack Feb 9, 2010 at 6:51 pm
I would love an OtterBox to protect my storm2
dukeslb56 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:52 pm
I really need a new case for my Storm since I just broke my Incipio case.
middbrew Feb 9, 2010 at 6:55 pm
That would be great to have one of these cases.
HeftyOrb Feb 9, 2010 at 6:57 pm
This would help a lot with not getting arrested during the morning commute after having some idiot push his way through and ripping mt BB 8530 out of my hands.
........humph.......
adperdue2002 Feb 9, 2010 at 6:58 pm
I have had to replace the screen on my old 8310 twice, the trackball tree times, and have the case duct-taped so it wont fall apart. Just got a brand new 9700, this case would save me a lot of heart attacks.
Wickee Feb 9, 2010 at 6:59 pm
These cases are perfect for someone like me who's phone sometimes gets some "tough love". I "love" to have them everywhere with me which sometimes results in "tough" situations. I am always like that with my electronics, even more with my Blackberry which truely is my Crackberry.
Prince_Poppycock Feb 9, 2010 at 7:00 pm
Awesome contest!
deenug666 Feb 9, 2010 at 7:02 pm
I'll take one please!
gp0777 Feb 9, 2010 at 7:04 pm
Well this would work great when hitting the great outdoors. I like to go on hikes and for good measures my phone travels along. This will provide excellent protection against the elements when using the phone outdoors for GPS or camera! Pick ME!!! Thanks!
decolur455 Feb 9, 2010 at 7:05 pm
Could you please throw me in the hat; I really could use an Otterbox case for my 8530. I work in transportation and I'm always on the go; in and out different cars, trucks and buses plus on the go to meetings ever other day so my Berry gets tossed around quite a bit so I need so real protection!!!
markgruver#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 7:06 pm
I listen to slacker radio on my Storm when I work out. It is always falling out of my pocket when I lay down on a bench and this would work out great!
crackcookie Feb 9, 2010 at 7:18 pm
I want a case for my 9000
ebedoun Feb 9, 2010 at 7:22 pm
I have a 2yr old at home who loves Blackberries. He even has a Dummy 8900. He even calls it his "BlackBerry". He still attempts to get a hold of My 9700 and the wife's 9700. He must like the trackpad better ;)
This would help protect either my 9700 or the wife's from the possibility of damage from the kid.
scoobyjc Feb 9, 2010 at 7:23 pm
oh nice, hook me up with one of those.
tymarshall78 Feb 9, 2010 at 7:23 pm
I like my box but I want the otter box.
wylde#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 7:25 pm
I have wanted an otterbox since i got my storm2 please hook me up with one
nolan.b Feb 9, 2010 at 7:26 pm
Hey,
I've got the Otter for my 9700. This would be a great win for the misses for her 9550. Give me some brownie points :)
xmayze Feb 9, 2010 at 7:27 pm
I tend to drop my storm a lot when I'm drunk .. And I'm drunk a lot :P
mundo472 Feb 9, 2010 at 7:32 pm
I work in a homeless shelter and things can get pretty bumpy.
musicandnumbers Feb 9, 2010 at 7:33 pm
Otterbox case would look great on my storm!
2bsubc Feb 9, 2010 at 7:34 pm
I would love an Otterbox for my Storm 2. I am currently a sensor engineer for NATO and spend a lot of my time outside and aboard Ships and Submarines. This would be awesome!
jeffabc Feb 9, 2010 at 7:35 pm
I need something to keep it from imploding again when I leave it in my pocket too long while doing anything physical
decentfreak Feb 9, 2010 at 7:35 pm
would make my bold the sexiest device in the history of devices. please enter me in!
Aztek13 Feb 9, 2010 at 7:36 pm
This is a great opportunity to get some real protection for my new 9700. I work as a surveyor on dirty, dusty construction sites and my last BB (an 8310) suffered the consequences of being outside in the Canadian elements. It wasn't pretty. Please pick me to get an Otterbox. Cheers!
