Meson1, a few questions: How thickly padded is the front flap? It looks really thick, perhaps because of the quilted finish? Is it distracting, or getting in the way?

How strong is the clip holding it closed? Is it plastic?

And --- I'm not sure what I think about the leather flaps covering up the sides of the reader. Are they one with the clips that keep it in place? Are they plastic?

Edit: AND: The hinge/strip of leather connecting the front and back piece, is it sturdy enough to read it like a book, with one hand on each piece, i.e. holding front flap with right hand and back/the ereader itself with right hand? It is my preferred reading position,
