Where can I find a COOL case for my PDA?

[EmilyZA]

I'm looking for a cool case for my PDA... something cute, but functional. Something that will protect it, but that I'll actually like.

Everything I find online or in stores is just so boring and business-like. :(

I think these Sena cases are the coolest!

Cool? I dunno, but it's not a typical case:

OMG I love those! I'm going with one of these... thanks!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was having the same problem finding a cute case for my new PDA... I just ordered the Lemon Lime one! :)

Have a great night everyone!

Glad I could help! Now I want one, too, but I am having a hard time deciding which one. I have it narrowed down to Nantucket Stripe, Lemon Lime, and Ella.

[EmilyZA]

A lot of them are sold out though! :(

[EmilyZA]

What do you girls have and what size are you getting?

I just ordered an iPAQ 3715, I"m leaning toward the small one.

I LOVE the Capri stripe pattern but they're sold out for the next 2 months! :(

[MrsBrooke]

I have a Dell Axim... I just whipped out a ruler and measured it, and it's dimensions fit the Small case. I thought my decision would be harder than it was, but since alot that I liked were sold out, my choice was actually pretty easy! :D

[amew]

I have a Blackberry -- I don't know the model number. It is 3" wide and 4.5" long, so I am leaning toward the small. It should just fit.

[swcolleen]

Those caes are cute-going to go check them out now!! I have a dell axim and just use the one it came with b/c I can't find one I really like!!!

[amew]

Has anyone received one of these yet? I am interested to hear a product review.

[swcolleen]

me too...i am a little nervouse about the velcro-is it easy to put in and take out if need to charge it???

[MrsBrooke]

I ordered the small Lemon Lime case and love it! My Dell Axim fits just right, and there are 2 elastic bands on the left side of the case that will hold in the stylus or other various stuff. I have gotten tons of compliments on it at work, and I especially love that I'll never get my PDA confused with everyone else's (I am a medical intern and our entire intern class was given the same PDA). The velcro was super easy to apply and holds the PDA in well...the only time I take mine out of the case is when i need to recharge it.

Things I would change...
The case is hard which makes it a bit heavy.
There is a big black label ("Pilgrim") stitched on the back, but I think it could be removed if it bugged you that much...
If I had designed them, I would've changed the color of the black leather closure and snap (they are black and brass, which just doesn't go with my green and yellow case as well as a silver snap though!)...

Overall, I really really like the case, and would recommend it to any thinking about it. It arrived wrapped in pretty tissue and with a hand-written note from the company, which I thought was sweet. Seems like it's someone's guest-bedroom side job, which I think is great, especially since I am so happy with the product.

Let me know if anyone has other questions!
Brooke

[swcolleen]

Thanks for the review!

Question: Do you have a dell axim with the wireless antena on top? I have the x30 wireless and I would worry that with the antena it wouldn't fit...at least in the small size.

thanks

[MrsBrooke]

Hey! My Axim doesn't have an antenna... but if it sticks out the top, you may want to get the large case. There's not much wiggle room in the small one!

[swcolleen]

THanks-good to know!

Anyway you can post a pic of your axim in its case??? :)

[EmilyZA]

I got the Ella and loved it. I mismeasured, and ended up ordering the bigger one, but I'm fine with that... it doesn't bother me. The velcro holds really well... so well that every time I take my PDA out to charge it, the back comes off (where the battery goes in!) That's the only thing that has bugged me about it.
