I've been meaning to chip in to this site w/ my own cover opinions. I've got the black leather cover, because I thought the stock tan was ugly. I like it; it's got a nice leather feel, and looks good. However, it does not fit as snugly as the stock cover, so the Reader is kind of "swimming" inside the cover. I don't have an easy way to attach a photo, but the problem is the "binding" edge, where the gray plastic Reader-holder is, seems to be about 50% wider than on the stock cover. Maybe that's to leave room for stuff in the back pocket? Anyway, I'm very glad I got it.
BTW, though, if you order from sonystyle.com, do NOT choose the cheapest shipping. It's USPS, and it took about twice as long to arrive as they claimed it would. The sonystyle.com web site said it was at the Post Office, and the Post Office said it wasn't. It did eventually arrive. I put in an email to Sony's "support", though, which never did arrive. My help ticket was immediately marked "solved", and I got an automated email telling me how to check the status on the web site. Thanks, but I knew that! I wrote back to them asking for more help, and never got a reply at all! Weak. Really weak. I love the Reader; Sony, not so much.
