Those that hate them:
- Want a 'plush' case with a more luxurious feel. The case is a hard case with a thin skin of leather and they want a case that has a thicker, softer cover.
- The light shines in your eyes. The light points across the page, not down at the page. As a result it can shine in your eyes.
- It (and any case) on the KT covers the speakers and makes it difficult to hear text-to-speech.
I don't hate mine, have one for the K4 NT, but what I greatly dislike about it and why I'm not using it right now is that the leather is too slick/slippery. I have to really be careful when picking my kindle up that it won't slip through my fingers. That, and that it doesn't have anything to keep it closed. But otherwise it was a nice little cover with a decent light. Now if they release them in a bit nicer colors (have the olive and it's yuck) and with some texture to the leather which would make it less slick I think I would definitely buy it for my Touch.

Still wonder why they never released the bright yellow and orange that could be seen on pics of the Live event that introduced the new kindles.
