PalmOne Tungsten W/i705 Slim Leather Carrying Case

PalmOne Tungsten W/i705 Slim Leather Carrying Case
  • Designed to complement the clean, sleek design of the Palm i705 handheld
  • Made from premium leather
  • Three slots for business and credit cards
  • Inside pocket for cash or notes
  • Storage for expansion cards; sturdy loop closure

There's nothing really WRONG with this case, other than Palm's calling it "slim" it isn't. There is a rigid spine coming out from the back of the case at the end of this spine is a flexible connector where you attach the i705. At least in the one I have, this spine is so tall that it adds a good quarter inch or more of wasted depth to the hinge side of the assembled unit it looks "dorky".

I'm also not a fan of the strap and loop closure mechanism that Palm likes to put on its cases. Also, it is difficult to put your i705 in its cradle when in this case.

On the other hand, the leather is nice, it does hold four memory cards (in slots behind the i705) and can also hold three credit cards and some bills behind a flap. It also should do a good job of protecting the i705 in your pocket.

I would say that the primary advantage of this case is that you can buy it now look for other Palm accessory makers to chime in with their own cases soon some already have.

The leather is nice ... and the places to hold expansion cards is nice ... but ...

What is not nice is the size of this unit ... it protects tha palm ok ... but in doing so makes the case bulky ... it takes a rather slim i705 and makes it big and bulky ... there had to be something better in the design minds out there ... something leather that is half the weight and size ... and something you dont have to take the cover off every time you put it in its cradle ...

Kensington SaddleBag 64079 Carrying Case - Backpack - Handle, Shoulder Strap, Backpack - 1 Pocket -

Kensington SaddleBag 64079 Carrying Case - Backpack - Handle, Shoulder Strap, Backpack - 1 Pocket - Nylex - Black
  • Includes one notebook computer case
  • one detachable shoulder strap.

I've had this bag for several years now, and I really like it. It is very well made. I'm not exactly easy on my bags, but I can barely even see any scuff marks on it. One of the best features of this bag is it's pockets. In the picture you can see the zipper pocket in front. What you cannot see is the ticket pocket that is located just under the zipper for easy access. Also the main compartment is separated into a fuzzy laptop section (15 inch) and a large area that can fit a couple of college textbooks. In the front is an organizer section that has more pockets than I know what to do with (holds my large calculator, camera, batteries, chargers, many pens, pencils, etc with room left over), and an open mesh pock in front of that for easy access.

While it tends to look more like a briefcase than a backpack, you can use it as either. I got this bag so that I could have one bag for both school and formal meetings. I've found that it works well for both.

I'm not sure why the picture looks blue, the bag is really several shades of black, very formal looking.

Gomadic Brand Horizontal Black Leather Carrying Case for the Palm palm Tungsten C with Integrated Be

Gomadic Brand Horizontal Black Leather Carrying Case for the Palm palm Tungsten C with Integrated Belt Loop and Optional Belt Clip
  • Constructed of premium black leather, this slim fitting and classically designed carrying case will fit any clothing style or fabric.
  • Case dimensions are sized to accommodate 122.1 x 78.5 x 16.9 mm . A perfect fit for the Palm palm Tungsten C.
  • Detachable belt clip can be used as a carrying option. Case also has an integrated belt loop to provide a second alternative.
  • Cutouts on both the sides and bottom of the case provide access to critical device controls and ease of removal.
  • Case provides functionality with a streamlined shape. A great look for both casual or business setting.

I bought this for my husband because I bought him a new PDA for Valentine's Day this year. The belt clip broke after about two weeks, however he did not return it because he still found it functional without. Not made too well.

I got one of these. It is bigger than advertised--my Tungsten rattled around inside this case. The stylus fell out easily. Gomadic sent two more cases trying to find one that fit better. I ended up returning all of them since none fit well, so I cannot recommend this particular product (0 stars). However, Gomdadic went overboard trying to make me happy. I recommend them without any hesitation (5 stars).

Other than the size issue, it was a fairly nice case--high quality vinyl or heavily "tanned" leather (not sure which). Workmanship seemed fine.

