For now I'd rather the 60 books I could buy instead for the same money.

When you set it down, you set it into the case, to recharge the smaller battery.

So, it's $90 for a battery, not just for a case.
It's also not that much more expensive than Amazon's official cases for other Kindles (which really are *way* overpriced).