Solace07 Feb 9, 2010 at 7:37 pm
You dont realize how much I really need this for my Storm 2. I am currently on my 4th (yeah thats right) Storm 2 since December 17th. Please pick me and help a guy out!!!!!!
emmoly Feb 9, 2010 at 7:37 pm
I carry my phone with me everywhere and quite frankly my Curve just hasn't been the same since I slammed the trunk down on top of it. I am upgrading to the Bold and an Otterbox would help me out when I'm having a blond moment(no offense intended, I really am a blond)
levi25 Feb 9, 2010 at 7:43 pm
I need this case to protect my precious storm 2 love my storm and love crackberry you all are awesome I have never won anything hope I win this case really need it thanks for giving me a chance
VDK Feb 9, 2010 at 7:43 pm
Now those are some nice casess!
abryan876 Feb 9, 2010 at 7:48 pm
I Wont one
YodaEXE Feb 9, 2010 at 7:49 pm
I just got a Blackberry Bold 9700 yesterday. I'm a college student, so I'm fairly active, constantly going to/from class, hanging out with friends, and visiting places such as bars. This means that I'm out in different places all the time, and my phone needs protection. Add in that I'm a college student, and that means that I'm also poor. So, I could really use a nice case because I can't afford to buy one, and you guys wouldn't want me to have to stop visiting this awesome site because my BB broke from not having the proper protection!
Fanatix85 Feb 9, 2010 at 7:53 pm
Hand me one these babies. Been dropping my storm2 quite a bit, and my current case makes it too thick and too much dust on the edges!
dudermont Feb 9, 2010 at 7:55 pm
For all the contests.
smcray Feb 9, 2010 at 7:56 pm
My job constantly has me moving around with my Blackberry always in my hand. A slim well fitted Otterbox case on my new Storm 2 would ensure my next phone drop will not be the Storm's last.
rlgwood Feb 9, 2010 at 7:56 pm
Otter have one
Donny7 Feb 9, 2010 at 7:58 pm
snowboarding, golfing, throwing... throwing? yea you know more of a toss than a throw but this would help nicely :-D
leeann25 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:03 pm
This would be a great valentine gift for my love he loves his storm 2 almost as much as he loves me that's a whole lot of love
dmlegare Feb 9, 2010 at 8:04 pm
Between working outside all day and hitting the gym... I need the protection this offers for my storm 2..
Gator269 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:04 pm
I drop my damn phone like it's my job. Once a week at least my baby is laying on the floor and I'm praying she didn't die on every drop.
I'm in law enforcement and use my Storm 2 daily for work and personal reasons. Needless to say I need an Otterbox for protection!! I protect the public and Otterbox can protect my Crackberry!
Kemotaha Feb 9, 2010 at 8:05 pm
I would love this case for my storm2
DJ G.MAC Feb 9, 2010 at 8:06 pm
would love this!!!
ajaygee Feb 9, 2010 at 8:06 pm
Help me protect my baby!
wobly Feb 9, 2010 at 8:10 pm
I can use this for my 8900!
MrTruckincowboy Feb 9, 2010 at 8:13 pm
I think this would be a great skin for me stylish but rugged if I won this I would put it to great use.
ciciokid Feb 9, 2010 at 8:20 pm
I need one of these for my new 9700!
ray142 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:21 pm
I work in the medical field. Always on the go. I drop my Blackberry Storm 9350 atleast onces a day. Having this nice case would nice.
pigdude Feb 9, 2010 at 8:22 pm
Just picked up a new storm and it needs protection!
Spaz5484 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:22 pm
Chicken dinner
jiggyb Feb 9, 2010 at 8:23 pm
OOOH YEAH!
aterry07 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:25 pm
..enough said! Wouldn't you want to protect something you love dearly and cherish deeply..something you treat as if it were your own child..something where if it were to die today, you would want to die with it only for you two to be united again? Well thats the way i feel about my BB Storm2..Cant bare to see it go or even get the slightest scratch on it..hook me up CrackBerry..Plz n Thank You!!! (^_^)

Pathtek4 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:27 pm
This is so rad
baconboy101 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:29 pm
I put my storm 2 through HELL!
Halifax Guy Feb 9, 2010 at 8:29 pm
I've been looking at purchasing one of these, but if you want to save me the money, I'll not complain.
ryanobo66 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:31 pm
Still looking for the perfect case for my storm!
Dinnearash Vareesh Feb 9, 2010 at 8:32 pm
FREE PLEASE!!
