It's funny, I've had my BP for well over two years.  Until I recently got the 
case, I used the BookPort's belt clip all the time.  It's a little loose, but 
it's not going anywhere.  I wonder why it hasn't broken,  I've had other 
devices with stronger belt clips break.  Guess I shouldn't look that particular 
gift horse in the mouth, and now I don't have to worry about the clip, the case 
covers it.
