PalmOne V Premiere Zipper Case (Black Napa)

Summary: Pretty but...
Review: After extensive shopping in both retail and online stores, I found this case via the Palm web site and ordered it from Amazon.com. Appearance and size were primary purchasing considerations.

In looking at various cases in person, I tended to prefer cases with zippers to cases with snaps or straps as the zippered enclosure provides complete protection to all sides of the Palm. This case's small, lightweight design really complements the Vx itself. In my opinion, I cannot see a person buying a bulky case that also holds credit cards, a checkbook, etc. as that seems to defeat the purpose of buying a slim handheld like the Vx in the first place. That's not to say that this case doesn't have any storage whatsoever -- it has a single pocket for a driver's license, a few business cards or some extra cash. There's also a thoughtfully recessed area so the Vx's buttons aren't pressed by accident when the case is closed and in one's jacket or shirt pocket.

The black leather is top quality and this case seems very well made. The zipper glides smoothly and the Palm logo is attractively embossed on the front. Though somewhat more expensive than other Vx cases, this wonderful design is an excellent investment for any Palm V or Vx owner.

Summary: A spectacular product to protect your Palm Vx!
Review: After purchasing my Palm Vx, I began the hunt for a case. Noticing this - I was attracted to the leather exterior and the zipper security. I have not been disappointed. The zipper protects the Palm from any outside pressures -- in my purse or backpack -- no pens, pencils, car keys, etc. can "accidentally" enter the outside (like some clasp or loop closure cases) and touch my Palm or synch connectors. It is very easy to zip around - does not "stall" near the rounded corners at all. The Palm itself rests safe and secure on a center post. Snug is the word. It is remarkably well padded - giving protection to my screen. It is well protected. I have had no problems with accidentally turning on the Palm or removing the stylus for use. And it's very smart looking! The size is a plus -- very compact. Well worth the money. Should last me a very long time!

Review: Beautiful case! Well made...but, when you grab the case to put it in your pocket, it pushes on the power button and drains the batteries...not good. Sometimes just zipping the case (if you have 2 or more business cards in the case)pushes the power button and drains the battery. It's sweet looking but it does not protect well.