Vicious_Cid Feb 9, 2010 at 8:34 pm
i tend to bump my phone during work. this one will give it good protection.
smakrunner2k Feb 9, 2010 at 8:34 pm
I'd put the phone in the case.
rockroadie Feb 9, 2010 at 8:36 pm
Since i have already dropped and cracked the digitizer on my storm 2, i definitely need an otterbox case for my phone.
xhunter187 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:36 pm
This would great to have. Just like the tow truck driver I work and drive military trucks. I would also need a rugged case to go with the ultimate rugged trucks.
Malachi.2.15 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:36 pm
I had an Otterbox Impact for my Tour...now I have an impact for my storm2. I would love to upgrade to the Commuter!!!! I dropped my Storm2 one time without my otterbox and cracked the bezel. :(
wingnut91 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:36 pm
I would love to have that Otterbox.
wingnut91 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:37 pm
I would love to have that Otterbox.
ja4496 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:43 pm
I live with a crazy Bull terrier and a just slightly less crazy boxer who have been known to knock over end tables, kitchen tables, couches etc. sending my BB flying through the air..... Yes, I need all the help I can get, lol...
NBR_JasonB Feb 9, 2010 at 8:45 pm

aguiar0016 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:47 pm
looks good for my storm2
rednex269 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:48 pm
After being laid off for her job, and 15+ year carreer, My wife just began attending a local university to become a Elementary School Teacher. She is a full time student, full time wife, and full time mom, to elementary schooled children.. (well. I sometimes act like a kid myself).. She often finds herself in the great unknown doing almost anything to be sucessful. One less worry of having a "secure" life line to her academic, mother, and wife job duties would be a GREAT help! Please accept this as our plea for a "Commuter Case" for her Blackberry. (I'm sure she'd love showing it off and spreading the "Crackberry" and "Otterbox" pride to all she meets!)
bsoder13 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:54 pm
Yes Please!
hucworld Feb 9, 2010 at 8:55 pm
My Storm2 is like the child I never had. I pamper, baby and cradle this little fella around and he needs a proper amount of protection like an infant needs a stroller. If you have a heart then please help me protect my Storm2. He will thank you and so will I! Lol. But seriously...
ConsilioEtPrudential Feb 9, 2010 at 8:56 pm
Ever since my dad got his Otter Box for the Storm 2, I have thought my Bold 9700 might need one. I have seen him do unthinkable things to his Blackberry and it has taken everything well.
sam81 Feb 9, 2010 at 8:58 pm
I think everybody here wants this! Me included!
CTKell Feb 9, 2010 at 8:58 pm
I've dropped my phone several times over the 3 weeks I've owned it.
balagiwithak Feb 9, 2010 at 9:00 pm
I am an a grounds crew at a golf course. Needless to say I can't count how many times I wish I had a good case when it rains or a sprinkler goes nuts.
sridharsuresh Feb 9, 2010 at 9:00 pm
i have had it for my Javelin... I wud really like one for the Storm2.. Storm2 is not yet released in my country offcially, but the day it comes here am 100% sure to get one..
It wud be so lovely to have an S2 + Otterbox commuter case.
nimocone#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 9:04 pm
As a public safety person and a frequent dropper of my Bold, I can see this saving my phone from a few more scratches and dings.
4872. Feb 9, 2010 at 9:07 pm
Love to have one for my 9550... bought one for the 9530 and loved it
BoomBoomBoom Feb 9, 2010 at 9:07 pm
Because I'm clumsy and the Storm screen is glass.
ubuntudroid Feb 9, 2010 at 9:09 pm
Nuclear Security! I carry tough guns, need a tough case to go with it!!!
dv8shredder Feb 9, 2010 at 9:15 pm
looks pretty awesome
colleen34 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:16 pm
Seriously-I teach and work with blind people so a good case to protect my BB Storm is essential for being sure it is safe if I leave it on a desk or hand it to someone and they don't quite "see" it and it falls. Protecting it is my goal!
gynee Feb 9, 2010 at 9:17 pm
bring it on
Jvazquez930 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:17 pm
Tired of dropping my phone while I'm tackling crocodiles. Need one for my 9550
KC2UUZ Feb 9, 2010 at 9:18 pm
OtterBox cases are simply the best around. Hands down. I'd love to win one.
albokay Feb 9, 2010 at 9:21 pm
I work outdoors and im always in fear my storm2 is gonna get scratched or broken. An otterbox case would really help ease my fears.
zrome Feb 9, 2010 at 9:28 pm
I truly need this... I dropped my S2 while boarding the train and it just happened to fall within the gap and below the train - no I never got it back (true story). Although, this will not prevent the BB from getting run over by the train, it will surely help me keep a grip on the phone and prevent scratches from all the doors, walls, and dogs I run into since I text a lot while walking and truly I'm bruised on my face right now (ran into a glass door this morning) {another true story}.
