Vaja Cases for the 5G - a warning!!!

These cases are beautiful (& expensive) but I am extremely disappointed that when I put my pristine new SCRATCH-FREE 5G ipod in my new Vaja case, the case caused very bad surface scratches all down one edge and across the middle of the iPod front.
The Vaja case claims to have a soft leather lining - it may do - but despite this, it still scratches the iPod (partly because the fit is very tight). When you pay a fortune for a case to protect the iPod from scratching, the last thing you expect is to have the case actually CAUSE the scratching.
The case also traps a lot of dust particles and small hairs between the screen and the screen protector, which you can't get rid of without removing the iPod from the case and making the scratching worse.
Guess who WON'T be making my next case!
Nigel

THANK YOU! I was so close to buying one of those off the site. You have saved me the 70$ to actually get more scratches. Good timing there.

  • Vaja case for i4

    I ordered an i4 case by Vaja last Friday and got two emails confirming the order. However, the charge has not shown up on my credit card. By contrast, the charge for my iPad showed up almost immediately.
    Anyone place an order with Vaja for the i4 that knows how this is working now? I don't want to call their phone number because when I did that for the iPad my order was stopped until I resolved the order by email.

    I've owned four Vaja cases over the years, and the leather craftsmanship is lovely, but my last, the nano classic case with "metal hook", has turned me off Vaja for life. I had a problem with the clip, a permanently attached, $5 add-on, which nearly caused the destruction of my iPod nano when it let go during its first use, and they totally blew me off. I paid nearly $70 including shipping, have bought four products from them over the past few years (at as much as $140+ a pop) and they told me in the most polite possible manner to screw myself.
    Since they're in Argentina, one lacks options as a consumer and I'm spitting mad over it - aside from warning people that you're screwed if you have a problem with your expensive Vaja case. Lousy customer service is one of my biggest pet peeves. Caveat Emptor.

  • Looking for a decent high quality case for the Omni10 Omni 10

    For anyone looking for the best case for the Omni 10 then this fits perfectly and is the best match for this tablet currently
    http://targus.com/uk/product_details.asp?sku=THZ200EU
    In the UK, where I live, it is available from John Lewis

    It appears that the Targus case has a cutout that would allow you to charge the device with the cover closed. The HP case doesn't allow for that.
    I wrote a review here on the HP case. I wouldn't recommend it. I should also note that the HP store personnel chose not to make my review public...seems there's some selective editing going on there which means I will never trust any reviews on that site.
    You can search here for my whole review, but basically the HP case has a couple of problems.
    1. It's very heavy for a case.
    2. The holes don't line up particularly well with things like the camera (no matter how many times you adjust the tablet and tighten loosent the velcro closure.
    3. The aforementioned charging issue.
    4. You can't have any cables plugged into the device while in Stand mode (probably also an issue with the Targus).

  • Looking for a leather case for the ipod Touch 4G

    Hello everyone,
    I'm looking for a real *GENUINE LEATHER* case for the iPod Touch 4G, preferably one that has a belt clip.
    I just wasted $34 on the new Belkin "genuine leather case with belt clip" only to find out it smelled like rubber and felt nothing like what real leather would feel/smell like. Totally disappointed in Belkin advertising their cases as genuine leather when in fact they are made of cheap synthetic leather.

    You can right click your video file, go to "Get Info", and select the Video tab and change the file type to Movie, TV Show, or Music Video, and then once that video is synced to the iPod it will be sorted into the proper location.
    You can also create playlists of your video content. That would be the easiest/best way to get your genre classification system going.

  • HT3255 Do the cases for the Macbook 13.3' air 2011 model fit the Macbook 13.3' air 2008 model?

    I recently purchased a MacBook Air 13.3' late 2008 model. I am looking for a case. Do the cases for the 2011 still fit the 2008 model?

    Generally speaking yes, but check the manufacturer's website to be sure.

  • Hard case for the air?

