Ok, Let's start this up again... Hopefully Monday will be a big day in the battle. For anyone new, we are trying to get Saunders to make a Rhinoskin case for the Axim(like the IPaq model)they are saying there won't be one. anyone wanting to add a voice can e-mail them at the address below.

;) Okay, Nitefly, I just jetted off an email to Saunders to ask for this case also. Hopefully they will reconsider. My Axim is coming today!! I cannot sleep! UPS tried to deliver Friday while I was at work and there was no one home to receive it. I'm off tomorrow so I will be here when they deliver then.

Great to see that even though we've had some technical problems the board still lives on and the group is still united.

Nitefly thanks for continuing the battle for a Rhinoskins case! I thought I was alone in my mission for a hardcase.

Any idea if Rhinoskins has responded? If they don't respond soon a requesters list (aka petition) should created by all AXIM users.

If Rhinoskins ignores our requests for a hardcase we can go to Fellows. Thanks Vdubjim!

I like the Felloews one better, too :)

Back before the server crash, someone posted link to a site called nitelite or something like that. Anyone know what the heck I am referring to? It was kind of like a heavy duty nylon case, more like a hiking case for you Axim.

Dear sir or madam:

I am interested in knowing the general release date for an Aluminum PDA case for my Dell AXIM X5.  
If so perhaps you could integrate a small adapter in the case to overcome the shortcomings of the Dell's "scroll wheel"

Please send replies to ******@alltel.net instead of my work address please.

Hi Glenn,

We are in the middle of product development on an aluminum case for the Dell Axim. Could you more clearly define what you mean by "a small adapter" for overcoming the scroll wheel shortcomings? It is not too late to make changes to the cases that we are developing, so any feedback and details would be very helpful!

We are anticipating a March release date on aluminum cases for the Dell. Leathers may be out a little bit sooner.

Thanks for the inquiry. Looking forward to your response.

Regards,

John Soucy
Asst. Product Mgr.

W00t! Happy waiting!

BTW e-mail klaner@alltel.net if you want a copy of the e-mail/ plans i sent him, i'll try to keep everyone updated on how things go.
