Hey, I just got a iPaq 4150. When a aluminum hard case is made available for it I would like to get it for the protection but I was wondering about the WiFi.

Do you think that it would effect the preformance?

Thanks,

i see no reason why as aluminium isn't a dense metal, not dense enough to interfere with wifi to a noticeable extent anyway

I've got an Aluminium case for my 2210 and if I am using Bluetooth the range is affected but only if I close the case.

Given that I am unlikely to use the ipaq with the case closel I didn't see this as a big deal.
