I was hoping you could give me some advice/insight.

I have the Amazon cover for my Kindle 2 and I must say that I love it. It's held up great over the past 10 months (including 6mo in the middle-east). The problem I have is that the cover is starting to sag over the screen. When It's closed there is a slight depression over the screen area of my Kindle. My concern is that it might be putting pressure on the screen. Has anybody else noticed this problem?

I'm looking at replacing it and am considering the Oberon covers but my main concern is the size. I really like that the Amazon cover doesn't add much thickness or bulk to the Kindle. Can anyone tell me how the Oberon covers compare to the basic Amazon cover as far as thickness and overall size? How stiff is the front cover? For those of you who've had the Oberon covers for a while, does the front cover seem to be sagging over the screen area? Thanks in advance for any help.

C.P.T.
