Actually the US store is a differnt shape, I've only just noticed that. I thought it was the same case.

It actually is the same on the US site--I have it, and got it from the US site. I think you linked to the wrong one on the US site--this is the link to the one I got http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I also got the Fintie case http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and I have to say, I think I like it better. The Fintie is definitely smaller, thinner, and lighter than the ACcase one. The magnets on the Fintie seem stronger, as well, which is nice because it stays closed better when it's in my purse, but the stronger magnets can be a pain in everyday use, as it's harder to open the Fintie case. The thinness of the Fintie might also be an issue for some--the front of the cover is so thin and the magnet so strong that I have to either use my fingernail to open it or kind of bend the front cover back slightly at the top and hook my finger beneath it.

The ACcase is definitely more padded, which obviously contributes to the thickness of it, and the inside of the front cover has kind of a spongy feel to it, rather than the suede-like feel of the Fintie. I've used both, trading off to try to see which one I like better, and for now I think the Fintie is winning.

This is also the first Kindle that I am able to comfortably use with no cover--I think it may be the shaped back that makes it feel more stable in my hands, but I'm not sure.
