good tough case | ||||

| This case seems thick and tough, though this adds some bulk. The holster is convenient to use, and may or may NOT be as tough as the case, as it is very light. The screen is protected by a clear plastic window which flips up. Some users may not care for this feature (especially after the plastic gets scratched up), but it is removable. The screen faces out in the holster, allowing "caller ID" in telephone use. The SD card cannot be changed without taking the Treo completely out of the case. This is a disadvantage, but the skins WITH cutouts for the card are quite compromised in terms of fit. And at least the card is protected! The skin fits quite snugly and is very secure while allowing access to nearly every feature of the Treo. (The keyboard is not protected but is very accessible.) The fit is MUCH better than the "thin" skin elsewhere in the Treonaut store. | |||||

| I've had this case for two weeks now, and I love it. In my line of work treos don't last long in my work enviroment. I think I have got to be the roughest individual on this type of equipment, and this Speck works absolutely wonderful. If your constantly changing SD cards, or in need of the IR port, this may not be a good choice for you. But, from a rugged stand point? this case is the bomb... | |||||

Bad over time |

| This started out as the perfect case. All of Speck's material are the same even if the outside looks different from model to model. I'll start off with the pros. It's light, thin, and has a good grip. The screen protection is perfect, allowing you to use the touch screen and close it to protect it. Makes you look like Captain Kirk when you're using it flipped out. ;) What was disturbing over time was the fit of the case. Either moisture from my hands and pockets are getting into the tiny pockets in the material or my treo has shrunk! I think the rubber gave out its' form over time. I bought my brother one and his is having the same problem. What I'm left with now after 6 months of use is a case that is 3/4 a centimeter loose on all sides. Leaving the cutout not fitting and the plastic screen riding up to scrap the chrome surface of the phone. | |

Great case at a Great Value | ||||

| I've had this case for almost 3 weeks now and I love it. It works well for protection if you drop the Treo or it gets away from you. It also makes the Treo alot more comfortable in your hand when working with it. The fact that the SD card slot is covered is a good thing- mine pops out alot without the case from being pushed in and if I lose a 4GB card that wouldnt be a good thing. I wish the IR port wasn't covered, but you can't have "everything" LOL My advice is to get a big enough SD card so you won't have to worry about changing them and to use the Hot-sync cable vs. a card reader for putting stuff on your card- problem solved. My only gripe, really, is that the window provided for screen protection isn't secured as well as it could be and pops open from time to time and I've lost it a couple times so far...and the last thing I have to say is that the case and the holster still fit and work together after adding the 3200 extended battery that sticks out an addittional 3mm with the new cover it comes with. | |||||

True...it's bad over time... :-( | ||||

| My opinion's mostly the same as the other user who found the same problems with this case. The wheel-look that it gives actually makes it a lot easier for me to handle the phone in one hand, grip it, and be able to do tons of things without worrying about slippage. Also, it protects the phone real well against falls and scratches. The screen protector does make it feel high-techy, and does protect the screen well. Cons? Quite a few, actually. The case, being sturdy and all, does its job too well that it's hard to take out the SD Card if you need to, not to mention nullifying the phone's ability to use the IR Port. The screen protector's little notch to latch on the rubber lock and hold it in place does tend to break easily. Lastly, and the biggest disappointment in this skin is that it loses its shape in time. Now I have slack on the bottom of the phone which makes it look "cheap" and ugly. If not for that big fault, I would have actually given this case 4 stars! | |||||
