Contest: FIVE SmrtCases for the Tour to be won! Leave a comment to this post letting us know how you'd put the SmrtCase to use for you...
The folks at SmrtCase sent me out a few samples of their new patent-pending SmrtCase Glide for the BlackBerry Tour, and I was so impressed with the design and utility that I just had to whip up a video and blog it up right away (plus get them to provide a few freebies to give away to CrackBerry Nation!). It's a simple concept, and it really works.
The SmrtCase Glide is a hard shell-styled skin case, not unlike those in terms of look and feel of those offered by Seidio or Incipio or Case-Mate, but it features one major innovation - the ability to store and easily access cards from in between the phone and case. Think business cards, metro pass, hotel room key, office swipe card, student id card or college pay for meals pass, etc.. SmrtCase introduced the concept a while back for the iPhone and have now brought it over to the wonderful of world of BlackBerry, starting with the Tour and coming soon for the Bold 9700 and Storm2. We've seen PhoneSlipper integrate the same concept on their BlackBerry case, but their design is a bit bulkier and uses a thicker/softer rubber that I personally am not as much of a fan of. The SmrtCase design is minimalistic and really holds onto cards securely, yet maintains easy access to them. Be sure to watch the video above for a hands-on look and more details.
Contest Details: We have FIVE SmrtCase Glides for the BlackBerry Tour to be won. Just leave a comment letting us know how you'd put the SmrtCase Glide to use for yourself and you're entered to win. Please leave only one comment (multiples not counted). Entry deadline is this Sunday at midnight pst. *

KestoD Dec 16, 2009 at 11:55 am
i need one cuz sadly i am a kluts n drop my phone a lot :P so this could halp plus make it more comfortable in my hand
technod Dec 16, 2009 at 11:55 am
I would love to have this for my tour...
Roaming_Gnome Dec 16, 2009 at 11:55 am
Now this would really come in handy...
wings3312 Dec 16, 2009 at 11:56 am
Would love to have one to protect my tour
xxplosive82 Dec 16, 2009 at 11:56 am
Definitely would work for my Metro pass.
jeniferlynne Dec 16, 2009 at 11:56 am
this case must be mine! id store a credit card in there and my license considering it will both fit! ive wanted a case like this for a while ...please kevin!
patch8908#cb Dec 16, 2009 at 11:56 am
what!!! what!!! KABOOM!!!!!!!
MattSpartans20 Dec 16, 2009 at 11:57 am
Sounds like a great idea, had the blackberry 9000 case that held business cards and hated it and there were warnings not to put magnetic strip cards in it because of the magnets, this looks like it would actually work to hold a student card or debit card, would love to have one for my 9700 please enter me in the draw
steelval3 Dec 16, 2009 at 11:57 am
i would LOVE this case as a present for my papa
hoonaynay#cb Dec 16, 2009 at 11:57 am
The SmrtCase would be The accessory for my Tour. I'd use the slot for my Metrocard and school ID since those will be the two cards that I'll be using most frequently. Don't think I'll be putting a credit card in it though because if I were to misplace my Tour (knock on wood), I'd be in quite the pickle.
brdl04 Dec 16, 2009 at 11:58 am
That would be great for me to promote my business. Cards readily accessible for future buyers!! this is great!!
sscher1 Dec 16, 2009 at 11:58 am
I was just looking to get a new case for my Tour and saw this. What an innovative idea. I love it.
mikec8785 Dec 16, 2009 at 11:58 am
I would definitely use this. I would use it when I go out at nights and all I need are an ID and a credit card. That way I don't have to worry about a bulky wallet or anything, all I would need is my phone (which I always have with me). I hope I win!
S11208 Dec 16, 2009 at 11:59 am
Hopefully, I'll win..
somuchgreater Dec 16, 2009 at 12:38 pm
Omg. I've been looking for a good case fp. And your telling me I might get it free. Score
Leach0789 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:00 pm
I'd keep my college ID in there. We use it for food and access to all doors. Its a pain to keep in a separate pocket, we lose them all the time.
ratpackid Dec 16, 2009 at 12:00 pm
I would love to have a case that held my business cards. I am constantly traveling and handing out cards. This case would be great for me new Tour.
leopolenta Dec 16, 2009 at 12:00 pm
i really need one of these
anandsihra Dec 16, 2009 at 12:01 pm
Anyone notice how the card actually covers the camera? Might forget to take it out in an "emergency photo stiuation". Awesome idea though.
wishinitwas Dec 16, 2009 at 12:01 pm
Work in NYC , hate having a bulky wallet in my pocket, I could transfer everything in my money clip(metro card too) to this case!
djitch Dec 16, 2009 at 12:01 pm
I would use this when I am out of town and I only want to carry my id and credit cards and hotel key!
o for a night that i go out with friends and all i need are my id and cards...
I would also always beable to have a constant supply of business cards on hand... i sometimes dont carry a wallet and this device would really come in handy with my bb 9700
thanks for reading and I hope to be gettin one of these!
tehdoughnut Dec 16, 2009 at 12:02 pm
My Tour doesn't have be be naked anymore!
hankysmoo Dec 16, 2009 at 12:03 pm
I need the smart case for my Bold 9700 so I don't break it when I drop it for the hundredth time.
LR7 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:03 pm
Hook me up CB!!!!!
