I like the fact that it's a slim fit cover, that's still kept shut by magnets (AFAIK) *without* protruding metal parts or clasps. The only thing I possibly don't like is the way the cover folds to become a stand. I just have the idea that it'll make the cover really floppy.
I could just go ahead and order it. I'm on holiday next week, and if I don't like the cover, I'll just post it back on Monday or Tuesday. The store I'd be ordering has a *very* good return policy.
I'm a customer there that they'd probably both love and hate at the same time. I buy a lot there, but I also return items regularly; I think the ratio to keep:return is about 6:4 or maybe 7:3. Often, it's the cheaper items that don't live up to expectations.
About the Kobo software:
If they would just debug the full screen option, and introduce it as an official setting, their software would be good enough for me. It irks me that they keep insisting on wasting huge amounts of space, especially when displaying KEPUB. Even if they'd put the title and progression on the page, there is no need to make it take up three or four lines each.

I knew it. I shouldn't have posted that before ordering. If I decide to order now, it will probably turn out that you've got the only one in stock there.
