well I called my local att corp store here in twin falls, idaho! and I asked if they had the captivate in stock? So the manager went to look in the back, when she got back on the phone with me, she gave me the unfortunate and said they didnt have any, but did have some accessorries for it! i asked what were they? and she said a black case with galaxy s logo on the back and a car charger! So has anyone bought any of these yet?
 
I had ordered a leather horizontal case off ebay about a week ago for $5.49 shipped not expecting much and it would tide me over till more cases come available. I was really surprised it was real leather and nice. The Captivate fits snug but nice it has a soft liner on the inside. I also bought a gel case at AT&T it is also okay, but it cost $24.95. If you put the gel case on it won't fit in the leather case.

Yup, that's what it looked like to me. Didn't seem to have a screen protector, but I could be wrong. I really wish I could have gotten a pic of the back, but I was so pumped about potentially getting the Captivate, my brain shut off, haha. I can't even remember if it had a back to it. I believe it does though. Also, it was $30 (well $29). That's all my store had, no car chargers or anything. Interesting though, this was under a blank panel (clearly they are making room for the Captivate), that was next to the iPhone 3GS....even still AT&T is pushing the iPhone
 
That same clear hard shell case was the only Captivate accessory my local corporate store had this afternoon ... They said they had a few Captivates in stock but would not say how many or let me see one ... :(
 
I bought that clear case from AT&T. I think its made by Incipio. However, I thought it really took away from the beauty of the phone so I took it off. Hopefully my phone doesn't get scratched to sh*t. I had a devil of a time getting it off too.
 
I purchased the clear plastic case for $30.00 for the Captivate... Thought it was a smart move and worth the $$.
 
I got the Body Glove semi-rigid silicone case with the phone. Paid too much for it but who takes their baby home from the hospital naked?

I am interested in that leather case you posted about, crashcarruthers. I am pretty sure you're not supposed to link directly to auctions or whatnot but how did you find it?
 
I got the Body Glove. Like someone said, I wouldn't take this thing out of the store without a case. I like it, its very nice.

Is it for the Captivate? I couldn't find any Captivate specific ones on their site, but I'd like to see what it looks like.
 
Hey all, first post.

I got the clear case pictured above and love the way it looks and feels and some screen protectors. It was a little more than the body glove protector but shows off the phone a bit more.

It fits really well and tight, in fact my only complaint is that it's very difficult to remove... which is okay because I won't often be removing it. I'll post a pic of it in the case after I take one.
 
Couple of quick pics.

I also got the body glove case at at&t. It is a form fitting flat black on front edge and top/bottom edges that does not block the screen at all, and the sides and back are a glossier black with closely spaced diagonal flat black stripes that are slightly raised, giving tactical feedback.

The side mounted switches are still easily accessible.

I think it looks and feels nice.

I'm having a heck of a time getting the screen protector on correctly. You have to line it up EXACTLY and any bit of dust causes a bubble. Very frustrating!

I had the exact same issue.. It was much worse/more difficult than my previous Iphone..

Took the entire pack of 3 to get one on, with no dust specs under it.. =/
