thoughts: expensive cases, and upgrades, and form factors

Investing in an Expensive Leather case - Sena cases etc really cost a lot; do you guys really expect that when the next handheld model comes out, there would also be a case upgrade? Or, are people just wishing that the form factor be maintained?

just thinking out aloud here...

If you look at the X5, X30, and X50 you'll note that there were changes in form factor making it necessary to purchase a new case (at least for some cases, particularly hard cases). Given this history, I suspect the next ppc from Dell will also change.

It is sad but true that everytime you get a new Axim the case, adapter etc... need to be replace. It is a cash grab for many company and it won't change for the next release. Don't open your mind to the concept just your wallet.

The only time form factor did not change was from X3/X3i to X30 and that was more the exception than the rule.