Well, I hope I win this - being a college student it's too much for me to buy (yes I am unemployed as well, sucks doesn't it?)
Anyways, I must say a huge Thanks for offering this - hoping to be one lucky winner!
corymcnutt Feb 9, 2010 at 9:28 pm
I am poor...PLEASE pick me! I read there were some problems with the lower keys when the case was on; has this been verified or fixed?
benzo77 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:29 pm
I could really use one for my Storm please!
triton54 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:38 pm
Man this would be awesome to win, I'm tired of having a nude berry!!!
TaZ52083 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:41 pm
I have it already but if i win can i get a different otterbox case ;-)
Saleen4971 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:42 pm
otterbox would be awesome to have!!!
dogth99 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:43 pm
I like
miralie Feb 9, 2010 at 9:47 pm
I'm a college student and what with all the keggers--I mean, valuable networking opportunities--and the attendant risks to my phone: dropping it, having liquid spilled on it, the list goes on: I definitely need this for my BB Curve 8330.
Silentbenton Feb 9, 2010 at 9:48 pm
Pick Me
Jinoyn Feb 9, 2010 at 9:48 pm
I would use it to protect my bberry for when my one year old son get's ahold of it!
xchief Feb 9, 2010 at 9:50 pm
the OtterBox will protect it and my $$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Sailmaker Feb 9, 2010 at 9:50 pm
Gotta have it!
bigpj2596 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:53 pm
I manage a retail warehouse and can not tell you how many times I have dropped my phone. Please pick me!!
tk0596 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:53 pm
Would be great to win this.
lakers2409 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:55 pm
I always carry my phone in hand, and it's really painful on those rare instances where it slips my grip. A free case would be wonderful!
wrightc88 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:55 pm
I would love one of these my friend has one for his iPhone and he says its the best case he has ever had.
HarlyFan Feb 9, 2010 at 9:57 pm
I have used OTTERBOX cases in the past and yes they are bulky but they save your phone from certain death and destruction. I am in Construction which means I am always dropping my damn phone and this type of case is the only thing that will save me having to buy a new phone before my upgrade date and not having to pay FULL price. You get what you pay for in case protection with OTTERBOX. I just got a new Storm2 and its NAKED......HELP!!!
ptanniger Feb 9, 2010 at 9:58 pm
For me, no. But my girlfriend yes. She drops her storm2 all the time and since I don't have insurance on her phone it needs all the protection it can get.
chosen1_88 Feb 9, 2010 at 9:59 pm
I need one of these for my gf. I just brought her into the world of BB after she trashed a Nokia N82. I don't know how she handles her phones, but the more protection the better!
afrovballpride Feb 9, 2010 at 10:01 pm
I am a college student addicted to my Blackberry. I work in a hospital, where some bumps and drops tend to occur. On campus, I constantly get bumped by other students and people on their way around and too busy to care. I always have my Storm 2 out to keep me up to date and I dread the day that someone on a bicycle or longboard runs into me again and my new, pristine Blackberry goes flying out of my hand to be destroyed all over the ground. An Otterbox would definitely cover all of that.
rac99934 Feb 9, 2010 at 10:02 pm
quite possibly one of the best inventions to protect the berry! not to fancy but does the trick. everyone should have one!
audiodude Feb 9, 2010 at 10:03 pm
I will be getting a 9700 next payday. It needs to be protected. Please don't allow it to suffer. Won't somebody think of the blackberry???
wcihlu Feb 9, 2010 at 10:10 pm
YeeeHaw!!
berd#cb Feb 9, 2010 at 10:13 pm
I'd love to win one of these!
