I have purchased a Kindle 2 Oberon cover for my PRS900. It takes a bit of "unengineering" to make it work well, but I love it. I purchased the Roof of Heaven" in sky blue. I had to remove the stitched-on vertical Velcro tab on the cover, move it an inch to the left, and glue it down. Remove the stitcing with a seam ripper (never heard of one before my wife showed it to me). I tried with a razor blade and slashed the inner cover a bit.

Before I attached any of the Velcro to the reader, I ran a 1" wide piece of packaging tape from where the sony reader cover (flap) attaches to the unit and over onto the removable cover down the height of the device.

Attach the Velcro to the unit and voila! It works great! I have shook it, dropped it, and it holds the PRS900 securely. And it's beautiful. Want more info? boardmanlaw@comcast.net
