Harry, yes, I know.
Apparently it's the cover
that's sold at M-Edge. I would have preferred the original brown cover because the chocolate brown colour makes for a nicer "old book" feel, whereas the black jacket is more the executive type. In addition, the leather strap that is used to close the black cover will probably get in your way when you're reading, whereas the brown cover is held closed by integrated magnets.
The thing that bugs me most about this is that Bookeen has once more not informed its customers about this change. We all know that they're probably a rather small company, so one does of course make allowances for that. However, they could have sent a form e-mail to everybody that unfortunately they have run out of the original covers, but have replacements at hand. Or they could have included a form letter with some sort of explanation in the actual package. If that had happened, all would have been fine. But to simply send a different product to your customer? That's what I find unacceptable. *sigh*
