Metal Case
I prefer using metal case for my PDA. I love the idea of metal case since palm first release one for palm V. I don't have a palm V back then. I was using a Palm III. Sad to say, palm III doesn't has any metal case.
When I upgraded to T3, it come bundled with a leather case. But I bought a metal case 1 week later and virtually threw away my leather case. The metal case was well use. So well used that it is full of battle scars. Well, scratches are meant to be found on case. They are there to protect your PDA.
Anyway, I didn't buy any leather case for my TX. Got myself a InnoPocket TX Metal Deluxe Case. Don't really like the casing. Firstly, the flip open on the left side instead of the right. You see, normally you'll hold the PDA on ur left hand and the stylus on your right hand. If the flip open on the left side, it would obstruct your left hand when you are holding the PDA. The other thing I don't like about the InnoPocket case is that hump at the 5 way navigation button. Would be nicer if they could make it smooth and flat.
Anyway, I saw this BoxWave Armor Case from 1src website. The flip still opens on the left side, but at least there is no hump.
If I saw this case when I bought my TX, I would had gotten it. Damn....

Hey DK,
Just wondering where you got your TX metal case from and for how much?
Might pick one up when I visit Singapore :)
Gotta get my TX first, I guess.
cheers,

There are 2 places you can go to get IT stuff in Singapore. Funan centre and Sim Lim Square.
I got mine from a shop in Funan call EDPOL. It's on the 4th floor. (#04-23) Its my fave place to get PDA stuff because the service is good.
I got the metal case at a discounted price of SGD$30 because I got my TX from them too. But if you are just buying the metal case alone, it should cost you abit more.
Welcome to Singapore. When are you coming?

A week before CNY.
Just got my TX. It's charging now. :D
Saw all the SLS price lists. Gave me a headache trying to figure out where I should buy from. I'll want to get a metal case, screen protector and retractable usb hotsync/charger cable.
So you reckon EDPOL is the best? Maybe I can tell them that DK sent me. :)

No point telling them who recommend u to them. They don't know me.
EDPOL's service is good. But if you are looking for the cheapest metal case, then u have to walk around to compare the prices. EDPOL's pricing is just average. Sometimes there are other stores that sell things cheaper.
