Gun Fight at the X3 Case Corral
Posted by Pat Logsdon in "ARTICLE" @ 02:00 PM
"I love PDA accessories. And, among my favorite accessories, are PDA cases. If you've found this article, you know all about the incredible variety and choices offered from a number of different case manufacturers. In this article I will review four cases designed for the Dell Axim X3/X3i series Pocket PC. All of the cases reviewed in this article will work with either the X3 or the X3i. Some manufacturers make a separate model for the X3 (which won't accommodate the antenna of the X3i). You should consider that when choosing your case. I have referred to both models as the X3i for the purposes of this article.
Like ice cream, no one case "flavor" is best for everybody. Since we all have unique tastes, styles and needs, this review is only one person's opinion. This roundup will include brief descriptions of notable features of each case, along with a numeric rating of each case on five different factors: 1) Quality; 2) Value; 3) Functionality; 4) Style; and 5) Overall Rating. The rating is on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being ideal."
Ok, so there aren't any bullets involved (unless they're in Pocket Word, ha ha), and there's no corral, but PDA Buyer's Guide HAS put together a great shootout between most of the major players in the PDA case game. If you're looking for a good case for your X3, this review is an excellent place to start.
