3in1 Metal 3-Pack Stylus for Palm Treo 750 755P
I'd lost my OEM stylus quite some time ago, and had been making-do with whatever I could. Unfortunately, I still had this 'hole' on the top of my Palm Treo, letting in dust and junk that probably isn't good for the phone.I'd had a 'pen' stylus for earlier Palm devices so when I finally went looking for a replacement, that was a requirement. This Pen Stylus (set of 3) filled the bill exactly. It works great as a stylus (much more accurate than my fat-fingers!), and now I can have a pen with me always, w/o having to look like I should be wearing a pocket-protector too. ;-)
I'll never buy a 'plain' stylus again. :-)

My personal use for this is the shower, put it in a corner where water won't touch it...take it out, charge, rinse and repeat. I had conventional speakers hooked up outside the curtain but the sound was muddied, something that can be murder on low-bitrate podcasts. As a result I have access to my personal library of music and podcasts and as a result, life is somewhat improved.I wouldn't buy this as a primary listening device, but a wonderfully functional piece for portable use.

HP iPAQ hx2495b Pocket PC (FA674B#ABA)
Okay, so I bought a brand spanking new hx2495b. One of the first things I did was install a SD card. Then the problems started. Fairly frequent soft boots required to get the thing to turn on. Battery dead (0%) from full charge over night. Not too often, but a couple of times in the 2 weeks I had it.Emailed hp support about the problem (I did forget to mension I had a SD card installed) and they, of course, recommended doing a ROM update. Okay, I just got a brand new unit, why should it need a ROM update all ready? I go and locate the update, down load it and go to install it. Sure enough the update they wanted me to install was the exact same version all ready in the silly thing! Like that is going to do any good, duh?
Then I notice one of the things the ROM update was suppost to fix is a lock up and battery drain problem when an SD card is installed. Humm, maybe they haven't really fixed that. So, I pull my SD card and whad ya know, all the problems went away!
Well, I really don't need the SD card, so I can live with that, but I'd wish they had said something about it! Even though I forgot about the SD card being in there, they should have realized the problem when I said the battery went dead over night! I can't be the only one to have this problem. Guess they don't want to admit there is still a flaw in the programming. A year after it was suppost to be fixed!
So, I'd recommend if you don't need an SD card, don't put one in. If you do need it, pull it out when your not using it.
One other thing to keep in mind is when you turn the PDA off, it doesn't really turn off. The display goes out, but a lot of stuff is still running inside. This is so it will come back exactly where you left off when you turn it back on. That's nice, but if you don't have it on a charger, it will drain the battery in 3-4 days just sitting around. Maybe not a big deal to most people, but I want to use the thing to keep a trail journal while hiking the Appalachian Trail, and I could go a week between towns and AC power. Guess I'll have to lug a solar charger along too if I want to use it.
Other than the problem with the SD card and not really turning off when its off, its a great little gizzmo. Solidly built and otherwise works great.
Oh, one other thing you might want to know. The instructions aren't clear about this. Activesync likes to turn it's self on all the time. The way to stop this is to set it to manual sync only. Unfortunetly, the button to access this command is not available if you have it set for USB sync. To set it to manual sync only, you have to set up a server connection first.
Start activesync (if it isn't already running!)
Menu > add server source
enter a dummy server address like 1.1.1.1
enter some other dummy info into the next blocks it wants you to fill in
then go back to menu and click on schedule.
Now select manual sync in two places.
Go back and delete the server connection.
Now active sync will only come on when you want it too.
#1. The Today screen, (Desktop), sometimes leaves out some of the device status icons. To fix it, tap START, SETTINGS, TODAY and uncheck any item to display. Exit and it will be removed. Then go back in and recheck the box and it (and the missing display status icons) will reappear. #2. For whatever reason, sometimes the device will not turn on. Fret not, you have done nothing wrong. Stick the stylus into the soft reset hole...and BLINK...the screen comes back on and the device reboots itself. #3. Navigating the device is partly intuitive and partly not. There are still some screens I've seen only once. I have no idea how I got there and no idea how to get back. #4. Internet Explorer, Its a MEMORY and STORAGE hog. You can clear the storage caches of IE by doing OPTIONS and deleting the history and files. But the only way to clean out the memory cache is to do a soft reboot. The more you use IE, the more you'll notice the available system memory continually deminishes. I do a soft reboot weekly now to keep the system free of as many temp files as possible.
But overall I like it. I'm used to fiddling with tech stuff so it doesn't really bother me. I use it at work daily and all the included and extra software works great!!
Buy HP iPAQ hx2495b Pocket PC (FA674B#ABA) Now
No doubt HP (Compaq?) did a good job translating market needs into a specification. The problem happened when they went into production.This PDA has most of what "mobile professionals" need. Power, speed, connectivity....HP however, missed the boat on the quality dimension.
My machine keeps turning on & off throughout the day and night until it runs out of juice. By the time I need it, the battey is almost dead.
Synchronizing is another problem, Activesync 4.2 is much more unstable and limited than previous versions, thus loosing recently modified information or "forcing you" to create duplicate files in order to retain your changes. Before you know it, you have 3-4 documents for the same file. This isn't synchronizing anymore, this is...duplicating.
Overall the product has more pros than cons, however these quality glitches does detract from the good job made by R&D.
This product isn't the HP quality product we became accustomed to, when in college !

