Palm devices, particularly the Treo line, was popular with field workers and now with the Palm Pre Plus being used by current Palm users a rugged case was needed. OtterBox recently released their new Tandem Series that provides adequate protection in a fairly slim form factor.

Both sides of the Palm Pre Plus OtterBox case are visible in the plastic retail packaging.

Here you can see there are openings for the camera and flash along with a large speaker opening.

The case has OtterBox branding on the back and as you can see adds very little size to the device.

There are openings in the case for the 3.5mm headset jack and mute slider switch.

There are no openings on the bottom of the case and you can see the two parts of the case.

The right side has an opening for the microUSB port, which is important since the Touchstone charger does not work when the Palm Pre Plus is in the case.

There is a small ridge around the edges where the case wraps around the Pre Plus.

The closed Pre Plus does not have added bulk in hand.
