I'm very disappointed in this cover, after having spent $40 on it.

I'm the type that folds it back. I now find it has a dirty look along the inside spine area where fold occurs. Plus, when closed, it doesn't line up evenly along the edges like the cover that came with the Reader. This is driving me nuts, so I removed it and snapped the original cover back on. Can anyone suggest a way to clean the inside area of the leather cover. I really love the outisde look and feel of the red cover, but not the inside part of the cover.

I think we need some kind of cover that has a "fold" builit into the design, like the original cover that comes with the Reader. As I said, I can't stand the fact that edges are not lined up on my leather cover.

The cover from (M-Design, is it?) apparently has some kind of "Pocket" that houses the Reader. Then the front cover itself folds back. Maybe that will be the design I'm looking for. Does anyone have this yet?

I'm wondering if the expensive cover from D&B (?) solves this fold-back issue, as well as the dirt and grime issue.

Disgruntled in Cincinnati.