I had an entry level iPaq the 1910 for a couple of years. Had lots of trouble with it (some of which I believe were created by an aftermarket synch/charging cable). It finally died, and I replaced it with a Palm TX which I quickly returned. Windows compatible yes /work efficiently no.I replaced that with the iPaq hx2495 and love it. I would have given it 5 stars rather than 4, but I would need to have the unit function w/o problems for another few months before giving it the fifth star.
I have it synched w/2 computers and had no problems loading or using the software. ActivSynch 4.5 seems to be working w/o flaw. The connections seem a little better built than my old 1910, and I have been able to use the wifi to access Internet Explorer and email w/o a problem either.
Right now, I am very happy with this, but then it cost me $350.00, so it should make me happy! I'd spend that again just to have something that works this efficiently and is powered by Microsoft rather than just Microsoft "compatible". Spend the extra bucks it's worth it.

Lots of features, lots of function, great display. BUT bulky and heavy compared to a Palm VX. Frequently requires a soft reset after charging. The charging cradle should have a socket for a spare stylus, since getting at the stylus while charging is inconvenient.It is hard to determine which accessories fit a particular model of IPAQ.
The removable battery is a great feature, as are the slots for CF and SD cards.
Unfortunately, for the core functions it is slower and less convenient that my old, long-in-the tooth, Palm VX.

Belt Mounted Leather Case Custom Designed for the Palm palm Treo 650 - Black Color with Removable C
I had a Verizon case similar in design which worked well except that the bet clip slipped off my thick belt. Once I lost the Treo in a park but was fortunate enough to find it. The belt loops on this case make it impossible to lose. I have had this case several months and no problem with the loops. It also comes with a detachable belt clip which also seems a cut above the competition it hooks AROUND the belt versus just clipping onto it.The case is a nice looking design but nothing special compared to other similar cases. It is harder than the Verizon case so it probably provides a little more protection. The only problem I have had is that taking the Treo out of the case often turns it on or answers the phone not sure why since this never happended with the Verizon case. Expensive but highly recommend for security against loss.

