Default Hard Case for Jornada 568

After my screen was busted, I decided to get it repaired. When I get it back, I'm considering getting a hard case for it this time. What's still available for Jornada 560s? If you have one, which one is it?

p.s. Also open to other case suggestions. My Vaja is showing a lot of wear.

why would you need a cover? the 568 comes with a very nice flip cover.
saves space. dispenses with need for a bukly leather case.
what I do is place the pda in my right pants pocket and shares the space with the hankerchief. keys, phones, etc goes into my left pocket and you'll be surprised how long the coating lasts....(there will be some wear at the corners but thats fine).

Honestly, I can't find the lid. But, metal would offer more protection, hence my looking for a full metal jacket.

i'm sending him my jornada for a make over...

As far as case, I have used a Kramer leather case from day one, the only draw back was it seem to collect alot of dust and I still use original plastic cover when dressing up (yes less bulk).

Fry's use to have thin metal case (generic) for PDAs.

Hope this helps.
