Hi Simon,

We don´t have plans to develop a case for that device.
Anyway, we really appreciate your interest in our products.

Ah, but what I don't want is a 'removable' belt clip, I want one that was
never there in the first place.

Yeah, I found it a little odd too. They are quite happy to produce cases for
the other new models, the rz1700 and rx3000 and hx4000, plus obsolete
models, yet not for the hx2000 series. Especially as I assume their good
spec (compact flash as well as SD was the seller for me) should make them
quite popular.

What are you using for yours Mark? As I said, I'm currently using a Covertec
model, but it's not ideal.

These are my requirements for a new case: Absolutely no belt clip (neither
fixed or removeable) - black leather throughout - not like Piel Frama who
use the natural colour for linings - no white stitching - and it has to look
good, not like some far eastern knock off.

www.casesonline.com make a nice looking 'Slim' model - see their website.
Their 'Flip' also has positive points, but oddly the design of the case
covers a great deal of the buttons at the bottom (not that I use them).

Si.

Cool. Their cases are pretty sharp looking, and you've peaked my
interest in owning one myself.

Here's what I sent:

"Hello.

There has been a recent discussion in a microsoft pocket pc forum on
the status of your organizaton developing cases for the HP hx2000
series IPAQs.

I just wanted to let you know as a business where our employees have
this model of pocket pc, there is some interest in your leather cases
for them.

Thank you for your time."

You might want to take a look at Bellagio: http://www.bellagiodesigns.com/
You can order them without the belt clip (Available either "with" or
"without" removable Spring Loaded Swivel clip) - I have this one:
http://www.bellagiodesigns.com/showcategory3.php/43 for my Toshiba e805 and
I am very happy with it. I don't see the hx2000 on their list, but it
wouldn't hurt to ask.
