I'm not saying this is a great review, but I think this is a great case! :D

This is a case I found at Office Max, it was in a hard plastic sealed container thing, see thu and your not able to open it to try it out. This at first detered me from getting it but I asked a sales person if I could bring it back, they said yes, so I said what the hell!

This case is designed for an iPAQ, thats how its labled and advertised. It wasnt in the section where the cases were for show it was in a cardboard display thing in the general area. Its from a company called Avenues in Leater, the website is www.avenuesinleather.com however the product I'm reviewing is not on that website.

The case was $40, and leather, it has 2 zipper pouches, and its not very iPAQ specific, as a matter of fact there is a similarity in most PDA's button locations so it was not a problem to place the Axim in it.

You can really fill this thing up, I currently have:

1) the Axim (very nice snug fit, has stretchy fabric to ensure snug fit)
2) a Liknsys CF card (dosent push on the screen, it sits against the leather section holding in top of the Axim.)
3) extra stylus
4) MICRO IR Keyboard
5) 3400 extra battery
6) earbuds
7) sometimes... the USB sync cable, this really stretches it out

I like to fit a lot of things into a small space because I dont like to carry alot and this is relitevly small for holding so much, it also has the basic case accessories, room for business cards, small pockets, etc, and actually 3 CF card holder slots.

Now for the pics, well 1 pic actually, its a little big but not really, just let it load:



later fellas

There is a useful site: www.freecases.com.
They have selection of &quot;free&quot; cases ( pay only s&amp;h)
I ordered from them paing just $6.95 for Incipio Pocket PC Black Nylon.
Hopefully it will fit my Axim.

I have one question for you NMKid, do the credit cards press against the Axim screen? That is my biggest turnoff on other cases because the cards are always opposite the screen and press against it. Not only could this be harmful for the screen, it could also scratch it. Maybe I am just too uptight about keeping my screen looking nice.

NMKid that case looks like what I am looking for too. It looks like you can put a keyboard and everything you could possibly want to put into it. Thanks for the info.

I have a writeshield screen protector so I dont have to worry about anything damaging the screen, especially just a credit card, but yeah, when I put a few cards in there is the potential for the card to touch the screen...

I'm not sure if that one on their website is the same one, its got a palm pictured so I can't be 100% sure, but I think it might be afterall.

Thanks for those links. I especially enjoyed learning about the waterproof case. That is just COOL!! Not that I would need it, but it was fun to look at. I am glad to be see so many new options coming out for our Axim's.

see http://www.thepouch.com/

neoprene case with a flip over cover, a pocket on the back and a web strap on the back which can be used to attach to a belt. I have been using for over a month and have been very satisfied.

NMkiD,

Do you have the model# for the case in this review? I'm in Canada and I've checked several stores and cannot find this case.
It looks just about perfect, but I may need to order one if I can't find it locally.

Chris...

jpross

Thanks NMkiD

I went out and bought the case and it works just fine for me and my keyboard but I cant seem to put as many things into it as you have, especially the earbuds. I can't seem to get them to fit in either compartment.
