I just got my Bookport case yesterday. I think that the material is pliable enough so that the closure over the protruding flashcard does not result in an unsecure fastening. I'm well pleased with it and I think it is very secure while allowing accessibility to what we need most of the time. Lois Goodine -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