Zagg LEATHERskin for iPad 2, Authentic Black (FGLSLTHSCBLK97)

Zagg LEATHERskin for iPad 2, Authentic Black
  • Improves grip.
  • Easy to remove, leaving no sticky residue.
  • Genuine leather.

The skin is probably fine. Beware however or this particular seller: wrong product code is listed and wrong product will be sent to you.

Zagg LEATHERskin for iPad 2, Authentic Black(FGLSLTHSCBLK97)is not cut for iPad2, but for iPad, and it is clearly stated on the package. If you need skin for iPad2 look for Zagg LEATHERskin for iPad 2, Authentic Black, product code LSLTHSCBLK97. Good luck!

I like the feel and look for the Zagg Leatherskin. It lets you have a nice grip on the iPad 2. It was easy to put on after reading others and took extra time and care to make sure the fit and look was right. Got it on the first time with success! The only drawback is that the leatherskin makes the iPad 2 now unable to be charged in the cradle. You can use the regular charge with it thou.

Fantastic, durable cover. Matches beautifully with the leather smart cover. Installation was simple. This is, however, a thicker cover than the traditional Zagg skins. It adds 1/8" thickness to the iPad. Not a big deal unless you have a hard shell case that you want to continue to use. The one that I have won't fit with the LEATHERskin on my iPad.

PalmOne HotSync Serial Cradle (m125, m130, i705, Tungsten & m500 series)

PalmOne HotSync Serial Cradle
  • Quickly synchronizes information in your handheld to your desktop computer
  • One-touch HotSync button performs synchronization
  • For PC or Macintosh with serial port
  • Compatible with Palm m125, m130, i705, and m500 series handhelds

With the introduction of the new Palm m50x series, Palm needed to make a whole different type of "universal connector." With this new "universal connector," we get a new fangled cradle.

Palm's explanation for a new cradle and a new connector was to give true USB support to the cradle. Let's not forget that we'll have to buy all new accessories to cater to the new "universal connector." The question I ask is "Is it new functionality, or new sales they're after?"

Enough about my rant on the universal connector. Let's get to the cradle itself. It's different that the Palm V cradle (I compare it to the Palm V cradle since the m50x series is just following in the footsteps of that series.). First, it isn't slide in and out, like the old cradle. To take the Palm out, you have to lift up, then pull vertically up. To put it in, you have to put it in vertically, fumble around a bit, then once you hear the Palm beep, you can nestle it back in the cradle.

For people who don't know about the above process, I'm guessing you're going to break your Palm, so be warned.

Once you get the process down, it actually becomes second nature. Granted, I think it's a cumbersome process, but the unit stays in the cradle securely.

One issue that made me knock this cradle down to three stars (and this could be in conjunction with the Palm itself) but sometimes the unit doesn't charge fully in the cradle. You place the Palm in the cradle, the Palm makes the beep, and you think you're charging, right? You take it out th enext morning, go to work, and then you notice that your battery indicator is still int he same position. What's up with that? I've discovered that for the unit to fully charge (and sometimes HotSync correctly), you have to make sure the connection to the cradle is flush.

The product does give USB support, so the cradle does have a functionality. For me, personally, I wish Palm didn't have to give us a new "universal connector" every couple of years...

Buy PalmOne HotSync Serial Cradle (m125, m130, i705, Tungsten & m500 series) Now

I bought this cradle because I have to leave the USB cradle that came with my Palm M515 at the office. I chose a serial cradle for two reasons: all of my USB ports are filled at home and this cradle was significantly cheaper than a USB model.

I find that the cradle is quite a bit slower. This would be a problem if I did as many Hotsync operations at home as I do at the office. Since I only sync at home to updat my AvantGo data and to re-charge my Palm,this cradle works fine.

If you need a cradle for a situation similar to mine, don't waste your money on the more expensive USB model unless you're really impatient.

there's a known problem with the USB cradles that they are extra sensitive to Electro Static Discharge. I fries both the cradle and sometimes the handheld (cooked my M515 yesterday for the second time). Look up Palm USB ESD on Google... Palm is going to replace my handheld again. The serial version of this cradle does not have this issue. If you ask Palm about getting a serial cradle back instead of USB they state you have to buy one.

Want PalmOne HotSync Serial Cradle (m125, m130, i705, Tungsten & m500 series) Discount?

