thanks escape. you were very descriptive and helpful. makes sense and kinda what i was thinking--but here is where i check to make sure. now to find that--most covers aren't that or are too big...
ummmm.... ok, vish, the kindle advert hast someone doing just that... with the trouser's pocket, i mean.

i would never do that. i am a girl, though, and do use a purse--trying to be minimal.
umm the perfectionist thing is a curse in disguise--why do you think i'm afraid of bricking something or trying something out? makes me a horrible artist, programmer or "aufmotzer". need to know all the answers at the beginning.
look at how long this thread is still going with my continuing questions--it's like bringing a new baby home--gotta have everything ready.
you guys are the greatest! so patient with me.
