Palm handheld cases are usually made of metal or leather. Boxwave’s just-released ActiveCase goes a different way - it is made of a PVC-like glassy substance. Let’s review!

My review sample was shipped with ‘regular’ mail.

The ActiveCase is packed in a blister. Just for giggles, the front shows a Palm Tungsten E with TomeReader installed.

An ActiveCase appears very thin. It does not weigh much, either. You flip the handheld into its case. A little bar on the left locks the handheld in place by docking into the silo.

Our E2 handheld sits firmly in the case. There are cutouts for the hardkeys at the front - the case doesn’t need to be opened in order to access those. While this can come in handy, it increases the probability for the machine to boot on its own. Reset button and speaker get cutouts, as well.
