And a lot cheaper too... I mean, those covers by Josh are awesome, but also expensive. And you'd need to import them if you're not living in the US, as well. Remember, this is an international forum!

What do you look for in a case? Do you mind corner straps? Or is that a deal-killer? Why? What colors do you like?
As I said, above, they look awesome. But I really don't like those corner straps. Knowing myself, I'll always be afraid the reader will slip its cover.

But, I'd love a slipcase, which will fit over my normal cover, for when I want to stuff it in a bag (for example when traveling without time for reading).

I believe it is a very safe cover.
I must say, I was pleasantly surprised when I got my cover. Especially the lack of a clasp is awesome. It looks clean and isn't larger than it needs to be while still having a good screen protection.

Hmm, I never have that problem... But then, I always make sure my readers are sitting flat against the back of my bag, to minimize the possibility of twisting forces.