The cradle is very finicky. The fit is not very tight and I have to press down on the top of the palm pilot to ensure the contacts are touching. Plus, it has it's own power plug AND the USB connection. I'd recommend the USB cable instead. It connects snugly, easily and is only one thing to plug in, plus very reliable long term. Charges fast too. This cradle just fell short all the way around.

This little device is the most sold out product in every store in the Silicon Valley. Without it you cannot sync your new Palm to Windows NT.

NT is fairly happy with it, aside from the SLOW sync rate which makes sync happy web clippings crawl, but it does its job to the best of its ability.

Franklin Covey Palm V Binder Attachment

Franklin Covey Palm V Binder Attachment
  • Fits Franklin Planner pocket, Compact, Classic, and Monarch binders
  • Secures Palm V to the rings of your Franklin Covey binder
  • Ultrathin, attractive design
  • Includes an extra stylus slot
  • Provides added protection for your Palm V organizer

It's advertised as fitting all the different sizes of Franklin planners. Yes, it probably fits all the hole patterns, but in the Pocket size planner the Palm sticks out of the planner cover about a half inch. Not an ideal application. Plus the cost is a bit ridiculous; fifteen bucks for this little piece of molded plastic? Get real!

Badgy card printer

Badgy card printer
  • Badgy is a complete solution to print your own pla
  • Identification-card-printers
  • Black Ink Tank CLI-221
  • Badgy makes it easy to custom-design your own cards and print them in just a few seconds with photo-quality resolution

Cute gizmo, but nowhere does it warn you that 1. this is Windows only printer driver (no Mac, and no Linux support), and 2. you must have MS Excel in order to use their "software" which is nothing more than excel template with macros. Laaaame.

Not to mention, I shelled out $80 for expedited shipping (1-3 business days) on Friday evening, and it arrived after COB on Wednesday. Perhaps barely meets that definition, but disappointed nonetheless. To top it off, the price was reduced $200 within 4 days of my order.

Print quality is acceptable (not fantastic) on the sample cards included. However, I needed to print onto proximity enabled cards which are about 2x thicker and the print was terrible. It skipped a spot (probably where the RFID chip is embedded) and the whole card was glazed in yellow. Complete fail.

This was such a problem solver. BIG time problem solver.

During a custom executive conference room build out, I installed a power/data hub on the meeting room table; a really nice table. This included drilling a 3&3/8" hole in the center of the table. Should have double tested the power/data hub's USB ports to be sure they could power/charge a iPhone or iPad. They couldn't due to the devices needing either a data signal or data line short to allow them to charge.

I considered trying to customize the power/data hub and had many problems to overcome.

I searched on Google many different ways "iPhone will not charge from USB hub" or "iPad charging problems with USB power..." and not a single time did any of the devices of this type show up.

The only reason I knew what to look for is an e-mail received from a vendor highlighting a similar product.

If you need to charge a iOS device and cannot due to similar situation, this is the solution.

I ordered 3 on the first order. I just ordered 2 more.

  • Brand new high quality snap-on Protector case
  • Covers the phone completely, without blocking any functionality of the phone
  • Long lasting, durable & water resistant
  • Compatible with models: Apple iPod Touch 2nd Generation ONLY

i got this case about a week ago and have been using it on my itouch 3g and i cant get over how great it feels. it has a nice smooth flat black finish that feels great though if you have greasy fingers like from pizza it leaves a shiny mark on it but it whipes off with ease though u should have clean hands when using your ipod anyways. overall this is one of the best cases ive used and for the price its way worth it and the shipping was great too it came nicely wrapped and took like less than 4 days to get to my house.

In the picture it appears as though there are little slits on the edges to help the case fit the ipod, but there are none. The case fits perfectly without compromising the integrity of the product with flimsy slitted edges. The material is great, non-slip, and has a great price. If for some reason I need a new case, I am going to get this same one again. I would recommend it for anyone who has a second or third generation iPod.

This case is not the same as in the picture. It is a snap on easy breakable "hard" case but it will work. However if you are wanting a case as the picture shows this is not for you. It's kinda how on TV fast food looks good but when you go to get it from the actual store it looks and taste nasty. In other words, false advertisment.

