I just recently purchased from ebay a case for the fire, I've attached some pictures and a link:
The exterior is leather and has an elastic strap to keep it closed for $10.95. http://www.ebay.com/itm/360-degree-R...#ht_2705wt_856 Last edited by beckywc; 11-06-2011 at 07:14 PM. |

I need a case for it but not sure yet what to get. I need a screen protector has anyone made any yet? I plan to order my Fire this weekend.

I dunno blossom. I think, between the Fire's Gorilla Glass, a decent case, and the likelihood that you'll mostly be using it for reading (probably at home)...I wouldn't think you'd need a screen protector. I don't think I'm going to get one, for the same reasons.

I'm not getting a screen protector either. They get really nasty pretty easily (my dad has gone through two on his iPhone 4 already and is about to get a third). They're great for the Kindles (and other devices) not touch based, but not for devices where you're going to put your hands everywhere. He uses the OtterBox.

I used a screen protector on my NookColor to help with the high gloss screen. It worked very well. I tried one on my iPad but it was bad. You never know. They are pricey though. Last edited by jswinden; 11-10-2011 at 08:36 PM. |

Oh, for a phone, absolutely, because it's constantly changing environments, ie into and out of pockets, onto surfaces, etc. But for my fire? I don't see the need. It'll have the cover to protect it when I set it down -- which I will never do without closing it.
Just me, though. |

I just ordered this Kindle Fire sleeve from a store called Rogue Theory on Etsy.com. She made the sleeve for my Kindle 3 and it's been fantastic -- lightweight while still providing protection, and only $15. I took the Kindle in the sleeve all over China this summer, and it held up beautifully. I happily ordered a case from her for the Fire.
