Windows Phone Thoughts: The Gadgeteer Reviews the Fortte HTC Apache Case

"Looking for the perfect HTC Apache case has turned into an obsession for quite a few of the device's owners. But what is perfect for one person may be the ultimate deal-breaker for another. Some people want a case that protects every corner and surface, while others want the thinnest possible design - one that adds very little additional bulk or weight.

For better or for worse, some of us have a serious obsession with cases for our Pocket PCs, and it seems that the HTC Apache (and the HTC Wizard) have had quite a few options out there with some rather interesting ways to handle the device's main case headache - the built-in keyboard.
