Product Description

Amazon.com

It does no good being organized if your data isn't with you when you need it. This Slim Leather Carrying Case holds all manner of 3Com Palm products (including the Palm III, PalmPilot, and Pilot Organizers), and also doubles as a wallet. In addition to the PalmPilot, the case opens like a book to hold three credit cards and whatever amount of cash you might need. A Velcro patch is included to attach the computer to the back of the case, and a Velcro strap keeps the cover in place over the screen. With money, cards, and PalmPilot in place, the whole package is still only slightly larger than a deck of cards.

Amazon.com Product Description

Enjoy style and security in one handy carrying case. A Velcro patch keeps your handheld securely inside, and another Velcro strap keeps the case closed, so it fits easily into a purse, briefcase or shirt pocket. Just attach your handheld and go.

1.0 out of 5 stars A good idea frustrated by poor design., November 18, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: PalmOne III Slim Leather Case (Office Product)

The PalmPilot leather case is an attractive way of carrying and storing your PalmPilot.

However, the industrial strength velcro fastener that attaches the PalmPilot to the case is simply a bad idea. The Palm Pilot must be detached from the case every time you HotSync and this is annoying and inconvenient. But of even more concern is the fact that this frequent unfastening flexes the PalmPilot case, which in my case resulted in major damage to the electronics inside the device. There are better designed cases on the market which are more convenient and don't pose a threat to your PalmPilot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy access, easy Hotsync, minimum fuss., December 10, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: PalmOne III Slim Leather Case (Office Product)

I really love this case. The Velcro fastener on the PalmPilot isn't that bad; I've used the case for more than a year, and haven't had any problems (especially of the damage-causing variety).

The fastener is clean and simple. Opening and closing the case is quick, and the left flap allows a comfortable hold where I don't have to wrap my entire hand around the PalmPilot.

The two flaps are rigid, so they offer screen protection. The case is also the slimmest you'll find, adding minimal bulk.

I've had this case for only a few months and the velco holding the case shut is all worn out. This is not an isolated case as another customer has had the same problem. Beware, the velcro is of poor quality.
