I've gone through two covers now.

The first one came with the PRS-505. It lasted until I dropped it on the bus and it snapped the top bit of the plastic spine so the reader didn't stay in anymore.

At that point I bought a black cover. That one too died months ago again from issues with the spine. This time the little bits that hold it inside the cover snapped off. I've taped it down with adhesive tape ever since but that's beginning not to stick at all (and isn't doing any the lining any favours).

This is getting annoying. The spine seems to be the real weak point of this. Is there any cover from anyone that doesn't suck? I refuse to waste any more money on the Sony ones. I just want a non-flimsy cover. Nothing fancy. It just needs to not break so easily.