ShackDiesel Dec 16, 2009 at 12:04 pm
Hm... Now that I don't need a wallet for my cards... And I always carry my berry in my hand anyways... this means I can go everywhere naked!
YES!
rmv221 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:04 pm
This would be great for me as I travel a lot and I have a problem where to put those hotel keys!! With this I will always know where it is. I need this hot item!
vodomustng2000 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:04 pm
Stocking stuffer for me?
jchien#cb Dec 16, 2009 at 12:04 pm
nice... more give aways
kmartdanickel Dec 16, 2009 at 12:05 pm
I would love to have one of these for my storm2 living on campus with and having to carry 2 essential cards all day debit, student id, and cash for who knows what may happen or need to be purchased would make things so much better and easier to have a case like this!!! Hope I win one
AverageUSCJoe Dec 16, 2009 at 12:06 pm
my wife doesn't believe in insurance for smartphones! Even though she lost her last bb to an angry toilet......
Petriab Dec 16, 2009 at 12:06 pm
I play racquetball often, and have to carry a membercard with me when I play. I'm constantly leaving it behind, but remembering to grab my tour. Also, this would be convenient for business cards, as I never seem to have any! What a great concept!
freekshow Dec 16, 2009 at 12:09 pm
Looks like a GREAT case. Sure would like to try one out. Thanks for the chance !
tazman19 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:09 pm
Looks nicer than the stock case I have been using for my Tour.
0racle Dec 16, 2009 at 12:10 pm
I am down for winning one. Would make things a lot easier
COTM Dec 16, 2009 at 12:10 pm
This would be awesome. With an ID and credit card, I wouldn't need a wallet on me all the time.
mysimba97#cb Dec 16, 2009 at 12:11 pm
This case would be great for travelling. Heck, any night on the town would be great too
triplem44 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:11 pm
I travel all the time for work and this would be perfect for my hotel key, id and credit card. yes please!
agough05 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:11 pm
I just got my Tour and it's awesome! Still don't have a case yet though.
WhiteX6 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:11 pm
Would love this case in flamingo for my tour! It would be a great Christmas bonus:)
poseidon66 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:11 pm
Does Tiger have one of these???
jerzice Dec 16, 2009 at 12:12 pm
This case is a very cool design, I could leave my wallet at home & just carry my license & credit card with me, Nice!
JerZ ICE
jorGeorge Dec 16, 2009 at 12:12 pm
I would LOVE one of these to always carry around my college student ID card. I can't tell you how many times I've forgotten my card in my dorm room and wasn't allowed to re-enter the dorm hall! AHHH! Frustrating to say the least! Anyway, having this case would be of TREMENDOUS help and convenience for me as a busy college student. Thanks as always CrackBerry!!
fubaracing7374#CB Dec 16, 2009 at 12:12 pm
I'd love to cover my tour with this case!!!
Damin69 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:12 pm
wow I could use a case for my phone mine is unprotected right now.
Just wondering if any one has had problems with Room keys or CC up against your phone. I know I had Issues when I was at a motel and I had my phone in my shirt pocket and threw my room key in behind it after the 3rd time of haveing to have my room key reprogramed in one week of my 2 month stay they asked if I had my Cell by the key. Come to find out that was what was whiping out my key.
mak7187 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:13 pm
I'd use it to get rid of this huge wallet..... save my back and butt crackberry.com!
spazn4u Dec 16, 2009 at 12:13 pm
This would be great for a night out when you just put your license and credit card in one place.
dan1215 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:13 pm
my birthday was yesterday (& i have tonsilittious), this would be a awesome gift from crackberry nation!
AnneO Dec 16, 2009 at 12:13 pm
I would like to win this case for my teen daughter's BB, since she tends to lose her license and bank card quite a lot.
seminick Dec 16, 2009 at 12:15 pm
I try not to carry too much in my pockets when I'm going out or when I'm attending formal affairs, so this would be perfect for carrying everything I need. Perfect solution for guys!
elgruen Dec 16, 2009 at 12:15 pm
Cool
bbueding Dec 16, 2009 at 12:15 pm
Looks like a super case, I'd love to have one!
Thanks,
Bob
nuke511 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:15 pm
Put a drivers license and credit card in it and no need to carry a wallet.
brvoth Dec 16, 2009 at 12:15 pm
Would work great for a metro pass.
mickeygoldsmith Dec 16, 2009 at 12:16 pm
This would be an awesome place to hold my corporate ID. Thanks!
ye1cee Dec 16, 2009 at 12:16 pm
It will be nice to use it with the Metro card that I have. Thoughtful design.
mstreece Dec 16, 2009 at 12:16 pm
I would this everyday and would me from dropping this on the floor often
coleswashere Dec 16, 2009 at 12:17 pm
I would use the smart case everyday for a couple of reasons: 1) I cannot stand any of the cases I have for my tour, bright neon pink and leopard...ewww
2) Everyday when I get to work I have dig in my purse to find my wallet, then dig in my wallet to find my ID card, with this I would have no digging because my BB is always in my hands :)
3) I'm awesome so pick me!
cwhite5222 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:17 pm
I would use this case to easily access my credit cards, making it quicker and easier to buy apps from Crackberry!
