Comparing the weight of an ereader without a cover to an ereader in a cover? As I said, apples and oranges.
So comparing a reader to a car, because they both offer protection (never mind one is for bodily injury/death, the other for an electronic device) is apples to apples.



Comparing one ereader weight to another ereader with cover weight is apples to oranges.



Or comparing an ereader weight 8" to an iPad Pro (what size screen) is apples to apples.



Just like comparing an ereader weight to the weight of paper books is apples to apples, but an ereader weight to an ereader weight is apples to oranges.

I have no problems with you making your own choices and expressing your opinion. So grant others that same freedom to post their opinons. As mentioned above, I also feel entirely free to have my opinion about your choices and to express that opinion.[quote]
Sure, feel free to state your opinion, but at least try and be a little consistent in your posts.

Don't forget, chacun à son goût.

Myself, I don't need a cover, but chacun à son goût. There are people who like to throw their money away. Id don't care for the asthetics of a cover, but chacun à son goût. There are many people who have no taste. I don't see a problem pushing a button to sleep/wake a device, but chacun à son goût. There are many lazy people with noodles for fingers.
