FWIW I emailed Otterbox and they said the Desire HD case would not fit the Inspire.
could be a marketing ploy to prevent people from reusing cases and/or allowing them to up the price on brand new Inspire cases.
I totally agree, it has to be the marketing department.
From what it looks like the 2 devices actually have different physical dimensions. So it may be likely that the Desire cases they won't fit correctly.
You ordered it? I will need to know what your thoughts are ASAP. This is the case I am looking for when I get the phone, and would like a first hand review.
From what I gather, it's one of those in between cases... Not a hard case, but not a soft case... let me know man!
Got my Inspire today. Decided to ditch a case and just go with a Zagg screen protector. Best Buy mobile only had the Platinum case that Shempster mentioned and one purple silicone case. ATT had no cases.
The thing is still working correctly without the Platinum case on it. I don't understand this. The thing is almost solid metal. How could a plastic case affect it like this? Shame, as I like the case...

I didn't find it on Amazon specific to the Inspire 4G?Thank you, very much duder! Just ordered off of Amazon.
I'm still checking this out but I noticed not long after putting the Platinum case I bought from BB on my Inspire Friday the phone started not switching from portrait to landscape mode when rotated. The only way to get it to do it was a complete power down. On power up it works right for a while & then stops rotating as it should.
I took the case off this morning & its been rotating correctly since. The case is very tight on the phone.
Anybody ever heard of this before? I'm new to this smartphone thing...
Will keep looking at this.

I ordered this so we'll see how it fits.
