I know; I can't get the pics to load for some reason, it just keeps saying "uploading files, please wait." Will try again in a few minutes.

Here are some picture of my Oberon cover. It's the 600 version. Not on their website, but I emailed them. It fits very securely with the straps.

The sleeve is very nice. It's a good size to fit the reader and the case. Well done.

I've just got a letter from Noreve that their case for 650 is out:
http://www.noreve.com/product_info.php?products_id=2445
I wonder if those braces are secure enough. Cause I definitely like that they leave most of the reader visible.

I got my boyfriend one of these for his nook, it's gorgeous. The rail system is very secure, no worries about it falling out. The leather is the nicest leather I've come across in a while, even better than Oberon (sorry! ).

They are kind of expensive. The price shown includes VAT, which means it'll be lower for folks in the US and wherever else you don't pay VAT. There's also a coupon that might still work for 10% off (I think?) that is generationmp3. Keep in mind that if you order anything but standard black, it will take about a month to get to you (in the US) because they make them on demand. If you're patient, it's definitely worth it.

It really looks like the 650 fits perfectly in the case for the 600. Have you tried the 'shake test' ? It's my mom's birthday soon, and she wants an Oberon case to go with the PRS 650 she'll be getting from my dad.

Obviously. Unless you're really really really sure the case is going to pass the test

Yes, I have tried the shake test a number of times, and it's always passed with flying colors.

And no worries, I did so over a pillow or soft surface.

I'm rather paranoid about dropping my reader given some of the horror stories I've heard. It's one of the reasons I decided to splurge on a nice cover.

Thanks ! I've send them an email, I just hope they'll be willing to make one of those discontinued sony covers for me as well
