I am planning to get me this case, I just want to KNOW if it has a MAGNETIC-enclosure or a VELCRO one
I prefer havin' a VELCRO one as there has been an ISSUE with the
P990i fone with magentic cases (leather) when it touches the right-side of the fone the SCREEN turns WHITE
hopefully it's NOT the White-Screen-Of-Death issue
Thanks!

implemented a reed switch with a magnet hidden in the flip in order to switch between FO and FC mode this really is quite an old technology and has been used for years in such things as home alarms with door contacts.
If the magnet can cause damage to the screen do you really think
would use a magnet inside the flip in close proximity to the phone?
NO!!!
So therefore you have nothing to worry about using a case with a magnetic latch!
I REALLY do hope this puts your mind at rest!

@nanu - Thanks ! OK, it will NOT do HARM with the LCD/screen . . . but what about the FONES entire-operation
As I remember in the past when I am suin' a MAGNET in my television as it makes the SCREEN - berserk
Well, do ya have any IDEA about the
IEC-20 leather case in particular
MAGNET or VELCRO

Totally different technology!!! yes a magnet would balls up a tv screen in the past!!
here is a video of me taking a large magnet to my P990 and I can assure you it still works fine!!
wouldn't continue to manufacture cases with magnetic catches if it caused damage as they would be liable for replacement!

Why not just use your pant pockets?
Why waste money on leather cases when u know the phone will get old anyway

Have you seen how much shiny surface there is to scratch on the K850i? Its a constant battle to keep it in pristine condition, and then there is the reported 'dust behind the lens' issue.
It looks like a phone that could age very quickly without the proper TLC.

isn't this the same (non) argument as "why bother taking a shower 'coz you're going to get dirty anyway?"

@cherry - Well, I've tried that BEFORE
as I don't FANCY leather cases as I find them out-of-fashion
as ONLY old-people (48 years old and above) would be usin' them . . . but when I started experiencing some problems with the fone when PLACED inside my trouser's pocket . . . some UNWANTED things happens . . . like, YES, scratches (gets in contact with coins car keys and some other metallic-objects) . . . and when I'm wearin' my tight-fitted Armani Jeans . . . and bend, say to TIE shoelaces or reach objects on the FLOOR, the FONE turns-off by itself. Then, that's when I knew the importance of wearin' condoms, ooops, I mean - leather cases . . .
I am still awaiting for the OWNERS of this very elusive
IEC-20 leather case if it has a MAGNETIC or VELCRO-enclosure
Thanks!
