Cases for Blackberry Bold 9700

[feo]

Any idea where's the best place to get cases for a Blackberry 9700?

I was looking at the OtterBox Commuter case and also the stock case made by BB themselves. Also, do all cases come with a screen protector?

I use the Capdase Soft Jacket Xpose case on my 9700, its a nice clear rubber like case. It fits the phone really well and also comes with a screen protector. What I like about it is the fact that the phone will still fit in the BlackBerry Pouch (just for that extra bit of protection), I got mine from the local Vodashop shop.

friend of mine just got a really nice iPlay (I think?) cover for his 9700 from Cellucity in Cape Town

I'm in Gauteng and don't think I've seen any Cellucitys around.

I was checking out Xpansys and they have the Otterbox range but it says that you gotta wait 10 days! No way..

So Vodashop is one option, where else can I look?

And the screen protector, do you just stick it onto the screen?

The screen protector works like any other screen protector so yes it just sticks on, always make sure that the screen is as clean as you can get it otherwise you will get dust particles between the screen and screen protector (I have found that a microfiber cloth does the best job at cleaning the screen before applying the screen protector)

You can buy cheap generic screen protectors, cut them and stick them on, it's not a touchscreen so it doesn't make a difference. I recommend the RIM silicone cases, I have one on my Bold, they're the most flexible. Most Vodashops and MTN service centres should have them.
