If I put it in backwards the stylus and ports are accessible but I can't see the screen when I open it. While the TX fits well into it, I can't access the stylus or the ports for synching and charging. The case looks really nice and seems well made. But I never used it because the case seems backward for my TX.
Simply great.Protective, while still allowing you access to all the Palms feature and charging.No complaints whatsoever.
I would not recommend this case to anyone and would like to warn anyone that might want to try it. Then the belt clip broke. The last thing was that slide that holds the Palm in the case broke. This case is not worth the money. Look elsewhere. I glued that in place. The first problem was with the screw that hold the belt clip would not stay in the case. Then the clip would not hold onto the case.
The hinge opens along the long side like a book, so if you use it oriented that way the case kinda gets in the way. If I stick too many receipts in the back of the case the catch won't catch. Possible downside. I've used this case for over a year now. If you use it turned the other way (my preference) the case sits nicely in my hand for writing-awesome.Never used the belt clip, I've had terrible luck with those things no matter what they're attached to (phone, ipod, whatever.). I've even dropped it a few times. I carry my palm all the time in my jeans pocket, it goes everywhere with me. The catch that holds it closed works well, not hard to open (though with two hands).
You can charge and synch the Palm without open this case, unlike the original one. I've used mine for a month and I haven't have any problem with the plastic hinges that others described. It is somewhat difficult to open, though, that's why I give it 4 stars. I think that it simply does what the manufacturer says it does, which is to protect the Palm, and in my case I've found that it is so. I do recommend it. It does not rattle the Palm because it fits snuggly, unlike the original case. I use my Palm in my pants pockets, and I like the fact that it does not get scratches at all, like the Palm original aluminum case. It has a back opening for the tiny speaker, so I think you can hear alarms louder.
