Not had any lost in our office, but plenty with cracked screens and even cracked scanners! A couple of times I've been incredibly dimwitted and left it on the roof of the van and driven a few miles and luckily by some force of devine intervention, it stayed in place

I've done that with a bundle of mail, with no elastic band on. Luckily I was only driving about 100 meters. Still didn't end well

You questioned why they were not using a piece of equipment "like your supposed to" which is not compulsory or essential to use a PDA

A oen is essential to do our job a PDA holster is not

I've always found my pocket works just fine

or popping it on a wall, that works fine too. again, if its in a holster how can you possibly leave it on a wall other than by taking the holster off or taking it out? and why would you need to take it out the holster apart to maybe reboot the thing? if its in your pocket you'd need to take it out to scan a packet and you might leave it on a wall. a fear of holsters is pretty new i think.

They are a thing, apparently, but a bit like the Loch Ness Monster or Bigfoot. There have been claimed sightings and there is pictorial evidence, but trying to actually locate one will simply just leave you doubting any actual existence.
