The Jimi Wallet - Unique Non-Wallet

I just found out about the Jimi Wallet from this zap2it article. It's the first wallet that've seen made of translucent plastic. It's a mix between a credit card wallet and a money clip wallet with a modern touch. The plastic case is big enough for some credit cards, your id and a few bills. The bills can be separated from the cash with a detachable money clip. The hard plastic case is ideal for those you want to protect the wallet contents during recreational activities. A hole on the corner of the Jimi can be used for a strap so you can wear Jimi around your neck. The hole also can be used for your key ring to use as a key chain.

Some things that impressed me about this wallet and the Jimi website:

• only $14.95
• only $3.05 for shipping and handling
• made in the USA
• made with recycled and recyclable material
• site includes customer comments that are not all positive

Here are some of the non-ideal customer comments that they included:

One of the advantages that the Jimi has over other clip-style wallets is that one can have ID on each side, but unfortunately, even w/ the 'clear' plastic it's not quite transparent enough to be able to show it without removing from the holder. Personally, I think this would be rather convenient if there were an ever clearer version in this case for things like student id's, etc.

It is a cute little thing, but I dont think I will use it. I thought it would be a little more substantial. Also, I expected it to have a cord for the little hole in the corner.

Apparently, it's becoming something of a fashion statement. The zap2it article mentioned that celebrity couple Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake have matching light "sea glass" green ones. Glad to see something that costs only $14.95 is becoming a fashion statement.
