* I've realised that I don't like covers with the cut-out design, i.e. material dividing the keypad and the screen. It gets slightly in the way of the 4-way and 'Menu' buttons.

* When I use a clip-on booklight, I find that the top strip of the cover casts a shadow on the top line or two of the page.

* The feel isn't particularly book-like.

* I'm shallow. A colleague got an Amazon cover and I've been seeing a lot of them on the train, and they're just far more lovely.

I'm looking at a cheap cover out of necessity, probably one of these: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/protect...-3-black-49301 If I had £30 to spend, I'd definitely be going for one of those beautiful M-Edge ones, or the Proporta aluminium.
check out the Gecko covers that were posted earlier. they were good looking and reasonable!
