Just to make the observation: unlike many readers out there, the sony touch casing is metal, not plastic. It is very sturdy and, as can be expected from sony, excelently build. You would have to look out for crayons on the screen perhaps, but otherwise I trust it to keep quite well even in the hands of those little destroyers.

For simple storage Sony also includes a foam case - while not elegant or even stury, it does ensure the reader can survive a drop with no problem, say for example from a tabletop.

If you are not nightblind the light of the Sony Cover with Light should be more than enough to read by - I always use it at the lowest setting with no trouble whatsoever (though at the end of a battery's life its brightness does diminish somewhat - I have been using mine on the original battery for a month now and it is getting somewhat less bright). While definately not worth the extra money that ridiculously expensive case costs, it is by far the best option I have seen so far if you want a no-nonsense, sturdy leather case with inbuild light.
