I know, I know. Again with this? Im not sure how to post photos so I just linked to it. I just got it in the mail and where Im not 100% satisfied I do like it alot. What are my problems with it?

It has straps for all four sides but for some reason they arent very secure. They hold the Kindle with no problem but if you intend to plug it in to charge or even turn it on or off it slides right out of the straps. And the worst part is its a real pain to get the Kindle back under them. This can be both a Pro and Con depending on who you ask. For me its very annoying.

As the reviews say there are slots for a pen, credit cards and even an ID if need be. I ask you, who would store their credit cards and ID with their Kindle? I know I wouldnt.

I know its far fetched but I was hoping that since its supposedly so heavy it would have space to put the charger and cord in. No, it does not. It doesnt seem so heavy either but I have yet to really sit down and read a book on it. Ill have to post a better review once I attempt that.

Maybe I got the wrong case but the reviews state that it is firm. Not really. I wouldnt go stacking a bunch of things on top of it. It isnt firm at all honestly.

Now for the Pros? Well Im happy to finally have my Kindle in a case but I dont think that counts. It has two zippers and zips shut. I flipped it over and shook it, it holds the Kindle securely.

Overall I dont think it was that bad for what I paid and the shipping was really quick. It shipped out in the middle of the week and I got it just about a day or two later. That was a pleasant surprise. The thing is will I keep this and just grab a skin or will I save up for an Oberon? Tough decision. This isnt that bad after all and didnt cost a ton of money so for the time being I think Ill settle with this and try to find some sort of skin.
