I love covers, all of my devices have multiple covers. I switch them out depending on which purse or where I am going.

My $99 simple touch fits in some older kindle/nook covers with the addition of a foam piece in the bottom. I carry it in the old pink and orange Kate Spade I picked up on clearance for $35, or one I got from Icon Shoes, or the gold Amelia pouch for the Nook Color (also bought on clearance).

I am lusting after the Kate Spade polka dots or charm covers, but waiting on a sale.

Cover prices just haven't fallen like ereader prices. My first reader was pushing $500.
