FlipCover

Conclusion

The FlipCover offers a high level of screen protection, allowing you to safely carry your Visor in a pocket or bag without having to worry about screen damage like scratches, etc. It does not, however, offer any additional protection from falls or drops. It is a well designed and well constructed Visor accessory that is ideal for those that do not use any (or just an occasional) Springboard modules. When compared to the Flip-Clip with the Palm III reproduction lids, the FlipCover offers a much better fit and appearance at the expense of being able to use modules.

I have made the FlipCover a permanent accessory, using it to carry my VDx safely in the Handspring SportCase.
