Ha ha. I just didn't want you to suffer from analysis paralysis because I think the Sony and Kindle are both great options.
I have an Armor style case for my PRS-900. I really only use it when I am traveling on an airplane and want to protect the ereader from getting bumped around in a travel bag. It's too bulky for me for everyday use. I prefer the book-style covers. You can hold the ereader like a paperbook or fold it back. It helps keeps dust off the screen when you store it. It protects the ereader just fine if I put it in my handbag. I have the Sony-brand PRS-600 cover which fits my PRS-505, and it serves its purpose fine.
Another tip is I use a Nintendo DS stylus with my touchscreen. I was worried that I would lose the fancy stylus that comes with the ereader (or that my cat would lose it for me since she likes to play with pens). I found a cheap 3-pack of the Nintendo ones at the store so no worries if I lose one. That might be something to think about if your kids are also going to use the ereader.
