    I just got my case today and WOW!!!!!!!! This is by far the best case I have ever bought. It actually fits. The leather is rich and soft. I would say spend the little extra and get the Vitelino leather. I chose the ultra clip and it does stick out some but no more than the cheap cases. For those of you who look at the price tag, ask yourself "how much have I spent on cases that didn't work?" I'll bet it adds up to more than this case. The only real thing with this case I do not like is the soft plastic screen, it gives the warped feeling and some dust gets under it. All in all take the leap and treat yourself. You won't be disappointed

    I am curious to know how the aniline leather has held up. I want to order a case for my PDA but I am worried it will easily stain or scratch because it is so soft...any thoughts?

    I have NOT had a positive experience with this case.

    Despite only storing the case in a pants pocket, or lined backpack pocket, the built-in screen protector got incredibly scratched after only 2 weeks of use. It is so bad that I have difficulty reading parts of the E61 screen through it.

    When I wrote to Vaja customer care with my concerns, they replied that any scratches were my own fault, and not the result of any production flaw.

    They did not offer to fix the case until several emails were exchanged.

    Even then, Vaja made it clear that I would be responsible for any postage expenses (internationally since I am based in Europe), and that they would have to inspect the case in person before deciding whether my request had any merit.

    I have previously purchased two cases from Vaja for my older Sony Clie and T610 mobile phone. After this latest experience with an E61 case, and the extremely unhelpful and rude customer care, I will never purchase from them ever again.

    Buyer beware!!!

    Mine has lasted me ages. It just fell apart the other day, so I am looking to get a new one. Any ideas where I should look?

    Bought iphone case only to find that it scuffed badly within minutes just by sitting in my pocket. Futile email exchanges with Vaja led nowhere. They were rude, unhelpful and uncommunicative. This product is TERRIBLE. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SHYSTER COMPANY.
