Ok here it goes. I just bought a leather case from Proporta for my h4150, and I really like it. It's almost perfect, a little large, but hey, I also got a brand new brieftote for my birthday, so space is no problem.

I also bought a new Sena case, because it did look so nice in the pictures, but now that I saw it in real life, I am sending it back because I don't like it at all. Now there's the thing. If I send it back, I'll be given back my money, so what am I going to spend it on next??

There are a few options, so I thought, why not ask the experts?

1. Extended battery. Nice to have, but will not fit in the Proporta case.
2. Regular battery. A handy back up for power problems, would not have any problems fitting in a case, but is it worth the money??
3. Proporta or Innopocket Alu hard case (because you always need a hard case, don't you?)
4. A second cradle for the office (but then I would need a second charger to go with it!!)
5. Nothing at all. Safe the money and be a good girl. :?

So, what's it gonna be?? :D

Now it's REALLY getting interesting... didn't even think about the software thing.
Hmmm, what would I need software-wise...?

Sorry, Vaja is out of the question, unless they come up with a case for h4150 that DOESN'T have a strap. (Then I MIGHT consider to purchase one and spend the ridiculously high amount on shipping charges to Canada!!!) 8O

Look at it this way, you get to buy what you've always really wanted but wouldn't consider spending the money on until now! :wink:

You must have some app in mind that fits that description!

But then it would be nice to have an extended battery, for extended game play!! ;)

I find that carrying around an extra (regular size) battery for my 5555 gives me a great feeling of comfort, even though I rarely need to use it.

I skipped on the over size battery for my 4155, but bought the spare and a second cradle/power supply for work. Good investments IMO =)

Karina, why don't you post a list of the software on your PocketPC? Maybe there's a killer app you don't have! :)

Karin, that's a pretty complete list! Here's two application I recommend heartily. One is PocketPlayer from Conduits Software. It's a great mp3 player (I use it to play streaming radio stations).

Another is SPB Finance. I really like this finance application. It has a very clean interface and makes keeping up with my personal finances much easier. Whenever I pay for something in a store, I keep the receipt in the same pocket as my iPaq. That way, when I pull my iPaq out of my pocket, I remember to enter the receipt immediately.

By the way, does Mapopolis work with WM 2003?

For a utility, I recommend Resco Explorer 2003! (http://www.resco-net.com/pocketpc.asp)

You could also just treat yourself to some Ebooks!
