This model I like because it keeps the phone well protected, it is easy to retrieve it with one hand and to put it back in. I have tried several models of pouches for my Treo, and this one beats all the others hands down. It is also well constructed, the leather is both good looking and durable, and the belt clip is very sturdy and durable as well. Other models have serious safety issues for the phone tends to fall out or the clip breaks or loosens. Others are bulky and unconfortable and others are difficult to use with one hand. I have owned all other models, including the hard case, and this is by far the one I prefer. Highly recomended.
My stylus has fell from the palm several times now. My palm has not yet broken when this happens, nor has it dropped into water or snow. This is the basic "attach to your belt" case for a palm treo shaped device.One complaint is that it can come off your belt fairly easily. So far it fell in my home or office, where I later located it. But the potential is there. So you need to be careful when wearing it.The second complaint is that the case provides no protection for your stylus. But eventually it will fall while "out in the world" and that will be it.For the price paid, not bad. But it's nothing special.
I expected this to have a pocket on the inside as mentioned in several of the reviews. Also there is logo on the outside which is also unexpected based on the picture.
I am very happy with my pouch. The only criticism I have is that the shipping was little high. I paid 4.99 for the pouch and 4.99 for the shipping. I think the shipping could have been 50% less.
The original one seems more expensive, more luxurious, by comparison.In short, the case is functional, but its not as good as the original version of this product was. It seems cheaper that the original one.
It lasted about eighteen months before the leather around the clip finally began to tear, making the clip's hold on the case tenuous at best. So I gladly bought a replacement.At first glance, the new pouch looks the same.
I owned one of these previously, and was very happy with it. In effect, the case is functionally the same as the original one I had.But you know, I finally figured out why I don't like it.
The problem with the clip tearing away from the pouch has been addressed - that part of the case has been reworked and reinforced with a thicker piece of leather - you can now slide the case onto your belt instead of clipping it to your belt.The case seems a little larger that the original - My Treo seems to slide a little from front to back. The interior of the case still has a snapped cover concealing storage compartments for three memory cards.
The interior is made out of some kind of fabric and there's a puffy feel to the leather exterior, almost as if the leather is sown on top of a cushion. However, ots still better than anything else I've found on the market to date.
