Hello Scott,

That clear "Strong Versatile Hard Cover" in the ad from Texas is
similar to the one I bought from Club-100 back in the day.  It still
protects my M-100 to this day.  Mine is black and has the Club-100
sticker on it.

It is attached to the M-100 with four small velcro patches (included),
one on each corner of the M-100 case.

Mine also has the "ditch" that runs side-to-side between keyboard and
display, so one option also would be a large elastic band that wraps
around the entire device with the front cover on.  I do not know how
well that would hold or what would happen if the rubber band let go.

This cover was reputed to be able to protect the M-100 even if put in a
large paper envelope and sent through the USPS postal system -- I did
not test that but I can believe it would work -- with velcro.  I don't
think I would trust a rubber band to hold it in place.

I wonder what it would take to manufacture more?  Or if there is a
market for them?

Regards,    Bert