Photo01 Feb 9, 2010 at 10:19 pm
I'd love to get one of these cases for my Storm2!
chris3896 Feb 9, 2010 at 10:24 pm
would be awesome to have one for my 9550 :D
FIRECHILD15 Feb 9, 2010 at 10:26 pm
I am a firefighter so my phones catch hell all the time. I am also not the most graceful person so need i say more?????
3901 Feb 9, 2010 at 10:27 pm
I would like to find out.
buceye72 Feb 9, 2010 at 10:29 pm
I work in a refinery in Detroit and would love to showcase my storm 2 with an Otter Box. All the bosses have curves and 8830s. Oh yeah they're jelous!!
jetcoolusa Feb 9, 2010 at 10:32 pm
im clumsy, so this would save my storm2 from all the damage that's coming
dgpetgrave Feb 9, 2010 at 10:34 pm
Where do I start? I know that there are individuals who deserve one more than me. I certainly know that there isn't anyone that has been more unfortunate than me.
I am now on my 5th phone. In that time I have had a Motorola v360, a Siemens, Sony Erickson 580i, Blackberry Pearl and now a Blackberry Curve 8520. Save for the last, I have dropped all of them at one time or another. The Siemens took a dip in a bowl of tomato soup so I will exclude that happening from the worst of the worst situations.
I have dropped a phone from my purse only to discover (after running over it) that it was under my car. The Pearl and Motorola lived out their time in exchange for Mamma B.Curve.
Help Mamma Curve live... give her a chance! Don't let Mamma get thrown (under) the train!
lowdes Feb 9, 2010 at 10:38 pm
Please
abeeshake Feb 9, 2010 at 10:38 pm
The BB skin case is just not enough.
eric.w.danielson Feb 9, 2010 at 10:41 pm
I like the protection of Otterbox cases but I also like the slim factor. I prefer to carry my BB in a holster. I have an 8530 and a holster for it right now. Before I read this post I didn't even think there was a slim case that would fit in a holster, will the commuter case? If so this is for me!
misnhoj Feb 9, 2010 at 10:42 pm
i drop my phone often; therefore, this otterbox case will protect my phone better than not having it.
dfanella Feb 9, 2010 at 10:42 pm
...I'm sure it would do the job protecting it from all the hazards I encounter.
Anon_Emus Feb 9, 2010 at 10:43 pm
Thanks I need protection :)
RWWackostu Feb 9, 2010 at 10:50 pm
Im impressed. I need one of these!
ghostace Feb 9, 2010 at 10:53 pm
this is just the case for my storm 2 where i work (Restaurant) there is always flour and the chance of being knocked off belt, very fast paced and always need to have my phone with me at all times. the otterbox case is just what i'm looking for....
Jusmore Feb 9, 2010 at 10:56 pm
I would love to win an Otterbox to protect my (beloved) Storm 2! They really do look like the best protection possible and the newer, sleeker ones are more stylish than many on the market who DON'T have the safety factor built in! Thanks for the opportunity to enter this contest.
newbreedsyn Feb 9, 2010 at 10:56 pm
i would love to get one of these i work outdoors and i need something strong for my blackberry storm 2 and i think this would do the job all the orther cases i have tried just dont make the cut. would love to put this case to the test.
hyopyofu Feb 9, 2010 at 11:01 pm
I've got a bad habit of dropping my phone while driving a forklift. Thankfully, I've not run it over but my last BB had some nasty scratches. Would really not like my nice Storm 2 to end up that way.
breadmanjp Feb 9, 2010 at 11:02 pm
As a bread delivery person, I'm always worried about my Storm getting messed up (dropped or smacked into) This Otterbox looks like just the thing to keep my Storm safe and sound. Gotta get me one!
M_JMason Feb 9, 2010 at 11:04 pm
I have one for my storm and i love it but it is a little hard to clean some times but i love it i need to get another one and one for the wife
Dark Angel Feb 9, 2010 at 11:06 pm
I am always on the go and would love to have this to protect my new Bold 9700.
