Agreed. The ICT-13 is no good. I got one to try but having previously lost a Motorola STARTAC using their holster I could see this was as insecure and would definitly come off when I was not expecting it!

I also agree, but i still have one.

The phone just comes of when you least expect it.

I use one old case which was originally made for T10s and T18s. But it suits very good for T68i and also for T65 (even for T39m).

It hold my T68i tight and even it does not have any closure, I can ride bike with my T68i or climb on tree or - I guess - even visit safely Beijing subway station

PS. To make it more comfortable for my T68i I stuck soft velvet inside that case.

How to recognize that case? On the front side it has small metal label "Ericsson". Very nice and stylish.

I also use an ICT-13 and I know about the clip's weak point. That's why I keep the holster attached to the beltclip all day only while I'm at the office. But whenever I go to a busy place, say the mall, the subway, or on my way home, I take it off from the beltclip and put it my pocket.

Also, whenever I need to walk past a narrow space (office premises with tables and desks, etc.), I hold the phone making sure that it won't get hit by any obstruction causing it to fall off the clip.

I'm sorry for losing your phone, tsing221. Just shows that we really need to be extra careful with the ICT-13. Overall, the holster's great. We'll just have to live with this small flaw.

I think its the skillfulness of the China pickpockets, nothing to do with SE accessories. I lost my phone at ShenZhen too 4 years ago. They are too good, the pickpockets.

@* it's perfect! all u need is a pair of plyers and a lot of patience.
use a pointed object like the tip of a sign/ballpoint pen. then pullout the resistance spring. adjust it (use your common/McGyver sense)

after a minute or two, it was perfect,though it will be kinda tight to pull out your T68i

Want another reason not to use the ICT-13? Look at the damage done by the case to my phone: http://www.pbase.com/empty/damage

This happend while removing it to change a sim card.
