I JUST RECIEVED THIS E-mail from
hlequippe@veritas.com .......some good advice
Be careful with the ICT13 belt holder, I lost my T68 because of it. It doesn't
hold very well to the Belt. the phone hold very well to the holder, but the
holder tens to skid upward and you lose your phone.
I'm positive I have been there
So now I'm waiting for T68i

i had the same problem, and now i use the official T65 case with my T68. It protects the phone more than ICT13 and it cannot be removed from the belt. try it |

I've managed to drop my phone a couple of times.
Twice without casing, and like ten times with casing.
Nothing serious has happened though, just a very tiny bit on the lower left edge on the grey side has been knocked off.
Very droppable phone I'd say!  |

Like one of the previous posters, i would go for the T65 holster, the ICT 14, no way the phone is dropping from that

yeah, i hate to admit it. although the ict-13 looks good, whenever i try to get into the car, it kinda gets smashed and drops and all that crap
i'm gonna use the ict-14 or something
this is dangerous,

What?!  But I just got one today! [gasp]
I was checking the holster and it seems that it does a good job of securing the phone against the belt clip. Even tried taking off the holster from the belt clip with force but to no avail.
Let me get this cleared:
1. The phone will only fall off the belt clip if one is not careful enough to check if the holster is *really* attached to the belt clip. Without the clips properly holding the holster, it will definitely fall once your hand releases the holster. (?)
2. The holster and the clip are sturdy together. It's the belt clip that slides up the belt so one will surely lose the phone. (?)
So by doing the following, one is assured that he/she won't lose his/her phone:
1. Making sure that the holster is properly placed between the clip. Checking again if it really is fixed. (?)
2. Make sure that the clip is not sliding from the belt, say, by securing it using a wire, string or something. This way, the belt clip won't come off the belt. (?)
3. Constantly checking if the phone is still in your belt. (?)
Do you agree guys?