OCD SS Feb 9, 2010 at 11:07 pm
is entered. Who wants sexy time with an otter case?
x2club Feb 9, 2010 at 11:09 pm
i need it to protect my storm 2.... huhuhu
Crackheel Feb 9, 2010 at 11:13 pm
My Storm 2 would look good coming out of the dry hatch in my SOT kayak in an OtterBox case on a warm afternoon on the ICW.
tnewton3 Feb 9, 2010 at 11:19 pm
I would love to win a commuter for my 9700.
Please pick me!!!
chubbrock Feb 9, 2010 at 11:20 pm
wowsers!
ddude26 Feb 9, 2010 at 11:20 pm
need a case! for everyday use, I get frustrated when i see scratches or dents all over my phone when I accidentally drop it. I try my best to take care of my phones but no matter what they always get dropped and generic cases are not sturdy at all!
Shadowlore Feb 9, 2010 at 11:22 pm
Traveling is horrible on a blackberry, tbh. I've torn thru 3-4 'slim' cases in the last 4 months. I need one that will keep my 9550 safe when I'm forced to endure the hours of dealing with the public on business trips.
Hellfire Feb 9, 2010 at 11:36 pm
Wow I hope I win!
trpttrooper Feb 9, 2010 at 11:37 pm
I work in a repair shop and am constantly on my BB. So my blackberry ends up laying around on my bench all take and getting hit by all sorts of tools. an Otter Box would be awesome for my poor Storm!
rorosz Feb 9, 2010 at 11:39 pm
Would love to win an Otterbox for my Bold!
Thanks guys!
richs#CB Feb 9, 2010 at 11:39 pm
My BB is with me 24/7. I need something that looks nice and protects it from the elements.
Thanks in advance.
bseblman Feb 9, 2010 at 11:39 pm
I just thought it was hilarious that they're offering ONE case. I hope I win the one. There can be only one...
montgomery0218 Feb 9, 2010 at 11:46 pm
I would love too win the case. I have the blackberry tour and the deputy job I have it would protect my phone from being broken. Please pick me and let me see if it will protect my blackberry. Thank you crackberry
mikewet88 Feb 9, 2010 at 11:48 pm
This case is best suit me especially with the line of work that I'm in. Working in the construction feild. Using BB on such hostile enviroment is a nightmare. This case is godsend to me!!
NoKittyNo Feb 9, 2010 at 11:54 pm
get any case, if ANY case at all.
squintyboy Feb 10, 2010 at 12:00 am
perfect protection
linkkoriri Feb 10, 2010 at 12:01 am
I work inside a Costco selling Blackberrys along with other handsets. A great place to work, except the floor. I dropped my storm onto the floor the other day. And I had taken my roots tuff skin off because the clip broke (again) and it cracked the screen! O.o. I am right now waiting for the Storm2 so I can upgrade to it, or I might break down and get another Storm1, but I am running an old bb for now. Now, If I had this OtterBox, I wouldnt be in this position, so I could REALLY REALLY use this for when I do get my new handset so I dont have a broken BB again.
Please hook me up and protect my Storm!
zurch Feb 10, 2010 at 12:06 am
I need a Otterbox. I don't have case on my Storm2.
jramone Feb 10, 2010 at 12:08 am
I would really like to win this as I am busy working and like you I have at times been less than careful. I wish I had one to protect my BlackBerry "investment".
payravan Feb 10, 2010 at 12:12 am
i will love to win this case, all the case's i had before did not last long.
bfd Feb 10, 2010 at 12:13 am
It would be just like turn out gear for my Storm 2. Now we both would be protected.
slayer02000 Feb 10, 2010 at 12:15 am
I been waiting to buy one of those Otter Box for my Storm 2. So I could protect my phone so I can always talk to my family. Its a hard job to keep a phone safe in the army. So I would appreciate it so much. Thank You.
juanmph1 Feb 10, 2010 at 12:21 am
i really need this case because i go four-wheeling every weaken and i currently don't have nothing on my storm to protect it against scratches or if i drop it ect. i really need this case.
