Thanks Scott and also Lois,
You are correst. I have only put it in the case once and started from the
bottom and the card made it difficult. After taking the card out it slipped
in easier but out the front opening. That should have been a clue but I
didn' give it a thought. Thanks for the tip.
Richard

Hi Richard,
if you unsnap the two snaps from the bottom of the case, slip your Book
Port
down about an inch, then slide the top of the case off the BP and pull it
out from the front, you wouldn't need to remove the CF card when changing
batteries.
Glad to hear you like the EPI case.
Scott

Subject: [bookport] Bookport case
Hi folks,
I think we need a change of subject, so here goes.
I want to thank Caroline for mentioning this case a couple of weeks ago. I
have been looking for a case for my Bookport and I have tried a couple of
generic solutions, none of them satisfactory. I would have preferred a hard
case until I bought this one. I have provided the link to this item in
case anyone is interested.
There are a couple of reviews on the site but here are some additional
comments that I would like to add that were not mentioned:
1. It is black leather, extremely well designed and perfectly fitted.
2. The price is $53.26 including shipping. Pricy but worth it.
3. It include a 1 inch wide black nylon shoulder strap, a nyoon wrist strap
and a belt
clip.
4. The front flap wraps around the back when open and fastens with velcro,
This can't be
done when it is attached with the belt clip, but if the flap is left
closed with the
velcro unfastened, the buttons are still eadily accessible.
5. The front flap is semi-rigid and provides adequate protection. If you
carry additional
CF cards in their cases in the front zipper compartment then that
provides additional
protection. The interior of the case is thinly padded so it doesn't add
unnecessary
bulk.
6. It is necessary to remove the CF card while putting the BP into the case
or changing
batteries. There is a slot for changing cards.
7. I use the wrist strap as a backup to the belt clip although the belt
clip is leather
covered and hard to put on and take off and is unlikely to slip off a
belt.
All in all, I can't conceive of a better design. You can find it here:
