but it's just a holster for $55. No front protection. Not what I'd call a case.
Weak showing from Vaja on this one. Really, really disappointed.

10-4 on that. I would have expect a more protective case. I guess we might need to wait a bit longer for Vaja for some good cases..
I really, really hope it comes soon.
My Touch has seriously gotten little to no use solely because I don't have anything to protect it.
=\
The other thing that has bothered me a bit is the fact that Vaja's customer service department doesn't seem to care to reply to email inquiries.
It would just be really, really nice to have any indication as to whether this is going to be it for a while, or if something closer to their line of iPhone cases will be available soon.
I really like the i-volution tap holster for the iPhone - would love to get one for the touch.

On another thread, someone pointed out the Piel Frama case. Looks good, but at a steep price.

It looked OK, but it didn't appear to be as form fitting as the Vaja cases - and yeah, for approximately $120 USD, I'll pass for the time being.
If I'm going to spend that much, I'd at least prefer it be with a company I like.

60 Eur = about $84. Not cheap, but not double either.

Well only just introduced to Vaja today, and there iPhone cases are the Shiznay Lol ! But the iTouch case, well tbh it looks like a holster isnt to impressive hopefully they will bring out something new soon.
I've emailed them 3 times in the last 3 weeks (all very polite/professional) and have yet to get even one response back from them.
:(

I"m starting to sound like a shill (which I'm not), but people: really, consider the Fortte leather cases. They're good quality and about a quarter the price of the typical Vaja.

I did take a look at them (and Piel Frama), and think I like Piel Frama better. For some reason I just really, really didn't like the looks of the Fortte cases (which I know is a pitiful reason not to purchase one), and honestly I feel like if I purchase anything now, Vaja will put up the exact case I want the next day and I'll be completely ####ed off.

I like the PF cases better, too, but I'm not sure they're worth the 3x difference in price.

Well, this is what I've found for Piel Frama at a slightly more reasonable price:

Looks a bit risky to me. It's not a custom case and shouldn't take 3 weeks. Price seems too low to me.

Yeah, haven't ordered it or anything yet - sent a message to the seller, waiting to hear back, but I'm obviously skeptical.
But in their defense, it doesn't say it necessarily will take 3 weeks, just that if they don't have the one you want in stock, it could take up to that long.
Either way, we'll see if they even respond.
