I use it without turning it completely flat and I can hold it with either hand that it's not any bit awkward. I can take some more pictures to show you what I'm telling you if you want.

Thank you very much for the reply

I think I can visualize what you're saying, although I wouldn't mind pictures either if it's not too much of a bother

Hey kindle users I have a request for help. I need a new case. It must be buyable from amazon,
must be leather,
and also need to fold like a book like this cover
http://www.amazon.com/Marware-Eco-Vu.../dp/B0046A8YEO
also, it must be less than $40
so any suggestions?

Anyone have a Klever Case? If so, is the hardcover feel like a real book?

No idea, but Dracula one is cool

Is this a good cover?

As in, is it worth it?

You should ask them for other details: How thick is it? Is the front stiff? Can a clip-on light be easily added?

Is it real leather? 'Cause $9.98 sounds cheap...

I got the Hemp EcoNique cover and it is a really nice one. At night I use a light, it is the Mighty Bright XtraFlex2 Clip-On Light. It works very well but I don't like the complexity and the sheer bulk of the total package.

I find the Amazon lighted cover very nice, but the price we have to pay is a bit over the top (Unfortunately if I order the 49,50 one from Amazon US I still have to shell out 60 Euro's, the same price as in England)

Now.....on Ebay there's some really nice covers for affordable prices.

So I bought this cover. It has a light that works very well and only cost me 16 Britsh Pounds and I really like it.

It is nothing fancy, but it provides good protection, has a magnetic cover, you can read it in bed with the light........

I was/am on a tight budget so I bought the KSO.

Spending 25$ on a cover seemed too much, to me.. So guess what?

Maths books are rather cool

kindlekitten · 09-10-2011, 05:18 PM

haha clever

perhaps a little heavy, but clever!

I'd read somewhere that a kindle covers made it as heavy as a hardcover. This ain't that heavy..

fr0stbit3 · 09-11-2011, 04:13 AM

Also.. Now that I think of it.. I wonder.. Is weight really an issue? I doubt if i will ever read with the kindle in my cover. The only real use of this cover is to prevent damage while transportation.

Since I'm still a n00b could you tell me if it really is an issue?

maianhvk · 09-11-2011, 04:28 AM

Yeah, I myself prefer it naked. Sometimes I like to "feel" the cover surface, sometimes I'd like it as lightest as possible. But FrostBite, be very careful with it. I broke the screen once... almost gave me a heartache

But shhhhh, if JSWolf is here he'll say we're all so silly because letting the fragile Kindle out of the cover is the most stupid thing on earth!

fr0stbit3 · 09-11-2011, 05:07 AM

So I should keep it in the cover even at home? That would suck.. I mean the point of a kindle is reading the LOTR trilogy without straining your arm.. As of now its naked at home and covered in my bag. That alright?

Also.. Broke your screen? Ouch .. How did you get it fixed? Amazon? Does amazon refurbish it outside the US,too?

maianhvk · 09-11-2011, 08:55 AM

First thing first. You can use it naked at home and covered outdoors, that's alright as long as you're very, very careful.

And my case. Well, after my heart started beating again, I called a lot of people, then went to MR and asked for some tips and then successfully called Amazon (because I forgot the code for international calling

).
They sent me another K3 for almost free, shipped immediately the next day through priority shipping. I paid for the VAT and some other fees, which costed about $30. That was all... I guess if I'd lived in America or somewhere near, they'd have asked me to return the broken device.