DDS0728 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:17 pm
I've got a really dumb case. Time for a new SmrtCase!
jmayniac Dec 16, 2009 at 12:18 pm
I travel around a lot and I don't like to carry my wallet with me, but I always have my Tour. I need my credit card, but I always just stick it in my pocket because of no wallet. I've broken two credit cards because of this and it costs me to replace them. This would be the solution to my problems.
Andois8330 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:18 pm
i would put my metro card, id and card for my tour.
tim.zachmann Dec 16, 2009 at 12:26 pm
maybe santa will help me win would like one of these to hold my biz cards for University of Phoenix where i work so i could help more students get their degrees.
yons1 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:19 pm
this would be perfect for a night out in the gaslamp. just need ID and creditcard and my phone and they would all be close together without any hassles.
maybe even a few business cards....
hudss Dec 16, 2009 at 12:19 pm
Was waiting for a case in this form rather than the standard leather flip to hold business cards, etc..but the price is a bit unreasonable for something that seems not so great in protecting.
mr.wizard#cb Dec 16, 2009 at 12:19 pm
i would have an awesome skin that doesnt fall off and i wouldnt need my wallet anymore. win-win...in black of course
stopclevelandhate Dec 16, 2009 at 12:20 pm
i had never heard of the smrtcase before but it would be so helpful
i use my student ID and train pass a lot and of course i never go out without my crackberry, so having the two things together would be a real bonus
even if i dont win i will probably go buy one cuz they look so usefull!
devGOD Dec 16, 2009 at 12:20 pm
i'd use it to protect my crackberry =)
WhiteX6 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:02 pm
Sorry. Posted earlier and couldn't find it. Now I did so don't count this one.
SofaKingKev Dec 16, 2009 at 12:22 pm
i got my tour a few months back and have babied the heck out of it since.. i went christmas shopping the other day and pulled my berry out to check the time and dropped it. it slid across the floor(about 10 feet) and now i have 3 HUGE gashes in the battery door. please help me make this not happen again!!!!!!! thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!1
lilnate#cb Dec 16, 2009 at 12:22 pm
at the casino we have a badge with a RFID chip in, and i have actually dropped mine out of my pocket a couple times and there around 50 bucks to get a new one. It would be awesome to be able to store my id behind my phone since i always know where its at. Now if they could only create a way to completely clean a trackball cause mine is horrible sometimes
mkurz12 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:23 pm
I like it! I would definitely be all over this.
Just the idea to have everything I need when I leave the house all in one place. BB, ID, Debt card all together. Also it'll keep me from stuffing ATM reciepts in my wallet constantly.
Aside from that I'm constantly in and out of the office at work. Always need to have my DL, Debt card (gas and food) and work ID. If I could have them all together with my BB that would be great. Wouldn't have to worry about grabbing my company ID,wallet and Blackberry when running out of the office.
OK, yes my blackberry is always on me and I don't have to worry about forgetting it but still ;)
rage420#cb Dec 16, 2009 at 12:23 pm
count me in :)
stevez48#cb Dec 16, 2009 at 12:23 pm
This is perfect for my wife when she goes to her Yoga class... And a perfect anniversary gift/Christmas if in time :-)
eliasso Dec 16, 2009 at 12:23 pm
nice!!!
barefoot3zk5 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:24 pm
A great twist on a case , Would be super handy with the ability to store cards... I LIKE it
bluekornfarmer Dec 16, 2009 at 12:24 pm
one of these for my tour would be sweet
if i dont win i might just have to get one
komquat Dec 16, 2009 at 12:24 pm
Since there is no need to carry cash anymore, this can eliminate carring a wallet or money clip around. This would be great!
I have been looking for a nice case for my BB, and would love to get one of these.
andih81 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:25 pm
very beautiful
kchicoine Dec 16, 2009 at 12:26 pm
I could use this for work.
kchicoine Dec 16, 2009 at 12:26 pm
I could use this for work.
eleven28 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:27 pm
With this case, I wouldn't have to worry about forgetting my wallet anymore!
edcb Dec 16, 2009 at 12:27 pm
Nice design, saves me from reaching for the wallet.
cgood8 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:28 pm
Smrtcase + tour - wallet = happy pockets
ace2525#cb Dec 16, 2009 at 12:28 pm
I could definitely use this in NYC for the subway...
schmikey_393 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:28 pm
I would tell all my BB Friends to purcahse SMRTCAse Products on CRACKBERRY!!!!! ;)
juwaack68 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:28 pm
I always keep my Tour in a holster when not in use, just to keep it safe. However, I have 2 Tours (work & personal) and would love a different holster for my personal device so I can easily tell which is which without pulling one out of the holster.
The card slot would also be very helpful for shopping :-)
Umass021 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:30 pm
I would like to win won.
vtpritch Dec 16, 2009 at 12:30 pm
great idea. I can has smrtcase?
flyman312 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:30 pm
I help manage a 10 bldg office complex so this would be handy to keep business cards in for easy access while out walking the property.
AlexManics Dec 16, 2009 at 12:30 pm
Cool idea for office pass.
jlseal Dec 16, 2009 at 12:30 pm
I like how it doesn't add a whole lot of bulk. I have a case for my storm2 and it just makes the thing feel huge. Getting to get rid of my wallet would be an added bonus!
AMessy Dec 16, 2009 at 12:30 pm
Looks like a nice case. Checking out their website now.
