These are the original cases designed by ePods for the ePods0ne. While quantities last.

Let me be a testimonial. I have one of these cases, and they are much nicer than the pictures suggest.

Looks nice, but from past experience with other devices I find I'm a lot more happy with a "flip case" that stays on all the time, rather than a "slide in" case that I have to fumble around with, particularly when the device is something like this, where half the point of it is for it to be immediately ready to use. My first Palm case was a "slide in" and it seemed nice at first, but once I tried a "flip case" style, I never wanted to go back. Of course your mileage may vary.

Folks, Check the oriniginal case link in a few days. I may be able to get my hands on 10 more cases. There is one available on eBay now. Patience....

I received my Original ePods case today. I have to agree with Randy, the pictures shown so far don't do it justice. I will take some (hopefully better) pictures and put them up on the ePods32 website. The problem is that it is hard to photograph a black case.

I also ordered one, and am really pleased with it.

I like the thin layer of gel padding they've added to the outsides.

I also agree. I got my "original" case yesterday (thanks astroid!) and it's very nice! Sure it's not the kind that you flip the top and the screen is accessible, but it's just what I needed for my epod on the go!

cheers,

For a carrying case I have been using a case by Caselogic http://www.casedirect.com/cgi-bin/sgin0101.exe?UID=2001032212224197&T1=15+PSC+1+K&GEN0=top_blend.jpg&UREQA=2&FNM=00
It is a great case and protects the epods well. The epods also fits in snug, also has a pocket for cords and such. It is only 19.95.

Like ngav, I am also using the CaseLogic case. I added a small piece of corrugated plastic sign material inside to act as a rigid screen protector. That way when I have the various cords, ac adapter... in the side pocket the screen will be protected from damage if something heavy pushes on it or it bounces against something (like happens too often with my kids!).

Got my case on Friday. Thanks again, Asteroid. You have set a very fair price for these. From the looks of things, you could probably sell them for $20 to $30 more on eBay.

Just received my case today. Pretty sweet. Keeps the dust off, protects the ePods, and
is original equipment. Can't ask for much more!!!

Thanks for the comments folks.... I am glad you like them. I am running out quick. As you can imagine, there are no more when I am sold out. I own ALL of the original cases that were made. There are NOT enough for everyone. First come, first serve. Sorry if I sound like I am selling but I am... I could sell them all on eBay but this "private" community deserves first shot....

Thanks again,
Astroid

Asteroid,

Should we be concerned that your email address is tomc@epods.com ?

Not trying to be paranoid or anything, just wondering.

Thanks.

Nope. It doesn't mean a thing. I just want to get rid of these cases. The few folks that bought them are very happy. It looks like I'll be out of them in a week. Get them while they're available.

Thanks,

For those of you who have purchased and received a case - Thank you. Please ad your comments here for the group. Unless you ordered today, they all have been shipped. I honestly only have 15 left and then they are gone. Trust me, there are no more available. (I may hold a few back for eBay).

For those of you on the fence, buy it now. Depending on how many sell tonight, I'll be changing my order page to send me an e-mail to order. I'll send a Pay Pal request back if I have any cases left. I do not want to oversell. To everyone who has one - Are you happy?

Thanks,
Astroid

I purchased three very early and I'm very happy with them. I am storing two of them now for my "collection" or to give as a gift to any very special person who might receive a gift ePods from me [this, of course would be someone who would apprecate the significance of the rare, original case]

We have loads of dust here so the case is perfect for my #1 e-Bub that makes numerous wireless trips around the house and then is set down while doing a task needing my full attention.

In addition to dust protection, the cover has protecteced #1 e-Bub from kitchen and "reading room" water splashes AND most importantly..!!!!!... protection from the giant "slingers" that my herd of GIANT Bubs manage to deposit on ANY exposed surface. BTW...TURNER and HOOCH was quite an exageration BUT we have measured "slingers" appraching 24" [not the usual] and it is pretty amazing how far, in any direction, they can sling them!!!!

Get at least one case if only to be "kool"

FYI: I finally got around to updating the case section on the ePods32 site. I put up new pictures of the ePods Original case and an updated description. I also put up a page comparing the two revisions of Mead Folio cases.

Glitch, Why don't you add the link here. Now I gotta search for the original cases post. Guess its bookmark time.

Astroid: Got in on the original slip case too, they ARE real nice, and I appreciate you selling the bulk of them here for reasonalbe prices. Have you found any other cool leftover Epods stuff? How bout an original Epods wireless Keyboard?

Grotch: Just click on the little icon in your browser shaped like a house. That should take you directly to the ePods32 page. What !?!? You mean that everyone doesn't have their browser set up like that .

The cases page is here. I just reorganized the site today so bookmarked links to within the site will be broken. The main link and its mirror have not changed.

Sorry about the link changes. I didn't think about that until it was too late. After the 5 hours it took to get the sites back running today, I'm not likely to change things back. I should have followed the sage advice: if it ain't broke...

No such thing as a wireless keyboard for the ePods as far as I know. Genovations and iBIZ make a serial win CE compatible keyboard. It is a small footprint and works great.

http://www.genovation.com/computer/index.html

From what I heard, the cases were the only things made that had the logo on them. I am not aware of any other original ePods items available other than replacement stylus and chargers.

I am glad you are all happy with the cases. I am al$o.

The question of the day is what shall I do with the list of hackers that I have accumulated.......hmmm......I now have the names, home addresses and e-mail addresses of many people who have violated the terms of use and terms of sale for ePods....hmmm....

Good thing it is April fools day or I could get more than $29.99 out of you cheaters....
