Wow! Your picture does look like FlipClip isn't made for Prism. Have you contacted Tactillis?

I can't say I see the difference with MarkEagle's picture. As far as I can tell, your Prism picture looks exactly like my Prism with the clip attached. It doesn't seem too tight. I just don't like the flip cover at all and am not using it -- therefore I haven't worn my Prism's paint down at all...

I'll try and explain what I see:
On the right hand side of Taki's picture, the bottom edge of the clip is near a corner of the Prisim. Now look at Mark's pic. I'm not sure, but it looks like the clip is on that corner. It's even more pronounced on the side by the stylus.
kalahari - do you have dislikes about it besides the poorly-fitting PIII clone lid?

Jeff, that's exactly what I wanted to say. Also the top part(flat part) looks almost bowed. Maybe I need to push it in to fit better but I'm afraid of wearing paint off. But I think Flip-Clip looks great on Mark's & Vinny's VDx. I'm going to try again when Flip-lid comes out.

Well, just moved my "flip clip" and PIII cover from VDx to VPrism. And, sho'nuff, the clip is slightly tighter fit on the Prism. Surprise! So, 'tis true. BUT. Very interesting benefit. On the Dlx, the clip would inch up with time and use. On the Prism: No inching up. Tight. The difference is so slight, doesn't really look like it's stressing the clip at all. Time will tell I guess.

I can see that after installing the flip clip only 4 times, the paint has started wearing on my Prism and it now has some "shiny" lines where the clip attached. I don't think that this flip clip is going to work for me -- even if Tactilis comes out with some decent covers. It'll be another item that "sits on the shelf and gathers dust..."
