I think the cover works pretty good in a protection point of view, except for the parts where you have the cover open (I mean the rim of the device could get damaged by keys in a purse or so). For this, I think a sleeve is better suited. There are sleeves available in pretty sturdy material and thickness, so I think it's more a question of usability. I rather like folding the cover open and to the back than getting the reader out of a sleeve. And once it's out of the sleeve, you sometimes have to set aside the reader and putting it back into the sleeve for just a second doesn't seem practiacl to me.
So I go with the cover and never went backt to the supplied sleeve that came with the reader.
