Steve,
I agree with you for the best part of your suggestion. I do have a time
or two that I would like to have the belt clip option. I do have the
mobile cradle for it and a pouch on my fanny pack to put it in. If I am
just walking as I need to do since my back operation I like to use the
GPS to measure my distance. My wife and I might do some walking around
the neighborhood and I would like a better idea of just how far we have
traveled... If you are serious, I'll pay the postage at the very least:

Thanks
