They no longer are selling the Glowlight (non Plus) aside to get rid of what they have in stock. When those devices were released initially the only 'case' for them was a clip cover which was really a sheet of pretty much plastic or rubber with a clip on the side to connect to the Glowlight.

Eventually they released some cases which worked with that model and were 'bookish' in that the Glowlight rested inside the case, if memory serves it was held in place by plastic fittings. Even when they did this, their selection was very limited.

Now that they have the GLP I don't expect they will bother with cases for the last generation of Glowlight. They have a fairly poor track record of supporting their own device once they stop actively producing them, look at the Nook Color/Tablet which suffered from a poorly designed cable for years, and now after the cable was finally redesigned, suffer from production and stocking issues. Similar issues plague the Nook HD. Neither of these would be a problem, except the three devices all use proprietary connections.

In terms of suggestions, ebay or etsy might have some slip covers. But you'll want to make sure of the dimensions. In terms of finding a case that will allow the Glowlight to clip in, I think you may have a hard time, outside of one that uses bands to hold it in place.
