I recieved the Gecko KT cover for review a few days ago and it is very nice indeed.

Cannot comment on fit just yet as my attempts to obtain a KT floundered after I thought the purchase was a done deal.

Oh, please do tell us how it is when you have it. I've actually bought from Skindigital before, but the Nook Color cover I bought from them looks fairly different from these KT covers, so it's hard to judge.

My Casecrown Regal flip cover works a treat, and I'm very pleased with it.

Checked my mailbox in the afternoon and the case came
I really like the colour.
The case adds quite a bulk to the kobo, especially around the screen. The screen is already a bit lower than the border and after putting the KT in the case the screen is even lower. A minor annoyance when turning the page...because when you turn the page, your thumb or finger has touch the edge of the case..Does that make sense?

Photos (case is richer and brighter in colour in rl):

Just picked this one up a couple days ago, and it's awesome.
Makes it a bit heavy, but definitely better than anything else I've tried, the texture feels better than the leather ones out there, fits perfectly, does not cover the power slider, micro usb port, or the home button.
Highly recommended!

For $49 you can pick up the Werx Kobo eReader Portfolio Case With Light (KB-K2P-2192BB-CN), if a light interests you. I've seen them at Futureshop.

Am I the only one surprised at the expense of a case? $35-50 for a carry case. Wow.

I got one of the Skindigital case's and I like it except that it isn't very easy to get back out of the case to read bareback. But protection wise it's great.



P.S I have the black bookstyle leather one.

I agree with you. I'm okay with them being at the $10-15 range... even $20 if it's good quality... but $30-50? That's almost 1/3rd of the eReader itself. Local artisans could probably make a much better custome made leather case for that kind of price.

I have just received my blue Casecrown one (same design as the Skindigital ones but not leather) and am very pleased with it.
