that's the idea.

I would love to see a video or some pictures of the tuff lov cover when someone here gets one.

It prevents your stuff, i.e. coat pockets and bags from being poked holes into, other things from being scratched.

You can make it a gift opportunity. Find a company you really love like Cartier, Montblanc or Smythson (they have the most adorable colours) and have yourself gifted with matching wallet, key wallet, pen case and make up bag.

You will be able to buy the most expensive bags and keep them for eternity this way. And good looking too, as there will be no ink stains, no lipstick smears and no holes in them.

Think about it: all great leather companies supply this things since ages, there is a reason why.

That would be great, if I carried a purse. My problem is that I'm in the Army, and the purse is just not a good fashion accessory when I'm out and about. My old PEz was great for dropping in a pocket, but an unfortunate blow broke the screen. I've grown used to the Pearl screen and menu options of the Sony.

I have it on order and will post when it arrives. I think I'm going to have to go for the hillbilly version and use a rubber band and piece of plastic to protect the screen. Your protector might be just the thing if it has some padding against bumps or snapped on to the TuffLuv. If you're looking for a beta tester, I'm just a PM away.

A key wallet will prevent your keys from scratching your reader regardless if thrown into a pocket of your jacket or into a purse.

Yes, I was thinking of making the front cover a mesh so people can slide in their custom cover to protect the screen, this will also save the production cost, as it will minimize the amount of plastic being used. the current cardboard prototype was a conversion from a dual CD jewel case shipping box.

looking forward to see your video.

Oh, bother! Why doesn't this case come in puce or mauve?

(Actually, I like black but wonder whether one wants to be tugging a large silicone-coated object out of one's pocket desperately in the middle of a New York building entry search.)

Rhetorial question: Joke about unmanly color choices and my fragile masculinity.

Edit: "Oh, bother!" is a phrase often used by Winnie-the-Pooh, an incredibly virile teddy bear from children's books written in the 1920s. He is often seen lifting weights while gambling, instigating barroom brawls and hitting on lightly mascara'd red pandas that are clearly out of his league.

Parenthetical: Joke about the cloying texture of silicone and the bulk of the reader conspiring to create issues for people like me, who pass through a metal detector checkpoint five days a week and might be pulling at their jacket pockets trying to get the thing out quickly to run through the machine.
