Owner Comments on the Newton MP2K Glove Review

Last date revised: 03/23/99

I was interested in buying a glove type case for my newt. I gave up.

The E&B was kinda nice.  The stiff padding for the screen cover was
wonderfully stiff and protective.  I found the leather for the top
part (the power switch & stylus area) a bit too thick for my comfort.
The idea of putting the velcro on the case cover was a superior idea.
The difficulty in accessing the PC cards was kinda silly.  It felt like
the newt was exposed too much when the zipper was undone.

I also looked at the Palmtree case.  the leather was nicer IMHO.  The
screen cover was way too flimsy.  PC card access was nicer.  The velcro
"snap" concept wasn't as nice as the E&B.  The Palmtree "snap" was
another thing that dangled around when you folded the cover back
on itself.
