Anybody using a Body Suit with their Visor (not Prism or Edge)??

Some reviews at Amazon are saying yes, others are saying no...

I've been using one with my Visor Deluxe for a long time.

I used the velcro to attach the Visor hardcover into the case rather than velcro the Visor itself.

It's been working fine. I've got the one that unzips and then opens like a book rather than flip up or down. If you like this type of opening, it's fine.

There is a new version that unzips and then flips open. You have to move it around a lot to get it unzipped and it was a little hard to do with one hand. I prefer my style.

The only issues are:

Sometimes I find myself holding it at the wrong angle and my grafitti gets all messed up. This is because the style case has you end up holding the whole case, opened, across your open palm. I have to force myself to hold the Visor straight in relation to your hand.

The second issue is caused by digging for the stylus. Because of the position of the zipper near the stylus sylo, you really have to dig sometimes. This digging, puts pressure on the little grooves that hold the Visor snapped into the hardcover. Eventually, the sides of the grooves got worn down until the edges of the groove were no longer straight up and down. They are still strong enough to hold the Visor in, but pushing sideways on the Visor will allow it to wiggle at bit. It just doesn't feel firm, although it still won't fall out.

I suppose you could just velcro the Visor in... Also, there is another place for a stylus in the case itself (which would take care of that issue, but I keep a little pen there instead

The third issue is that it has credit card slots. I don't need credit cards with my Visor. I want business card slots, but business cards won't fit in those slots. There is still a larger pocket that will hold them, but

Duh, you asked about the Body Suit. I have the Data Suit.

Perhaps that is the flip style that I saw at the store?

I have the Body Suit and I love it! I Have my Vdx velcrod to it without the hard cover to save on thickness. I would never choose another case for my Vdx. It keeps everything so snug. I don't have any problem taking my stylus either. I also have the Matchbook CF adapter installed on mine without any space problems in the case. I would highly recommend it for any Visor user. If someone says they don't like it then it's because they are either way too picky or don't have their visor in right.

I fold the other side of the case behind and write on it without problems either. It's way easier to write in it without having to hold the whole thing open in your hand.

Just my 2 cents!