BrianFTC Dec 16, 2009 at 12:31 pm
The case would be ideal for my vacation on beach! No need to worry about taking two valuables - put both together and ready to go. Pretty plaese?
jveedell Dec 16, 2009 at 12:31 pm
Pick Me! Pick Me! Pick Me! Pick Me! Pick Me! Pick Me! Pick Me! Pick Me! Pick Me! Pick Me! Pick Me! Pick Me! Pick Me!
sundance5 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:31 pm
With all the new technology there are just SO many things to carry oft times duplicating itself. I love anything that helps maintain technolgy AND minimalize the accessories carried. Thanks!
wacky1980 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:31 pm
i'm upgrading from my 8330 to a tour this xmas as a "merry xmas to me" gift. i have a bodyglove on my curve, and it's been great. but the bodyglove for the tour doesn't protect the screen, and i'm not about to fork over $50 for an otterbox. a less bulky hard case would be great, and if i could eliminate carrying a wallet by putting my license and bank card in said hard case, that would be spectacular!
steviewonder Dec 16, 2009 at 12:31 pm
perfect for me, I would definitely use it>
redbadger Dec 16, 2009 at 12:32 pm
I neeeeeeeeeeeeed this!!
jzee923 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:32 pm
This would be really handy as I need to use a metro card everyday. Would also use it for my ID
samuels1289 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:32 pm
Hey, I am a college student and I carry an university ID a lot to food places and dorm and this is perfect for me, easy o swipe off the card and stuff like that!
Black would be awesome!
mke009 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:33 pm
i love the smrt case for the tour! love their products and NEED to have this case! PLEASE
cheechoz818 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:33 pm
Yea! and scratch the back of your phone, very nice, but no thanks!!!
dubbledxu Dec 16, 2009 at 12:34 pm
i would love to try this out for my tour, unfortunately i put my cases through the ringer
omrjln Dec 16, 2009 at 12:34 pm
Would be nice for my business cards!
QUIK_LS1 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:34 pm
This is an ingenious idea and I would love to win one for my Tour.
Datwood2009 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:35 pm
This would be so nice to keep my IDs in.
kagee Dec 16, 2009 at 12:35 pm
I would put it to use by immediately placing the case on my tour for protection. thanks!
BryantZuki Dec 16, 2009 at 12:35 pm
I would use it to hold my metrocard and student ID to make my life of commuting to college less bulky
NoKittyNo Dec 16, 2009 at 12:36 pm
I think it's a good idea, but I wouldn't buy it personally. BUT good idea nonetheless. Innovation always grows and this may become even moreso and break some case ground.
(not looking to enter, for the record. Lol)
Evermore707 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:36 pm
I could use this for my security pass and RFID cards! I want one!
willnths Dec 16, 2009 at 12:37 pm
Can be useful to the right person, I would consider keeping business cards in there.
I probably would not put anything in there that can possibly be deactivated by the phone like a Hotel Room Key. Very annoying to get to your room on the 20th floor to then realize your card doesn't work!
MarqClay Dec 16, 2009 at 12:38 pm
Always forget my work entry pass but never my Tour
scuebydue Dec 16, 2009 at 12:38 pm
I would love to have this case in order to protect my phone from the teeth marks of my 4 month old puppy. He is a blackberry addict himself! He's really attracted to my Tour!
Zipper Dec 16, 2009 at 12:39 pm
This is perfect for me to store my access card for my work building! I have to use it every time I enter a different area and always have my 9700 on hand as well. Now instead of having to pin my access card to my damn pants, I would have it conveniently in with my phone!! Cheers.
Zipper
Drewsefer Dec 16, 2009 at 12:39 pm
I would never forget my office swipe card at home again!
kopitehC Dec 16, 2009 at 12:39 pm
Hi,
It would be good to have these SmrtCases as you can easily slot those credit cards of yours together with the SmrtCases so that you dont have to take out that wallet of yours to take out those credit cards needed. Moreover just have to glide the cards, good for keeping transit link cards :)
themoviemann Dec 16, 2009 at 12:40 pm
pretty awesome...
Bombinadam1403#CB Dec 16, 2009 at 12:40 pm
I'd use a Smrtcase Glide to quickly access my debit cards and business cards. I'm constantly on the go and usually only carry cash and my cards in my pocket with my phone. Sometimes only carrying my phone in my hand for easier access. With the Glide I'd be able to get to everything quickly and effortlessly. Thank you SmrtCase
cwinebrenner Dec 16, 2009 at 12:42 pm
I'd love to have one of these for storing business cards on a daily basis and hotel room keys while traveling. thanks for the chance!
Chiitown Kruger Dec 16, 2009 at 12:43 pm
i would use it by placing a picture of my gf sooo sexy ;)
dekanfrus Dec 16, 2009 at 12:43 pm
I hate carrying my wallet with me, this would totally help eliminate that! Great idea.
danjswartz Dec 16, 2009 at 12:43 pm
With respect to Homer Simpson.
I am so Smart, S.. M.. R.. T..
would love to have it for my TGIFridays rewards card!!
DaniPhiSig Dec 16, 2009 at 12:43 pm
I travel for work, and this would be really handy for those times. Alot of the time I also simply carry my phone and ID for going out, so this is a great item to store it all together!
asianguy80 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:44 pm
when I go out to clubs and don't have to carry my wallet and can just carry my ID and plastic to hold me over for the night. Awesome...hope I can win one!
