I must admit that I have never visited PalmTec or Scribble before. When I went to their new site I expected to see lots of Palm only stuff. But I was wrong. They have a <a href="http://www.proporta.com/Dept.asp?id=31">Pocket PC department</a>. A small one, but still! You'll find both hardware and software there! It's worth a visit.

I used one with my PSion 5mx and they were excellent - the case is made from ABS and the catches are really secure. They called it the Mobile Brief Case - you could use the Psion in the case, it was cut to allow the keyboard to slide out. In my factory, this was useful - we make ceramic powder sso many worktops are dusty - the case got dirty, not my Psion, and the case wipes clean easily. The colours are nice and for about 25 ukp, the casse is priced well.

Anyway, why mention this on a Pocket PC site? :? GO to www.foxpop.co.uk and search for "cases" - the Revo hard case fits the Pocket PCs very well - it evens fits the HP56x with thumb keyboard. I don't know about shipping costs, but for UK residents these cases are great for transporting your devices around. One at work I carry my 568 "naked" in my shirt, as the flip cover suffices. In my briefcase, the closed case is sealed against crumbs, dust etc. Oh yes, this may explain why my 568 is still dust free!! :lol:
