The 9500 from Vodafone came with the pouch.

I hope the VZW will come with the belt clip holster.

I doubt it. VZ hasn't included anything with BBs but the pouch for quite awhile now.

would you say that the pouch is the same size as the Curve's leather pouch? If so then anyone would just be able to use the belt clip pouches that fit the Curve.

It appears that the Storm would compare more in size with the 8830. Here's a comparison link.

The Storm is slightly loose in my 8830 pouch but fits nicely in the Curve pouch. I'll be returning the pouch I bought for the Storm.

The Storm holster is pretty cool but doesn't have the stand-by feature. The Curve pouch puts the Storm to sleep nicely.

My Speck Holster Pro for the Curve fits the Storm nicely. It's just a little tight with "screen out", but just right with "screen in".

You can find it on the speckproducts website.

I am pretty sure the Storm holster has the stand-by feature...

Seidio plans to release the spring clip holster for Blackberry Storm this week ! This holster is molded specifically for Storm.

I currently use the 8830 for my Curve and yeah its a little loose, but its fine, the magnet holds it well and it puts it to sleep. I have an extra one from the last phone exchange so i will just use that.

Not sure when I can get up to get the Storm, but I am not sure after reading all of this stuff about it being so glitchy. Thoughts?

Not sure how many of you have used Seidio products before, but you can't go wrong. I have had their Innocase and spring clip holster for nearly a year now on my Pearl, and they have both held up incredibly well. The belt clip isn't even beginning to show any tension loss, nor did it start spinning around from being worn out after a month or so like some that I've had in the past. I've also dropped mine several times, as my job can be quite rigorous at times. The case has popped apart a couple of times on very hard impacts, but I don't have a single scratch on my phone thanks to it. I just snapped it right back on and got back to business. I'm lined up for a Storm, and I will be getting the Innocase and clip for it just as soon as it is available. If you want great protection for your phone and functionality, Seidio is the way to go.

I will be returning the holster I got with mine today. Every time I put it in the holster it hits the side button and either music starts to play or the built-in video trailer. It also just broke my green send key off this morning. I will be returning the phone today to see what they will do. So far I'm not too impressed with anything on this phone. I will definitely get another holster that isn't so tight.

I'm using my 8830 holster for the storm. It feels like it was made for it.

I heard that the pouch was pulling the send button right off the device. I believe it is too tight and the tag inside the pouch was getting "wrapper around" the send button, thus ripping it off, the button not the tag, when you take the phone out of the pouch. That is for the pouch that came with the Vodafone storms. I am sure the curve pouch is even tighter.

I cut a notch on the upper left side of the pouch that came with my 8320 so I could keep it in the pouch while it charged. It seemed to make it less snug as well, although not so much that the phone fell out of the pouch.

Verizon's storm does not come with any pouch. Right now, I am just using a silicone cover. I also bought a pouch with it, but it is too tight and does press buttons when it goes in and out of the pouch. It also tends to peel off the screen protectors.

I am excited about the Seido products coming out this week. I will definitely use that.

I agree I have had excellent luck with Seido and I am awaiting their Storm holster release.

I bought the pouch with belt clip from verizon when i got the fone, it has a BB logog on it so im assuming its the BB OEM holster, a little bigger than the one for my curve, but it is full leather for ebtter protection.

Does anyone know if it has the "sleep" magnets in it?
