Well, according to the web site, "All cases have double-hinged covers that fold completely out of way."

So, I think the door can fold all the way back for better access to the Treo.

I did regular shipping when I got the aluminum case and had it in a matter of days. Definitely under a week.

Did you buy directly from Innopocket? Their site says 3 to 4 weeks for regular shipping.

Just wait a bit longer and TreoCentral or Ipaqcases or some other discount vendor will have the case. Then it will be cheaper and will ship faster. Reviews will be out by then too.

i would love to see a side by side comparrison of this and the alluminum case. i have the alluminum and it's way too big for me. i want to see if this form factor is a little smaller.

yay for magnesium!

**TreoRock** · 06/05/2005, 03:48 AM

From Mr Peter Arts today. "Sammy, Got the following today from InnoPocket. Their new magnesium case for the Treo 650 can now be pre-ordered via this link. This offers all the advantages of their aluminum case, plus a slimmer form-factor, stronger/lighter metal, and a double-hinged lid that will fold completely out of the way of the Treo's keyboard."

I currently use the form fit leather case from Palm/Handspring on my Treo 650 since I keep my phone in my pocket. Any ideas whether this magnesium case will be too thick for my pocket?

**TreoRock** · 06/05/2005, 02:36 PM

The aluminun case add a bit of bulk to the Treo, but the magnesium case should add less bulk and weight less.

Has anyone actually question how the SD cards stay in there?
It looks like 2 normal SD Slots and the SD cards click in like a regular Slot.
And they cards stick out like that normally and not covered.

I'd be very afraid to put my SD cards in this case like that.

They've now added that bumped out area on the back to hold the SD cards. If anything I'd say this case is going to be bulkier.

Got mine preordered

Yay!

I have the aluminum innopocket case, and the problem I have with it is that the microphone is pretty much covered up by the case, so people I have been speaking to have said that my voice is a bit muffled - it is much clearer when the case is removed.

Its difficult to tell, but it looks like this could still be an issue with the new case - anyone have more info on that?
