Homemade Jetbook Lite cover
I modified a Leather Buisness Card holder purchased from staples fo $12. It is leather and is made by Staples. I could not find it on the Staples web site. I just happened upon it in the store.
I was looking far a case to put the Jetbook Lite in but I deciced that I want a book like cover which is more conducive to reading. I wanted something that would provide some protection during handling can be put in a bag.
I cut out the back of the leather holder to accomodate the battery compartment of the Jetbook Lite. I used fabric rivets to secure the area around the the cutout. I made small cuts on the fabric attached to the leather. These cuts created thin strips that can be lifted and placed over the corners of the Jetbook Lite to hold it in place. The bottom left corner of the Jetbook Lite is attached to the cover by some heavy duty nylon thread. The thread is inserted through the lanyard hole of the Jetbook Lite and fastend to the cover.
I added a leather string/strap which is woven in the binding area of the cover. The string/strap is long enough to wrap around the closed cover and the end is inserted into a small hole in the back corner out of the way.
Anyway I posted this so anyonw with a little desire and time could make one for themselves.
Also I do not need to remove it for a battery change. There is plenty of room.
