1.0 out of 5 stars dont bother, May 17, 2000

This review is from: Fellowes 98030 Black Bumper Case for Palm IIIxe, IIIe, and IIIx (Office Product)

So i'm messy and disorganised a Palm Pilot (IIIe) is perfect for me. I do not buy animal products so this case seemed perfect. HA! imagine a thick piece of flexible rubber built so if it breaks there are no parts a child could eat. This makes it not only bulky, poorly designed, but in conflict with the actual purpose of owning a case. the top doesnt stay on unless its taped down and forget about dropping it as nothing is holding your palm down inside. besides all this, let me mention that the pieces are so crudely put together dont even think about having liquid near by - one spill would leak completly thru the case... I've not tested this theory, but logic states that liquid can go thru spaces like these. Save your money and effort and look elsewhere, a company should be ashamed to put out such a poorly designed product.

2.0 out of 5 stars Bumper Case?, March 17, 2000

This case is really big and bulky. If you like to put your palm top in your pocket this not the case for you. You also have to completly remove the palm top from the case to hot sync.

2.0 out of 5 stars Problem with palm III, January 10, 2001

I've used this product for approximately 12 months. After a period of time my palm stopped accepting entries. I finally figured out that the pressure involved in getting the palm in and out of this product was the problem. Apparently it was causing a small movement between the front panel of the palm and the back panel, creating a loss of connection. No permanent problem was created, but I have had to stop using this product.
