The "slip in" covers add bulk and never fit perfectly. There's always some space for dust, sometimes you even can put your fingernail between reader and case.
And the straps, in my opinion, just are distracting and not very "elegant".
So, if available for the respective reader, I always go for solutions like the ones from Sony: Fixing the reader at its spine to the cover. This way, you really get the "book feeling", add almost no bulk and the reader remains accessible, for example to press a reset button on the back, exchange the battery or something like that.
Covers like that are available (at least) for Sony readers, Kindles, nook, iRex 800:

For Kindle 2, there's another very nice solution: I've got a polycarbonat "full body armor shell". It doesn't cover the display, but it's perfect protection for example against dropping the reader from the sofa.
