SL-6000 carry cases

If I was trendy, the tan looks very nice.  I'm pretty conservative with cases, so I'm leaning towards black.  The cowhide of course.

These do look nice.  Right now I use a case that zippers closed so I would worry that the open style of the PF case would allow in more grit / dirt?

It looks like you'd also need to use a screen protector with this style too or else the grit or even the SD cards would scratch the screen.

I assume that you need to remove the case in order to synch.  It doesn't look like it'd fit in the 6000 docking station.  How easy are they to remove?

If it is closed, you have to apply quite some pressure on the cover before the SD card in the pocket touches the screen. However in theory it is possible.

To remove the sl6000 you open the cover and slide the pda upward. There is no chance the device slips from the case when it is closed. Since the leathet fits quite thight around the device, chances that is slides out of the case while it is open, are small

The producer also makes screen-protectors. Don't know if they make them for the sl6000 as well.

I bought a Sumdex HDP-165BK at Micro Center. It was around $25. I was amazed at the fit. More than big enough for the SL-6000, with about a half-inch to spare. It has plenty of pockets, credit card slots, etc. A couple outside pockets could easily hold compactflash cards. You can attach velcro to the back of the Zaurus to have it permanently attached, but I've left it loose for now. I've used Sumdex cases before and they hold up well. I wouldn't mind one without the outside pockets so it would be a bit less bulky, but this model is worth checking out.

I know this was a while ago ..... are you sure the brand is Sumdex, I never heard of it and cannot find it on the MicroCenter site.  Thanks.
