The Sky dragon is coming in so small; it wants to be by itself, so here's another picture of the dragon!

Wow they are pretty!

I'm so glad to see the site is fixed! Those are absolutely gorgeous. I may have to re-think my decision for an M-Edge as the Hokusai Wave is calling to me.

I would pre-order this second, but I'm still waiting for the "Roof of Heaven" cover to be made available as a Kindle cover. As of right now it's only available as a Large Journal cover, but Oberon has stated that they will be making it available as a Kindle cover.

I have a "Tree of Life" cover for my K1, if you've never seen one in person, no photo could ever do it justice! It is beautiful, as are all the Oberon covers.

Here's a pic of the "Roof of Heaven" journal cover:

Here's a larger pic of my "Tree of Life" cover:

That photo doesn't show it, but the design wraps all the way around the cover.

My Kindle 1 had the Sky Dragon cover and since I sold it with the cover so I can get the Kindle 2, I can not get the Sky Dragon again (it would be to painful

). I plan to stick to red family though, I have pre-ordered the red Sun!

The Sun is also a wraparound cover!

Have you seen a pic of the entire image?

This is the Journal version, but the image is the same...

Thanks nelamvr6, I've seen it. What I really want to see is a picture of the back with the cover close. It does not seem to be separated 50/50 front/back, it looks like 75% of the Sun is in the front! I've been begging the people that has the Sun for the K1 to post a back picture.

According to the link, the "Roof of Heaven" will be available next week for pre-order on Kindle 2. I imagine it would be available to order for Kindle 1 as well.

So, does anyone know, are these going to support the new cover attachment slots on the K2... or are they just going to have the corner straps like the K1 versions?

Are these nice soft leather? Anyone have the K1 version?

If you go to www.kindleboards.com, there are lots of pictures of them.

I don't think they are "soft" leather....they couldn't be with all that embossing. They might be a little 'stiff'.

There are pics of the K2 versions on the inside already? Really? That was fast that someone would have it. This morning the site said they didn't even have K2 covers yet.

Yea, that's kind of what I thought. I would prefer a nice soft leather... sort of like the leather covered Moleskine.
