Sony Leather Case Received

gixxermenace · 09-10-2008, 03:44 PM

Just got my new leather case from Sony Style (UK) and it has not got pockets in but the thing that bothers me the most is when i have it held when reading the book seems to drop slightly down on the right side from what i can guess is the weight, does this happen on everyones case ?

The one in Sony Style UK site looks like the same as the regular cover the reader comes with, i shouldn't drop like that, but it might be a different cover.

gixxer, mine does that although only a little. I guess it's due to the soft leather that the case is made of sagging a bit when the Reader's weight pulls on the hinge attachment thingie.

yeah, thats what i think it is just the soft leather, i am slowly getting over it

i must admit though there seems be a distinct lack of good cases for the sony, guess in few months the other companies might get to grips with it and make some cool cases

Ah, I like the leather Reader case but IMHO the black leather is just a bit too boring. To combat this, I am speaking to a leatherworker who makes leather book covers and diaries/journals and such about her making me a nice heavy carved leather cover for my Reader. It should look nice and old-school and have a leather lace closure, etc.

A company called M-Edge makes a few different covers for portable reading devices.

Personally, I like the executive jacket.

When you get more information -- and PICTURES - please post them. There are a number of people here who would be very interested in this project.

Thanks,
