Just saw a new case/holster ICT-14 for the T-65 and R-600,..looks very neat 
And I guess it would probably work with the T-68 as well.
Take a look :

Thanks jh67
The ICT-14 should work for the T68 ..
T68 size 100x48x20
T65 size 105x49x21
It looks a lot better than the ICT-13, too high a chance to scratch the phone using than one. Apart from the fact it looks damn ugly.
Gonna go for the ICT-14 myself ... if only I could find the damn thing  |

I think the two holsters aren't as great looking as the T65/68 phones they are made for - I think a good case should compliment the phone it is carrying (I have a T65) - Im using a neat little leather case made for Nokia 8210/8250 size phones - It has a nice metal NOKIA logo on it and it fits sideways on my belt or on a backpack strap - I think Erricsson should make a few cases for different types of users it would be great if we had a Erricsson leather case with a nice see through front so we could make calls without removing the phone from the case.

Carphone Warehouse in the UK are now marketing a 'standard' leather case for the T68. Its made by a company called Kondor who manufacture 90% of the cheap leather cases for all phones.
It has a see through cover and a small cut out for the joystick together with a belt clip on the back, although unfortunately this is fixed as opposed adjustable. Still not bad value for £4-99 ukpds. Must agree though, E/// should be manufacturing their own high quality branded leather case.

Another quite good looking case, is the Chairmans Case T-65/68, in leather.
From Expansys.com.
But yes,  should make more different cases for their own phones.

Hi Jan,
Agree re the Chairmans case, got one of those as well (everybody has a fetish...mine is cases) just a pain having to take it out when I haven't got the headset with me, plus its very bulky. E/// case for the T39 also fits, just a bit tight and requires a bit of stretching.

Dave : the problem with many of the cases are exactly that they are bulky. Of course its the leather strap on the backside, that is the main problem.
I mainly have the phone in my coat,..and these leather-cases are just to big !
I tried out the leather-case for the T-39 too,..it is a bit to small actually. You really gotta push it
I'm certaintly gonna have a look at the T-65 case,..looks smaller, slim design.

Yep agreed re size Jan. T65 case does look nice, but still the problem (if it is a problem) of having to take it out.
Had a play with the ict-13 the other day, now that is a strange beast If I wasn't so paranoid about my gorgeous screen getting scratched I'd try one.
All the best

I'm using the ICT-13 with a screen protector of sorts. If you take the factory plastic that came on the screen as a template and cut a "fellows WriteRight" screen protector (like for a Palm or whatnot) there you have a custom screen protector. You still need to be cautious of weather and such, but the screen won't get scratched up. When the protector gets too scratched, peel it off and put a new one on. Sure would be nice if Ericsson would sell the plastic protectors that come with the phone.
