Emailed them last night to see if they had any cases available and if not, any idea when they would be. Response below:

Dear Mobli,

Thank you very much for contacting us and for your interest in our products.

Regarding your question, we are sorry to inform you that we do not have any case for the new XDA Orbit II. At the moment, we are really busy with the new models of PDA and Smartphone cases which we are launching to the market so that we do not have any plans to make a specific case for this device.

We are sorry for not being able to attend your requirement about it.

According to the dimensions of your device, the only cases which could fit your device would be one of the cases in the following link from our website:

Universal Treo cases for Palm Treo 750v

We are sure that you will appreciate the quality of these leather cases if you decide to buy one of them.

Do not hesitate to contact us if you need further assistance.

Best wishes,

That is a shame, not very keen on the cases offered to fit your device though they look rather like ladies purses!

I cancelled the order i had for their Touch Cruise case, but if they have said they have no plans for a pukka Orbit 2 case, then i might get a Touch Cruise case, as i think it will be a better fit than anything else. At the moment i am using my Orbit 1 case

As a matter of interest, how does your 'old' case fit with the Orbit 2?

Size wise it fits pretty well, just a few millimetres taller, Depth is about the same overall and its the same width. Its a good, sliding fit, doesnt look "wrong" and the screen is all visible

I have had to use a leather punch tool to make a small hole for the microphone and a larger one for the speaker, but that all the mods needed. I have to take it out of the case to use camera functions, but power and volume are easily accesible with the case on and the Orbit 2 front buttons are accesible and look ok in the existing cut-out..

Overall i am quite pleased with it and am now happy to wait for a decent, proper case to appear from PF or similar.

Any chance of some pics of your Orbit II in it's case?

Hopefully, there should be 3 pics linked to this post. (the left edge of the case, next to the screen has frayed a bit over time, in case you were wondering why it looks wobbly)

I've been doing the same with my old PF Orbit case too.

Orbit 2 fits nicely if a little long but the screen cover flap fits and closes at the back still....
