Thanks for your reply, now I also know how to use it -- never noticed
those small indentations on the charger that holds it in place! However,
I do not intend to use it attached to my belt, and since it's not
designed to clamp around a woman's purse strap, what do the ladies do
with it other than pack it around in their purse.

Until a small container or bag is discovered I'm using a Zip Lock bag and
it mainly lives in a a box between the car seats, or in my pocket along
with the cell phone. Have just ordered a bag for the cell phone, but
haven't found anything suitable for a BT headset. Who is going to be the
first to bring that to market?
