But a vendor on ebay was trying to sell it and the pochetbook into the cover was broken :/
What do you think of it ? on french amazon, the reviews are quite bad, but they seem to be good in the german version
The pocketbook is clipped into the cover, right ?

Yes, the reader clips into the cover.
The problem is some of those covers (very similar, sold in my country under different name) were made for PB622 and the PB623 - touch Lux is a tiny bit thicker. I have compared 622 and 623 and the 623 *is* a little bit thicker.
An e-ink reader specialized seller in my country reports that not all of those covers can accommodate PB623 easily. With some reader-cover combination you can't fully close the cover.
Otherwise, this would be my cover of choice. No rubber bands across the corners of the device.
The manufacturer spends a fortune, trying to engineer the thinnest, lightest, most elegant device and we put in into a cover that doubles the weight and thickness, with attachment system that looks like a clumsy hack.
I can't understand why manufacturer of [insert any of the devices here] can't make a device with attachment points (threaded holes, small hoops, depressions, or at very least without a strangely curved back and sides ... sigh ...