Intel Pentium G620 Dual Core 2.6 GHz Intel HD Graphics Retail LGA 1155 Processor - BX80623G620
I bought this CPU to make a low-power, inexpensive media PC for my bedroom to replace the Comcast DVRs I returned. I am not at all disappointed.So far, I cannot tell the difference in picture quality or performance against the more expensive i3-2100 CPU that's in my main living room HTPC. It's definitely better than the AMD Phenom II x3 705e / HD5670 HTPC system I used to have. Like it's i3-2100 cousin, there is far less color banding, panning is better and the picture is overall just better. That AMD CPU and graphics card were over $200 at the beginning of 2010!
With this CPU, I am able to watch HD video, HD TV and everything else I need to do with my media PC without issue. It runs super-cool and the included fan and heatsink are not audible from across the bedroom. While watching HD video and TV it uses between 40W-50W. It idles under 30W. My old HTPC used 180W-200W and idled around 95W.
I continue to be amazed by the performance, power usage and features you get and this price point for an Intel CPU.
The build:
Intel Pentium G620 CPU
ASUS P8H61-I mini-itx motherboard
Rosewill RS-MI-01 BK mini-ITX case with 120W picoPSU replacing the stock PSU
Kingston V100 64GB SSD
Western Digital 320GB Caviar Blue HDD
Happauge WinTV 1250 tuner card
Rosewill USB wireless-N
Logitech K400 wireless keyboard
120mm Antec Tri-Cool case fan
Custom PSU backplate cover with mount for picoPSU jack
BTW: the title of this product page is incorrect. This is an LGA 1155 CPU, not LGA 1156.
For real world applications this will handle anything in a productivity suite. With 4gb ram I have been able to have around 6 browser tabs open, Itunes and anything from MS Office 2010 going at the same time with no halts. Adobe CS5 also runs great too.
The only con I can think of is that it doesn't have hyper threading and has a locked multiplier, but this isn't a performance/gaming cpu and that is what I expected. What I didn't expect is to get as much performance as this has for the price. I can't comment on the built in Intel graphics, because I use a discrete GPU, but anyone that has used integrated graphics knows about that, although things are beginning to change.
The price and performance of this processor are simply amazing, it is definitely up to productivity multitasking, HD/Blu-Ray playback, and moderate gaming.
Here is a short comparison with the exact same graphics card and similar components of my old rig based off a Core 2 Duo E6600 overclocked from 2.4ghz to 3.1ghz.
Pentium G620 2.6ghz vs Core 2 Duo E6600@3.1ghz on 3D Mark Vantage (preset = performance)
Motherboard: ASUSTeK Computer INC. P8P67-M PRO -EVGA NFORCE 680i LT SLI
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 -NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260
Processor clock: 2600 MHz -3100 MHz
Memory: 4096 MB Kingston 9 @ 667 MHz -4096 MB Corsair 7 @ 400 MHz
3DMark Vantage Score: 8186.34 -8205.65
CPU Score: 6192.24 -5151.86
Graphics Score: 9170.77 -10226.2
Operating system 64-bit Windows 7
No tweaking or changes were made to any components of the hardware I've used aside from the obviously stated OC on the E6600. I find it very interesting how the cpu score can differ so much and yet the higher scoring cpu, gets a lower overall score. I hope this gives an idea of the ability/ limitation of the Pentium G620 and the contrast of older and newer hardware. Although in different classes, my goal was to show how budget today is on par of more expensive performance of 4 years ago.I bought a G620 as an essentially disposable placeholder until Ivy Bridge arrives. It's being used with a Biostar z68 motherboard, 2x4GB of GSkill DDR3 2133 memory, and two Crucial SSDs in RAID0.
The current price on Amazon is about as good as it gets. Auction sites advertise the G620 for eight dollars less, but that's for the OEM version that doesn't come with a three year warranty or a stock heatsink/fan. And "no," you don't have to throw the stock cooler away.
I realize that some reviewers just can't live with a CPU cooler that isn't large enough and complex enough to double as the warp coil on the Starship Enterprise. Regardless, the boxed Intel cooler is both quiet and efficient. Temps are around 95 degrees F (35 C) at idle and never exceed 128 F (53 C) at full tilt. Full speed on the stock fan is just under 2,000 RPM, but the Biostar motherboard chooses to run the fan at roughly 1,250 RPM at idle and 1,500 RPM at 100% utilization.
The low temperatures and slow fan speeds are directly attributable to the energy efficiency of the G620. My UPS measures the amount of power drawn from the wall socket. As best as I can judge, the G620 draws 15 watts at idle and 40 watts at 100%. The 65 watt spec is unrealistically pessimistic.
Intel's specs state that the G620 is limited to running memory at DDR3 1066. However, the Biostar motherboard has the GSkill memory running at DDR3 1600 without any input from me. It's unlikely that this actually translates into a significant performance increase, but it was a pleasant surprise.
The G620's CPU multiplier of 26 is locked upwards but unlocked downwards. The Biostar motherboard automatically reduces the multiplier to 16 at low utilization. This contributes to the low idle temperature. Attempting to work around the lock by increasing motherboard clock speed results in some interesting behavior. The CPU is rock solid up to and including 104 MHz (2.7 GHz), but it will not run at all at 105 MHz.
There may be a couple of other features available that Intel intended to lock out. First, Intel's specs state that VT-d is disabled on the G620, but the Biostar's BIOS reports that VT-d is available. This is of no current benefit because no virtualization software supports VT-d as of yet. So, I don't really know whether VT-d is actually available or if the Biostar's BIOS is just mistaken.
Second, DVD Fab reports that Intel Quick Sync is available (and preselected by default) as the H.264 codec. This is unexpected since the G620 is only supposed to have Intel HD1000 graphics. Again, I haven't experimented to confirm whether Quick Sync is really available.
Update 3/30/2012: I'm still satisfied with this purchase. The 620 really is a lot of bang for the buck. However, two issues have surfaced in the last nine months.
First, the Intel boxed fan/cooler is becoming too noisy for me, even with the RPMs dialed down in my motherboard's BIOS. My best guess is that the bearings are wearing out already. I'm still glad that Intel included what is basically a free cooler in the box, because that has allowed me to spread out the cost of building a new computer. I'll buy a good third-party cooler now and just throw the Intel cooler away. It has done its job.
Second, I became dissatisfied with the built in Sandy Bridge graphics. My best guess is that the hardware is OK, but the driver is a long way from being mature. This is unfortunate since I don't play games and don't need a powerful third-party graphics card. It worked OK on Win7 but would never install properly on the MS Dreamworks edition of Server 2008 R2. It also failed to make the best of what Media Player Classic + Lav filters + Reclock + MadVR offers. I ended up buying an nVidia GT440 card for cheap. nVidia updates its drivers regularly while Intel makes only one update per six months, if even that.I chose this for a recent HTPC build over a Sandy Bridge i5 after reading a few reviews (including these on Amazon) described it as more than capable of handling 1080p video.
I'm glad I made that choice. It's effortlessly handled just about every piece of video I've thrown at it so far (except that one clip from Planet Earth with the thousands of birds over a lake...), and it does an equally admirable job on Windows 7, XBMC (Alaska MQ skin) and my GameEx emulators. My TV doesn't do 3D, so I haven't tested it there, but the reviews I've read made it clear that it doesn't handle 3D content. Keep that in mind.
Also keep in mind that the stock fan can get a bit noisy. It's not generally an issue for me, as it's the Alaska skin, rather than the movies, that taxes the CPU to that degree.
It's a solid choice if you're just getting into the HTPC scene.
edit: For reference, my full build also includes a ASRock H67 Mini-ITX Motherboard and a Corsair XMS3 4 GB RAM kit.This is a great Processor for the price.Performance is amazing.Powerful, but not a power hog, runs cool and quiet, iGPU is a perfect match for HTPC duties. Low cost. PLAYS CRYSIS ON LOW. PLAY ALICE MADNESS RETURNS ON LOW. CAN'T PLAY CRYSIS 2. STICKS ON GAMMER. I TESTED IT WITH GIGABYTE Z68MA-D2H-B3 MOTHERBOARD AND 4GB OF CORSAIR XMS3 DDR3 120GB OCZ VERTEX3 SSD. SCORES 6.5 IN WINDOWS EXPERIENCE.

