<div class='os_post_top_link'><a href='http://www.casesonline.com' target='_blank'>http://www.casesonline.com</a><br /><br /></div>These cases look awesome. They have an immense variety (10 types of case, with various kinds of leather for each), so long as you have an iPaq (any unit, from 1910 through 5400).<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/CasesOnline.jpg" /><br /><br />Has anyone bought from this company?

Cases like this look nice, but I would be afraid to put anything into the slots on the inside cover for fear of scratching the screen. Credit cards, SD cards or CF cards would all have the potential of damaging the PDA.

I just saw the link to these cases at the HP website and posted it over at Brighthand earlier today.

I would be very curious to see how the slim case compares to the slipper case. I need something that will not add much mass to the 1910 while it's in my pocket.

I think these are nice-looking cases and much better priced than the Vaja cases...

I ordered a belt case in the Wall Street leather on the day that they launched their site. Relatively painless ordering process. I'll post thoughts and pictures once it arrives later this week.

You can't tell if these will fit with a CF expansion sleeve. I like the look, but without the CF expansion sleeve on my 3650 its a no go.

I have been using one of these cases for a while, i got hold of one before the site was launched. They are made of extremenly good quality leather and hold my 3975 in place very well. The mold surrounding the ipaq is very strong and better than others that i have come across. Highly recommend!

I was interested in getting a 1910 slim case, but it looks like the back panel is a lot wider all around the edges than it needs to be. I want something that more closely fits the PDA and takes up the least amount of room in my pocket...

Not so fast potato-boy! Vaja has mass-produced h1910 cases for as low as $54.90.

Just a heads-up...

My guess is that it won't; these seem targeted towards the consumer/"naked iPaq" community. If you need the CF expansion, go for either the CF+ with hard cover or get an E&B/Vaja case.

Well, I just looked at the Vaja site and they have only one color for the 1910 (in the clipless version) and it's listed as "Sold Out" -- has been listed that way since I first started checking the Vaja site a month ago.

At least the Cases Online products provide more options and are available now.

Concerning 1910 case, new slimmer and zipper in production which solves bulk issues. Cases will be launched on February 7th. Pictures available now, email from website and they will send you the pictures.

Also, found out that the HP Premier Case and Zipper currently on offer are actually made by this company. They all come with HP logo.

I speak with my friend (Production Manager) often so if you have any specific questions let me know and i will address them with him.
