The case added a bit of weight but it was still easily handhold-able. I really liked the book motif it imparted.

However, I ended up getting the DX and didn't want all of the additional weight on a device that was already heavier. I chose the Octovo sleeve ( http://amzn.com/B002KQ115A ) and have absolutely loved it. No regrets.
If you can, return the sleeve. It's a bit of a waste of money.

You should have a proper case. A sleeve will give the DX no protection at all while it's not in the sleeve where a case will give some protection all the time.

Why is it sleeves are thought to be good things when they are not good and just a waste of money?
