Otherwise I could not carry my Palm with me. This case keeps it safe. If you beat your Palm up, this is the best. Mine kicks around in rucksacks, gun bags, etc.
The price can't be beat either. It opens easily when you press in on the correct side (side w/ arrow), yet after two months of use, it has never popped open on it's own while tumbling around in my purse. If you feel strongly about it, all you would have to do is put something between the back of the case and the Palm to lift the Palm out of the case and hold it's weight while the charging cord is plugged in. If you are left handed, holding the Palm in your right hand, I'm sure you could just leave the front hanging open rather than fold it all the way back.I don't take it out of the case to charge.
After comparing and reading reviews on several different cases for my Palm Tungsten E2, I decided to order this hard case. I had looked around at a few stores for a case before purchasing this one, but couldn't find one I liked. I sync using a bluetooth connection, so no longer use the sync cord.Overall I am very happy with my purchase, and highly recommend this case to anyone wanting the ultimate protection for their Palm. My husband has the case which has access ports for the SC card, charging port, headphone port, sync port, etc, but I felt that those openings would not protect my Palm in my purse, as small things could easily poke into those openings (nail file, pens, etc).
Despite some people being worried about damage to the charging cord with the weight of the Palm resting on the cord while still in the case, I don't feel it is an issue. A few weeks after I purchased this one, I saw the same one in a store, and it was priced at over $40. Besides, my husband actually lost an SD card out of his Palm because of those openings.Since protection was my #1 priority, this case fills that requirement perfectly. The front flips all the way around against the back, so it is easy to hold in your left hand while writing with your right.
The only disadvantage to it is that it no longer fits in the slot in my purse organizer. This metal case will serve me well in keeping the Palm Pilot safe. Otherwise, it is a great product. My original case for the Tungsten E finally split apart. I am pretty hard on products like this and carrying it in my purse without a cover was just not a good option.
Otherwise very sturdy and reliable protective case. The only drawback is when charging the unit, the case has to be open and the palm charging adapter rests on the edge of the case. Excellent protective case for Palm device. Very convenient and user friendly for storage of up to 2 SD cards and palm.
However, if going to use in briefcase or purse, hard cover would replace the soft cover which comes with, and would give more protection to handheld. So, didn't use hard cover. Have to take off soft cover that comes with tungsten 2 to use this hard cover case which my husband (for whom I bought these items) didn't want to do. Soft cover which comes with t2 makes for a smaller item to put in his pocket and protects face of handheld sufficiently.
