I have a 3700 Ipaq with the CompactFlash sleeve. It fits nicely into this case. Inside, behind the PDA, is a pouch that is deep enough to let me store my Targus CompactFlash modem, if I want, or to stick another CompactFlash memory card or two.

The belt loop on the back has a velcro patch that holds the loop securely closed. This is really handy because you don't have to take your pants half-way off to put the case on your belt - just open the velcro, slip it over the belt, and close the velcro again. The nylon construction is very sturdy.

Yeah, it gets in the way occasionally, just like anything hanging on your belt does. But when I'm on the go, there is no handier way to haul my PDA than in this case.

This camera helps me stay in touch with family on the east coast, i bought one for me and one for my parents. before we would only be in contact once a month, now i can send them pictures, and they can do the same, the camera is a lifesaver. and its so afordable, im going to buy a few more as presents from friends.

I recently purchased a HP Laptop model zd7000. Finding a carrying case for a laptop with a 17 inch screen isn't easy. Most cases built for a laptop this size are closer to $100. Even though the case was made for IBM Thinkpads, it showed dimensions big enough for my HP, so I ordered it. The case itself is a superior product in construction. My HP wouldn't fit with the air cushions in place, but they are only held in by Velcro, so once they were removed, my computer fit perfectly. Anybody that's wanting a case for an extra large laptop that wants a reasonably priced case, this is for you.

I love this bag! I like the fact that it is different than the usual black notebook case -- this one is dark khaki-green nylon with brown leather trim and brushed gold-colored metal fixtures. Has an adjustable, removable shoulder strap (with a nice wide padded section) as well as a briefcase-style carry handle. It is large enough for a 17" notebook but it works well for my 15.1" computer, with plenty of extra room for accessories and more. Well padded interior, and velcro strap inside keeps computer snug. I bought mine directly from CircuitCity.com, which saved me about $10 -- CircuitCity.com offers free shipping on this item.

Since I use my Zip drive on my laptop, I needed a place to store the drive when it wasn't in use. The drive, cables, and disks fit perfectly in their own compartments.

I just purchased the Kensington 4-Button Expert Mouse USB/PS2 Trackball. I have to admit that I have used this same mouse at work for several years and have found it very easy to use. I was having some discomfort when using my previous mouse, but the Expert Mouse is very comfortable to use. The programable buttons allow me to set up the buttons to fit my small hands.

The Mouseworks Software is simple to install and use. I plan on trying some features other than basic click and double click.

The Expert Mouse that I had at work was extremely reliable, and I anticipate that this one will be too. Thanks to receiving a cash gift for my retirement, I am able to finally have a mouse at home that I can use for an extended period of computer use without a lot of discomfort.

This was my first order from Amazon.com and I am completely satisfied. The package came more quickly that I had anticipated. It was great to be able to use my new Expert Mouse to access the Internet and to write this review. Thanks you,

This laptop/notebook carrying case is wonderful. It is durable and you can hold many things besides your laptop or notebook. For instance, I hold a lot of my business papers, computer disks that hold various things I need, and CDs that I use for both entertainment (such as music or games) and/or business (such as business programs and presentations that I have "burned" onto the disks). There is quite a bit of storage space, and it holds and protects the laptop or notebook very well. I travel a lot and it has been very useful on my travels. I can carry just about anything I need in it. I sometimes do not even use it for carrying my laptop! For example, sometimes when I travel I use it to hold clothes or things of that nature. It is a very versatile product. You can hold almost anything. I am not trying to advertise this product as a luggage bag or anything like that, but I just want people to know that you can use this for carrying many, many things. I was very impressed with its versatility and durability. I am very glad that I have this because I do not know what I would do without it!

A fair deal; the insurance policy is only good up to $1500, but the requirements are not onerous (you register online, and then you must file a police report within 72 hours after theft, you must mail them within seven days.) They pay the blue book value of your computer, whatever that is. The policy is only good for a year, however, and it's a bit of a pain to renew it (e.g., you have to call them after 11 months, and there's a $15 fee, which they reserve the right to raise as much as they like.)

You need to return both keys, and although there is no duty to show them a cut cable or to give proof that you really locked your machine, the police report probably has to check out (i.e., you are only covered if your computer was locked up securely per direction.)

Anyway, yes, it's peace of mind, with a bunch of qualifications.

The cable itself is nice, looks sturdy, and is flexible enough not to be a pain. I'm not sure if I'd leave my computer locked up in a hotel room with it, but for semi-secure locations like a shared common work area, it's ideal.
