Case Ideas
The 620 is a tad larger than other H/PC's and gives users the 'opportunity' to try out new case ideas. If you have any suggestions, let me know.
Customizing
a Mead 5-Star Planner
The case is a Mead 5-Star planner and costs around $10 at Wal-Mart. Take the planner part with the ring binder
out, then get some elastic and velcro and sew it in to secure your H/PC.
The cases also come in leather. Basically any planner will work as long as the ring binder is removable. Total cost was around $16 dollars. Advantages: you can customize it like YOU want it and there are several different styles to choose from.

The Pouch
The best Handheld, HPC, Palmtop, PDA and Laptop carrying case could be the least
expensive. THE POUCH, a protective cocoon made of bouncy neoprene bonded to nylon, has the very best ergonomic
design. Easier to carry, yet, if you drop it, ding it against a door or drench it, THE POUCH could save your computer's
life.
THE POUCH is not made in one "generic" model. Each is tailor-made to form-fit each Handheld PC
and Laptop. All HPC carrying-cases have big back-pockets and a belt-loop which closes with a sturdy, quick
release clasp.
Targus Cases
Leather Mini- Notebook Wallet #CH400: accommodates Mini- Notebooks like the Toshiba Libretto ® and a spare battery pack plus PC cards, credit & travel cards, business cards & a pen. Exterior Dimensions: 9.5x6.5x2. Space Available for Mini-Notebook, PDA or H/PC: 8.75x4.5x2
Case Logic Cases
PDA-1 Handheld Computer Case -- Organizer panel with slots for PC cards, business & credit cards, etc. Self-adhesive pads secure unit to inside of case. Said to fit 620 perfectly.
The DK-1 and ZDK-8 are zippered Nylon cases intended for 3.5 inch floppies and Zip disks. They measure 10.25 x 4.75 x 1.5 which gives room for the 620, though because of the thickness of the unit its snug. The ZDK-8 features a net/mesh type interior that you can stash PC cards in too. Can't beat the price -- $10 at most office supply and computer retailers.
The PDC-1 has a large main compartment and two outer pockets. It is a zippered Nylon case intended to tote your Zip Drive and accessories around, but your 620 and loads of stuff should fit great. It's under $20 at many computer retailers.
