Does such a case exist????
Okay, I want to have 2 cases for my axim: an aluminum one for day to day stuff (like lugging it around school) and a bigger, leather "executive" type for longer but less dangerous ordeals (car/plane trips, when I need some storage). The problem is, I can't find a leather case that suits my needs. Does anyone know of ANY case, leather or otherwise, that suits these criteria:

-opens book style, not flip top
-magnetic closure
-can store pen and 2 sd cards
-preferably allows synching with a cable without removing axim
-can't be one of those huge monstrosities with notepads and business cards

It sounds simple enough, but I've looked everywhere I can think of and can find nothing. I'm almost considering making my own The Dell leather case is close but doesn't have the magnetic closure (snap = too high profile). Arrrr!!

These are all great, but the zippered one can't hold a pen and the others have those damn snaps. I really do want the magnetic closure because A)snaps wear out, B) I hate fumbling with them and C) this thing will be in a jacket pocket, so the lower-profile the better.

is there a reason you don't want a flip style case?

Pen storage. I haven't seen one yet that can hold a separate pen. If you know of one that does, however, I'll jump on it so long as it meets the other criteria (I've got one of those multi-pen things with a stylus tip built in that I love using)
