Hi guys, I used to have the krussell case for my p900 until I stopped using it for its inconvenience but this bellagio one seems really nice except for maybe that its still missing a hook towards the bottom where it could clip in so it doesn't fall off (like the krusell one) anyways I wanted to know if anyone of you have it or tried it to see if its as nice as the krussell one or as good as the piel parma one.
Heres the link:

I got the bellagio case, it's the best case so far for me. I got the Russel too, took one look at it when it arrived in the mail and never used it. With the Bellagio it's a very good fit, still give you the P900 shape(the Krussel make it look like a big box). The stylus is very easy to remove and you can use sync station while still in the case. |

Is the clip slim or "fat"? The Martin Fields version has a very thick clip mechanism.

The clip is slim for a phone this size, also the "button" on the case is stainless steel not plastic. I'll tried and post some pictures later. |

Here are some pictures, sorry it took so long, had to track down my camera from a friend who loan it to a friend (know what I mean).
Can be use on sync. station
Stainless steel button
Don't get Krussell case, to bulky.
Also on Krussell it's hard to get stylus out.

Is the screen covered by some plastic or is bare when in the case. If covered, how is touch screen affected? Also, does this help / alleviate the cracking of case on the edges where the flip touches the case?

The Bellagio case does not cover the screen at all, the Krussell does cover the screen, that's why I don't like the Krussell. As for strenght on the flip cover, I don't know. Mine seems to be well intact so maybe it does help. |

Having just made my first foray into the Symbian market. I am looking at cases for my p910. For my old PDA I owned a Vaja case. Points for buying it were complete protection of my investment but could still synch and all functional areas of the PDA were exposed when the lit was unhinged.
I can see that the Bellagio is great and small in form factor. Love the way it gives the ability to keep the flip attached which is functional. But the one thing that potentially worries me is the exposed top corners if you dropped the phone.
Any comments?

Your observation is correct, the P900 seems a little top heavy so whenever dropped it land on the top. My P900 is in pretty good conditions except for the two top corners.
I also looked at the Piel Frama, I decided on the Bellagio because when a call comes in, I can just answer without flipping open the the front cover. |
