I want to just drop a comment on the port cases. I have two, and use one of them every day. The problem I have found is with the clasp. Mine has come off by itself a lot of times. The first time it happened the whole case slipped from my arm and hit the ground with a sickening solid thunk. The suspension system couldn't help because the case landed squarely on its side. Everything looked OK on my 760cd, but when I fired it up the CD made a sick sound and did not work. I called IBM and explained what happened and they said no problem, they would cover under warranty. I thought that was terrific. I do have the insurance and they also said they would pay, but I just let IBM handle it. The basic design flaw with the clasp is that you push the jointed release *in* to release! My fix has been to put a plastic twist tie (the kind you would use to organize network cable) around the clasp and the ring. I have found it dangling by the twist tie a few times since then. I really do love the case in terms of room and functionality, but felt compelled to share this experience with the list. Mike Crumrine crumrine@usa.net
