So how do they manage the trick of having it dockable without removing the case? Is is the case super-thin or something?

Hm. Just got my Agent 18, but I’m liking the magenta Sena. Might have to treat myself(again).

If only the corners had protection…

I own one of these for my 4G. The corners do not have protection (at least on the bottom) because this would make the case too wide to dock. I am happy with it, not too thin, but still dockable. As for my 5G… I splurged and ordered a Vaja rather than giving Sena a go again.

Does anyone know if the belt clip is removable?

Does the fact that it has a magnetic enclosure, and that the ipod contains a hard drive bother anyone?
