I told her... well, after using it for a day or two you will find a comfortable way to hold it that is different than how you hold a book. She insisted she had to have her thumb in the "crook" of perhaps a cover like she did with a book. I told her... we'll you hold a book like that because you have to hold the pages open.

Long story short... the K3 I ordered for her birthday finally came... she sends me an email... Wow... this is really cool, but I ordered a cover so I can hold it like a book. She used the thing for 5 minutes... ug. Anyway... I'm sure she will enjoy the cover with built in light she got.

But, she is funny. Asked me how you turn it off. I told her, you DON'T turn it off. She was shocked... BTW: It was her 70th birthday.

I agree with her about the cover! That's the main reason I got one for my kindle.

My DroidX fits just right in the palm of my hand with index and little fingers on each side...no cover needed.
