case for x30?!?!?
Im shopping around for a case with my x30. Currently I am looking at the INNOPOCKET Aluminum Metal Case. Read a few threads here that its an awesome case. What about a leather case. I always have a thing for Vaga case, but they are too much for me. I used to have the Krussel case with my h2215. I didnt like it at all, because it wasnt tight enough to hold on to the pda. It feels it will slide right out. actually i think it did a few times. I also used a clear plastic case which I like alot. I guess it was because I was able to see the screen without opening the cover. able to listen to mp3 and look at the screen and use the d=pad buttons without opening the cover. well thats the past. time to get one for my x30 now.

I saw on ebay this leather case. Looks like from the pic. but just those two little piece of leather, would it hold the pda w/o having to worry??

or even this one from Beklin.

I have a Rhinoskin Aluminum case and recntly bought a Piel Frama leather case from Aximcases.com. I needed something "dressy" for the corp offices. I will still use the Rhinoskin when roughing it, but for the office it's the leather case. Piel Frama was $45/ shipped (used Aximsite Member discount found here: http://www.aximsite.com/boards/forumdisplay.php?f=36 )

psswrd, of the forementioned cases, i can only vouch for the belkin.

the belkin actually has, what i think to be, steel backing. its like a cross, it curves at the bottom to hold it, crosses to hold the sides, and contiunes up the back of the unit to hold the top in place. its actually very secure. its all coated with leather or fabric and is very nice.

the one on ebay looks like it doesn't have a hole for your wifi antenna which would cause a problem. I'd go with the belkin looks sleek.

I have the blue/black Sena case. The fit is really snug and doesn't move around at all. The closure mechanism is why I bought it. Its magnetic, so its easy to flip it open with just a finger. Plus, its got a two-tone color which is really cool since all the other cases are one colored (unless you're not a fan of two-toned items). Aximcases.com is where I got mine.

I had the belkin since I got the X 30, no problems and the opening for the wi-fi makes it easy to stream music with the lid closed

i just got the Galanteya leather case from Aximcases.com. With shipping and aximsite discount it was only about $20. It's actually much nicer than I expected. Fits perfectly, covers the sides and bottom and all of the cutouts line up.

I just use the Dell supplied case. As always, make sure the screen faces away from the belt clip.

Do you have the 1800 battery?
It looks like a decent case, and it is the kind of flip I am looking for. So you can stand it up with the cover flipped back.

No, sorry, it won't fit with the extended battery. They have a couple that do, but they cost quite a bit more.
