I too am a fan of this cover, but with one critical caveat: there's a *MAGNET* in the front?!?!?!?

Why? There's no clasp on the cover itself, and the Nook (1 at least) has no magnetic switch for shutoff. Now I'm not at all happy about tossing the Nook in with my laptop (at least the ones with magnetic hard drives!).

The local B&N folks were unaware of the magnet (until I demonstrated it) and could not provide any explanation for its presence.... anyone here know?
