hi. i have had hints that a kindle 3 will be in my stocking this christmas, so i've been looking for something to protect it and make it booklike to read.
i'm okay with a slip in cover or other - what's important to me is that i can hold my kindle by the cover so i can read it like a paperback and that the cover is fairly protective and not leather. i found a couple in threads, but am wondering if you have any that you particularly recommend.
i found this one on ebay from one of the threads i read

but was concerned whether a "thinner and lighter design" meant not very protective. also checked out dodo cases - way cool, but not sure i need a $50 cover unless it's truly awesome.
