Apparently there was a big problem with the original Amazon leather cover. The hinges tended to break off when you accidentally opened the cover from the wrong side or folded the top back. Amazon forums are full of it. Later they stopped selling the original cover because they had to replace too many DXs and changed the design of the cover. Better check it out before you buy.

I read about it when I checked the user reviews for DX covers a few months ago and don't remember all the details.
