Where to buy Edge flip cover?

I dropped my Edge the other day and it landed full force on the hinge of the flip cover. Fortunately, nothing was damaged but the hinge itself.

I'm looking to buy a new flip cover assembly (in blue). I went to Handspring's website to order one, but they want $20 for the cover and $8.50 for shipping. While a little high, $20 for the cover is fine. I refuse to pay $8.50 for shipping something that would fit in a envelope with a 37 cent stamp.

Anybody know where I can get a blue flip cover at a more reasonable price?

Thanks,

Mike

Thanks. They didn't have the cover in blue, but for $1.99 I ordered a silver one as a backup. I also ordered an extra springboard adapter just in case ($5.99). With Handspring discontinuing the Edge, I want the extra parts to keep my baby going.

I'm going to keep looking for that blue replacement cover.

Thanks,

mike

Canibalize!!

Hey,

Is the original damaged? You can easily take apart the blue flip cover, take apart the silver flip cover and swith. I have also seen the flip covers in RCS and Staples if you want to spend $20.
