Since I'm still a n00b could you tell me if it really is an issue?

weight can definitely be an issue. I normally read my Kindle naked at home, but leave it in the cover if I am out and about reading

The Oberons are beautiful, but I'm wondering if the stiffness of the leather (which is awesome for making it sturdy) would allow me to read with the cover folded back?
PS: this is the one I'm lusting for  |
the Oberons do not fold back like the medge. there is a way to prop it at a table and read, handy at a restaurant. I had a medge and it was kind of cool to fold it back and slide your hand in, this won't work like that

I ordered the Medici casing in chocolate, hopefully it'll arrive soon, but Dutch customs and mail aren't very fast when it comes to international mail. |
it is a little different
P.S. maia is a girl and what she didn't tell you is that she broke it when hitting herself on the head with her kindle
