The cover covers the "removal" buttons, so you can't remove the card without great difficulty (getting that cover off is a *bear*--I've found the only way to do it easily is to open the keyboard, remove the hard drive, and push the little hook back). From what I understand, many of these cards require, when you suspend the machine, to be removed and plugged back in again to "revive"--is this true? If so, those removal buttons must be accessable. I would have much preferred some sort of sliding cover (much like the slider on the back for the docking station connector) which would have allowed easier access and maintained protection. I find the current covers *very* difficult to make use of.
