Paperwhite cover - not a slim one

kazuma6666 · 12-19-2012, 06:10 AM

Hello,

I'm looking for a cover for the paperwhite. First, I don't want a cover that will stay on my reader. I had an opus before, and the cover was perfect because i could read without it, it was just protective. Here is the cover type I had :

I'm pretty sure the name isn't "cover", and that's actually what I'm searching for. The name of this type of cover so I can google it to find one for my paperwhite.

I find that the paperwhite is already a bit heavier than the opus, I don't want to add to that a cover. So I'd like what we call a "housse" in french I think. google translates that to slipcover but I don't think that's what I'm searching for.

Also, if you know of some cover of that type for the paperwhite I'm interested.

Thanks!

What you're looking for is called a "sleeve". Here's an example http://www.amazon.com/OCTOVO-PU-Slee...m_sbs_kstore_5

Hope this helps

The Paperwhite also will fit in the Mini Sleeve from Oberon which is embossed leather.

I'm wondering if there are also "cases" made out of hard plastic or something for transporting it together with other heavy items or in a full backpack. I'm a bit worried that sometimes a regular case wouldn't provide enough protection.

I use a sleeve from Wenger. Soft, zippered, and decent shock protection -- http://www.amazon.com/SwissGear-LEGA.../dp/B003SCQ6TQ

Thanks for the info, this is exactly what I'm looking for. Now to find it in Europe, I guess I'll check ebay.