HP iPAQ 5450 Color Pocket PC
Hi. I already bought ten of these devices, in order to develop a unique project supported by Microsoft using latest .NET compact framework techs, etc. The first surprise.. our 5450s are like a beta test.. and we are beta testers. WLAN works fine, but they cannot authenticate in an Linksys AP, 802.11G is not supported on early models, this problem was recognized by HP and they released an OS update. In addition, battery indicator shows depletion erroneously, there are several problems with low cost SD memory expansion cards, my device worked with Simple Tech, Wiking or Kingston, other brands didn't worked at all. One of our devices dropped from a loose jacket pocket, a 2-feet fall. Results: the screen exploded and broken in several parts, seems that the screen was made with real glass, not plexiglass nor other transparent thing like early Compaq IPAQs. WE sent it to HP labs, and they said the motherboard was broken as well, so the device is almost unusable. We spent over 8,800.00 USD in these machines, and we think we deserve more robustness, provided at that time the device was sheltered with the supplied screen cover and protection sleeve.On the positive side, the device is fast, with outstanding pocketDIVX video performance and a sustained 2MBPS WLAN transfer rate (10 meters).
Bluetooth performance is deceiving, in spite of that, the concept of personal area network is quite interesting. But if you want to exchange some MP3s, you can expect transfer times that are comparable to the infrarred connection ones not much gain at all.
We often have to soft reset our devices, mainly due to WLAN config changes those are not reflected, or WLAN card not properly turned off, or WLAN reconfig not possible or rejected by the device. We certainly think the 5450 is not a mature product. Great concept, state of the art microelectronics and so on, but we think HP released a beta version, not a final release. An expensive one, indeed.
The Internet reviews of the HP 5450 were a mixed bag with some people stating that it wasn't a reliable machine, some going as far as saying that they had to make a hard reset every day.
I bought my HP 5450 about a month ago. Overall, I have been positively surprised by it's reliability. Many of the negative points stated in the December/January reviews have been dealt with efficiently by HP. For example the headphone jack on my machine is a standard headphone jack. With a 128 megabyte SD memory card, I have been using the iPaq as an MP3 player with no problems. The finger print reader works impeccably, always on the first time scan (I did have to practice for about 20 minutes using the training program supplied with the machine as you need to use a swift steady motion). The fingerprints are now saved in the ROM of the machine so that even if you do a Hard Reset (i.e. restore the machine to it's original configuration), the machine is still protected with you finger print. This makes your machine useless to any "would be" thief.
If you take the backlighting down to a reasonable level, you easily get 7 to 8 hours of battery use. I have a second battery which I have been using when I travel. I also have the option of charging the machine when I go on long trips as there is a standard adapter which allows you to plug in your power cord straight into the Ipaq (instead of through the cradle). There is also the option of slow charging directly through the USB chord so you could leave your power chord behind without being left completely stranded.
Both Bluetooth and WLAN connections work fine and are relatively easy to set up if your phone and wireless gateway are properly setup. They do use up more battery, especially the WLAN. I turn them on for a few minutes when I need to get/send my emails and turn them off when I am done.
There is also a nifty backup software which allows you to backup all the RAM contents into ROM (the Ipaq file store) so that if you go on holiday, you can backup all your programs and databases to restore them later in case your memory got erased due to an extended "power outage".
Size and design are exceptional. Only a little bit bigger and heavier than my previous Palm m515. The Windows Pocket PC 2002 software is even more user friendly than the Palm OS.
Please note that I bought my Ipaq in Hong Kong where it comes with a 1250Mh battery as standard. It seems that Amazon's is only 900 Mh.
A great machine... Well worth its price!
Buy HP iPAQ 5450 Color Pocket PC Now
I'm a diehard Palm fan and still am. However the PocketPC filled an itch that I have never been able to scratch with the Palm namely web browsing.With the 5450/5455 I have been able to (within an hour) hook up to my WIFI system in my house, setup wireless synching and get up and browse the web. Something that I think would have taken multiple steps with my Tungsten.
Here are the things I like and dislike about the 5450/5455:
LIKES:
1. Integrated WIFI The wave of the future. No need to slap add-on cards or boards to the unit. It is all built in.
2. Color screen Bright and readable.
4. Active Synch Everything you enter to the unit can be automatically synchronized to your computer as you work -not just when you hit the synch button.
DISKLIKES:
1. The early 5450/5455 have intermittent problems with WIFI "Out of Memory" error messages.
2. The battery life is shorter than Palm-although I AM using the WIFI capability so will live with it (and I'm sure that is why the battery depletes faster).
Overall I am a little sorry to say that after a month of usage I CANNOT recommend the iPaq for anyone but the most diehard enthusiast. The device is wildly buggy on WIFI (reported in just about every iPaq discussion forum, requires numerous soft resets ever day and frequent HARD resets (ie All data gone bye-bye).
After about a month I've found this platform to be buggy, slower than Palm and just not as convenient. It does not break any new ground whatsoever for the average user. And to top it all off, the web browsing that I loved initially turns out to be dog slow -even when connected wirelessly to my DSL. Avoid this product.

