Note: You'll notice that my reader is mounted low and to the right versus a more aesthetically pleasing centered. This is to facilitate getting my fingers on the page turn button (right arrow) in the scroll wheel in a comfortable manner. It also leaves room for a cliplight up top as well. I also made sure to mount my Velcro on the reader where my fingers would not have to rest on it when holding the device when it was not mounted to the cover as I don't think that would be a very pleasing experience. (even as wonderful as Velcro is!) Bottom line - if you opt to make a cover for yourself then "play a round" for a while to get things positioned properly for your own fit.

I love it, I might try something like that out for my Sony 505. Great idea!