Milkman00 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:44 pm
I always have my phone with me, and there is only one piece of plastic that I use 99% of the time and that is my bank Check Card. This would be perfect, as I can grab my phone and Check Card without bringing my whole wallet (for those times where I am only stepping out to get something to eat or something).
Would come in very handy.
donald.aleshire Dec 16, 2009 at 12:45 pm
I would use it to protect my Berry...
Looony2nz Dec 16, 2009 at 12:45 pm
Something like this has been a long time coming - surprised it took this long to be available !!! This would be great for times when Im just running out to the store or the gym and only need my license , grab my key and RUN !!!
syllableslayer Dec 16, 2009 at 12:45 pm
As a traveling businessman, i can;'t tell you how many times i've had my hands tied holding my cards in one, and the blackberry in the other. Ive dropped phones, bended important documents, lost money on occasions and even been late to meetings trying to gather my marbles. I try everything i can to baby my tour as much as possible, but there will always be inevitable drops and brushes with phone torture like pavement, chair and table furnishings, children of clients who sneak their hands across the table, everything is a danger to the device i hold right before i go to sleep, and the first thing i check in the morning. Please crackberry, i'd LOVE to try out this case as i'm getting tired of walking on eggshells trying to keep a safe balance between a good looking first impression and a good looking device; both important factors when grabbing the clienteles' trust. Even if i don't win, ill need to purchase this item as it seems so promising; however i would more than appreciate the gesture. It'd feel like a christmas gift from the crackberry community haha. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Best regards,
rj
jmbladel Dec 16, 2009 at 12:45 pm
I must lock myself out of hotel rooms an average of 2x per stay. This would be a great place to keep key cards.
Pick me, and help me save some dignity. :)
Smittyn804 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:46 pm
I work in the auto industry. my position is parts sales and delivery> So i am lugging heavy parts all day and jumping in and out of my truck. Anything to keep my new phone last to the next day would be great!
muscal#cb Dec 16, 2009 at 12:46 pm
This would be a great case for my girlfriends 9630. As an active gym and bar scene visitor, this case would make holding her credit cards, ID cards, and even cash very convenient and accessible.
Coffeegal Dec 16, 2009 at 12:46 pm
I just bought myself the Tour as an upgrade from my Curve 8330 and I love it. Would love a case to protect my new toy!!!
weg220 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:46 pm
pleaseeeeeee
mrrobinson Dec 16, 2009 at 12:47 pm
Crossing fingers for a win!
oldTimePens Dec 16, 2009 at 12:47 pm
This would make things a little easier. Hope to win.
r0cketman22 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:47 pm
Very cool, would definitely use this for my license and credit card!
richro Dec 16, 2009 at 12:47 pm
Wow really useful when you're on the go and you can just grab the Tour with your ID and/or credit card, instead of the fat wallet!
cafe_civet Dec 16, 2009 at 12:47 pm
Wow, what a fantastic idea!
KJoFan Dec 16, 2009 at 12:47 pm
for a case for my Tour. This would be mighty handy. I hope I win to get a chance to give this great case a go!
popkurn611 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:48 pm
I would love to be able to use the SmrtCase on my Tour for when I go out and don't want to take my wallet with me or credit cards! It seems awesome!
fngo Dec 16, 2009 at 12:49 pm
This is such a great idea! Props to their R&D department. I'd really like one!
OrangeSchultz Dec 16, 2009 at 12:50 pm
I would use the sleeve to store my credit card, license and other important documents. More importantly, it would save me from having to buy a new Blackberry every time I lose a CrackBerry contest and end up throwing my phone!
dawnb75 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:50 pm
I have been waiting for a case like this for a long time! It would help me greatly because it does not interfere with the keys on the front, making it easier to text and such. The slot for cards would be incredibly helpful as well. It eliminates the need to carry around loose cards if you don't want to carry a purse or wallet.
schwincat05 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:50 pm
Any of the contests from last week maybe this time will be better! Would love this case!!
abboder Dec 16, 2009 at 12:51 pm
I live like a baller with tens of dollars so this case would help me carry all my Hamiltons!
Moon11788 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:51 pm
This would deff help me out
spartan905 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:51 pm
this would make swiping my college ID for beer so much easier.
breck81 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:52 pm
I need one. I got too many cards that need a place to live. What better place than in a case that also holds my phone.
peace, b.
deaner1029#CB Dec 16, 2009 at 12:52 pm
i want one pick me
jackiesophie Dec 16, 2009 at 12:52 pm
I'd love one for my Tour.
germster Dec 16, 2009 at 12:53 pm
me.me.me.i need one cuz sadly i am a kluts n drop my phone a lot :P so this could halp plus make it more comfortable in my hand
BabyDee50 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:53 pm
During the week I would keep my Bruin Card in the slot. I ride the bus and use my blackberry while waiting, and on the bus. It would be awesome to keep my pass handy for uninterrupted blackberry goodness.
And on the weekends, a girl only needs her ID, a credit card and her phone to go out with. Screw a purse. My Blackberry goes with every outfit!
