I am not sure they changed the design of the latch. But I am not taking any chances, I never lift the back cover at all. I also am a bit uneasy about clipping my booklight on the back cover as it lifts the back cover up some. But maybe I am being overly cautious.

I do like the Pathway tasklight it lights up the whole DX better than any booklight I have tried.

I really am loving reading the DX every night and the clicking of the buttons have quieted up from the first day. I thought that would drive me nuts, but it is quieter now. Also the flashing of page turn does not bother me like the flashing of the K3 I had. I think ever since they upgrade to 3.3 it flashed pages faster and it hurt my eyes more. Just my theory.

I am happy with the DX
