Hehehe....cases, cases, cases....where to begin.

Are you going for looks or function? If looks (and a bit of function) Sena and Piel Frama seem to be the biggies around here. They're very nice looking, leather, have pockets for cards and such, and fit the Ax quite nicely.

For function, look at Grindergear and some of the harder cases (Rhinoskin perhaps). Grindergear cases are durable, water resistant, and hold everything you could possibly need them to (literally....everything). Rhinoskin aluminum cases are hard, form fitting, aircraft aluminum. Very protective for pocket use and such.

Cables....go with a USB sync/charge cable. So long as you're about 80% or so on your battery, these cables will sync your Ax while keeping it charged up as well. There are travel kits (I have one by Seidio) that also include a car charger (lighter plug) as well as a wall charger too. Total cost for cable, and the two other chargers should be around 20-25 dollars.

Hehehehe.....and you probably thought you were getting close to being finished buying stuff when you bought your Ax. :) It has only just begun.
