That is a lousy design. I too would find those corner straps unacceptable, especially for a "premium" product. If only Vaja made Reader cases..... *sigh* Those cases really do fit like a glove! I do not like the Oberon fit, even in pics from 'satisfied' customers online. (The cover design is nice, though.)

Why doesn't anyone make a "deluxe" cover based on the OEM cover design? I like the original cover for being thin and held on by little magnets. I don't like the stretchy-cord-and-button fastener (nor the leather strap and slot fastener on the M-Edge covers). And I personally loathe the slapped-on non-contoured corner straps.
