yeah stylistically, the dodocase is second to none, I am so unbelievably happy I stumbled on to this company. I began following them on twitter and facebook and they just come off as such a great small group of people that are dedicated to the end product. It's a local company in San Francisco that specializes in book binding and they've brought that into their cases. It makes my end user experience that much better to know it's a smallish local operation as opposed to a huge corporate, mass production sort of thing. The case is pretty much made from scratch by hand from morrocan leather and bamboo. They been burning the midnight oil past few weekends just to keep up with orders for the holidays. It sounds like the kindle case has become a hit for them which bodes well for all of us kindle users.
Now functionally, there are better cases out there but for me, the style of the case was so overwhelmingly positive that I could easily look past some of its functional short comings. That said, it's no slouch physically either but i'd be lying if I didn't admit that it wasn't the most functional out there. I've since gone on to add a monagrammed ipad2 case that's lights out and they make these things called bookbacks for ipad2 and iphone 4that i added both of. those are morroccan leather stickers that stick to the back of those devices that give the same leather look and feel of the dodcase.
In a unexpected turn, because of the curvature of the bamboo case they added around the speaker slots, it actually makes it louder too. Kinda like a sound chamber of sorts.
