clear your browser cache and try again. I was able to view all the K3 covers (except for the two new designs). The site is intermittently slow, but it works now.

I didn't clear the cache, but I did get in... ordered! Can't wait, now I have no Kindle 3 and no case

I've been wanting an Oberon cover for over a year for my other ereader, but hesitated because of the pricing.
Now, what the hell: I've got my K3 and love it, so I am severely tempted to buy an Oberon (Dragonfly Pond blue). But I hesitate because the 'back'button and 'shift' are partially covered with a strap.
On the site it says that the buttons can be pushed through the straps and are perfectly reachable, but I like my K3 completely free as it is with the (less attractive) Amazon-cover.
I'm torn because the Oberon covers are so beautiful. What will I do?

Same here. The lighted cover is a little too heavy to be used with one hand. I would prefer a combination of hinges and straps on the right, or even velcro. Not sure if I should take the cover back. Also, the Kindle seems like it could flop out and bend the hinges if held while reading laying down and being careless.

They took down the Kindle 1 page. (pouts)

OK, so I wasn't about to buy another K1 cover but it makes me feel sad to see the K1 disappear.

Ordered a red Oberoncover " Wild Roses". To compensate for the totally not needed expenditure,(I have a perfectly good Amazoncover) I have it shipped overseas for only 7$; it takes 25 days.

Ouch. But it will be well worth the wait.

I say go for it if you can get one. I finally scored a (used) Oberon Roof of Heaven cover for my K2 yesterday. If I had known how much I would love it I would've bought one a lot sooner. It makes me happy to just look at it.

And by the way, it doesn't feel significantly bulkier to carry in my purse than the M-Edge Go cover did, and I like the "balance" of it better. (Thanks, kindlekitten, for reassuring me on that point.)

Okay, I've decided to take back the lighted cover and buy an oberon. Not sure if I should buy the Singing Wolf in blue, Roof of Heaven in blue, or the Forest in green. Can someone help me? I think I'm leaning towards the wolf.

What about the black Wild Roses? It gives the Kindle a kind of gothic look. I also like the blue Roof of Heaven.

I agree. The Wild Rose Kindle 3 Cover looks good in black! Very Gothic!

The Singing Wolf also looks good in chocolate!

My K2 is in a blue Roof of Heaven. My K3 is in a saddle colored da Vinci Nook cover that I retro-fitted with a leather sewing tool to fit the Kindle. (I sold the Nook. A friend said she'll pay me Friday night, then I'll remove it from my list of devices.)

I think I'm going to go for the chocolate singing wolf, or maybe in blue. I'm not a woman, so the black roses are too feminine...

Then I would go for the chocolate Singing Wolf, so you can personalize your Kindle, as I did with the red Wild Roses; abundance and luxury--luxury for me; to be able to read a book whenever and where ever I want.
