uh huh. They don't cover that annoying glossy black screen surround though.

Look, from reading some of your other posts I understand that you think it's your life's work to defend the Nook's honour but really, some of us that haven't drunk too much of the Kool aid think that certain aspects of its design really are distracting. And yes, several of them can be somewhat alleviated by buying additional bits and bobs, but not all.

Cost aside, I really don't see what advantage the Nook has over the iPad for the reading I do - the only reason I've avoided getting an iPad is the screen glare and reflections and the Nook case has them in spades.

Here's hoping the K3 designers had more sense.
