| Conclusion The
XIGMA EM-500 PDA case has every appearance of a quality product. I
can't say much about its design because I haven't been able to
actually test it with an EM-500 Pocket PC. But as far as I can tell,
it was well manufactured and very nicely packaged. It will make a
great gift.
The case itself is going for USD 59 (~RM 224) while the belt clip
will cost an extra USD 10 (RM 38). So, this particular EM-500 PDA
case will set you back by USD 69 (~RM262). A little pricey, if you
ask me, especially the cost of adding the belt clip, which is
nothing more than an ordinary plastic clip. Of course, they will need to add a
metal insert to the case as well but is that so expensive?
Personally, I would have preferred the threads to be black as
well. The pictures on the site show that the threads are black but
the case I received had white threads. Some people may not like this
so if you are considering of buying a XIGMA case, make sure you tell
them exactly what you want.
You should also take note that no matter what their website says,
none of their cases will fit the E-125 Pocket PC. It would be
prudent of you to confirm with them if their case will actually fit
your PDA. As far as I know, they are only having problems with this
particular model because someone screwed up and told their marketing
people that the EM-500 case would also fit the E-125...
The case isn't cheap but it's made entirely of cowhide and
goat suede. If you want something durable and classy, well, you just
got to pay for it. It's good to note that XIGMA is providing a free
leather care kit with all their cases. Therefore, all in all, it's a
pretty good deal. Just make sure you tell them what you want exactly
before you buy the case.
