I did that for awhile, too. I found that after the tab bent a bit over time it held in the cover pretty well without it. Enough for me to feel ok if I was sitting at home reading, but I didn't feel quite secure with it reading out and about. I have the M-Edge cover now which I quite like in many respects. The Kindle is far more secure in it. The material is soft. I like the little pockets. I do wish the board they used was a bit sturdier like the stock case, though. I feel that the stock case probably protects the unit better for transport and the M-Edge for use.
