rustyz82 · 11-09-03, 11:08 AM

Ok, i was wondering what some of your guys's opinions are for a good case, i'll describe what i need below......

Ok i am a computer consultant and I am constantly on the go, getting in and out of my car, working on computers both on the desk and taking them apart for repairs, i need something durrable that I can clip to my belt and can just pull off, use and put it back with the minimal amount of hassle. money isnt a problem i am just looking for the best solution, thanks. btw i would prefer a hard case...

Sounds to me that you would either need to look into the following two cases.

DSI Holster
Sena Case

Some other options to consider when looking for a case is if you wish to be able to sync while in the case. Secondly, CF slot and SD slot, do you wish to be able to use these while within the case? Both of the above cases can do these. I'm not sure about the DSI being able to sync while in the case but I know the Sena can.

Right now Piel Frama is my favorite, especially since they have a case to accomodate the extended battery. The DSI case is nice, but I have read about problems with the belt clip breaking or coming undone.

if you can find it, belkin makes a multifunction case for the axim that allows you to clip it to your belt, or convert it into a slim case for easy carry. I was able to pick one up from best buy, but it was the last one they had and it was an open box buy so...

I love my piel frama case(see my sig) but for a hard case, the rhino skin are the best

I am using the rhino titanium right now and its nice and sturdy. However the belt clip was flimsy but I heard this problem was fixed in later models

jup!

i would also advise you to go with the rhinoskin titanium one..

I'd also recommend the RhinoSkin titanium, make sure you check the shop tab at the top of this site. It should still have the 30.00 discount for the rhino titanium.

Its funny I am looking for a case, but I want the wallet function there as well. I was wondering if any of you have a wallet/case: meaning it can hold business cards and credit cards with a lot of debt on them. Any suggestions for that?

If you want a case with a wallet function, the belkin multifunction case I mentioned earlier has one (this is a flip style case). If you can't find that one, then dell has a zippered leather version for $15 (this one is a portfolio style case).

At first thought the hard cases sound like a good idea, but I like the soft ones.
I don't think the hard ones protect any better, and maybe not even as good.
I like a good leather case.

The Piel frama case is a great wallet case. Slots for credit cards and other slots for different stuff. (see my link in my signature)

aximcases.com had the titanium rhino for $59.00. i haven't checked over the past 2-3 days.......otherwise, the krusell is a great case. one thing i've noticed with all the belt clip cases BE CAREFUL getting in and out of the car. i've broken more clips and/or cases getting them hooked on the seatbelt, doorframe, etc. i'm currently using a grindergear, and plan on doing a review on it soon.
