:Bigwave: There are several threads about cases. Do a search and you can start to see the variety available and the passions that run deep in terms of favorites. Do some reading and if you have specific questions I'm sure everyone will weigh in.

My X51v is very happy with the RhinoSkin hardcase with extended battery support. The only (very minor) issue is the SD card storage, which I have also posted somewhere in this forum.

I had an X30 with a leather case before. Good protection but since the case is not rigid, sometimes when pressure is applied on the case, the power button is activated. The hard case eliminates that,

My Axim has already survived a fall from waist level, no damages. I have the complete care warranty but I always hope I do not have to use it. So far, so good.

I recently bought an extended battery for my X50v so I needed a new case. I like leather so this narrowed the choice down to Sena or Pile Frama. I bought the Sena and I am quite delighted with it. I read in reviews that earlier Sena cases partly covered up the D-pad at the bottom but they have now modified the lower strap and there is plenty of space both above and below the D-pad. You can but it either with or without a belt clip but if you chose the belt clip version the mounting stud at the back of the case is not removable.

I bought it from cases.com who I strongly recommend. I believe that they give a 15% discount to Aximsite members. Click on Aximcases on the front page and you will se their whole range.

A little pricy, but if you want a real rugged case look at

You kind of build your own. I've had one for about 6 months.

Sena works great for me. I love not having to remove my Axim from the case just so I can dock it in the cradle.

Definatly agree with the comments about Sena cases, i have them for both my X51v and my O2 XDA (both black and red). i was also lucky enough to get the Aximsite Sena special case but i only use them for special occasions,

I have mine in an Innopocket Magnum... it's already taken a few spills and not even a scratch on the case (knock on wood). highly recomended.

Depends on:

- are you going to use the 1100mAh battery? I have the Inno Mag case and I love it.

- are you going to get an extended battery? Lots of people (like me) find out that the regular battery isn't enough so the Inno is out - check other brands like Sena, Piel ...

If I could get an Inno with an extended battery fit I would buy it.

Is there a case that supports the large Mugen 3300 mah battery? Especially one that allows docking with the case on.
