Thanks Julia. Let us know how they respond. I was about to write them when I got my cover, but after reviewing the photos people had posted I realized that I got exactly the same cover as everyone else, and that it would probably do very little good. But I certainly think that $40 is too much to pay for a "leather" cover that is half vinyl. If I were to do it again I would spend the extra money for the leather m-edge.
