Lovely .... I have two K3's, both with non-lighted covers. The second one is a Christmas present for the wife and won't be opened until after the 25th. In the meantime, I'm testing mine to see if turning the K3 completely off (not just sleep mode) will stop the freeze. When mine froze yesterday, it was completely locked up. I tried holding the switch to shut it off but it stayed frozen on the sleep mode screen-saver. Nothing I did would wake it up. Brought it home (I was travelling), plugged it into 110V and let it charge to full power, then it responded and I've used it for a couple of hours this evening. Next, it goes back into the cover turned OFF to see what happens. I'll report back. In checking the latches, nothing seems worn. Mine has only been in the cover maybe 6 times, so nothing is worn off or worn out and there is no visible sign of wear, paint flaking, etc. Time will tell, but $39 for a cover that doesn't work is a bit expensive, IMHO. I seem to have problems only when the cover is used for a period of time. When I installed it right after opening it to see how it fit, I had no problem, so it has something to do with time and/or pressure on the keypad.
