Hi 

Yes I am always creating notes I don't mean to, the record
button is difficult to feel.

Regards

Adrien

Subject: OT: New Stream Case

I Changed the subject line to be closer to the subject at
hand.

In regard to the new Stream case, I am also disappointed
with the new case. 
no cover flap to keep the keyboard protected while not in
use and no belt 
clip.  With the old Stream's case, I often kept the flap
closed and operated 
it through the cover, thus offering some protection from
accidently getting 
crud in to the keypad.

While Humanware is in a listening mode, this would be a good
time to kindly 
suggest they go back to the case design they had with the
first generation.

Speaking of design flaws with the new Stream, I often press
the volume down 
key in conjunction with the record button since they are
opposite each 
other.  On the older Stream, the record button was
positioned further down 
the right side thus avoiding this problem.  Is anyone else
having this 
problem, or am I the klutz?