DRU9550 Feb 10, 2010 at 12:23 am
...So doing a headspin while checking up on crackberry on my Storm 2 would make a great picture.
alicklee Feb 10, 2010 at 12:23 am
i would love one my old skin case is starting to fall apart
rwbarnes67 Feb 10, 2010 at 12:25 am
Well, at work we're not supposed to have phones on the sales floor and I use a holster for my phone. I hate keeping my beautiful 9700 in my pocket because I don't like it getting all dusty and scratched. One of these cases would be awesome to keep my phone pristine!
doughboyy Feb 10, 2010 at 12:26 am
winnar?
lovetobebold Feb 10, 2010 at 12:28 am

technod Feb 10, 2010 at 12:38 am
i really don't need any thing to do with this perfect case for my Bold 2 :-)
nathanix Feb 10, 2010 at 12:39 am
most definitely want one of these
superman6120 Feb 10, 2010 at 12:39 am
I am a photographer and being out in the field a lot my blackberry takes a beating. I try my best to keep my beloved berry protected and feel like this case will help in that task.
dreamusa1 Feb 10, 2010 at 12:42 am
I hope I win..
icyblu07 Feb 10, 2010 at 12:51 am

Starchest Feb 10, 2010 at 12:51 am
I'm as some sort of "security" at a parking lot, concrete floor, uniform has no pockets. +1 for lack of intelligence.
Jassal2008 Feb 10, 2010 at 12:53 am
OWOWOWOWOOWOWOWO want it
jbuddha201 Feb 10, 2010 at 12:57 am

xenithflare Feb 10, 2010 at 12:57 am
I would enjoy a better case for my 8310 :D
Smokotoks Feb 10, 2010 at 12:59 am
I work in the Oilpatch in Alberta, and its definately not the cleanest, or safest place for a nice phone. I need all the help I can get with keeping my phone like new! Good luck to everybody!
mr_lopez Feb 10, 2010 at 1:02 am
After having to purchase a new STORM 2 out of pocket due to damage...I really need something like this to protect it from drops etc. Thanks!
JRoCk12 Feb 10, 2010 at 1:04 am
I need this case because of job. I work for the City of Huntsville Fire dept and it can be rough on phone in and out of pockets sometimes exposed to water, heat and who knows what else. So pick me because I need it.
velocityrob Feb 10, 2010 at 1:09 am
I take my Storm to the gym- an OtterBox would be a great way to protect it!
underway99 Feb 10, 2010 at 1:22 am
I have three Tours in the house, but only two Seidio Innocase 360s to cover them. I'd like to see an Otterbox on MY Tour.
charmanestar Feb 10, 2010 at 1:22 am
she'll be comin around the mountain when she comes, eeeRRR rrrrr!!!!
new.bb.user Feb 10, 2010 at 1:23 am
I would love to have one of these.
jeffreyinspace Feb 10, 2010 at 1:26 am
I want!!
BlueGT Feb 10, 2010 at 1:32 am
Constantly on the run, I am tossing my phone onto my desk or car cup holder all the time - this case would keep my phone in great shape!
msmh Feb 10, 2010 at 1:34 am
I would make it even thinner.
muzicman73 Feb 10, 2010 at 1:37 am
dope
chupacabra83 Feb 10, 2010 at 1:44 am
I want one! i skateboard and use my storm 2 to listen to music. I tend to wipe out and want to ensure the life of my "business" phone.
Rock star365 Feb 10, 2010 at 1:48 am
could go for that case cause i'm constantly dropping my storm.
thanks
dperry360 Feb 10, 2010 at 2:02 am
A Free case for my storm 2 I'll take one
klbbry Feb 10, 2010 at 2:08 am
i drop my phone all the time. this case would really help me from breaking my phone!
bmcfeets Feb 10, 2010 at 2:27 am
I've been looking for this everywhere and can only find online. I want to see it in person. I run a sports clearance store and I am always afraid of banging my storm 2 too hard on somthing like a fixture or ladder. I wish I could compare these. While in the holster does the screen face out or face in to protect it better??
visualryan Feb 10, 2010 at 2:35 am
I would get a storm2 pretty soon and this otterbox commuter case would be the ideal case. Please let me win one, since it's so hard to find otterbox in my country. And I can't do any online purchasing.
So please please please lemme win this.
master_qq Feb 10, 2010 at 2:55 am
I work in a pet store, and my Storm is constantly being dropped due to all the climbing, crawling, and lifting we have to do. A friend I work with has an Otterbox for her iPhone, and its amazing. I've been dying to get one for my Storm.
ewap Feb 10, 2010 at 2:58 am
This would make a fantastic case for me; I normally avoid other cases as they are too fat and/or tacky. This would look very classy.
