Wrap it in something soft, so it doesn't scratch the back of the Kobo.
Thanks Harry. It is worth considering of course - only I wonder about one thing. Kobo sleepcover is molded to fit exactly to the back of ereader so even a thin piece of metal may cause it to be uneven in the case. Perhaps. Gecko cover is designed in a different way.
