Given the number of times I visit the site and see a case featured, I'm sure there must be more Pocket PC cases in the world than Pocket PCs... ;)

lol.. I know..
Whenever I visit this site, I see a case there and I think there have been no updates since the last time I visited. Then I see the second story and realize that there _have_ been updates... that's just a different case.

Well since there's somewhere in the neighborhood of 5-10 different cases available for each model of PPC that's out there....you do the math!

Anyway personally I don't think "Only" is a word that should appear next to a number like "$69.95" when referring to the cost of PPC cases, that's just outrageous! MHO of course :)

Ok, ok, you caught me - when I found all the Titanium cases at Mobile Planet, I queued up one post a day for each case, so that's why you've seen a lot lately. :lol:

I was just thinking of the fact that $30 is a big discount off $99, so it made sense to me. ;-)

True...its not cheap...but I bought one a couple of months ago with the same deal through the now defunct directcase.com. I was going to spend darn near this much on a Sena or Vaja case anyway. I have been very pleased with the case and I really like the extra protection.

Cases galore ! esp. for the 2200 series. I bought the titanium for that, i hope its lighter than the aluminum case, and the beltclip sold me too.
Can never look to geeky :lol:

wow they where $110 before the price drop? id save the change and set it aside to buy the next version of axim to replace my slightly scratched and rattled ppc rather then spend that much on a case that only protects it from sharp objects. fact is most ppc deaths occure by drops.

I was climbing off the roof of our plant yesterday. The screw for the clip on my Rhinoskin case failed and the case and my iPAQ 2210 fell about 20 feet. The fall was hard enough that the SD and CF were ejected. The case took a heck of a beating, but my iPAQ only has a very small crack at the bottom and I bent the case back into shape! I may just spring for the Titanium version.

Heh, well 30% off Too Much is still Too Much, for me anyway :) Then again I don't go climbing around on roofs with just a little belt clip holding my PPC to my person! If I were to do such things, then a Ti case might be worth the cost....or I could just leave my PPC in my desk when it was time to go roofwalking ;)