Want SF Planet® Apple iPod Touch 2nd Gen Black Back Snap-On Slim Rubberized Cover Hard Case Protector Discount?

Fast shipping--received it in only 4 days! Love the look and feel of this case and that it doesn't add any bulk to the iPod Touch 3rd gen. The one I received does not look like the picture, which I believe is another positive. Mine doesn't have any of the edge slits nor the oval cutout for the antenna cover, which isn't necessary anyway and will be more protective. I've tried the hard, transparent plastic cases but found it can be hard or impossible to connect some cables with those, and they don't stay snapped together when dropped on hard floors. So, I'm giving this 4.5 stars because it hasn't been through the drop test yet, so I don't know how much protection it will provide. Worth the money so far, and no more fingerprints or scratches on that shiny, silver Apple back!

This case is great. It snaps on easily and snaps off with no hassle, so you dont spend a lot of time putting it on or taking it off. The rubberized back is great: its smooth enough to feel good in your hand, but has enouch grip to stay put and not slide around. Easy access to all ports and buttons, simple yet effective design. very lightweight plastic, yet sturdy enough to last a long time. Adds barely any bulk to the actual ipod, so that its relatively the same size and weight. Only problem would be that it doesnt protect the front at all. however, iv been using it for several months now and if you just get a screen protecter, itll work fine. Overall, its a great lightweight case that serves it purpose.

Serial Adapter - Plug-in Module - Compactflash Card - RS-232 - 921 Kbps

Serial Adapter - Plug-in Module - Compactflash Card - RS-232 - 921 Kbps
  • Works in the CompactFlash slot of Pocket PCs, Windows CE-based PCs, and Handheld PC Pros
  • Acts like a Windows COM port
  • Compatible with external high-speed modems
  • 115.2 Kbps

I purchased this to connect a Dell PDA to a Raven GPS system. It works very well for this combination. I have also purchased a "non-ruggedized version," and I wouldn't recommend it unless absolutely necessary. It is little more flimsy in the connection between the cable and the CF card, and extra care needs to be taken when handling the "non-ruggedized" version. Overall, I am very pleased with this product.

We have been trying to use the I/O card with a Jornada 548 with Fowler Gages' digital calipers and Taltech's CE-Wedge software. We were warned by Socket Communications that there was a potential problem with freezing up if the serial com port was not turned off before turning off the computer. Based on this, we purchased the card and were careful not to do this, but found that after 1-3 hours of work, the computer froze up to the point that we needed to remove the battery to get it to turn off. Based on this with 2 computers, we do not recommend the combination. Socket agrees that there is a problem with the driver, but has no plans to make any changes. Suggests using a Compaq IPAQ instead.

UB KOOL, Handheld Personal Mini Cooler &Warmer

UB KOOL, Handheld Personal Mini Cooler &WarmerIt was really hot in Paris when we were there in August. I'm utterly certain that I never would have made it through the Versailles Palace tour still on my feet (over 100°, no A/C, airless stuffy old rooms, literally packed in elbow-to-elbow with other hot sweaty/sticky bodies) without this special aid. It is a battery-operated wand that instantly becomes ice-cold when you turn it on, and I could rub it over my face, neck, wrists, etc. It was a real life-saver. Well, a consciousness-saver, anyway. I came dangerously close to fainting, and this device saved me. (Dangerous not because fainting would be life-threatening, but because I would have missed my once-in-a-lifetime tour, which would be worse, right?)

Actually, as a medical student, I know that heatstroke really is life-threatening and that this device is capable of lowering body temperature enough to save a life if consistently applied over various areas of an overheated person's body.

I used it constantly throughout the entire trip, and I don't know what I would have done without it. I have been extremely sensitive to heat all my life (in spite of always having lived in Phoenix AZ!) and faint when I become overheated. So this product is truly a godsend. I have never found anything else that works nearly so well and is also portable and I've tried everything, including various gadgets and vests which cost up to $200. At 1/100th of the price, this is far better.

I used it so much I wore out the motor and am ordering a new one (in fact, I'm ordering 2 just in case I have difficulty finding another when I wear the new one out.) Believe me, it got plenty of very heavy usage before the motor gave out. I definitely got my money's worth. Please, please don't ever stop making these!

