I realized that pulling it out by the notch that I cut for the power button might put too much torque on it and could possibly break the substrate in the screen. I added a piece of ribbon that lays under the Reader to allow ease of removal. I retained the first few pages so that it did still look more like a pbook. I also double-sided taped business card windows from a planner into the front cover to hold memory cards and the like. Since then, I found some self-adhesive pockets made for 3.5" diskettes on clearance at Office Depot for about $1 for a pack of 5. These also work well for card storage.

Nice ideas there. I think you might also run two strips of ribbon from the middle and out each end (bookmark style) ... although that might torque it a bit to.
However, if you stuck some flashing in the back (I'm just so big on flashing these days), you could paint it white to match the pages, and then a single ribbon would probably be enough to break the hold with out causing much torque.
Gah .... I hate getting all these new ideas just when I don't have TIME to try any of them.
Dammit.
