Conclusion

I really like the Smartphone Experts CombiFlip Case and I've found it to be another one of my favorites. I like that you can use the case with or without the flip cover. Having easy access to the keyboard, screen, and all the ports and buttons is very important to me, and this case provides all that. It's great having the five colors to choose from and the leather is really pretty. The leather on the Black case has a smoother feel than the leather on the Saddle Brandy case. The Saddle Brandy leather has more of an orange peel texture. Both cases are beautiful and go great with my Copper Treo 680.

I do wish that there was an option to not have a belt clip post built in for those of us who don't carry our cases on a belt. The profile would be much smoother and thinner without a belt clip post. Also, I found the plastic material of the belt clip to be very lightweight and I'm not sure how strong it would be. The spring in the clip does have a strong resistance though and I figure the clip would hold an encased Treo very well.

So the case looks great and provides great protection, plus has some very nice features. Your Treo certainly won't go anywhere while in the case because it's a nice, snug fit. The price is right at $39.95 for a convertible case made of premium grade leather. If you're looking for a classy looking convertible case for your Treo, the SPE CombiFlip would make a nice choice.