My old one didn't have the heating feature, but I am not interested in that and will probably never use it. The UB-Kool is well worth the price for the cooling feature alone.

(BTW, I have no affiliation with any company which sells or manufactures this product, nor do I receive any compensation for reviewing it. My rave review is the sincere opinion of a highly satisfied ordinary customer.)

This little guy works pretty well. The battery door is a little fragile so hopefully it doesn't break.

Buy UB KOOL, Handheld Personal Mini Cooler &Warmer Now

I thought this item would transmit the heat/cooling by air flow, rather than by actual contact. That is the primary feature i was looking for cool air blower. The discharge air from this devise is the hot air exhaust from the cooler.

Works pretty good. I still have the original spot cooler with the blue ball but it didn't have the heating feature so I couldn't resist getting the combined heating/cooling model. Very good-uses batteries up like crazy but I still thing it's worth it!

This does not all over cool like a fan or fan with mist; nither which work well in the HOT HUMID heat of north Ga. The heat really bothers me and it does not take much for me to come close to heat exhaustion or heat stroke. So though this does not cool me like I jumped into a lake; putting on my pulse points, and even on bare feet, it cools me some and brings my body temp down, fast, to where I feel better and am safe. As to the heat part, if you have ever gotten you gloves wet with slushy cold snow you know what that does to your hands and putting them in front of the car heater vent does not help your hands fast enough., this helps to speed that hand thawing along.

Pandigital PANSCN01 PhotoLink Mini Scanner -Black

Pandigital PANSCN01 PhotoLink Mini Scanner -Black
  • Scan Images Up to 4x6
  • 6-in-1 Card Reader, 300 dpi
  • Connect to Digital Photoframe
  • up to 1800x1200 resolution

When I saw this product it struck me as a wonderful item. I could rapidly scan all of my old photos and not take days doing it. I read reviews where people reported white lines appearing on the scanned photos. Well, mine did have them. There was no rhyme or reason to it either. I could scan a photo and not have any lines in it, then scan it again and have 1 line, 4 lines. I never knew what it was going to do. I did follow the instructions and calibrated the device, cleaned it, etc. The lines still showed up. Seeing it for myself I find the lines to be unacceptable. I wanted to digitize my old photos to keep them from wear and signs of age. Not scan them and have artifacts in the finished product that weren't there when I started. The time saved using this device compared to using a flatbed scanner for photos is not enough to overlook this fault.

Buy Pandigital PANSCN01 PhotoLink Mini Scanner -Black Now

I took a gamble, after reading about the white lines in some of the other reviews, and purchased this scanner anyway. I was hoping that it was just a few defective units, and mine would not have that problem. Well, just like the others, my photos all scan in with fine white lines across them. I've tried cleaning and calibrating it multiple times, following the instructions and it hasn't helped.

To me, these lines are completely unacceptable. I'm going to try and return it to the manufacturer, hoping that they have come up with a fix for it since it was first produced. If they come through and get me a working unit, I will come back and write a new review. But for now, two stars is an extremely generous rating, based solely on how much I love the concept behind this product, as the final product you end up with is not good.

I just opened this baby up and started scanning and love the way it functions. It scans fast and easy and seems to autocrop when necessary. The major downside is there are fine lines through almost half of my pictures I scanned. Some are noticiable and all seem to be in the same area. Tried rescanning those pics and it sometimes improves and goes from 2 lines to 1 but it's always there. I am calling MFG to see if there is a fix besides the recalibration.

I have had 4 of these units in my possession now, and none of them performed without lines through the images. It is a shame, because it is flawless in every other way. The concept is so solid that, if it performed well, there would be one in every household at the price they are offering it at. I would pay three times as much for it if it worked.

I would say I get maybe 25% good scanned images, the rest have lines through them. They show up at different spots on the same image, or sometimes not at all, so it doesn't seem to be related to the print.It's such a great concept that I gave it two stars even though it doesn't seem to work. Such a shame, with a working product and a little bit of advertising they could sell millions of them.

The product is easy to set up and use, but it definitely leaves lines through the pictures. I read the reviews on here before buying, and it seemed like only one reviewer had trouble with lines, so I thought I'd take my chance.

