Potential buyer: Question about D-click

Having already a H320, I consider buying a S10. However I have a question about the D-click system. How light does that go ? I read in a review that it works so light that wearing the S10 in a pocket is not an option, because you get randomly skipping of files then.
Is that true ? I ask, because I would like to use the S10 when bicycling and wearing the S10 around the neck is not an option for me.

And btw, is charging only possible with USB ? Is there no AC charger included ?

You can 'lock' the controls. I don't bother and I wear mine on a lanyard and if it's under my jacket I sometimes get a track skip if I brush against it. I suspect, in a pocket, it might be quite prone to it. You might get away with it in one of those pouches on the back of cycling tops though.
usb is the only charging option, but there are plenty of ac power supplies that plug in to the mains and have a usb connector on them. So you don't actually need a pc.

I'd probably say for cycling use (why are you listening while cycling?) the S10 will be impractical unless you can velcro it somewhere. The concerns you have are justified - I also wear mine on a lanyard and if I put it under my jacket, I'm always pausing, skipping tracks, etc. It probably would not work in a pocket if you want to take it out and adjust it every now and again, to keep unlocking it.

Thanks for the replies.
Meanwhile I bought a Sandisk Sansa Clip which is perfect for my purpose. Can be clipped anywhere on your shirt etc. and has excellent sound quality.
