the purpose of a case is all about protecting a pda. How should buy a case that has a loose fit???

Way too nitpicky of a review

And why didn't you also complain that it didn't come in your mom's favorite color?

I'm sorry but a case should never have a reset button hole. It is supposed to protect the device. If the Palm crashes, you can pull it out of the case and reset it. The vast majority of Palm users don't even know there is a reset hole on their devices.

As far as too loose, that is incredibaly subjective -- espically for a stitched case. Since there is pull and wear from the factory floor to your hand, no one can control that material with a tolerance down to the millimeter.

Please chill!

I love it when people who give advice actually follow it themselves. :)

I thought the review provided some good info, kind of what I'd get if I asked a friend how they liked a product.

In regards to fit, a product like this can be too tight, just right, or too loose. Most manufacturers make something like this a little snug to make up for production variances and stretching, so I would not expect a stitched leather case to be loose on day one either.

Wow............ I had to reset my palm several times within the first month that I used it. I thank my lucky stars that I knew where the reset button was (ahem)

Well, unlike the previous posters, I think you did a great review. I'm shopping around for cases for my SJ30, but unfortunately for me I don't like the design or price of this case. Great review anyhow.

I found your review very detailed despite what others say. As a consumer, I'd like to know exactly what I am paying for and then decide whether it is worth it or not...and in your opinion...it is!!

I will definitely check out covertec. Thank you!

Good Review - Nice Case

Great review! It's nice to see someone that is detail oriented and honest about their review. I know we can review it, and make our asessment on the case whether we would buy it or not. I say continue to be detail oriented (nit picky), and let the ball roll where it may. Thanks for you input :) and keep up the great work Palminfocenter!
