I bought this for my Treo 700 when I had it. It no longer fit in my iPhone horizontal case, but fits well in the Palm Horizontal Case for Treo 650, 700. It served me well then. Now I have an iPhone 3GS and I've put a Speck protective case on it. So I continue to use it everyday and really appreciate its style and function. Highly recommended.
I like this case because the design works, it's well made, looks classy, and the hidden card/bill/key pocket inside is smart. Wore it well.
I order the case for a Treo 650. When it arrived, I couldn't even fit it into the case, it was too small. I did return it, but I had to pay the postage.
I also like the magnetic flap that holds the phone in place, I've never had an accident with this flap over the 3 years I've been using the case. I have gone through a few of these. When I upgraded to a Treo 755, I used the old worn out case from my 700p and eventually bought a new case for the 755. Another thing I like about the case is the clip which fits nice and tight on my belt, no worries about it falling off, which has happened with other fancier clips I've used. Which is why I'm here today, to order a new case, and at this price, I'm ordering two. Now, I use an HTC Touch Pro and prefer this case to the case that came with the HTC.
I should mention that I'm a mechanic and use this case everyday at work and do not treat it nicely. The first one I wore out with my Treo 700p. The only issue I have is that after about a year the clip starts loosening up and looks like it's going to fall out of it's slot. The HTC fits a bit loose in the case which isn't an issue. The main reason this case is so nice is that it has an internal pocket to hold my SD cards. This is when I pour glue down the slot and order a new one.
Pros: Strong clip, good magnetic clasp, internal pocket for holding SD cards, nice size, price.Cons: Clip lasts about a year (under hard use) and needs glue or replacing.
The one exception is the belt clip. The fit is great. This case is almost perfect for my Palm Treo 700. It takes three men and a dog to get it on or off the belt. The leather is soft and of very high quality. The magnetic closure is the best I've seen, with no alignment required yet very secure. It is so tight that I think you could tear the case getting it on or off unless you pry it off with something like a pen. I don't know what they were thinking putting such a tight clip on such a great case.
