Which case for axim 51v
I narrowed down my quest for cases to 2. Please any light on which one of these, pros and cons.

1. EB Slipper Black Leather Case for Dell Axim X50(v) and X51(v)
2. Sena Leather Cases for Dell Axim X50(v) and X51(v)
The first 2 can be bought on www.aximcases.com,
It seems to me that the first one (EB slipper) has better protection on the corners than the Sena.
Thanks
Billy

I have the Sena and can only comment on that. Yes, the bottom corners are exposed but that's the only way it can fit in the cradle with the case on. The fit and finish on the Sena is wonderful, every hole / opening lines up perfectly and it fits nice and snug. The leather in nice and the "flap" over cover is stiff but not thick and the magnectic closure works well. I have the blue/black combo and as I have mentioned before the blue is not nearly as bright as the web page shows.

Thanks for the reply. That's one more for sena. I was checking eb website and it says that the EB case can be used only with the USB cable, meaning that it won't fit in the cradle.

That EB case does look nice. I personally own the Sena and love it.. but I think the two of these are very similar.

I would suggest that it comes down to personal differences. How do you use your Ax? Does it sit in the cradle a lot? If so, go for the Sena since it can sync while in the case on the crade. If you don't use the cradle, go for the EP since it seems to offer a bit more protection. Also, it looks like the EB case has a hole in the flap instead of a notch for the headphones (can't tell for sure from the pics). If you use your Ax w/ headphones a lot, you might should get the Sena. The notch design of the Sena headphone access works well.

I love my sena case, it has been great, I love being able to put it in the cradle without removing the case. It is very well made, and i love the magnets that hold the cover on it. It is just one of the best cases out there.

If you want something new and different, check out that new Aximsite Sena case, that looks pretty nice to me, if I didn't have a case (or an extended battery) I'd haev one of those.

What do they mean with the DELL AXIM X50-X50v-X51-X51v CASES (For Extended Battery)? Does it mean that it will fit with the 2200mh battery or that it has a case for the extended battery
Thanks for the input

It means it will fit the device with the extended battery installed.

I really like the ensignia case I got for my x51v. It's well made and offers a fair degree of protection.
