In a weak moment just now, I ordered this soft-looking sleeve of Wool Felt (made for the iPad mini) from Byrd & Belle, which I'm hoping will make a nice bedside sleeve for my Kobo Aura:

It's 25% off with free shipping in the US using code TAKE25 . (I was notified of this deal through SlickDeals.) I've never heard of or bought from this vendor, but the PayPal transaction went smoothly.
It's a little steep at the original price of $32, though it drops to $24 after the discount (free shipping & no tax... gotta love that). Still not cheap, but I like the idea of a soft, easy slip in-and-out sleeve. Judging by the dimensions, I'm thinking the horizontal (width) dimension will be about right (comparing ipad mini to Aura width), and the vertical dimension will be a little long for the Aura, but since I've ordered the kind without a closure strap, I like having the option of a little more depth; and I'm sure I could do something with the overage if need be.
There's another version with a leather strap for closure ($46...eek!), but I don't like the idea of having a snap to press into place directly over the Aura's screen (or back, even. or have to keep track whether the screen or the back is under the snap, where presumably some pressure must be applied to snap it closed.)
Will report back with pictures, hopefully, once received!
