Any decent Axim cases for women?

mogicor · 08-13-04, 08:19 AM

I was about to purchase a new Rhinoskin hard case, but after walking around with my Axim for a 90 min. walkabout meeting I realized I'd still have the same, inconvenient problem. Newsflash to manufacturers: most women don't wear belts!! There is no place to clip a case, and I certainly don't want to carry a purse for every little thing (they're annoying enough!). Does anyone know of any decent options?

Welcome to AximSite,

I have seen very elegant one at www.belkin.com. Good luck

I recomend a Sena case, they have several different color
combinations, and the belt clip is optional.

There's even an optional slide in mirror.

Thank you for replying, and I checked out both sites, but there's still no easy way to carry the thing. I've seen a few beautiful cases, but they don't even have so much as a wrist loop so my hands can be free. Still looking! I think I found one at Coach, but OMG it is too expensive.

Most women wear pants or skirts and a belt clip can easily be attached to a waistband. Belt is not required for a belt clip. I haven't seen any with a wrist loop. I use a Piel Frama without the belt clip and just throw it in my handbag. I think the Armor case has a neck strap but don't know how convenient it is to use while in the case.

a case with a wrist strap?
Couldnt you just add one to a case?

I know this wont help..... but here's something.
This is the Javo Edge skin case.

here's a review of the case, and shows some better pictures, with
the wrist strap.

I know thats not what your looking for, but it does have
a wrist strap.

The Axim model wont be available for a few weeks though..

OFF TOPIC.

Sorry but I can't resist asking what a 'walkabout meeting' is?

Obviously what springs to mind is a meeting where you walk while you talk but that boggles the mind

Thanks

the coach pda case is 68 bucks.
if it fits your need, the price is not bad.
a souped up vaja cost you upward of 100 bucks.
plus, you get coach quality.

Hey Silentknight, those clear cases look great. I see the Axim models are on the way...

Yeah, I agree im looking forward to getting one..

Thanks, I'll check out any new sites. Regarding clipping a case to a waistband, I find that cases are usually too heavy for most fine fabrics, and don't work if you wear a shirt or blouse that is not meant to be tucked in. I'd add a wriststrap myself, but I'm not sure how without it looking too makeshift, like a camp project (I'm not too talented with things like that). Any ideas?

Finally, a "walkabout meeting" is one where you walk and talk, as is commonly done in educational administration when inspecting a school site, making appointments "on the fly," in hallways, or anywhere else people may find you. It sucks, but it's the nature of the game. I didn't realize that finding a simple case that would also leave my hands free (without a belt clip) would be so hard to find! Thanks again!
