Hi 

I often fold the cover back when I am using my stream as I
hang it round my neck but what I do like to use for
headphones is a right angle jack adapter, it stops the 3.5
ml jack plug sticking out so much, again being in a
wheelchair this is more comfortable and keeps the headphone
jack flush with the case. 

Regards

Adrien

Tom, I have no problems plugging headphones into the Stream
with 
the Exec Products case closed.  Can't understand why it
should be 
a problem.  Jim WA6EKS

Jim:

See my last post.


Maybe I should have said that the headphone jack is on the
top 
right, but I
still can't seem to be able to use it effectively when
closing 
the case I
have.

Tom I am confused, the mic plug is on the righthand side of
the 
new stream I
have and the headphone jack is on the top right.
You can close the Exec products case and still plug in both
a mic 
and
headphones.  Jim WA6EKS

Stream

All:

I have the Executive Products leather case for my
new-generation 
V R Stream,
and I agree totally with Dave about the ease of protecting
the 
keys with the
top cover of the case.

My only problem with the new-gen Stream when using it with
the 
Executive
Products case is that the head-phone jack is now on the
front 
right-hand
corner of the unit, which does not allow you to close the
case 
completely
when headphones are plugged in.

Why they changed this from the first-generation Stream is
beyond 
me.

Hi Buddy!

Executive Products Inc.  sells a leather case for the
Stream2.
Granted, it
isn't silicon, but it offers better protection if used 
conscientiously
compared to the flimsy thing that comes in the box.  It
includes 
a zipper
pocket on the front flap that can cover all the keys when
you 
don't want
them exposed.

It also includes a covered belt clip.  You can get it
cheaper 
directly from
them, or if it is more convenient, I can organise it for
you.
Just contact
me off list if you prefer that service.

Hope this is of some help.

73,
Dave
