Matching Case (all colors) by Handspring

>> Read Review (Rating 3/5) <<

There are two Handspring logos on the case. One is a small, embroidered, full color Handspring logo in the lower right hand corner and another is stamped into the leather on the inside. This case is very similar to the Sage case. Made in the United States, the Ice case is 100% top-grain black belting leather and is accented with a color that complements your color Visor.

great looking, high quality case!
I just received my blue matching case and I love it -- the design, the size, the feel of the black leather. Just one problem -- the leather on the spine, the blue area, appears to be cracking up. When I removed it from the box, I could even see white areas where the blue leather had peeled away. Fortunately, the nice guys at Handspring customer service insisted that this was not the norm and kindly agreed to send me a replacement case. Assuming the average matching case doesn't have this problem, I recommend it highly.

Until Coach makes a Visor case, this is the one to get.
Sort of thick but feels good. Substantial yet portable. It's obviously supposed to be a designer case rather than a highly functional one. You can store a few business cards in there but not much else. Good quality leather. Would look great in a corporate meeting type setting. So get this one for the board meeting and a nerdy belt clip case for your day-to-day work.

Quality at a low cost!
I recently purchased the EB Slipper Visor and hated it. I even cut out little holes for the buttons in the plastic cover. Hot syncing was annoying as well. My blue leather matching case arrived two days ago, and I really like it. It doesn't add too much bulk, which I was worried about. It looks like it ought to be able to protect the Visor if I drop it. I like how the Visor pops out when I hotsync it. At $38.95 it wasn't bad.

Nice piece, good quality, unique
I love it! It's unique and different from all the other plain black/brown cases out there! The snap button works like a charm.

Good case for the price.
I've had a Green Matching case for some time to go with my Graphite Visor Deluxe, and I really enjoy it. Good protection, nice and small, and pretty classy looking. The green and black are a nice contrast, go well with the Graphite, and provide a little "something different" from the normal all-black cases out there. One drawback, not much room for anything more than a few business cards.

Excellent value (and Anonymous is a jackass)
I've had an orange matching case for a couple of months. It has broken in nicely, and has the look and feel of quality. It offers the screen good protection, and is about as small as it could be (which is why there is no space in it for all the stuff that is normally in your wallet). At $29.95 it is 5 bucks *less* than the foam Rhinoskin Shocksuit (but at least 20 bucks nicer -- the shocksuit is awful. I sent mine back within minutes of receiving it). All in all, I am very happy with it. Hey "Anonymous" (very clever) -- you prolly think you're pretty clever in getting your one negative review to count three times and therefore skew the survey. It's a disservice to the Visor community, and your comments make me wonder if you even own one of these cases. Do you work for a competing casemaker, by any chance? If there's a Visor Central administrator lurking -- how about removing 2 of the 3 votes that this bozo cast? Trew

nice, but could be better.
while i appreciate how well built this little case is; as a franklin day planner convert, i miss the storage space my dayplanner had; you know, all that garbage you collect with each day. Silly things like the mail, stamps, business cards. And could we possible have made this thing so it would close when you purchase it? It took nearly two days of having the empty case sit under a dictionary before the snap would stay closed. And the logo on the front is a simple plastic stick-on, not embroidered.
