Has anyone found a case that works well with Uniden PC100A. It has
buttons on left and right side similar to Nino. Thanks in advance !

Check the ones that say Nino.

271. CASES, CASE AND CASES, I HATE 'UM. (Updated 9-28-99)
I've bought 8 palmtop cases over the last 10+ years and they are gathering
dust in my closet or I gave them away. Why? When I want my data I want it
now! No zippers, no Velcro, no lids, no pockets, NOW! And another thing, I
now have 2 things to lose or carry when the device is out of the case.

If you want to carry yours around in one, though, check out these sites for
good ones, I hear. I have also included some dynamite reviews.

You might save yourself some money by looking at a CD carrier from Case
Logic at http://www.caselogic.com as both their CD-ROM (dual) cases and
their ZIP disk cases fit many units and cost under $20. The ZIP disk case is
padded and has belt loops as well as a shoulder strap and a hand strap. It
also has two zippered pockets for accessories. See pictures also at
http://www.caselogic.com/

Some go to the local Wal-Mart, Best Buy, Office Depot, etc. and purchase a
portable CD player carrying case that holds the unit, power supply, and some
even include a separate compartment for the manuals and cables. All this for
only $15.

One last comment. Manufacturers continue to force size down and consumers
continue to look/buy the smallest palmtop they can get and then carry it
around in a giant case. Are you one of those? Does that make sense? Me, I
want to be fast on the draw.

Hopefully this answer helped you and others that have read it. If it did let
