Ok, quick, even if you love your iPAQ, what are the two things you wish it had? Take a big step forward if you said a cover and a CF card slot. Now get ready to click on that link, because if there's one thing I love, it's when vendors come to me with a special offer just for Thoughts readers. And this one is a dandy!
Let me present the new and improved Silver Slider 2 with a color cover:
(Blue is shown above, but they're also available in red, green, and silver)
Here's the short version: buy a Silver Slider 2 for $49.95 and get a free built-in colour cover...normal price for everyone else is $69.95, so you're saving $20 off the top, and for every product sold a few bucks come back to support this site. Everybody wins! This is a limited time offer, so order soon - it will likely only last ten days.
If you're not familiar with the Silver Slider, it's a design created by the famous "George M", a clever guy who thought the Compaq CF card sleeve was too bulky. He took his Dremel to the sleeve, and the rest is history - the result was a sexy Silver CF card sleeve that was thinner and lighter than the original. A company named PDA Motion came along and offered to mass-produce the Silver Slider and paid George a royalty (unlike the company in China who simply ripped-off his design).
Some of you may be asking "Is this the same PDA Motion that took forever to ship the last Silver Slider?". Yes, it is - but this time, things will be different. Unlike the problems from last year, they have the Silver Sliders in stock today, waiting for you to click that link. I'm also on an advisory board for PDA Motion (along with a few other Pocket PC industry-types), helping to guide them in product choices and market decisions.
And there you have it - I'll chime in later with more details and a review of the Silver Slider 2 w/Color Cover.
