Default can someone explain the point of the "pocket bungee&quo

You've got a $500 machine, strapped to your wrist, hanging and lolling and banging into things. So, THIS is supposed to be safety? You're not dropping it, but hey, no worries, that you're banging it into things because it HANGS FOLKS, IT'S HANGING FROM YOUR WRISTS, and that's supposed to be safety???

Who believes this stuff? I am more worried about dropping it and banging it into things, wouldn't a better, sturdier case that would protect the Ipaq from drops and bangs be more what someone should be marketing?

Something like the Ipaq Armor that supports SS2-5?

As it is, I like the SS series of packs, but the plastic cover pack doesn't do anything but keep the front of hte screen from cracking or scratching, if you still drop your Ipaq you're going to make it break. The plastic cover will crack, your screen MAY be protected, but your device WILL most likely die from the impact. How is this protecting the device? You've got a great screen, but your device is cracked in two.

Default I agree - bungee? Give me a break!

What a piece of CRAP!

Sorry guys, but the idea of hanging my $1000 (CAN + TAX ) device from my wrist by your dinky little strap isn't very comforting.

Plus, you would look like a complete idiot and super geek when using it.
