Summary: Case is ok, stylii useable, screen protectors useless
Review: I'm happy with the case. It looks sharp and seems strong enough to protect my m500. There was just enough extra room in the case to allow the Palm to rattle front-to-back. That was a little annoying so I stuck a little piece of foam to the inside corner of the front cover to prevent it. The cover does get in the way because it doesn't fold all the way back, but I just hold it differently and it's fine.
The stylii that come in this kit are just ...plastic ones, even though those depicted on the package look like the original metal one.
The screen protectors are useless. In addition to being difficult to apply, they aren't even big enough to cover the screen. I aligned the top and then the bottom came up about 5mm short. I have some WriteRight protectors from my old IIIe that I'm going to trim to fit the m500 screen instead.
I haven't tried the sync cable yet, but it seems well made. I didn't realize until I got it that it also charges your palm using the USB.What you get with this is:
1. a decent case - not the best, but it gets the job done
2. some cheezy plastic stylii
3. some useless clear stickers
4. what appears to be and probably is a fine sync/recharge cable.

Summary: You get what you pay for.
Review: This kit was a major disappointment. The case is pleasantly light, but it's hard to open and the top doesn't fold back, so it's hard to hold in one hand while you use the Palm. I also found it very stiff and hard to remove the Palm from the case. The whole construction felt cheap cheap cheap. The stylii that are bundled with this are also cheap, very much lighter than the stylus that comes with the Palm. I didn't like the screen protectors, either. I tried one, and to be fair, I may not have applied it correctly. I felt it obscured the screen somewhat. I didn't try the syncing cable. If you think you might like this, I strongly suggest you find a retail store where you can try it before you buy it. Amazon.com adds shipping charges to returns and it'll end up costing me about $...-$...to return it.
