I bought the black cover. Basically, Amazon took a leaf from Sony's book (funny how these expressions survive into new technology - we still "dial" phones...) - the T1 case - and improved it, in terms of looks & functionality. It seems to weigh a little more, though.

I got black because a color border on the KP would irritate me. I hated the cases which held the Kindle in place with straps, and disliked the ones where the device slipped into a case leaving case edgings that were not exactly in alignment. A little OCD of me, I guess. The effect of the standard Amazon case, and the Sony case, is to give the EBR a beveled edge.

The on/off feature of the cover is very nice.
