This case is very well made and looks far more expensive than it is. It is a nice, compact case although it holds either my Tungsten C or E. I was looking for something classy but not too bulky and this is just right. The nickel clasp adds a beautiful accent and I prefer it to the loose closures of some of the more expensive cases (like most of the ones by Coach). The ballistic nylon is sturdy with a great texture and the entire case is extremely well made. There are slots for extra business or memory cards and well as a place for an extra stylus or small pen. With so many leather, aluminum or Body Glove type cases around, this one is unique while still looking professional. No matter how much of a PDA case snob you are, this one is a great choice.

The case is sturdy and nice looking. However, its metal clap nearly broke the screen of my Toshiba e330 several times. Use at your own risk.

I bought this PDA case by looking at price of $3.99. I have seen better than this in my local 99 cent store. I cannot keep my PDA in this case because it has no protection on sliding up or down from the case. I preferred to throw it rather than destroying my PDA by keeping in this.

I spent about 2 weeks using this case as a wallet case combo, in order to get over first impressions.

I've tried 3 different case styles now, looking for a good wallet/case combo for my dell axim x30. This one came closer than anything else I've tried, but the credit card pockets are still cut to tight, making it difficult to get things in and out. Also, the storage is on the trifold leaves, so when you fold it closed, that area presses in on the screen. Don't fill it too tight! It's not a space saver either , because the case doesn't fit the unit closely, leaving a lot of wasted space. My Krusell case (ASIN:B0002JDCQ8) plus my wallet together are smaller than this case. The closure is secure, but awkward.

My last point is a general critique of all such cases. If you're going to add storage space, you have to add it in such a way that the items don't press on the screen when it's closed. Pretty much the only way to do that is either to have a pocket on the back exterior that expands out, or an expandable pocket on the interior of a flap that folds over the front, hinging at the top.

In summary, it's worth $1.88 to see if it's going to work for you, but only if you're carrying it in a briefcase or purse, not in your pants pocket.

I only got this case because Amazon gave it away almost for free. I figured, for less than 2 bucks, I might as well get it. It's horrible in looks and design. If it costs more than 2 bucks, don't bother.

At the current price, this case is a steal. Well made (Targus makes HP's cases which they sell for 90% more!!!). This one uses velcro to hold your PDA (could have a bit more grip), which makes it easy to use with different models, has storage for extra SD cards as well as credit cards, etc. The clasp holds everything in securely, if a bit tightly. For my HP ipaq 3115, it is perfect.....for any PDA that is much larger, I can't say. But for the current price, it is tough to beat! If you will be using your
PDA in outdoor settings or just want extra protection, consider an aluminum case. They cost 10 times more but will protect the PDA from more abuse. If this model doesn't please you, you are out very little, but I think it will!

mine went start to the recycle bin :-) not a total lost I guess

exact product at an affordable price w a smooth transaction

This case appears sturdy and attractive. It would be a good quality universal case if it would more easily fit an Ipaq with an expansion pack on. I also do not care for the clasp. The price can not be beat at less than a couple of bucks otherwise I would rate it lower. I am using it for my Ipaq 5555. I can barely close the clasp with the expansion pack on. I am using it instead of the provided HP case even though it is difficult to get closed-- Mainly because I can charge it while it is in this case in the car.

seems nice.
But for some reason it is recomended by amazon as an accesory for my sharp 6000. unfortunately this product is way too small for it, but I did give it away as a gift.