I bought the device as my first Pocket PC. I couldn't get over all the integrated features, integrated 802.11b AND Bluetooth, consumer IR, etc etc. After I got the device and spent a few days playing with it, I started noticing a few quirks with the integrated 802.11b. First of all, every once in a while, when attempting to start the wireless network utility to turn on the wireless radio, I will get an error stating there is not enough driver memory. This is easily resolved with a soft reset of the device, but isn't something I should have to do in the first place. Ah well, that wasn't too big of a deal to me. Second, it uses the Atmel controller, and if you are looking for wireless network stumbling utilities like Ministumbler or Pocketwarrior, they will not work with it until they are ported for this controller. And last, being the biggest gripe about it, there is no integrated 802.1x authentication support, and I haven't found any 3rd party solutions. This basically means that if you plan to use this device in your place of business and 802.1x authentication is required to access your corporate WLAN, you'll have to get an expansion sleeve and a supported card and drivers. HUGE oversight on HP's part seeing as this device seems to be geared toward the corporate market. If your WLAN at work doesn't require 802.1x, you'll be fine. I hope that this will be resolved in a future software update, but for now you might be better getting the cheaper 3900 series, a compact flash adapter sleeve, and appropriate compact flash 802.11b card, especially if you plan on using this device for wardriving or connecting to an 802.1x secured network...[Supplement on 1-24-2004]
I still have the iPaq and am happy to say all the issues I complained about are resolved. The open source PocketWarrior program is available for wardriving with the Atmel chipset wlan chip built in. And with the Windows Mobile 2003 software upgrade you can purchase from HP, the device gets 802.1x support. New gripe, sometimes I have a hard time getting the device to sync via the supplied cradle, and have to revert to using a straight USB sync cable. This happens on TWO cradles I have. Sync issues aside, I love this thing! Upgrading rating from 3 to 4 stars...

