There are companies that make thin plastic keyboard overlays for computer
keyboards. They are used in the medical, auto mechanic, and outdoor
industries. In the Special Education field they are called moisture or
drool guards.
Maybe you can contact one of these companies and see what it would take to
make a protective key guard for the BookPort.

I agree. I was disappointed to find that my case, while great, doesn't
precisely do what i want, which is to be able to get my hands slightly dirty
(say, whilst washing dishes) and still press keys on the book port through a
protective screening, so as the keys won't get dirty. I'm still thinking
how this could be done but don't have any ideas at present.
