I really like the gecko cases ... I'd get one, if it weren't that shipping will take 3-4 weeks and the tax and shipping to north america costs half again what the reader does. i guess when i'm back in england this summer, if i still haven't found one, i could try getting one then. but i'd prefer to have one this month.  |
I misssed this before for some reason. I'm not sure you're going to have any luck finding a cover without magnets. The Gecko cover also has magnets for the sleep function. That's the same one I have that I don't use, I found that flap always in the way. Reading I'd have to fold it back so it was tucked between the covers and I thought the stress of folding it that far back would eventually wear it out prematurely. And closing the cover I'd always have to be careful or the flap would touch the screen to trigger a few page flips without me realizing it.
