Case compatibility
I bought the "Toughskin case" for my zune. This case is awesome and exactly the protection I wanted for the Zune. It fits it tightly and is not at all bulky. The problem--my zune must be taken out of the case (a lot of trouble and a big hassel) in order to use the zune home docking station or my zune car trasmitter. Now, who wants to do that everytime????? If, on the transmitter, they just made that metal plug a little longer-maybe an eighth
of an inch--then it would still fit into the zune while the zune is in the case. The home docking station should have had the wider base (I even tried taking out the insert) so that a zune in a case would fit it.
Does anybody have any suggestions on what else may work? I found nothing on the zune site to solve these issues or other accessories. I do not want to take the zune out of the case as it is perfect for the protection I wanted. Thanks for
any ideas or help or zune compatible accessory suggestions that might work.

Update--Since this post, I took my Toughskin case to an old fashioned shoe repair shop. The owner used a sander with very fine paper and sanded the bottom of the Toughskin case thinner--he then cut out a little more around the insert. I can now use the Toughskin case with the Zune car tuner! However, it still will not fit in the docking station--I did not want to modify the case any further, as it would defeat the purpose of which I bought it--to have that extra protection. I hope they start making docking stations with larger openings that will accomodate Zune's in a case.