Clherry Dec 16, 2009 at 12:53 pm
Looks very useful and convenient
tnmurdock Dec 16, 2009 at 12:53 pm
I sure could use a case like this, I am always dropping my berry with too manyu things in my hands at one time. This would be an awesome way to finally win if not , will try next time. But my blackberry needs a good home
ushneb Dec 16, 2009 at 12:54 pm
This will be perfect for me when I take my Tour with me to Taiwan in the next couple of months.
ojosverde Dec 16, 2009 at 12:54 pm
would work to store drivers license, student idea, credit card! no need for a clutch anymore!
wsd86 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:55 pm
This would be very nice for when we travel for the use as holding a room key. My phone is always on my side with easy access. I currently always keep a room key in my wallet which is a pain to dig through to get out a room key.
GREAT IDEA
robz456 Dec 16, 2009 at 12:56 pm
All I want for Christmas is accessories for my blackberry!!!
undermine Dec 16, 2009 at 12:57 pm
This post is the winner.
raanank Dec 16, 2009 at 12:57 pm
I would put this case to great use. I would use it to a). protect my phone and b). store my university ID which gets me into my building and pays for my meal plan. I am tired of carrying around my wallet just to hold one card- this would be perfect!!
coreyrector Dec 16, 2009 at 12:57 pm
Currently, I don't use a case. But the added function of this one would eliminate a front pocket wallet 90% of the time.
Nwordplzplz Dec 16, 2009 at 12:57 pm
I think I would put my Tops bonus card in the slot. I'm always trying to get that card out of my wallet, and it's annoying as hell haha. I would love to win this.
Slammers08 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:00 pm
Sign me up! Thankyou
robertclyons Dec 16, 2009 at 1:01 pm
let me be a winner
hootenisman Dec 16, 2009 at 1:01 pm
I'd love to use this for my business cards. I already have a pocket wallet and don't have room in my pockets to put a business card holder in there...
Falling Dec 16, 2009 at 1:01 pm
My friend with a tour would like this if I won it
omegastu Dec 16, 2009 at 1:01 pm
and would love a new case!
Gadam Dec 16, 2009 at 1:01 pm
I would love to be able to hand out detentions, to my students, while wowing them with this case. "Where did their detention come from. Magic and my case!". Also, I am a high school math teacher and cannot afford a case.
RwP1138 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:02 pm
if i had this it would free up the pockets on my cargo pants for fresh candy
Chad0455 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:02 pm
needd one bad rite now...CB!
notmeforreal Dec 16, 2009 at 1:03 pm
daddy would use it for work and to spread the word about crackberry
terriblecow Dec 16, 2009 at 1:03 pm
Wow! That has a perfect spot for my Social Security card.I'm so sick of having to root around in my safe for it every time I find a new job.
Pederson Dec 16, 2009 at 1:03 pm
My girlfriend just got a Tour and she's amazingly forgetful, she NEEDS one ha!
1ST-TIME-BB Dec 16, 2009 at 1:03 pm
Would love to win one of these for my wife.
BBLyrik Dec 16, 2009 at 1:04 pm
With all the travel and hotel stays I'd love this case to death... With dining and conferences in the hotel, this would come in handy because I'd have access to EVERYTHING I need...instead of lugging my purse around.. Thanks!!!
Blue_Monkey Dec 16, 2009 at 1:04 pm
I need a place to carry my "Get Out Of Jail Free" card. This new SmrtCase(for my Tour) would be perfect for that!
07thking Dec 16, 2009 at 1:06 pm
This will certainly come in handy for my everyday travels. I have to wait for 9550 version though.
fillossofer Dec 16, 2009 at 1:07 pm
I'll have a nice gift for my best friend!
GrafixInk Dec 16, 2009 at 1:12 pm
hook me up... would love one.
would be nice to not carry a huge wallet around. this would definitely be easier.
jmooo Dec 16, 2009 at 1:10 pm
Wouldn't keeping credit cards and room keys so close to the battery of the phone wipe out the magnetic information on the stripe? This happens to me all the time when I put room keys next to my cell phone. Any thoughts?
P.A.U.L Dec 16, 2009 at 1:10 pm
id like one for my tourrr =D
i use a silicon one and just throw my id / debit card in the back of it . It gets annoying taking the case off every time i need to pay for something. This would make my life a tiny bit easier at the register . Plus testing new products that are useful is always fun. <3
nocaldawg#cb Dec 16, 2009 at 1:10 pm
Hope I win this one. Will this case fit into a Seidio Holster?
aussiemom Dec 16, 2009 at 1:10 pm
I would LOVE one of these! Have been using one of the bulky rubber/silicone cases from Verizon since my Tour was new & I would love to trade it out! Having room for some biz cards a definite plus...
MHarvey124 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:11 pm
Definitely looks cool.
10UHC Dec 16, 2009 at 1:11 pm
Great idea!
