I have the Kobo $30 USD cover that I ordered from Kobo along with the reader itself. The triangular tab on the RHS can either be held with the right hand or can be folded under first with the full LHS cover placed over that. Then the device and be held with either hand. Does anyone here know if the other covers are better than the Kobo cover in terms of ease use? I find myself going back and forth between using the cover open and holding with my right hand (triangular tab) or my left hand (full cover open) and folded over holding with either hand. Too many choices...

I am looking with interest at reviews here and on Amazon for these 2 covers:

I also wish the Kobo HD Glo device could remember the page I was on when I fall asleep. My thumb rests on the display and sends me many pages ahead.

That is one advantage the Kindle PW has. The bezel sides are pressure sensitive so you can press the sides to change pages. That is harder to do when falling asleep.
