Hi ScottL: My feeling is that if you indeed paid only $59.98 for your Kaces Porter KK9KB, you got a very good deal, even with that annoying plastic button. I had compared the older Kaces Porter III (with protruding button) with the new one, which comes with a sewn on attachment piece, and except for that, BOTH cases are identical in weight, dimensions, and construction.

The belt clip is intended for attaching an X keyboard stand to the case, but imho a totally useless feature. The older model Kaces Porter (with retractable sliding handle) case had a steel foot rest mounted at one end of the case to secure the keyboard stand, but the new cases DON'T include this. Without this, transporting an X stand to the belt alone is awkward and impractical.

ScottL: I don't think it's worth bothering returning the case, especially with the great deal you got on it. I instead recommend you simply & easily remove (cut) the plastic button section off. Doing this will not compromise the case in any way. You can instead gloat over the good Ebay deal you scored as I paid $99. - Scott
