ec914Great case!

Thumbs Up

I love the case. It's the perfect fit and feel for my visor. All my friends are impressed on how well it fit the visor. It's a little pricey, but it's definitely worth it.

jsdLooks good! works well.

Thumbs Up

I like it because my visor still fits in my suit coat pocket with the case on. I has room for some business cards, a small notepad, credit cards, or whatever you want to put in it's pocket.

AnonymousIt Rocks

Thumbs Up

I use it as my wallet as well as my carrying case. It only holds about 3 cards, but that is all I need. I even put my key card for work in it and don't ever have to worry about losing it.

AnonymousThis is a good case

The two dark colours create a nice contrast. It would be nice to have increased protection on the sides but hey it's the appearence that counts right?

rtalainI love the case, but. . . .

Thumbs Up

My only negative comment is that the cover contacts the screen when it is closed. I know this because I use a WriteRight and there is a V-shaped smudge on it that matches that of the pocket on the inside of the cover. Filling that pocket with business cards, cash, etc., only makes it worse. I doubt it does any functional damage (at least with a WriteRight) and I hardly notice the smudge anymore, but it might really bother some people. BTW, if you use a Pentopia Slimline Twin Point stylus (also reviewed here) in the stylus pocket, it will not fall out. This is because it's not very heavy and has a clip to hold it in if necessary.

vProblem not mentioned

Thumbs Down

The review fails to mention what I consider a big problem with the design of the Premier line of cases and that is the method used to house the stylus along the spine of the case. There is a pocket area sewn into the spine that accepts a stylus through a punched hole. With the case open the stylus slides into the picket and "appears" to be secure. However, when the case is closed the tension on the pocket is released somewhat and the pocket looser than it was when folded open. With a heavy stylus (PDA Panache), there is nothing to hold the stylus in this picket and it will fall out. The problem increases as the case is used and the pocket stretches, slightly. If you carry the case in your hand you will lose your favorite stylus. The design could be improved by adding a wrinkle of leather above the pocket that would place a small amount of tension on the stylus.

DudeGreat looking case!

Thumbs Up

I have the wilderness nubuck and like it alot. I would say it is more black and brown, instead of dark brown and brown. That is great because it looks right with more clothing options. Yes, I do care that the case matches my shoes and with black and brown, I'm covered for all my options. The only bad part is the stylus holder. It does not firmly hold the stylus and I have many times nearly lost my stylus from it falling out! However, if you really push the stylus into the pocket, it is less likely to try to escape.
