Cables To Go hard case idea

The pics below show a Cables To Go case that contained Sandisk MP3 connectors. This will provide hard protection for the Sony PRS-505. It feels like this case has hard plastic in the front and back covers, offering great protection. I've seen these cases sold containing other types of connectors and cables, not just Sandisk's.

Pics show
1. Closed case
2. Opened case with 505 in left side - a tight fit, and also sits tight against the hard outer case, with no cushioning. Not preferred. (Plus you'd need to thin the foam on the right because the case won't close with the 505 there.)
3. Opened case with 505 laid on the right side's foam insert, showing it would fit here if the foam were cut down. Preferred location. Putting some foam in the left cover would offer maximum cushioning.
4. Case's foam, next to Sony A/C adapter, showing that the adaptor is as wide as the foam. I wanted to be able to carry both the reader and the charger, but the foam needs to be cut down, so I guess I can't. (This is why you're getting an "idea" rather than pictures of a working solution, because I'm hesitant to cut the foam, still deciding what to do about a charger, like maybe a PSP charger would be slimmer, or just be satisfied carrying a USB cable.)
