Thinskin

Gadgeteer Hands On Review by Julie

March 25, 1999

One of the first accessories available for the REX PDA is the ThinSkin Protector by Tech Center Labs. These slipcovers are designed to help protect your REX while maintaining the slim profile. The clear plastic front allows you to use REX without removing it. The various backings adds a touch of class and provide some friction to help keep REX in your shirt pocket. They also have a place to put a few of your business cards.

The ThinSkins are better than the case that comes with the REX because they don't have the little elastic bands that cover some of the buttons. You can use the REX while it's in the ThinSkin. The flap is also easier to fold under than the original REX case.
