I have just received from Brando Shopping their new Omnia back cover which replaces the original back cover.  The major advantage is that a stylus is added to this solution, and is contoured to the shape of the cover.

Some pics below.

It is plastic, with a rubber feel. 3 colours. Black, red and white.

How well does it work and is it worth the added bulk?

seconded, looks horrible

Who uses a stylus with an Omnia ??

Stopped using it days after I bought it.

[gavinfabl]

mainly for games the stylus becomes essential - I have 50 games

[meabigbaldguy]

Looks very generic... and too bulky!  Makes the device look like like a first generation Gameboy.

[yojoe600]

id like to see how omnia will look on black.

[Omnian]

fugly design.  they should just have a slot at the back to put in a flat stylus (almost like a toothpick size).

its really really really ugly lookin

[quylan87]

Oh, it is the case I am looking for, thank you

[captainsensible]

Damn, saw this thread and was hoping for so much better....

[new2city]

how does the buttons feel with the casing?  I feel it is difficult to make a double or triple press on the volume and the camera buttons already.  The rest seems ok..

It's pretty ugly but I think black should be ok.. right?

[d-ranged]

I like the look of these. Thanks for the heads up.

I don't think it looks so bad. And excuse me, but who is using the OMNIA completely without a stylus? This thing is only somewhat thumb-acurate. Is there a software suite as good as SPB that has big buttons or something?
