I have a case very similar to this. It is the Pelican Micro Series 1060, availible here as the "Large Gear Box". Seeing as it is the same idea, my review will cover the important facts about the 3000 Series.
Build
This case is thick, and strong. The website boasts that it is water and crush proof, and based on my "quality assurence testing" (in the shower, and dropping it on the driveway), it lives up to this claim. While not gorgeous, it has this clunky, maybe a little cool look (not saying you can exactly show it off as your latest fashion item, but it isn't terrible). There is lining on the inside that assures you that anything you put in it will stay scratch-free. I don't think you could "take this to the streets" with you, but it is great for carrying on a plane or otherwise traveling.
Functionability
This case will, most certainly, stand up to abuse. You can beat this thing around, and it will come out smiling (see my quility assurence testing policies above). I can put in my PSP, two Sour Altoids UMD casesand my Ear Clip Headphones (not availible from this site) with plenty of room to spare (Sorry if this isn't the exact amount of volume in the 3000 Series, I have a slightly different one). The 3000 Series has plenty of room for almost all your stuff.
Value
This case is pretty well made, but I think $30 or so is asking alot for a case that is not suitable for all situations (it does not collaborate well with social functions, such as school dances). I personally think you'd be better off with the [url=http://www.psp411.com/show/product/298/0/Logitech_Playgear_Street.html]Logitech Playgear Street[/b] if this is the type of case you are looking for (very sturdy, not incredibly portable)
Summary
This is a medicore case. There are more stylish alternatives. However, it does so what you ask of it.
Pros
• Strong, durable
• Good for travel
• Can be used for other things
• Holds all your stuff
Cons
• Not all that good looking
• Not great for just walking around with
• Logitech Playgear Street would be a better alternative
• Slightly pricey for such a simple case

I had my PSP in my backpack while riding to a friends house when I took a nasty fall due to a #$%& driver not paying attention. I have to say my PSP was safe thanks to the 3000 series from S3 Inc. I can't say the same thing for my knee. Trust me I'll be contacting S3 to thank them. Using my PSP more now that I'm down and out for a while. S3 YOU ROCK !!!
