I entirely agree with you. Without the cover, the CyBook feels very "cheap and flimsy". It isn't, but it certainly feels as though it is. With the cover on, it's a different story - thankfully!

One other point to raise is to give some thought to how the device is attached to any case or cover. Having covers attached by straps, velcro, corner pockets of leather just looks sloppy. You've obviously put a lot of thought into the design and the way the unit looks, please don't mess it up with sloppy covers. Think of the covers as a way to present the device, not just as a means to protect. Again, Sony has done a brilliant job in this area compared to all the others. You don't want or need to copy them, but some of their decisions are head and shoulders above what their competitors are doing.

I think personally that the CyBook cover (the original tan one) is excellent. Makes the device look like a high-quality leather-bound book.
