I'm sorry to hear the Cintre case didn't work out. If nothing else, it's
a PITA to have to waste time on it and RMA it. When I made my original
comments about the Cintre case, Geeks had one of the cases I saw that
seemed good, and I have no qualms about dealing with them. Sometimes
there are loss-leaders at the big-box stores (Circuit City more likely
than Best Buy, Office [fill-in-noun-here], etc.)
