I've managed to make a tentative deal with the maker of the Leonardo Leather address book that I've converted to a custom Kindle 2 case.

See this thread for more details:

For this deal to work, I have to buy a minimum of 20 the address books, which currently retail for a minimum of about $125 and up to $155. Based on the prices I've been quoted I would be able to sell the Leonardo Leather Kindle 2 case for about $220 - $240 each. This price would include customization with marbleized paper lining and the hinge system used in the Amazon Kindle cover. The cases would be completely hand made.

I'm posting this message to gauge the level of interest. Please post here if you would definitely want to buy the Leonardo case at this price. If there's enough interest, I'll develop plans for making a first group of 20.
