For owners of the Sony T1 and other PRS Models, there is a new line of hardshell cases from BookArmor. I have a similar product (previous version Delta 6) that is incredibly strong, moderate in weight, and easy to hold/use for my PRS-950. It is a great case but is premium priced.
The seller is based in Colorado but I believe ships to the USA and Europe.
