Some people settle – for whatever reason – on the stock …

This case is crafted from black Nappa Cowhide Leather and fits the naked (no expansion sleeves installed) iPAQ Pocket PC. Although this case is a typical E&B “Slipper”, it does have a …
For the Compaq iPAQ Right up front, I will tell you that the Rhodiana cases make me think of the years when my husband was a Security Specialist in the US Air Force. He had a gear belt that was loaded with items that looked like they were well protected in their holsters – which …

Product Requirements: Compaq iPAQ with PC Card Sleeve I am the first to acknowledge that adding the PC Card Sleeve to the normally svelte iPAQ creates a PDA with brick-like properties.

Product Requirements: Desktop: Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, or 2000 I’m a REX 5000 user, and I find the little device quite useful, though not quite “indispensable” as my cell phone would be.
