I've held off buying one because I didn't like any of the cheapo ones I've seen in stores. Ideally, I'd love to get a hard case but it doesn't seem like RIM wants to make one.
Do you (or would you) feel nervous about throwing your Pearl in your bag without a case?
After dropping my pearl phone a couple of times, I realized I needed to have a case! I did a google search, found and bought a great lambskin case at Gadgetcase.ca Sweet!