    Hi all,
    I've ordered an entry level 13 inch macbook air with 4gb ram today. However, I've been trying to find a hard case for my new air for the last couple of hrs without any success.
    Can somebody please suggest to me some cases with a soft inner lining and hard outer shell? Or a hard shell case for the air?
    Thanks

    Hi David,
    Thanks for the suggestion. The Pelican case looks really good, but it’s a bit heavy when combined with the air. The total weight will be the same as my old 15” macbook pro, which defeat the point of me getting the air as a light weight laptop.
    I did found couple of interesting cases from a company called Cumpler.
    Hard Suit 13" Air:

    Hard Suit Special Edition 13" Air:

    They have a store in central London, so I’ll go and have a look this week.
    Hi n_n,
    I had an Incase hard shell on my macbook pro, and there were few cracks on the corners of the case after few months of use. So I want either a clip on hard shell or a carry case with hard top; bottom and edge protection for the air without adding too much weight.

  • Can you buy a slide out keyboard case for the six plus? Like you can for the 6.

    can you buy a slide out keyboard case for the 6 plus?

    There are 2 separate issues here:
    - The Apple 30 pin to USB cable was redesigned to remove the 2 button squeeze feature pricesley because of your issue with the buttons falling off and consumers being unable to disconnect the cords.  The newly redesigned cable removes these 2 side buttons for a shorter 30 pin connector that will work just fine in Apple devices.  If there is an ergonomic reason for wanting the larger 2 button design you can buy a host of 3rd party Apple 30 pin to USB cables on the market.  http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA591G/C/apple-30-pin-to-usb-cable?fnode=3a
    http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Meter-Charging-Cable-iPhone/dp/B004SBBD8U/ref =sr_1_5?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1370983635&sr=1-5&keywords=30+pin+apple+usb - 3rd party Apple 30 pin USB cable that should replace the functionality you are looking for.
    - The issue of your iPad reporting that it isn't charging is a DIFFERENT issue.  Your USB cable is FINE.  The reason you are getting this message is beacuse the Power Adaptor that the USB cable plugs into isn't providing enough electrical juice.  If you are plugging your USB cable into your PC it might not be getting enough power.  If you are plugging it into your iPhone Power Adaptor (5W) it isn't strong enough to charge your iPad with it on (it will trickle charge if you have your iPad off).  What you need is the Apple 12W charger for iPad.  Your original power adapter that came with you iPad 2 was a 10W charger that Apple no longer sells.  Make sure the USB cable you are using it plugged into either a 10W or 12W power adapter!  http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_ipad/ipad_accessories/power
    Tech speak if interested: the 12W charger uses the USB cable to detect which iPad is connected and gives it 1 AMP for iPhone, 2.1 AMP for iPad 1,2 & Mini and 2.4 AMP for iPad 3&4.

  • Nokia's premium leather case for the Lumia 1020

    Has anyone seen any additional information about what has been referred to as "Nokia’s premium leather case for the Lumia 1020" on some sites?
    Nokia’s premium leather case for the Lumia 1020
    This looks like the perfect case for the Lumia 1020 and is one of the few that offers protection for the camera lens.
    Is it going to be sold by Nokia? And when is it coming out?

    Actually, the page mentions that link as a source for a different case not pictured.
    "...we did find another company, Noreve.com, who also have a leather case in the process of being made for the 1020."
    So whatever case Noreve.com decides to make, it won't be the one pictured in the article.
    And looking at the other cases that Noreve has designed, I don't think theirs will look anything like the Nokia-branded one that is pictured.
    Any leads would be appreciated.

    Is there a protective travel case for the iPad2 that will cover the smart cover as well?

    There are a variety of well-made sleeves from SF Bags which will accommodate the Smart Cover. I'm partial to the neoprene bags and sleeves from Bult NY and I use this "hoodie" netbook sleeve (in black) for extra protection when I'm traveling or in the field because it has a rigid shell to protect the back and sides:

  • Can I use the iPhone 5s case for the iPhone 5?

    Can I use the iPhone 5s case for the iPhone 5?

    Do cases made for iPhone 5 also work with iPhone 5s?
    While iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s have the same shape and size, the camera and LED flash are different. So cases made for iPhone 5 may affect the camera operation on iPhone 5s, and vice versa. When shopping for cases, you should choose one specifically made for the iPhone model you own.
