Default Didn't HP promise a flip cover?

Where is it?!

Does anyone know a third party flip cover that I can order or one that is in the works?

JavoEdge markets a clear plastic flip cover for 2200's, its been discussed in this thread. Doesn't seem like what I personally would want so I'm waiting for the next one to come along. HP never (I don't think) promised a flip cover, though they did talk about the anchor points on the back of the 2200's being designed for things like flip covers (and now apparently, extended batteries).

Nope, HP never promised one - we just all thought there'd be one considering the little notches...wishful thinking I guess. :roll:

That's fine, a review would be nice. I'll prolly order one just to see it personally.

I really like the leather flip-cover case from Sena for my 2215. It's classy looking, protects the screen AND give quick access to the device.

No, I saw on an HP FAQ when the 221x first came out, saying that those holes were indeed for a "coming" flip cover. Not saying they were right, but that's what they said...

I knew I saw that somewhere! :mrgreen:

The Sena case is nice, but I'm an uber Jornada 568 fan 0X

People always get confused about this one. The FAQ is still there. They never promised that a flip cover was coming.

Why are there two holes on the back of the iPAQ Pocket PC h2210?
The holes on the back of the unit were designed for use with future accessories such as a flip cover.
