Ok, so here's my problem, I want to use my Blackberry when I'm shopping, sad? no it's just that I gave up using paper about 20 years ago when I got my very first Psion Organiser (CM) and I've still got it. So, I've got a great belt holster to carry my Blackberry around during the day but I've got an extensive Asda shopping list (yes really!, it's based on Microsoft Outlook Tasks under a category called 'Shopping', original eh!) and I don't want to risk the Blackberry slipping out of my hand whilst I'm battling the isles with a trolley that wants to go in a different direction than I do! Slight exaggeration really, shopping trollies are a lot better than they used to be. Ok, there must be a suitable case that I can hang around my neck to fully meet my need? You would have thought so, but after a few days searching online, I couldn't find one anywhere! not even http://www.ebay.co.uk or http://www.mobilefun.co.uk.So, I had an idea! :-) I thought that I'd get a good quality rubber skin (mobile phone case stall adjacent to Charing Cross Station, London; lovely Chinese Lady, who always gives me a discount) and put two little holes in opposite corners to take a cord. It worked a treat! :-) time will tell if the holes stand up to not tearing.
As far as I know, the conventional sized Blackberrys (certainly my 8820) sadly don't have a loop hole for a lanyard and so at least with my DIY carry case, the Blackberry can't accidentally fall out of my hand. This solution can of course used with any other mobile, smartphone that doesn't have a suitable case on the market. See my photo.
