I looked at these today. I was not happy with them.

1. They are soft. There is no protection for the screen. If I carried it around, my thumb/fingers would be pressing against the screen.

2. It's a sleeve. You have to pull the e-reader out to use it and stuff it back in. So when you're reading, you have to do something with the sleeve.

3. It's expensive for what it is.

I am currently using a DVD case. I got an older one with a thin plastic wall around the DVD (rather than the thick plastic) and cut that stuff out. The KOBO fits perfectly in it and is much better protected.
