SJ33 Flip cover issues

[E30Ernest]

I noticed the sj33's flip cover has begun to scratch my handheld... do any other sj33 owners experience this? I just took it off to minimize scratching.

Where was it scratching your Clie ? I haven't noticed any scratches with mine.

At the rim where the flip cover contacts the handheld. I had to take off mine to prevent those scratches. The scratches look ugly given my handheld is only 2 weeks old and I never keep it in my pocket.

MY 33 has 2 little rubber bumpers at the bottom that stop the cover from scratching the unit

Hmm I checked mine carefully (it's about 5 weeks old now) & there are no scratches at all along the edges. *shrug*

I remember when I had my SJ33 that the flip cover DOES give scratches to the silver "metal" part... particularly along the edges. I kept mine in a pocket.

So does mine but it doesn't seem to keep the flip from scratching the silver part...:(

I have the scratches along the edge under the edge of the flip cover (in spite of the "rubber" thingies, and multiple scratches on the outside of the cover itself. I write them off to my Clie being a hard worker that's used well!

I have the same problem with my Tg50

small scratches. I think I got these when I used to slap the flip lid shut with one hand. now I resort to gently closing the flip lid.
