	Awesome Case.
User: Ryan Dean, Feb 15, 2008

I just got the silver one and it is indeed awesome, the only problem i have with it and this may be that i was mistaken in my thinking when buying a case, is that it puts a protective window over the screen so when the case is on there is no way of utilizing the touch screen, however it opens very easily ( I think i was thinking more of skin like than case when i bought it). Still overall an awesome case, nice feel, and a really nice look.

Nice Case

Pros:	sleek, solid, cushioned for shock
Cons:	Why do case manufacturers put plexi glass over touch screens?

It is very, very good and worthy of a 5 rating. But, who are these engineers that cant give us an open touch screen option? Some times I think product designers of all stripes and colors dont ever think of real world use.
I used a dremmel tool with a tungsten cutter bit to cut out the plexi window. Sanded it off and I did what should have been done in the first place. Now I have easy access to my touch screen and I use after market screen protectors for the screen. So There!!!

Buy this product and cut out the screen if you dont like it.

Great Protection, but.....

Pros:	Exceptional droppage protection
Cons:	Bulky, ugly, uncomfortable, touchscreen is unaccesible

I got this case just for the sake of reviewing it. I always drop my phone, and I wanted to get a case because I swear my phone is falling on the ground more than it is in my hands. I first noticed how terribly ugly and bulky this case was, but was drawn in by its great protective features. Alas, I payed retail for my phone ($350) and I do not want to break it and invest any more money into it. So I gave the silver Monaco case a shot.

After having it for only two days I took it off. Of course in two days I happened to drop it on rough asphalt. Although during mid-drop I was not worried because I knew that my phone was safe and comfortable wrapped in metal, seated in rubber, and would definitely not get damaged. Of course the case and phone was completely unharmed.

Unfortunately, the more I looked at it, the more I disliked it... I already didnt like the thickness of the Centro, and this case ads quite a bit more bulkiness and weight. Let alone the belt clip, even without the clip attached, kept getting stuck on the edge of my pocket. And without any company logos it appears to be cheaply built, and makes it look like your fine piece of Palm equipment, is some sort of military walkie talkie. Also, when I held it in my hands, it just felt big, heavy and uncomfortable.

Overall I give this case a 4 for protection (because I only dropped it once), and a 1 for appearance.
