 Armor is a good word for it April 25, 2008

When I got my Palm TX I was quite concerned that all that money I had spent would be blown if that fragile screen got broke. After adding the Armor Case, that fear is gone. This thing is solid and I don't worry about putting my Palm in my back pocket and sitting anywhere. The slots for the SD cards are handy too.

This case definitely protects the TX very well. It doesn't keep dirt and all the good little bits that can end up in your purse out but it stands up to my nephew. Unlike the picture my case only came with one slot for and SD card.

I bought this case after I received a Palm TX 2 years ago because I liked the sleek look. The case itself is sturdy and has protected my TX well, but aesthetically, it has not aged well and looks like it's taken a beating, even though it's only been sitting in either my attache or purse. The case is susceptible to scratches and blemishes that I can't seem to get rid of, no matter how hard I try. Although I should remember that "looks aren't everything" and that this hard working case has done a great job of protecting my TX these past 2 years, the metallic silver version is not for me, so I'm ordering the black version as a replacement.

This is a fairly solidly built and reasonably protective case for the Palm TX (I didn't try it with a Palm T5, but they are supposed to be practically identical in size/shape.) It has appropriate cutouts for all the important connectors and buttons, as well as the speaker.
This case is nearly identical to the Saunders-made "PalmOne TX/T5" case (Palmone Tungsten TX/T5) -- right down to the backwards SD card slots -- with a few minor differences.
1) The latch to open/close the case is slightly different. I actually think the latch on this case is easier to open, especially one-handed -- but it's also more likely to be knocked open while rattling around in a bag, since it sticks out more.
2) The backside, inexplicably, has four metal "feet" in the corners. I guess this would help it to stay more flat when laid on a table, but it also makes it more likely to scratch surfaces.
3) The belt clip with this one seems crappier. Neither case is one I would recommend for extensive on-the-hip usage, though.
4) The finish isn't quite as nice, and the hinge seems maybe a little more fragile. On the other hand, this case does come in black as well, while the other one is only in silver.
5) The cutouts are simpler on this case, and maybe a tad less protective on the top of the PDA.
6) The Saunders model comes with a free StuffBak recovery label (they offer a small cash reward for return of the item, and you can post an additional one. Two years of service are included free with their case, and after that they charge you something like $25 if your item is lost and returned to them.)
Ultimately, I went with the Saunders case. However, if you want a T5/TX case with a black finish, this is probably the best choice available.

I have a Palm TX that I use multiple times per day at work. The last PDA I owned did not have a hard case because I couldn't find one to fit it. After several times of being dropped, it was trash. The screen cracked & the buttons were out of place. So, before buying my next PDA I made certain that I could get a hard case to fit it perfectly. The Palm TX with this case are a perfect combo. It is a little on the heavy side, but definately sturdy. I use it ALOT & so it has been dropped a few times, with no damage. There is a cushion lining in the case with two slots for memory sticks. It snaps closed firmly & has openings in all of the right places so you don't have to open it to charge, hot sync, remove/insert a card, or turn on. It has an opening in the back for the TX speaker. You won't be sorry