USB Supermini Keyboad Touch Pad Black with built-in
This is not an item that the average person would probably have any real use for, but for some purposes it's indispensable. In my situation I have to support touchscreen PC's that don't have a keyboard or mouse attached, and there are times when a keyboard and mouse are necessary. Rather than carrying around a full sized keyboard and a mouse, and not having a place to set either of them down while using the other (and how do you use a mouse against cinderblock walls if there's no table?), you can hold this in one hand while the other one types on the keys or uses the built-in mouse touchpad. The keys are really small, too tiny for touch-typing but then you won't want this for word processing anyhow.It's only about 8 inches wide and 6 inches front to back and maybe 5/8" thick; it has a decently long cord attached. (So many items and appliances are ruined by the mfr saving two cents and providing too-short of a cord this one is better.) If you need to have a keyboard and mouse for a computer where there is little space, or where those things are not able to be used conveniently, this is a godsend. Possibly there could be some handicapped persons who would also benefit from a device this small that provides both the keyboard and mouse.
If I have any gripes about this little mini keyboard it is that you have to make sure the num lock hasn't engaged, because if it does, some of the keys revert to typing numbers instead of regular characters as it turns some of the keys into a numeric keypad arrangement, but you get used to watching for this and avoiding it.
You might also find this useful if you have a 'utility' pc tucked away as a file server, which does not usually need a keyboard and mouse left lying around. You plug this in to the USB port, Windows installs it promptly, and voila, you have a keyboard and mouse.
Someone apparently thought my little mini keyboard was pretty cute and walked off with it and I had to buy another one immediately, because for my purposes, there's nothing else like it. I showed the vendor who provides the touch screen PC's and he bought some for his employees to use, and they found out just how handy this is.
It's well made, or so it seems, much like any typical computer keyboard only smaller. If you need a mouse and keyboard in a pinch, and don't have space or place to put the regular items, this is perfect.
I could also see people using this as a portable keyboard for logging into servers, kiosks, HTPCs and other types of systems without real keyboards/mice. I haven't tried it with my PS3 yet but I'm sure it would work for that also.
Overall it's perfect for me, but if you have larger hands (or even normal-sized hands) I doubt you'll be pleased with the touch typing performance of this keyboard.

