Well, it is possible to save eight dollars on it, which isn't bad
(via the Amazon Warehouse). It doesn't make it cheap, but, it is less expensive.
Also, I find the weight more comfortable. I'm not sure why, other than I ended up very used to my Kindle 2. When I switched to the Kindle 3 it kept feeling "too" light. The case makes it heavier than the K2 but still it feels very comfortable in my hands.
I do have large hands with thick wrists, so maybe it helps the dainty Kindle 3 not feel overwhelmed by my "mitts". Whatever it is, the heft feels more comfortable and more secure, less likely to break.
But, as always, other peoples mileage and comfort will vary.
