My el cheapo China one did. But it wasn't a slimfit cover, it was one of those that has the bezel covered and it was a bit too large/loose, too. I don't remember if I wrote about it in a post or not.

Well, given the autosleep doesn't work properly, they should! I have two third party covers for my original Aura and both work just fine. Having a sleepcover putting the device to autosleep has been industry standard for a couple of years now and I don't think they can uphold their bold claim "the best ereader of all time" at all. So why not do something really revolutionary and make the damn thing work allright? You might have heard this before: It's not the size that counts...
