Ford produce Sony Reader cases

I posted a comment on this in another thread which was thought ‘a bit off the wall’ so I thought it deserved it’s own thread.

Unutterably silly or serious - you choose

The case itself is constructed from black canvas type material internally with a finer weave externally. Padded between the layers of material with a high density foam layer about 1/4" thick, and card. External dimensions are not a lot more than the reader. though some twice as thick.
It has pockets / sleeves internally behind which you can slip each side of the standard Sony cover, holding the reader securely in place away from the edges of the case.
It has a zip closure allowing the cover to open flat.

The best bit is that it adds only 100 grams to the reader as against nearly 300 grams by some of the proprietary offerings. Why buy a reader that is lighter than a paperback then weigh it down with a heavy cover so that it then weighs like a large hardback.

The combination of this case with the Sony one I think adds more drop protection than many of the others. Plus if you are paranoid there is room to boost the padding.

And you get a free Ford (Europe) Focus with each one
