Request Button changes to prevent case cracking.

I just noticed that the plastic is cracked between each of the page control buttons on the eInk side of my entourage edge.
It seems there isn't enough structural strength in these areas.
If the buttons were not so tall the gap between them would be wider, there would be more plastic, and so the case would be stronger between the buttons.

The PE has smaller buttons and spaced 1/2" apart, so perhaps enTourage already has made the change going forward... (They also don't activate when you apply pressure from the back of the screen like they do on the EE.)
