Hi everybody,
thanks for the lot of opinions and suggestions.
Let's try to answer:
- The plastic sheet:
Lots of users complained about the leather stripe on the
SL-C7/8xx cases. So we begged PielFrama to use plastic
for the upper belt. They did, they use a sheet instead of
a belt and it provides a very good stability to the case.
It's definitely not disturbing the feel of typing and we like
it.
- Alternative mountings:
We and PielFrama don't want to paste _anything_ on the
device. All PielFrama cases hold a Zaurus without former
fixing of holders / straps etc. The Zaurus is perfectly
held in the case, easy to remove and protected from
all sides.
- Charging in closed case:
We have a hole for the charger in our SL-5500 case. And
it's a total mess . The hole is too small for the plug of
the EA-70S. If you would make it large enough for the plug
it would be HUGE. You can charge the SL-C series while it's
in the case, you just need to open the case, no need to take
the Zaurus out. I don't see this as a big deal.
- Cable holder:
The actual SL-C cases will fit in your pocket (OK, you may
have to put your Smith&Wesson elsewhere), but it needs
to be a big pocket
There're also slots for 2 x SD cards. If you make it big enough
to carry also the host cable, it won't fit in any pocket.
On the other hand: If you need to carry the host cable, this
means you want to use your USB-stick, USB-HD, USB-keyboard.
So if you carry external devices, just put the host cable to the
device.
Hope i haven't forgot anything,