I use this keyboard on a lap desk while sitting in my easy chair. It is perfect for that purpose. Yes, it is small, but it works very well. It is a little smaller than the keyboard on my 10" netbook but it still works fine with my large hands. The touchpad is very useful and performs various touch commands flawlessly. The keyboard is very quiet, too. My only complaint is the mouse buttons and their placement and the buttons themselves. The buttons are crammed under the touchpad and they are easy to miss. They need direct, firm pressure to execute commands properly.The keyboard's feet grip smooth surfaces very well. I can tilt my lap desk at a 45° angle and it won't slip off. The unit is very well made and has a solid feel. I highly recommend this keyboard to anyone seeking a small format and minimal footprint.

New OEM Verizon Casio G'zone Ravine C751 Black Leather Fitted Case
It's leather so, it's tough, but thin leather, so it doesn't add appreciable bulk.The fit is very precious with cut-outs for the front screen, mic, temperature sensor, speaker, etc. in all the right places. (The one exception is the camera/LED flash cut-out, which can block the camera/LED a little when shifted. The hole could probably have been cut a little larger for slack.)
Thick clear plastic (vinyl?) protects the inside screen and keypad. Although it's optically transparent, I have to press the keys a little firmer now. The Ravine keypad without the plastic cover was still operable while wearing a (thin) glove but with the plastic cover it frequently registered my presses incorrectly.
The belt clip is a permanently attached part of the holster/case and will stay firmly at one of the 5 notched positions (180 degree range). The clip opening is such that it will slide easily over the thickness of pants or belt, but the opening will require a little stretching to get it over the thickness of both.) The clip itself feels like spring steel, hopefully durability won't be a long term issue (I've only used it a month at time of this writing.)
I had also considered the Ravine swivel belt clip but read that the phone is easily dislodged. I have yet to drop my Ravine off of my belt/pants with this fitted case.
con's, the hole's could be bigger for the camera Len's and the speaker.
the clip is low profile and it is permanent.

I purchased two phone cases (one to use and a back up for later)and I am very pleased with the quality of product, the promptness of shipment, and everything about this transaction. My husband likes this particular case because he is really hard on his phone and its covers. They are tough but nothing lasts forever. These seem to be the only covers that hold up to his needs. He is a farmer and outdoors all of the time. Thanks for a great transaction!Read Best Reviews of New OEM Verizon Casio G'zone Ravine C751 Black Leather Fitted Case Here
Great to be able to still find a case for phone that still works seems they discontinue phones and accessories every 6 months!Want New OEM Verizon Casio G'zone Ravine C751 Black Leather Fitted Case Discount?
As it turns out this case is intended for the Casio G'zone Ravien 1 but I have a Ravine 2. it protects the phone pretty well. However, the cut-outs for the camera , speakers, and microphones are in the wrong places. It is sometimes inconvenient, but not enough to warrant a return since the phone is protected from damage.Save 60% Off

HP iPAQ FA113A#AC3 H1900 Stylus 3-PackA new stylus for an old iPAQ is impossible to find now on store shelves, so I was really pleased to find this on line. With three in the pack, I hope they'll last until I finally give up my iPAQ for a smartphone.
The product is just as advertised.
Thanks

These are supposed to be a replacement for the iPAQR1950 stylus. Well, they are close, but not exact. They do not fit snug in the stylus channel. When the iPAQ is inverted, they fall out. Yes, it's a stylus and yes it works, but it is a pain the the neck.Read Best Reviews of HP iPAQ FA113A#AC3 H1900 Stylus 3-Pack Here
