If you ever wish for some extra protection for your valuable palmtop, I have found just the thing. Sears/Craftsman sells a great little hardcase called the "Permanex Utility Case" and it only costs $4.99.

Craftsman Part #965283

It almost exactly fits a 200LX and HP AC adpater. It is just a little deep, so I cut up an old mouse pad and placed it under the palmtop then lined the whole underside of the lid. This gives it more protection and keeps everything from sliding around.

My only complaint is that you have to kink the strain relief of the adapter's power cable a little and that may shorten the life of its connection a bit.

Here are some pictures of the case loaded with goodies and then closed up ready to take a hammer blow (no, not really!)

If you go with the next size up case (part #965284) you can fit even more accessories in and not have to kink the AC adapter's strain relief. Thanks to Alex Jones at Hewlett-Packard and Ales Umlauf at Radanal S.R.O. for the photos.
