PS: I still love my 505 and 700
Hmmm, I hope your cover isn't the Amazon's official Kindle2 cover; just a word of caution, I heard it caused plenty of problems. When I bought my DX, I didn't bother with their covers because upon learning that the cover utilizes two metallic hooks to attach itself into the sides of the Kindle just didn't give me a sense of security for a couple of reasons. Firstly, having only 2 contact points seems to be pushing the limits of the pressure on the device's plastic encasement and that proves to be fatal as experienced by quite a number of users; see the $5m class suit against amazon. Secondly, if you were to drop it, the edges aren't adequately protected and many a times, such drops always hits the edges...I would have suggested a Noreve though...
