I agree that the cover on the Palm III's was smoother but it didn't fold back all the way either. I also agree that this new one is not the prettiest thing.

This cover is in no way a "case" and provide little protection except from direct blows to the screen. There is pressure from the foam on the screen but as far as I can tell it is well distributed with the brunt of it falling on two small rubber feet near the bottom.

Basically I needed something small enough to keep it in my shirt pocket (scrubs really ;) ) and protect the screen from incidental trauma. It does that well enough.

There is no protection from falls, spills or the like. Considering my track record with 3 Palm III's, 2 Visor Plats and a Visor Prism, I should have waited for one of the new alum cases coming out as I don't mind the side-opening idea.
