What Case Do You Have For Sl-c3000?

NOTE!
(as I just discovered) brando cases for the 860 are COMPLETELY different for the 3000/1000.

the brando 3000/1000 case has pegs to locate/hold the zaurus, and these are completely different to the location of the holes in the 860.

I have discovered, rather accidently, that the Targus Stowaway keyboard cases are a perfect fit for the 1000/3000. My Palm 5 keyboard( a rebranded Targus) case is a bulky, but sturdy leather zip-up style. My Compaq Stowaway has a slim, black elastic zip-up that is perfect for fitting into my coat pocket.

I used to use the palm case for my homemade battery extender (8xNiMH AA batteries making a ~4600mAh battery pack) but I think I'm going to try and hunt down the Pelican Power-Bricks for the PSP and use a couple of those for the Z instead. (They're apparently ~3700mAh rechargeables for $20US each.)

found at COMPUSA ($20)

has a holster that is nearly perfect for listening to your podcasts on the go. The whole thing stretches to fit. If you don't have a remote, you can push all the outer buttons without removing your C3000. The headphone jack is exposed just enough. There is a thin secure pocket that stretches to hold my  CFwifi, CFflash, and extra battery. The clip is hard plastic, but seems strong enough to me. I use it as my only case (I have three others that were never good enough). But, there are exposed areas.

Just received a Piel Farma SL-C300 Case in Black/Tan.  Very good fit, great leather.  Will be field testing it outdoors, and with a full assortment of accessories over the next few days.  Will try to get my digital camera to take a few pics of it this weekend and upload for all to see.  

Definitely worth the one month wait in my opinion.  Goody!  No more unslightly pouch to carry my 3K around on.

Yippee!

I've been waiting over a month for a case from thepouch.co.uk.  So far I'm not very happy at all with the buying experience through them.  I've been told it is now on its way from the factory to their distribution center, but they are not willing to overnight it to me, so once it gets to their distribution center, I will have to wait up to a week more for it.

Kooie,
we and Streamline just sent back the first lot of cases
to PielFrama ([a href=\"https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=12537&hl=]case problems[/url]).

Could you please look at your case and check if:
- you can access the CF slot while the Z is in the case ?
- the stitching on the upper part is one uninterrupted line ?

I'm just wondering if there exist two series of the cases because
the first sample we got was near to perfect, they messed up the
design for the final case.

Hi Marc,

I checked, and u r right, there is only a piece of plastic holding the case together.  (MIght need to drop an email to the guys there on this).  The CF slot is fine on mine.  It fits fine and allows a CF card to be inserted.  

U have got me worried though on if the case can last with all the opening and closing of the cover.  Hmmm!  Will check if they are doing something about mine.

Thanks for the update.

Cheers!

Mark,

http://www.data-nation.com/index.asp?redir...usellmodels.asp

The brand is Krusell and the model is the  Horizontal PDA Premium - S #94110
124mm x 21mm x 85mm

The fit should be snug for the 3K:   124mm x 25mm x 87mm
My experience with my last Krusell case is that there is stretch.

You can also see the manufacturer's site:   www.krusell.se

You just have to be careful with some sites as they carry the older models which do not have the fancy-shmancy card holders in the front as the new picture shows.

I have bought from data-nation before so I went with what I know.  The price was slightly higher but not enough to cause concern.

Thanks Speculatrix and pepilo, those cases are exactly what I want, and they are cheaper than some of the others too, with $3 for postage too!

Awesome work fellows- finally a case I like, esp. the clip mechanism- that really looks like the business on the SLC3000. Let's see how long they will take to get here... they only charge $3 for postage! what a refreshing change...

i'm using a cheap ($5) camera case from Kmart that is almost form fitted to my C1000... except for some extra space at the top (can probably close it with a CF wifi card in)

not much space for accessories, but enough for a spare SD card, and the USB Host cable

i'll post some pics tomorrow

at Kmart, it's item SB20, but on the site, it's SB21
