Desperate for a nice side loading belt case for this phone: Found

[Tyndall]

Seriously. I can't believe the lack of custom fitted cases for such a fantastic phone. I've tried a few Infuse cases, but the problem invariably becomes that although the phone physically fits in the case, the power button placement on the Epic 4G Touch is problematic. I've almost reset my phone a time or two due to the flap, when closed, being too snug.

Anyone have any suggestions for side-loading belt-clipped cases that they have actually used and found success with?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions......

UPDATE: OK, I found a keeper.....was wandering through my local Staples and found this:

Milante Black Lucca Case for MB810 DROID X ThunderBolt

This works great because it is wide enough such that the top flap is not directly pressing on the power button.

I paid under 20 bucks at Staples, and obviously is cheaper online.

I got this one, it's very reminiscent of the blackberry belt clips. I love it.

Thanks very much for the heads up....I was holding out for a soft\pouch side loading case.

Get the Verizon branded Droid X leather holster! It fits the phone PERFECT, even with using either a hard shell case or TPU case. I have been using this case since my original EVO 4G, and with my EVO 3D. I wouldn't use another case...

Wearing this one right now - pretty good quality and has belt loops in addition to the clip in case you just really need to be sure this isn't coming off of your belt... however the clip is pretty strong on it so I never use the loops.
Oh I have my TPU case on the phone and it fits *absolutely* perfectly - you'll have a bit of wiggle room if you don't have one of those on your phone.

Oh one last thing... for the first few days I had to be extra sure to close the case because the case "hinge" (for lack of a better term) hadn't softened up yet so it didn't get caught by the magnet on its own - that's resolved itself now. Just thought I'd point it out because that was the only negative I had with this case and it was gone after a week - so if you get one and that annoys you too just give it a lil bit to losen up.

I've been considering getting this case because of the kickstand, but one reviewer says that the images are misleading and that the case doesn't have a kickstand...can you confirm?

For now, I'll keep using my TPU case which is awesome except for the lack of a kickstand.
