The Palm V Slim Case by Dooney & Bourke is a leather cover specifically for your Palm V. It has one business card slot and is attached to the Palm V via the side stylus slot. I hesitate to call this a case as it really just protects the screen and back of the Palm V. The sides, top and bottom of the unit are left exposed. Also there isnt a snap or zipper to hold the cover closed. The This cover makes your Palm V feel like a small expensive leather bound book. The cover The cover is held in place by using the side stylus slot on the Palm V. A metal rail |

| (Dooney & Bourke’s first set of cases only had one O-ring at the very top of the rail which didn’t hold as well. Now that they use 3 rings, it works great. People that bought the first cases can get a free fix-it kit by contacting Dooney & Bourke directly.) I found that the cover didn’t want to completely lay flat when closed. |

The stitching and leather on the Dooney & Bourke slim case are all of the most
highest quality. Although this is a very well made case, it is hard to recommend it due to
its high price. But, if you like to have the finest leather cases, you should take a look.
Price: $49.95
