Proporta Dell Axim Aluminium Case (Neoprene While you Wait)
"Proporta is due to release a smart aluminium case early in the the new year. Made of aircraft grade aluminium it will include all usual features of our other aluminium cases, such as those for the iPAQ Series, PEG-T Series, and m5xx Series. If you place your order now, not only will you be one of the first people to recieve this stylish new case, but we will send you one of our sporty protective neoprene cases to use while you await delivery."
"The even better part is that when we ship you're aluminium case to you, you're free to keep the neoprene case. As always, Proporta's never argue money back guaruntee covers this offer, so if you're not completley satisfied you can return both cases for a full refund."
As an Axim owner myself who has yet to find a case that doesn't add huge bulk, this looks very interesting!

Re: Proporta Dell Axim Aluminium Case (Neoprene While you Wait)
For whatever it's worth, i used the wetsuit for years with my notebook computers until they weren't made anymore - and even then i bought some more - these things were neoprene (hence the name) and really did a great job of protecting my notebooks while allowing their use - they had elastic straps that went over the bottom front corners and the top front corners, and stayed in place while having a bit of elasticity. i didn't even know there were neoprene cases for today's pdas, and i really like my leather case (3 years, 2 pdas and still going strong - but the dreaded velcro - ack!) - anyway, i doubt i would want an aluminum case, but my prior experience with neoprene was all good - just my 2 cents worth...
