It may be possible to unlock accidentally, but it's extremely unlikely. I've
had my BP for two years now and have never locked or unlocked it accidentally.
Has this ever happened to you, or anyone else who cares to answer? A power
switch would, however, come in handy for saving that tiny bit of battery power
that gets used when the keys are pressed when the unit is locked. The problem
with this would be, of course, the time and expense it would take to give the
BP a hardware upgrade that would include a power switch. No one wants to be
without their BookPort for any length of time.

I am aware of that but if its in your pocket it is still possible to unlock and
I feel a swich on the side would be more appropriate.
