I'm a sucker for metal cases - I just love the way they look! At $99 USD, this isn't a cheap case, but it's TITANIUM! :mrgreen: They're shipping me a review unit, so I'll be sure to post my thoughts shortly after receiving it.

OooOOOoohh! Nice! I love titanium. I bought a titanium watch last year and it's absolutely fantastic. It's so incredibly light and durable.. you hardly feel you're wearing it, and very scratch resistant! Titanium isn't cheap - but definitely worth it.

I'm probably going to buy a nice metal case as well for my ipaq 1915 which I'll have in a day or two

Very nice case, but the price.... Ouch! For that money I would buy a Vaja case.

Nice! I have the same thing in aluminum and it's very usable.

They should really use a jpeg instead of a gif for the product image though - the way gif handles gradients makes it look terrible.

Guniea pigs, obviously.

Plus the thing's been on the market far longer, and until the 2210's had time to build up customer numbers you have to expect these things slower. Patience...

My last RhinoSkin aluminum case was very slippery; and I paid close to $30! I need something which is much more..less slippery, and doesnt scratch so often.
