Silicone "case" for Kindle

MoSo · 05-10-2008, 11:10 PM

Not available yet, but they are testing the waters, I think:
http://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Kindle-...0475231&sr=8-4

"Available" in clear, pink or black. It appears to cover the "forward" and "prev" bars with a little cut-out for the scroll wheel, the keyboard and the screen.

The better half saw the word "pink" and I was ordered to get one on order....Amazon sent a email with a probable ship date

Looks interesting! Let us know what it's like, when it arrives.

Hey I was looking at the new silicone case from Kroo and the black one seems to be blocking the scroll bar. There is another one that has an opening and it also comes with a stand for your Kindle. Expected ship date is 5-20. Here's the linky

I preordered the blue and will let you know how well it works.

I pre-ordered the pink one. I have some taste, somewhere, I assure you....

I want a green one. Guess I need to wait for the Kroo to be available.

Covering the large buttons isn't supposed to be a problem. My ipod cover covers the scroll wheel, but you just touch through it. That's the pleasure of the soft stretchy silicone.

My blue silicon cover has already been shipped! However, it's been sent via the US Post Office from the third party seller. That means that even though I have a tracking number it won't show any information until after it's delivered since most of the time the bar code isn't scanned until my excellent postal carrier scans the delivery confirmation label when she leaves it at my house.

I'd prefer green but blue is a close second. The pink reminded me too much of Pepto Bismol.

The pink assures me that the spouse will NEVER mistake mine for his.

I'm interested if this case alleviates the accidentally-pushing-the-buttons problem. Using the default Kindle case I don't have any trouble not pushing the buttons, but holding the Kindle without the case is awkward. But this one is such a close-fitting sleeve that I wonder if it will help with that at all.
