    You solved a problem that I've been trying to overcome for years. You pick up the device, and you take the stupid dock right with it. That, or a simple case renders the dock useless. I'm thrilled SOMEONE thought about how the dock would actually be used, and designed accordingly. So, I'm also thrilled that the project is getting so much backing success. Best of luck with the project, and here's to many more brilliant ideas!
