Review|HTC TyTN II Crystal Case Black

My friend Jose hooked me up with a crystal case for my TyTN II... Thanks a lot pre!

Installing the case was pretty straight forward you just snap it on the device and viola!

First impressions: well the glossy black finish is nice to look at. However it is a fingerprint magnet and it's a bit slippery. Good thing I also bought a shorter and thicker handstrap yesterday. It's not as heavy as my aluminum case which is a good thing. I can also use the device without having to open the case. Keep in mind though that the screen is not protected anymore with this case. Since it's a use through design you can access everything from the stylus to the ExtUSB port to the microSD slot which is a good thing. All the buttons and indicators are also very usable with the case on.

WindowsMobile (previously PocketPC and currently WindowsPhone) once the dominant mobile OS, yes folks before the iPhone came into power Microsoft slowly but surely killed of it’s main competitor palm OS, which was acquired by hp last year and is now barely a sliver of a shadow of it’s former former former self. Just this week hp/palm unveiled 2 new smartphones the palm Pre 3 and Veer, as well as their entry into the tablet space with the TouchPad. hp being one of the top computer manufacturers at the moment has the resources to use and spread webOS like a creamy peanut butter across all markets they are in.
