By JT
My wife and I upgraded our Sprint phones to Palm Pixis in late 2009. A month or so after that the magnet (which holds the recharger flap closed) in my Palm Pixi backing cover fell out. I then purchased two touchtone cover upgrades for myself (black) and my wife (pink) at Palm's website. The touchtone back covers seem to be better than the stock back covers in that they seem more rigid/rugged and the dimpled backs make gripping easier (and visually look nice). However, within one week the magnet had fallen out of my new touchtone recharger flap leaving the recharging flap to "dangle it the wind". A week later my wife's pink touchtone cover also lost the magnet in the flap. Whatever glue Palm is using for the magnet just isn't working...batting .000 (0/3) in my experience.
If the recharger flap magnets did not fall out I would give this 4 or 5 stars because I think the cover is good build quality and I like the concept of being able to change out colors or worn covers. But, since I am 0 for 3 on magnet durability I have to give this 2 stars for now. I will try and reglue my magnet and see how that works out.

By Nathan Dekker
This backing is very nice... until the tiny magnet that holds the charging port flap shut comes off, which only took 2 days for me. Nice concept, everything else about the product is nice but the constantly open flap is very irritating, especially when you consider that I replaced the original factory''Palm'' backing because of quality issues as well.
UPDATE* The rest of the case is now peeling back away fromt the plastic. What a piece of garbage.

By mgk71
I purchased the touchstone cover for my wife's Pixi phone. It has a nice rubbery, textured feel to it. We haven't had any quality problems other reviewers have mentioned with the Pixi or its accessories. They all seem to be of high quality.
The touchstone charger is one of the best things about the newer Palm/HP phones. It's simple, easy and elegant. I would love to have something like this for my android phone. I read that a few other manufacturers are going to start offering something similar (Motorola Droid 3 and possibly the next iPhone). I'm sure Pixi phones and accessories won't be available much longer, so I would recommend getting it. If you wait too long this might not be available.
