Until I've checked this out:

That's how I ever pictured myself using my Kindle!

Once again, thanks for all the opinions.

That's really cool. There is a thread around here somewhere with links and pictures of homemade covers. One person had the great idea of integrating the packaging the Kindle came in to hold it in place within the cover. It comes tightly wedged in a fitted piece of plastic inside the box. If I can find the thread, I will edit this post to add a link to it.

EDIT: I found there are about a dozen threads on the subject. Too many to put links to them all here. I put "kindle homemade cover" in the search to bring them all up. Now, off to check them out myself.
