Proporta N95 8GB alu-crystal case deal

[admin]

I just wanted to let everyone know that Proporta is offering all N95Users.com users an another amazing deal on their new Alu-Crystal case for the N95 8GB. Use the promotion code: N958GB at checkout to receive about 50% off!

From Proporta.com:
"The Proporta Alu-Crystal Case (Nokia n95 8GB), has been designed to add little bulk to the device whilst complimenting rather than hiding the stunning looks of your Nokia n95 8GB.
Made from a material that combines the durable and scratch resistant polycarbonate plastic with an aircraft grade aluminium, you’ll struggle to find a more lightweight yet protective case."

Product Page can be found here.

I checked all three of these and the only one that is promissing is this one and it says its out of stock:

Genuine Nokia N95 8GB / N95i Front Cover Assembley Warm Piano Black Part No: 0250323- Accessory Link LTD UK

I sent them an email to inquire.

Does anyone know if the clear screen protector that protects the actual LCD part of this part that is listed or, is the screen protector a separate part all by itself.

Writing from Mauritius:

I ordered one on the 4th. I got it today. The postal services did not damage it. Its an almost perfect fit. Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure.

My first impression is that the plastic case is not scratch resistant. Other contributors on this forum are right. It does feel solid and hardly adds additional bulk to the phone. On the slider part, there are very small and fragile plastic protrusions that aid in holding this part firmly on the slider. Be warned. Don't remove it and put it back without good reason. Strain will damage those little protrusions and it will be an annoyance to get the cover to hold that firmly again.

I am happy with my purchase and the nice discount using the promotional code. Proporta just needs to make the plastic more scratch resistant and find a better way to make the slider part fit and it will be perfect IMO.

Oh there's a small packet of Earl Grey tea that came along in the package :-)
Proporta says they send it because they can. Cute.

But will it scratch the phone? I thought somebody said it damaged the black finish on his ... which kind of defeats the purpose of protecting it.

I just got one of their ALU-Leather ones for my 8GB model, and it is OK... I do like the protection the aluminum plate covering the screen seems to provide but it adds quite a bit of bulk.
I have the original Nokia bookstyle one also, and I really don't like that because the flap doesn't seem to be abe to stay folded out of the way and it is really clumsy to use the phone when it is in that.
If the flap would fold back flat and stay there and it had an aluminum plate also I might like that style better, but Proporta or anyone else I have found so far doesn't have one like that for the 8GB model.
