Comments on: HandEra 330 Review http://the-gadgeteer.com/2001/05/15/handera_330_review/ Gadget reviews and news by Julie Strietelmeier and friends since 1997 Fri, 25 May 2012 14:37:48 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: vicicasas http://the-gadgeteer.com/2001/05/15/handera_330_review/comment-page-1/#comment-15103 vicicasas Tue, 10 Jun 2003 07:45:00 +0000 #comment-15103 What a coincidence, I just received my iPod case from Waterfield as well (i ordered a blue one for myself and a red one for my wife's ... we have matching 15GBs) as well as a medium gear bag for my firewire cables, Powerbook cords, wireless mouse, etc. I'm putting my case through its paces right now and noticed that it's a little difficult to access the Hold button through the slit on the top. But on the positive side, with the protective flap, there's very little chance of accidentally pressing a button or moving the dial, so no real need for the Hold button anymore. And I love the inside flap for earphones storage - no more winding my earphones around the case and then invariably losing a foam earpiece off one of the buds. (I'm on my third set!) Am extremely pleased with their product and service, and am quite impressed that it got to me in only 3 days from San Francisco, halfway around the world. Give them a try!

It is great gicing access to both to and bottom as well as having a flip to for access the buttons. In addition it comes with a removeable belt clip. Also bought the small gear bag to hold my headphones, remote and firewire cable so they do not get lost in the void, that is my bag. <a href="www.sfbags.com">www.sfbags.com</a> I have a 15gb Ipod and am using the new case from waterfield bags.

It's aluminum / a neoprene lining - tight fit (according to the reviews) but it can take a drop to concrete w/ no problems. Completely covers everything but the top ports - so you are stuck w/ the remote for navigation (or opening it each time you wanna change) I would also point you toward the iPod Armor. http://www.halfkeyboard.com – the case is $49.00 – but the reviews I have read suggest that it makes your iPod pretty bomb proof.

I don't think their current versions would work well with the latest models due to the new buttons above the touch pad. Hi Chris,

I’ll be sure to keep an eye on Vaja for their new iPod cases. I don’t think their current versions would work well with the latest models due to the new buttons above the touch pad.

They have a version for the 30GB iPOD in the works according to their site. I'm not sure if the current cases would work with the 30GB version or not... Anyway, you might want to check them out... Kind Regards, Christopher Spera Julie,
