any chance to also include cases that come with or fit a holster...and fit in the docks?

While a case is nice I've been partial to holsters.

Thanks

According to the Incipio Website, they're carried by Verizon stores, Target, Kohl's, Office Depot, Staples and Radio Shack. Not sure if they have the Feather - my local Verizon store only had the Silicrylic. Try here Store Locator

I just received the Seidio Surface for the Bionic. LOVE the case so far (does seem a little bit thicker then the one I had on my BlackBerry 9630).

It will fit in the Car Dock with the insert removed. HOWEVER- it will not charge. It looks like the USB port fits inside somewhat, but not enough to connect and charge. UGH! It is so close too, just not sure what I can do to fix it.

Any ideas? If the stupid USB port was just a little bit higher, then it would work perfectly.

If it's that close. Identify where the case is touching the dock, and dremel out the dock a little bit to make it fit.

That is a good idea. The Car Dock has a small hump that could be taken down some. Thanks for the idea! I will try it out sometime and let everyone know how it works.

Seeing as it doesn't charge in the case, I can't add it to the list as charging is key to claiming it "fits" for the purpose of this thread. By any chance have you tried it in a standard dock? Probably the same result, but just curious. If you do find an easy fix, please post back here and I may add it to the list.

Got the TPU case.

I received my TPU case a couple of days ago and am very happy with it. It actually fits both the home dock and the car dock BETTER than the Bionic with no cover. I say it fits better because it seems to line up easier and sets on the USB plug easier than it did with no cover.

I like the looks and feel of the Bionic better with no cover, but this cover is pretty unobtrusive and does offer a little protection. The one odd thing about this cover is that it covers the volume rocker, but it has molded pads that line up perfectly and is just as easy to use as uncovered. I actually like that feature as it keeps the dust out. The case is just the perfect texture for me. I keep my phone in a dedicated side pocket in carpenter jeans and sometimes the phone would slip out when reclining in a chair or laying on the couch. That is no longer the case with the TPU case on. It adds a little bulk and a little more friction that really helps keep it in the pocket, yet is still very easy to remove.

For eight bucks it seems like a really nice case. Fit and finish were excellent. It is a keeper for me.

Did you use the link from this thread? That apparently links to one seller on amazon who sells TPU cases and verified in the product description that they fit the docs. There are several other sellers who sell TPU cases and I am wondering if they all are the same mold and will all fit the docs. (I want different color options).
