How to Buy the Right Carry Bag for Your Ipaq PDA.
By Charlie Cory
Once you have purchased an Ipaq PDA you next step will be to
find a nice bag or case to carry it in. You want to protect your
investment with a durable case. You should also make sure that
your new case meets your needs. Bag-like cases offer you space
as well as safety. Learning about the different styles will help
you chose a case or bag that meets your needs.
There are some really good reasons to buy a case or bag for
your Ipaq PDA. The main reason may be to protect the PDA from
breaking. If you have a sturdy case it can protect your PDA if it is
accidentally dropped or stepped on. You can also protect your
PDA from weather conditions if you are going to be using it
outside often. Water damage to a PDA can be fatal.
You will probably get a generic case from the manufacturer with
your PDA. It will most likely be simple and constructed of
cardboard and plastic. It may work for simple protection, like
keeping your screen from getting scratched, but for more serious
protection you need to get another sturdier case. The
investment you make in a new case or bag is well worth the
protection you get for your investment in your PDA.
The types of cases vary from soft to hard covers. You can also
get extra storage. There are soft covered cases that open up
like a book with your PDA on one side and room on the other for
a notepad. There are hard cases that offer the most extreme
protection against any possible harm. Bag type cases are soft
and look like a mini duffel bag. They not only house your PDA,
but offer many different storage areas for your cell phone, a
small snack, car keys or whatever you need to take with you.
These bag type cases reduce the need for you to carry a purse
or other bag and use only your PDA case. Another thing you may
want to look at is how your PDA fits into the case. If you are
going to want to use your PDA while it is in the case and it is a
generic case that is not made specifically for your Ipaq then you
may end up with problems.
Buttons could be covered, the screen covered or speakers not
clear so the sound is muffled. If you hook connections into your
PDA often you should make sure you can do so while it is in the
case if you intend to keep it in the case while using. Check how
easy it is to put your PDA in and take it out of the case. Chose a
case that offers you the features you need.
Going over why you need a PDA case or bag and looking into the
different options in cases will help you chose the best case for
you. Be sure to consider how you use your PDA and if the case
will effect how you use it. It doesn't hurt to try on your PDA case
and give it a practice round to see how it will work if you actually
buy it.
