Part of the reason I bought the zipped armor case is lint,sand, dirt, coins and stuff that are floating around in pockets/backpack, or at beach/parks, this way I keep all stuff out of the 505.
I like the extra compartments of the m-edge and the leather and all, so you have to decide for yourself which way to go. 29 dollars for M-edge leather case or 35 dollars for zipped armor hard case (nothing can enter through the headphone jack, and other openings on side and bottom of 505 to mess it up or fluids getting into it with the armor case when it's zipped and in pocket or backpack or purse if you are a woman). At least that's my reasoning. Not sure if fluids can enter through the zipper, but it offers more fluid/lint/dust/sand protection than the m-edge in comparing the 2 of them.

that's true, the book armor case is pretty sturdy. its just not pretty in my opionion.
although its easy to make the 700 water PROOF with a ziplock baggie with either case. I've don't that when I went to the beach, just put it in a ziplock, then put it in my medge case.
in fact that is what ill be doing fridya asuming the weather holds. (right now small chance of T storms, but it was like that the last 2 times I went to the beach too)
if there is one thing I agree on though is that the stock case is crap, the only thing it protects against is scratches, no shock protection at all, the medge and the book armor are both pretty shock proof.
