My new 650 feels naked without a case and I've been hearing some horror stories about cracked/scratched screens, something I never worried about with my 500 (built-in case and all that).

However, I really dislike the bulky and hard cases and the ones that use straps or velcro to secure the reader. I want a flimsy faux-leather case that attaches to holes in the reader's body, just like the 500 had! Why couldn't Sony have just provided a case in the box? The old 500 case that came with the reader couldn't have cost more than $10...

Can anyone point me to a case that uses the holes in the 650 to attach? Flimsy faux-leather is preferred, but I guess the method of attachment is slightly more important than the hardness of the case.
