Lost my NX wrist strap

[Eclipse]

Anyone wish to send me their NX tassel :D, mine broke and my handheld looks naked.

[Alistar]

Sorry I use mine all the time.
I feel much safer when I use it.

[qgent]

Sorry I wish I could help but that's my safety line, don't want to drop it like I did with Visor pro. at a cost of $85. with sony it could be $250.00

Wow, I can't believe there's 3 people that use that thing. We had a thread about this several months ago, and I don't remember anyone saying they used it.

[leung]

i use it too, for safety purpose

Use a rubber band!

I threw mine away, it kept getting snagged on things :)

[Tantric]

I use it.. reluctantly, but I use it.

[qwertyuiop]

I can't believe there is a WHOLE website donated to Lanyards...sheesh!

Mine is sitting in the box. I look at it now and then and wonder if I should use it, then think NO. It's yours if you want it. Email me your address, fivedimegill(remove this part)@msn.com .

I have a silly question on this, how do you attach it? I never figured that out yet.

Thanks

[MFK]

Do not worry, just buy a new NX70V. It is cheap now :)

Thanks There's a silver "slot" on the top right hand. Slip it through there.

If I knew where mine was, y'could have it.

I suppose I'd freeek if I dropped Fred, but the lanyard's just screams NERD and that counters the Clie's sexiness too much.

i do not want my nz90 to be crabed when i am taking photos on street.

Wait.... you mean the NX70v comes with a wrist strap?

(big wink)
;)

[muldermx]

why are lanyards called lanyards?

[gyffes]

'Cause if they called 'em "bracelets" Manly Men would refuse to use 'em and then all those military applications would suffer...

[muldermx]

yeah but whats the meaning ? what did it come from?

Mine is still in the box. I currently use a lanyard that came with my Sony cellphone. It's alot longer so I can ware it around my neck and place the PDA in my shirt pocket. I can't count how many times it saved my PDA.

hherbzilla gets the prize :) If there were a prize....

Yeah...only the COOL people use their lanyards....:D

When I got my NX60 a few weeks ago the lanyard looked like it was headed to the trash can.

Out of curiosity I went ahead and attached it and wouldn't be without it! Only problem I'm having with it is that the cats think it is a toy; awfully expensive cat toy!

[markgm]

I used it for a few months, but then it was causing more accidents then it was worth! (I'd take it off my desk and the lanyard was shut in the drawer and I'd drop it, but the lanyard would catch it.)

[Orincarnia]

the only reason i don't use my lanyard is one i lost it, and two it looks like a womans pda when i have it attached, i've noticed that every woman that has a cell or pda has a cord hanging off it, but no guy does, and i always thought i could have the phone and clie at the end of lanyards and would look cool but whenever i put the phone to my head it looked like i was shifting long hair to my back like a woman would to get her hair out of her ear.......that looks bad when a guy does that. and the lanyard on the clie made it too easy for someone to swipe it out of my pocket

i can't keep the lanyard attached to my arm 24/7 and if i do remember to put it on my hand i'll drop it if i do put it on my wrist
