Default Piel Frama Case for iPAQ 6315

http://www.pielframa.com/ipaq_6300_series.htm

Piel Frama has announced a case for the iPAQ 6315. It has a unique design to accommodate the keyboard for both storage and use. (The image on the linked site is animated to give you a better idea.)

It's a beautiful case. However, seems it might take a while to answer the phone.

My thoughts exactly. It looks so nice to look at, but I like the ability to quickly grab my 6315 from my hip at anytime.

I'm also afraid that the speaker on the 6315 is so weak that this case would make it inaudible even further.

Very innovative, though. I don't know if I'd like to walk around with the keyboard attachment on, though, in public. :?

Very nice However, I'd think that the keyboard case would be prone to popping off when passing through narrower spaces.

I ordered one. Expensive as hell ($80 US) but I need something more convenient that what I got now. While I don't see me clipping the keyboard case to the phone, it is a nice stand-alone case to keep the keyboard in. Also, it's good to see that they went with a magnetic enclosure instead of their usual button snap type.

Oh, by the way, they aren't available now. I got an email that said it won't ship for 20 days. I don't get why these case makers don't have their cases ready to go immediately on a new device's release. I'm sure they could get engineering samples or at least a dummy case well ahead of a product's release. And of course, it looks like my card was charged immediately :bad-words:
