5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST accessory for your Casio PocketPC, March 23, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Casio Bi-Fold PDA Case for E-115 Pocket PC (Office Product)

Having recently purchased a Casio Cassiopeia E-125 and being instantly disappointed with the goofy little polyester/elastic pouch that came with it, I decided it was time to get something a little more useful for protecting my investment.

Casio; unlike Palm, Handspring & HP; does not provide a covering to protect the delicate and expensive color screen of the Cassiopeia. The competition almost always provides a platic or metal covering for there PDA screens; but Casio, for reasons unknown, doesn't bother.

So, with a bit of reluctance, I plopped down my money for the Casio Bi-Fold PDA case for the E-115. (Yes, it works fine with the E-125 as well...) The reluctance came from not ever having seen or handled the case; the only information I had to go on was that provided by Amazon.com. So I took a gamble and purchased the case. Boy am I glad I did!

The case is simplicity itself. Basic black leather in construction, with a little Velcro tab to keep the case securely closed. It opens like a book, with a small white pad of paper on the left hand side along with a small slot for stowing the occasional business card and such. The right hand side is the place for the Casio.

To install the PocketPC into the case, one simply inserts the unit through the top of a black leather "pocket." Holes are strategically located in this "pocket" in all the right places. There is a big rectangular cut-out for the screen, two smaller holes underneath for the cursor and select buttons, and several holes along the sides for access to the other buttons, ports and the all-important stylus. The unit can be inserted and removed from the pocket with great ease. Also, the leather pocket is held in place in the case by Velcro, so you can remove the Cassiopeia from the case with it's leather pocket securely attached. Unfortunately, you have to remove the Casio completely from it's protective pocket in order for it to fit in the synch cradle. I don't synch my Casio to my PC very often, so it's a non-issue for me. The main point is that all the Casio's functions can be utilized while the unit sits comforatably within it's leather case, with the exception of synching with the PC.

Another nice touch provided in the case is a small elasitic loop located in the "binder" for holding a pen. (necessary for writing on the handy-dandy paper notepad...)

Since the day I first installed my E-125 into this case, I've rarely removed it. It provides decent protection for the screen, and security for the mind. There are fancier and much more expensive cases available from Casio, but this little number is just right for yours truly.

If you are buying a Casio E-125, do make this case your very next purchase; you'll be glad you did.

Great quality leather bi-fold for Casio E-115 and earlier PDAs. Comfortable, doesn't add too much volume to the PDA.

I just received my new Casio Bi-Fold PDA case and I love it. this is the third case I have bought for my PDA and am finally satified. It has a place to carry my important cards, it folds out flat, so it doesen't get in the way of writing, it has a small note pad for those quick notes (which I have been looking for) and it was a great price. It looks like the third time was the charm.
