Are you in Australia? If so and you wish to buy locally DADirect.com have the Hanlin V5 for $349 (plus freight I believe), which includes the cover. Alternatively, which is what I did, I ordered the Astak Pocket Pro from the US. After currency conversion it worked out about $280AUS inc freight. This package included a cover. Only real difference in terms of actual package contents buying the Hanlin V5 locally and the Astak PP was the Astak PP did not include an AC to USB power adapter for Australian power points, but they are cheap for about $15, or you could just use your PC for charging the unit.

Hope it helps.
