Mobile Device Cases and Screen Protectors

A second Sidekick III case came in yesterday. It doesn’t work well. The first one had a leather-like cover and interfered with my interactions with the Sidekick. This one fits too loosely and gets in the way of using the device.

I spent too much time searching the Internet for case reviews and suggestions. With so many devices on the market and almost all of them having unique shapes and sizes — it adds up to a whole lot of cases. The same goes for screen protectors.

If you have a case for a mobile phone, handheld or other mobile device and a case or screen protector that you like — please share what device you have along with the brand / model of the case or screen protector. It’d give people a resource for when they’re in need of a good quality case or screen protector.

I can recommend two screen protectors and one case. Just not for the Sidekick III. For the Palm Tungsten III, I use the PA72 classic Vaja Case (didn’t pay that much) and mine is completely black.

For the same device, I use Brando WorkShop Screen Protector. I’ve had it for three years and it still works. It has a couple of bubbles, but they appear on the sides. This happened after I removed the screen once ages ago and couldn’t get the bubbles out. The first time I put it on, it had little or no bubbles. Unfortunately, the site doesn’t sell any for the Sidekick III.

The Dell Axim x51v has WriteShield Crystal Clear protecting its face. No bubbles at all and it works great.

Screen Protectors
NuShield nushield.com
Used on 4 devices
Treo 755p
Sony Clie UX50
Palm TX

While I have some reservations about each of the devices I have used the NuShield Protectors have worked very well & are relatively easy toput on &take off (reuseable & cleanable).
