well the stock covers for the sonys offer no protection really at all, no more then a sleeve would.
a good hard leather cover is my personal choice, and I wish there would always be an option for this. but many readers don't have it.
its kinda silly, but it is a preference issue.
the best stock cover I have witnessed in terms of protection was the kindle one. besides the flaws that there were when it was opened. (which were easily fixed with a thumbnail or/and a strip of velcro)
