The PalmPilot leather case is an attractive way of carrying and storing your PalmPilot.However, the industrial strength velcro fastener that attaches the PalmPilot to the case is simply a bad idea. The Palm Pilot must be detached from the case every time you HotSync and this is annoying and inconvenient. But of even more concern is the fact that this frequent unfastening flexes the PalmPilot case, which in my case resulted in major damage to the electronics inside the device. There are better designed cases on the market which are more convenient and don't pose a threat to your PalmPilot.