I even made sure to clean each photo beforehand, to remove any dust or other debris. My first two (2) pictures came out good, but ONLY my first two pictures. The rest had horrible white lines on them! And the amount and thickness of lines seemed to increase as I went on.

The manufacturer KNOWS this is a problem, and even addresses this issue in the user manual. I followed the recommended solution: cleaning and calibrating the machine, but that made no difference. There were still lines!

I am upset that I wasted so much time scanning photos (it is much quicker than using a flatbed scanner though). I would not recommend this product to anyone who is trying to digitize their precious photos. If you don't care about the quality, then go for it. Otherwise, this machine would only be useful for scanning business cards or receipts.

I will be returning this. Save yourself the trouble--don't buy!

PDair VX1 Black Leather Case for HTC Sensation 4G Z710e / HTC Sensation XE

PDair VX1 Black Leather Case for HTC Sensation 4G Z710e / HTC Sensation XEI bought this for my HTC Sensation. It is the second case I have bought from Govamart and I must say they don't disappoint. The first case was for my iPod Touch 4th Gen and it was high quality leather and the stitching was quite impressive. Additionally it has protected my iPod for about 4 months now.

Govamart didn't disappoint with this case too. It fits the HTC perfectly although it is not soft on the inside. I have already put a protective screen on the phone because of the slide in/out motion. I'm paranoid that in the long run it may affect the screen. The case is a quality product and the stitching is just lovely in white giving it a distinctive and expensive look.

I give it 4 stars because you can't charge and listen to music at the same time. This is because they didn't leave space for the micro USB port at the bottom of the case. If you are going to do both, you have to remove it from the case.

ZAGG ZSPARQ600SLV 6000 Silver Battery - Retail Packaging - Silver/Black

ZAGG ZSPARQ600SLV 6000 Silver Battery - Retail Packaging - Silver/BlackI bought the ZAGGsparq 6000 mainly as a portable backup power source for my iPad 3, and it works fine for that purpose. I've had an older ZAGGsparq for several years and, while it worked fine for my iPhones, it wouldn't charge the new iPad ("ipad 3"). After receiving the 6000 directly from ZAGG several days ago, I charged it completely and plugged both an iPad 3 (battery at about 70%) and an iPhone 5 (battery at about 60%) into the dual USB ports. Both devices indicated they were charging. When I checked back a couple of hours later both devices were fully charged and the ZAGGsparq 6000 still had about 80% of its power remaining.

I haven't had the ZAGGsparq 6000 long enough to do extensive testing, but thus far I am quite happy with it. It charges both the iPad 3 and iPhone 5 efficiently; 2 devices can be charged simultaneously; it's small enough to be easily portable; and finally, the on/off switch on the 6000 should help prevent significant battery drainage when it isn't in use. I can recommend this device without hesitation.

Great little charger! It charges my iPhone 5 twice easily before it needs to be recharged. Only negative comment is the lack of instructions, I would like to know if you should drain it completely before recharging it. Otherwise it exceeds my expectations!

Buy ZAGG ZSPARQ600SLV 6000 Silver Battery - Retail Packaging - Silver/Black Now

I've had the ZAGG Sparq 6000 for 4 months now and so I feel its long enough to write a review about it. It takes about 2-3 hours to charge the ZAGG Sparq from 0 to full charge. There are blue indicator lights that blink the progress and stop blinking when the charge is full. In terms of charging capabilities, I've been disappointed in that it doesn't charge the iPhone as many times as it says. When I have my ZAGG fully charged it will do a full iPhone charge and then a half, then that's it. It's a little heavy but not bad, just makes my purse a little heavier. I sometimes forget to bring an iPhone cable with me so that's definitely something you need to remember to take with you or wrap around the ZAGG when traveling/leaving the house.

I tarvel every week for work and this is a must have for me as I no longer need to find the one chair near an outlet. I also do not need to sit on the floor down a dirty halway as that is the only place to recharge my devices.

This wee we went on spring break with the kids, due to a flight delay we needed to charge the kids ipads. No problem even mid flight. This device is worth the money for anyone who travels for business or travels with kids.

I could even see this for the person on the go but in and out of their car to often to get a proper charge from the car charger.

The device is easy to use and so far has exceeded expectations.
