Worried Axim Cases in Canada

Does anyone know of any Canadian eTailors that are selling Axim cases? I've checked the usual retail suspects (Future Shop, Staples, Best Buy Canada) and have found nothing.

I think your best bet would be to purchase it off the web. I haven't seen any in Canada either.

Rocky,

The *best* I've seen (and it's pretty sad) is a LowePro case at London Drugs.

It's not the greatest case, but it does have an attachment for your belt, it fits the Axim and it was only $10 CDN.

Other than that Canada, like with most other technology, is light years behind. Mind you, it's still difficult to find Axim cases even in the US.

A few places I'd recommend if you're looking for Axim stuff in Canada are:

Handheld Canada

and

eCOST

I would strongly recommend Handheld Canada - they actually have a LOT of products for the Axim (including the WriteShield protectors) and you don't have to worry about things such as duty, etc.

HTH,

Nick

I checked out Handheld Canada....Ummm....are you kidding me?
Their prices are right out-to-lunch. CDN$250 for 256MB SD card?
Maybe they haven't heard that everyone else in Canada is now selling them at CDN$150.

On another topic, has anyone found the one Ipaq case that was reviewed by NMkiD anywhere in Canada? Here's the pic from his review:

I'll agree with you there - the prices for non-specific PDA stuff are much better elsewhere, but for stuff like the WriteShields - I'm pretty happy saving $12 in duty fees and paying slightly less for the product as well.

They do need to beef up on their Dell product line, seeing as they really only have the WriteShields - but it's a start :)

If I find anything else as far as CanCon for Dell related products, I'll post it on the "Hot Deals in Canada" board.

And if anyone knows anywhere else, please - Post there! :D

Thanks,

Nick