6cents Dec 16, 2009 at 1:11 pm
I like the idea of storing swipe cards and picture ID in a case that is protecting my BB Tour. Uh, flamingo pink? I think black or red works better for me! :)
Soco_Jon Dec 16, 2009 at 1:11 pm
just slide my DL in there and maybe a credit card for nights out on the town that way i dont have to carry my wallet around...that is just a SMART idea.
gavreh Dec 16, 2009 at 1:12 pm
Looks like a great case.
bambuco Dec 16, 2009 at 1:12 pm
come'on Kevin M., this would be an AWESOME xmas present!!!
i'm a full time student and work full time for a homebuilder in Florida (amazing huh?). I strongly feel that i've been held on b/c of my ability to multi-task thanks in great part to my trusty 8330 Curve. Problem with school & work is there's a lot of walking involved but needed to be in full office gear and not just the "comfy" college student attire. I have with my a thick ass wallet when in fact i only need a few cards, no cash. Having a SmrtCase would be awesome so i can minimize my pant pockets (since i ALWAYS have my curve with me, ALWAYS) and make the long walk that much better!!!
KillingPigeons Dec 16, 2009 at 1:13 pm
i need a case hmm
uwbadger69 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:13 pm
I want one of these, thanks
calboogi Dec 16, 2009 at 1:13 pm
Want to drop this free holster that came with the phone
dreppucci007 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:14 pm
Please pick me! This would be amazing!
gomez72000 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:15 pm
perfect for going out to bars
_StephenBB81 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:16 pm
I would love one of these free, don't think I would buy it. but free is good
ahocker Dec 16, 2009 at 1:17 pm
Hook it up!!
dvdowns Dec 16, 2009 at 1:17 pm
i'm a college student who, outside of classes, is constantly on my Tour. unfortunately though, we are required to carry around our student ID card everywhere we go. much like the video mentions, i swipe the card to eat, i swipe it once when entering my residence hall and then again when entering my floor. i've lost my card, broken (current condition), and had it stolen. all of these things however...have NEVER (knock on wood) happened to my Tour. i think that if I had a case like that, the same could be said for my ID card!
whyhelloheart Dec 16, 2009 at 1:17 pm
All I EVER do is lose my ID card that allows me to get into my dorm building, buy food, open my room door and basically everything else.
It drives me up the WALL when I cannot find where I put my card and I automatically go into a frenzy trying to find it. I rip apart my entire room to find a tiny card with my picture on it.
Funny because I ALWAYS know where my Tour is and that sucker never, ever leaves my side :)
This case is a necessity for me and my sanity when it comes to my ID card :)
Please send one my way! My brain will thank you! :D :D
tingbat Dec 16, 2009 at 1:17 pm
I just upgraded from the curve to the tour and need a new case. I have my bb with me at all times and being able to store my id and credit cards would really simplify my life. I also am in the cellular business so being able to show customers how another useful feature would really help. Thank you!
chrisjohnson83 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:18 pm
I'd use it for my mastercard gift cards to play online poker!!!
Cobra46 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:19 pm
Might have to get one and see how I like it.
bobudo Dec 16, 2009 at 1:20 pm
I;ll be honest, I'd really put the SmrtCase to work protecting my tour. The free-ness, and the card holder, would just be excellent incidental benefits.
Coffeegal Dec 16, 2009 at 1:21 pm
Just upgraded from a Curve to the Tour, so I need some gear to protect my new toy.
allnamestaken Dec 16, 2009 at 1:21 pm
Most of the time all I carry is my phone, DL, and my debit card so this would be perfect.
RyanMC Dec 16, 2009 at 1:23 pm
Seriously. Sign me up.
4lando Dec 16, 2009 at 1:23 pm
I would love one of these for my Tour, the added compartment for my credit card and whatever more is a plus especially for someone who doesn't like a lot of bulk in their pockets. This would be a great gift for myself!
Huffdaddy1982 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:23 pm
Durning the week I carry my tour in the factory leather case but Friday afternoon I switch to a skin and stuff my drivers license, debit card, and some cash behind the phone. This would offer more protection and a legitimate place for those items.
mlombardi24 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:24 pm
I travel quite a bit for work (about 50 nights a year) and thus I always stay in hotels. When i head to the hotel gym to work out, i usually just bring my Tour with headphones for music and separetly carry my room key. Since my gym shorts don't have pockets I've been know to leave my room key in the gym a time or two, it would be great to store it in my phone case like this so I never leave the key in the gym again (because I know I won't forget my phone).
Tofergstaff Dec 16, 2009 at 1:24 pm
I use my credit card everywhere I go and it would be much easier to just grab it out of my phone, which is much easier to access instead of fumbling to get my wallet then trying to dig it out of all my other plastic. So thats my entry :)
gonzo380 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:25 pm
I would use this on a daily basis because I hate wallets. I currently have a money clip/cardholder combo and sometimes I need more space for my hotel room key, casino player card, and other passes.
jnine1271 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:26 pm
If I had one of those, I would keep my ID in it because every time I go pick up my kids at school I have to show my ID and then I forget to put it back and have to go searching for where I stuck it, and since I NEVER leave home without my Tour, I would always know where it is!
synwars Dec 16, 2009 at 1:26 pm
I hate carrying my wallet PERIOD. I already sport a slim design wallet but I would love nothing more than to carry around ONLY my Tour and a few cards (DL, Debit, Visa).
Thanks for the chance!
