Beltclip
belt clip is fine!
Why would you WANT a belt clip???
1. Easy to steal; a theif just grabs it and runs.
2. Your arm will keep brushing against it as it sticks out from your belt.
3. Too easy to drop.
4. Additional, unnecessary cost of the belt clip.
5. Just what ARE you using your front left pants pocket for anyway?
My Palm V has been in my left front pocket since I bought it and there's no problem at all. It avoids every problem listed above. Seems a no-brainer!

How do you think I lost my Palm3 ?
Love my E&B swivel leather belt case!
Palm Owners Against Ugliness
High Geek Factor/High Availability Factor
and a half now and, with the exception of the velcro
starting to peel off, I'm completly happy with it.
I use the belt-loop instead of the clip as I find it
secure.
The only down side it the high geek factor
but, hey, even that's cool these days.
Belt case is a must

Belt carrying case
1-No case, just put it in your Shirt pocket- It will take a week, Max, before it tumbles out.
2-Pants pocket- You got a bulge where you don,t want to have a bulge. At least for all the wrong reasons.
3-Purse- Now which purse that I put that in?
4-Leather portfolio, Planner size-OK if you prefer to always have something in your hand.
5-Small leather portfolio which slips into a coat pocket. OK if you are ALWAYS wearing a jacket.
6-Palm leather belt clip case-If it doesn't swivel, it wont be long before it breaks AND the fit is so tight, it's frustrating to get the unit out.
7-All other cases-Have pluses and minuses.
Which are my recommended cases:
1-The Covertec case with a snap in module similar to the ones used by cell phones. This case has a large opening with an sturdy elastic strap which securily straps in the Palm. I have used mine for the last 3 years. Since it also swivels, it is great when sitting down, especially in a car. I NEVER dropped it when either putting it in or taking it out of the case because of it's large opening. The unit is available through mail order at widget.com. The site is out of the UK but there is a Canadin site linked to it. The US site seems to have gone under. Cost $49.00 Cdn, about $30.00 US
2-E&B case. I just ordered one for the Palm Vx, from PalmGear.com, looks great but I have not yet received it.
A BELT CARRYING CASE IS THE BEST WAY TO GO!
