Used a Treo 700wx with this designed for 650 and LOVE it
User: Jessica Hellard, Jan 22, 2008
Pros:
Leather stretches to fit cards/etc, GREAT protection while functional, Looks great and is SUPER convenient
Cons:
Possibility of the magnet not working later on (easily fixed with velcro)
I got this one instead of the one for the 700wx because the dimensions are the same but this one is cheaper and I think I thought the stylus holder would be cool.
The 700wx fits extremely well in it, its tight to get in but that just means it wont slide out by accident or by force (I tried hard and it wouldnt come out that way) the idea is to use the phone while its in the case. The leather doesnt cover the 700wx buttons. The case closes very well without stuff in it and is fine with stuff in it as well. With stuff in it you have to make sure the magnet touches solidly to get it to connect securely but once thats done its a very strong connection. I can see the possibility of the magnet going, but in that case I plan to just replace it with velcro.
The leather pockets do stretch well to fit stuff in it. With only a tiny bit of work I have gotten the two sd cards I have (one of which is a wifi card that sticks up a bit higher and still is protected) to fit in properly the first time. They are in there pretty good so they wont slide out. The wifi card is easy to get in and out, the other is a bit harder but that side still needs to stretch a bit. I put a drivers license in and a credit card in the slots and it took a bit extra work to get them to fit all the way in the first time but once the leather has stretched a bit Im sure it will work fine. The stylus holder is pretty useless. I can easily access the stylus while its in the case and putting it in the stylus holder makes it really hard to close.
One of the best parts about this case is its protection. The surrounding outside is leather but has hard casing inside the leather. This means that it has protection from dropping while still being very functional. Other cases often dont have good corner protection but this one at every corner (Even the top) has a hard sturdy piece of the case protecting it. The only parts that could hit the ground without protection are the antenna and the stylus holder corner.
All in all, it looks great, is very functional (camera/stylus/ports/sd/infra/and silencer are available while its in the case) AND it protects very well while cutting down on luggage you carry around with you during short trips. Whether running to the store, picking up family members, going to the soccer game, or going downtown, you only need to bring the one thing now. For other excursions youll probably still have to bring your wallet because it doesnt hold everything but this is really great for convenience.