Coach101 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:27 pm
could sure you a little protection for my bold 9700
HowBoutDan Dec 16, 2009 at 1:29 pm
It would be used for keeping my Tour safe as well as gloating - in the form of holding it up to people's faces and saying, "WE MUST PROTECT THIS HOUSE!"
marchanda2 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:30 pm
i don't like to always carry a purse with me so being able to slip my id and debit card in with my phone when i go out! lord knows i would never misplace my crackberry so that way i'll never lose my id and debit card either!
pappy53 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:31 pm
This case would be great for business cards.
cu19 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:32 pm
What a great idea, I always take my BB with me and now I will have my cards with me at all times. Going into the VFW I just pull out the Tour, slip out my membership card and swipe it and I am in.
Merry Christmas !!
BB Gooch Dec 16, 2009 at 1:33 pm
i want to be smart and protect my precious lol
hucworld Dec 16, 2009 at 1:34 pm
Having the Sprint version of this device(Tour) I need this case. My poor phone drops more than a strippers thong when a club full of athletes are in the house. Luckily there are no bruises or scrapes on the phone...YET! I am eagerly awaiting the Essex but in the meantime, help me and my Tour. Come on do it for the Tour...you know you want to! (insert sad/pouting face)
Username5300 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:34 pm
I want to be a winner
coolguy78240 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:34 pm
its about time for me to win something? especially around christmas?
the_stig#WN Dec 16, 2009 at 1:35 pm
I would put extra Micro sd cards in it, and my checkcard. Awesome.
ekz13 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:35 pm
This would be perfect for holding my Military ID as well as several keycards that I have to access parts of the building I work in. Stellar design & another great contest
Sayersj629 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:36 pm
I was just thinking the other day that it would be useful if my phone case could hold my debit card or a little bit of cash.
jeditribe Dec 16, 2009 at 1:36 pm
Comment.
mqguitar Dec 16, 2009 at 1:36 pm
I will use it a lot to keep the bulk down of my wallet, and not reach for it cuz im so lazy. lol and this will help protect my whited out tor when the housing comes in :)
hoenemeyerj Dec 16, 2009 at 1:43 pm
I will be skiing later this month in Colorado, and I need a case that protects my BB from accidental nicks and bumps while it rests in my jacket's pocket. Please, CrackBerry, help me keep my new BB safe from the elements!
leoleon3 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:39 pm
i could really use this.
momhasthree Dec 16, 2009 at 1:39 pm
That is a nifty idea!! Great place to store my work ID which also works as a key! Never know where the ID is, but I always have my phone!!! :)
dpcsurfer Dec 16, 2009 at 1:39 pm
I hate carrying a wallet (it never has any cash!) If I could have my phone, a credit card, and Driver's license... That would be all I need!
imrans Dec 16, 2009 at 1:40 pm
yay pick me =)
fjfisher601#AC Dec 16, 2009 at 1:40 pm
Sounds Great
blueheaven427 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:40 pm
This would be a great xmas present. I would love to win this. Thank you.
DS_NMG Dec 16, 2009 at 1:41 pm
...for my tour!!
bboutdrsmn Dec 16, 2009 at 1:42 pm
well as i hunt and fish alot because im 42 and medicaly retired my bb never leaves my side so i could use this to protect my BABY BB
TheSultan Dec 16, 2009 at 1:42 pm
This would be perfect for my Tour while at work!
sarahnarizona Dec 16, 2009 at 1:42 pm
The tour is my second blackberry and 4th smart phone. I love it! I have never found a case that I ever wanted to put on my phone untill now. I gamble alot and always have my ID and creditcard in my back pocket I am so afraid that my ID will slip from my pocket when I pull out my phone. This would be fantastic!
innerreflection Dec 16, 2009 at 1:43 pm
first time i have seen this and this is ideal for using a badge for work.
this is great no more searching in your wallet and fumbling around.
thanks and yes please :-)
mutleysmom Dec 16, 2009 at 1:44 pm
that would be great for my brand new Tour!!! please santa, I ahve been so good
snype09 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:44 pm
I would like on of these for my tour. I travel a lot and think it would be great to have my CC and/or ID readily available at the airport and where ever else. Then I could leave my wallet locked away in my carry on
Raistlin1 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:44 pm
Brilliant idea, I use a front pocket wallet because I don't want to be like Costanza on Seinfeld with his brick sized wallet. With this I could get rid of my wallet and just carry my bankroll...
cgirtman Dec 16, 2009 at 1:46 pm
Merry Christmas
joeygoggles Dec 16, 2009 at 1:47 pm
I sometimes forget my wallet, but I never forget my Blackberry. This case is the solution to my problems.
ilhe1s Dec 16, 2009 at 1:48 pm
I would love to have this for my work security card.
gadzooks64#CB Dec 16, 2009 at 1:48 pm
I'd slip in my driver's license and credit card and leave the purse at home!
fishhuh Dec 16, 2009 at 1:49 pm
would love to have this for xmas
wylie8604 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:56 pm
Any case, ESPECIALLY this one would be handy, whether it's my Daughter attempting to assassinate my phone or carrying way too much stuff in public(I look like I'm in a military action movie with how large my pockets are with my wallet/checkbook/phone/etc.). This season definitely demands an ultra portable case such as this, that of which will be put to quite a few good uses. And to be honest as my wife just put it: "That's the one thing I know you won't lose." I'm addicted, what can I say?
imontoya Dec 16, 2009 at 1:50 pm
I would like a case
torigrace2010 Dec 16, 2009 at 1:50 pm
I would store my lunch card in it. That would also make it easier to keep up with as I have lost 2 already.
