A Big Disappointment

I just got my new pda, Palm TX, today. It came with this hard case which is very hard, inside and out.

I spent a few minutes trying to open it. And once it was open I spend a few minutes trying to close it. This not good.

There are 2 slot inside for expansion cards. I like that. However, there are no openings in the case for accessing the expansion slots, headphone jack, sync and charger ports.

In the spine of the case is a rib for sliding the TX into so that it can be securely held. In the case, my TX moves like a page in a book. Also the spine of the case is hinged so that it can folded back like you might do a magazine. This makes it seem a bit flimsy and cheaply made.

Overall, I think it will protect my pda from the elements. However, I am not sure the manufacturer thought about it being user friendly.
