New Case (The Right Choice)

[Wayne_J_Gilbert]

I just purchased this case for my new SJ20 Clie and I was wondering if I made the right choice?

A lot of people like the DSI, or it's nearest rival, the Innopocket aluminum case. The DSI gets good reviews and seems to be well made.

The only real test, however, is your satisfaction rating when you get it. Based on other posts, I bet you'll like it but the question we cannot answer is whether it fits into your lifestyle, tastes, and usage.

Well, I've always found that the soft-sided, zippered cases work best for me. The case itself can absorb minor impacts and the zipper will keep out dust and water.

And they're cheap--usually about $15 or less.

The soft case was the reason I had to replace my trusty old S320. Super cracked screen. I just purchased an SJ20 waiting for the case and clie to arrive later next week. Thanks for the replies :)

I have the DSI case for my SJ30 and I love it. It is lightweight and well made. It is comfortable to use. The only complaint that I have is that it is difficult to get the stylus out of its slot with the case open. If you close the case it is no problem. It isn't a deal breaker, just can be annoyning sometimes. I usually use a pen/stylus combo anyway.

Hope you like the new case.

I never used the stylus that came with the Clie. The Avery Double Click is what i've used for the longest. Staples usually has them for under $5.00

Fair enough. The soft case can only absorb minor impacts. If your PDA is going to be taking hard hits, like being in a backpack, then a metal case is definitely the way to go.

I've had my PDA in a soft case for three years and it has not suffered any damage at all. Knock wood.
