I'll be buying the extended warrenty for the 1 time screen replacement soon, but I hope to not ever need it.

1. Get the extended warranty. It will be worth it! (And I RARELY every buy these things!)

2. If you are using a laptray, use a non-skid pad to keep your Visor fom slipping off. I think it makes a lot of sense to put a strip of non-skid material around the edge of the tray, but for a Visor, you may want to use some of this to create an 'island' to park the Visor. Dycem is best, but Radio Shack offers a sticky pad now (for cars, but it will work here as well!), and 'Router Pad' (Vermont American) from the hardware store, or non-skid drawer liner from any housewares dept. will work as well.

3. If you just have the dropsies, try the Fellowes or other bumper case and consider adding a tether. The Fellowes case offers a pair of attachment points for a neck lanyard or something similar that you could attach to quite easily. Some of that self-coiling keychain cord would work nicely!

Re: Re: Cases

With as many times as I've dropped my Neo, yep, gonna get the extended warrenty when I get paid.

No laptray (manual wheelchair), but the lanyard is a great idea. I already use one for all the ID cards I have to carry for my volunteer work (Search and Rescue, ARES/RACES, Red Cross). *grin* Adding the PDA case to it so it lays on my lap should not be a problem. The cord is LONG.

Thanks for the suggestions!
