i see the jornada has a plastic cover that can go over there's does the ipaq?

nope

ok what ones do have this then?

yes they do it looks like the regular slip sleeve with a screen cover you can get it at compaq.com if you want cf too silver slider is also making a silver slider with the screen cover.

silver slider? what is that?

yeah but he meant a snapon cover like the jornadas. unless thats what you mean too?

and the silver slider is  slimmer version of the compactflash addon to use cf cards. or something.

im looking for anything hard that can protect the screen

Yes the ipaq has what your looking for the only problem is its attached to a blank sleeve wich means u cant use pc card sleeves or cf sleeves while using it. Here <br><br>http://www.compaq.com/products/handhelds/pocketpc/options/style_packs.html<br><br>^--First one on the page<br><br>But as i said before if the lack of exspansion is a problem the the silver slider V looks just like this but with a cf slot.

silver slider V<br><br>im sorry i still dont understand this, can anyone send me a link to a picture or anything? sorry to sound bothersome.

Do you even own an ipaq? Seriously do you know what a cf sleeve even is?

the cf sleve is the thing the expansion things like modems and stuff goes into right? i want to buy one tomorrow im trying to learn about them now right now im just into computers and i've used palms before to datalog cars, but ppc's are new to me

Ok well do you understand that you cant use that case i linked you to and a cf sleeve at the same time?

ok i think so....<br><br>robert you seem to know alot about them and it looks like you've been here awhile.  do you think the 3700 ipaq is a good ppc? i dont really have the money for the 3800 which seems to be a newer design.  but im sure the 3700 should suffice for me

Ok well i have no link to the silver slider V but its merely a cf sleeve made by someone else other than compaq that is thinner and has that lid included on it, i hope this clears some of your problems up.<br><br>As for the 3700 ya it kicks ass i wish i had one i have a 3650, although i think the 3700 has a 12bit screen just like the 36x series wich is ok but not as good as the 38x screen. i think your best bet for a good price is the @mig theres a link on the home page to it, it only has 32mb of ram but it makes up for it.