Cadillac.Cowboy#CB Feb 10, 2010 at 3:07 am
I am a Driver in the Australian Army, and I drive just about every type of vehicle you can name.
At first this would not seem like such a rough job, but when you take into considering the fact that I'm jumping in and out of vehicles all day long (both green fleet AND white fleet), plus the fact that I need to load/tie-down loads myself and the "usual" Army stuff (tactical things, such as spending long periods of time out-field or driving in rough environments) and it's easy to see why I go through so many devices... Specifically, the main cause of damaged phones in my job is through dropping devices from a height of up to about 3M however whilst carrying out my job.
I have to admit, I'm a little skeptical about the OtterBox range, but I'd be happy to put one through its paces, if you want to give me one for free?
decoy72 Feb 10, 2010 at 3:14 am
Otterbox makes the best cases. I'll keep my fingers crossed until the winner is announced.
thablackguy#CB Feb 10, 2010 at 3:15 am
i would like to win this cause i'm going to buy the storm 2 with my tax refund and i'd like to not spend more money than i'd like to. lol i'm cheap i know...
rseutia Feb 10, 2010 at 3:20 am
This is the best protection since trojan
isuhawkeye Feb 10, 2010 at 3:57 am
new to crackberry.com. would love an otterbox case or my phone
Fishintex1 Feb 10, 2010 at 4:00 am
I had the Otter Box Defender Series for my old 9500 and it proved its worth several times as I tend to be quite clumsy with my phones. I can't tell you how many times I've dropped an unprotected, or underprotected phone and dinged it up, or broken it all together. But, the Otter Box has saved me time and time again. Whether it's the bulky Defender Series or the pocket friendly Commuter Series you can rely on the security and peace of mind you'll have with the Otter Box. And the Otter Box is cheaper than insurance. The Otter Box looks good on your phone while it protects it. There's no comparison out there to the Otter Box with any other phone cases. The Otter Box is simply the best. And Otter Box makes cases for other phones as well as the awesome BlackBerry. My wife just got the newly released Commuter Series for the HTC Eris Droid. Otter Box is on the cutting edge by being in constant development for the new phones. I now have the awesome 9550 and I would love to have the Otter Box Commuter for the 9550. Thanks for giving me a place to talk about the Otter Box. The Otter Box is great!
giorgosh Feb 10, 2010 at 4:18 am
Would love a case! Never won anything from CB :(
afropoika Feb 10, 2010 at 4:33 am
I trek a lot and navigate through the world with the help of my BlackBerry. Often times these nice trips prove to be lethal to the devices I carry with me despite my utmost care for them. My BlackBerry is absolutely one of the more important devices I carry with me, it would be great to have it protected from accidental drops or bumps.
Thank you for this opportunity.

dcburke789 Feb 10, 2010 at 4:43 am
otterbox please :)
ComanchePride Feb 10, 2010 at 5:23 am
I hopeI winthis case! Im so in need of a good case that can still let me feel the style of my 9700! Thanks Crackberry for all your great contest!
cehogan483 Feb 10, 2010 at 5:41 am
I would love to win this case. I work in retail and keep my Blackberry on me all the time. I can't live without it. I just can't find a case that looks good AND protects my phone while I move boxes, climb up and down ladders and a million other things. It would be awesome to win this great case!
jacf182 Feb 10, 2010 at 5:48 am
The OtterBox Commuter case is the best looking one for the 9700. Actually I was looking for cases and I couldn't find one that protects as much and looks as good! I'd love to have this one.
Camoberry Feb 10, 2010 at 5:50 am
I am always working outside. This case would protect my phone (and me from my wife cause I am always dropping my bold)
rvopat Feb 10, 2010 at 6:58 am
im anxious to see if i could try this case
dimek2 Feb 10, 2010 at 6:58 am
I wouldnt mind one this would be perfect for a carpenter like myself !!! :D
yamiyn Feb 10, 2010 at 6:58 am
My Tour takes care of me-I need this to help take care of it!
hogan Feb 10, 2010 at 6:59 am

flechuga Feb 10, 2010 at 7:00 am
Hi! This case is perfect for my Storm!
It need some protection.
Thanks CB!
