I bought the PRS-700 because I like to read and travel a lot. However, I was uncomfortable about putting it into my briefcase without some kind of protection, so I bought the eCaddy case at http://www.ecaddycase.com/. It has protected the reader but the tin is thin and fairly flimsy (dents easily). You have to take the reader out of the tin to use it (which is good if you like to fold the cover back and hold it in one hand). Overall, I think it offers good protection but is over-priced.

Not satisfied, I later found the Electronic Book Armor case, same site. I bought it before my wife could stop me. I have to say this is an awesome cover! The reader, with cover, slides into the shell which is far sturdy than the eCaddy. It provides much better protection; I don't have to remove the reader from the case; and, it really looks good. Again, this is an awesome cover! I highly recommend it (wish I had seen it before I bought the eCaddy case.
