RhinoSkin Introduces Cases for Visor Edge
RhinoSkin has introduced four new cases designed specifically for the Handspring Visor Edge. These are Titanium and Aluminum Sliders and Molded Hardcases, similar to the ones just released for the m500 series. The Aluminum Molded Slider and Aluminum Molded Hardcase for the Edge cost $50. The Titanium versions of these two will retail for $100.
The all-Aluminum and Titanium Slider cases use the patented Slider rail design, allowing the top cover to slide under the bottom, creating a singular footprint. All function buttons and ports are uncovered for easy use while in the case with either left or right hand. The device is secured in the case by the pressure of the padding that fully lines the interior of the case. The top and bottom outer surfaces have lateral ribbed ridges for added strength and all the corners and edges have been rounded for easier handling.
The clamshell design of the all-Aluminum and Titanium Hardcases are form fit to the device and present an open book footprint.. The device is secured in the case with a bracket mounting system that the device slides into. This sled allows the device to swivel inside the case when open and acts as a shock absorbing mechanism if the case is dropped. The cases feature an internal closing latch, a contoured closure seam for easy stylus accessibility, and an interior fully padded with EVA/ Neoprene.
“The Edge has been a very popular device, but there have been few options for highly protective cases, until now,” says Mary Repke, Vice President Marketing at Saunders, maker of the Rhinoskin line. “With the addition of these new molded designed metal cases to our leather and synthetic cases currently available for the Edge, we give the Edge user the widest range of case options to choose from.”

When you find yourself in the company of a halfling and an ill-tempered Dragon, remember, you do not have to outrun the Dragon...you just have to outrun the halfling.
''Patented'' by Whom?
If this design is patented, it's not by Rhinoskin, or at least it shouldn't be. The Angel case by Okmik (?) for the Palm III was around a long time before the Rhino slder cases, and used exactly the same design, folding the front cover under the bottom on rails. I don't know what happened to Okmik, but his was one of the first alluminium cases for any Palm, and he should come out of hiding and sue the pants off of Rhino!

Handrra PLEASE?
Now I have a Handera and it lives inside my 3x Rhinoskin case. Works quite well as it fits fine and the stylus is accessible. But Handera users would benefit from a dedicated Rhinoskin case, since the current 3x case doesn't let you use the side buttons. This means voice-recording is too difficult to be worthwhile, as well as other negative implications.
