See, I'm trying not to be an "Up person" today.

I think you have Valentine's Day confused with another holiday ... I'm ... not sure which one it would be ....

Sorry, that's right. I was thinking of Saint Dymphna's Day.

By way of compensating for my error, here's an emoticon of a little bunny rabbit:



Ahhh, isn't it cute?




I wonder what it'd taste like.

Cheers,
Marc

Brown D&B cover looks fantastic!

Although quite expensive. I would better save $150 for the next reader.

I really like that brown cover, but that name D&B makes it too expensive. Then again, it's all about fashion and exclusivity. I think just having a Reader is exclusive enough, but hey, you can have a cover to make it even more exclusive.

What's with the keychain? Are you suppose to attach it to the Reader and put it in your pocket when not in use? My pockets, big as they are, aren't THAT big.

That said, if I had seen this two weeks ago I probably would have sprung for it though. I already purchased the plain, black, leather case.

No it's for that new Sony reader the dotfive'o'five. 2" eink screen. It's read like a Nano.

I guess that picture is almost to scale.

While the brown cover is really nice and lux looking, I can think of a lot of things to do with $150.00 rather than spend it on a cover! Besides, I ordered a black cover from ABT Electronics back in December (back ordered), but I got it about 1 week ago!

Love it!

Every time I try to add it to my cart (D&B Cover) it hangs, and I get an error just trying to add it to my wishlist. Wanted to pick it up for the wifey, but looks like she'll have to wait.

Funny, everytime I try to add it to my cart, I get an error too. It says:
"You don't have $150 to be spending on a cover!"

Has anybody seen the inside of the D&B cover? It sure looks nice from the outside, but I wish I could see what the inside is made of. Does it have pockets, or a pen-holder? If anybody could post a picture I'd sure appreciate it.

Thanks everybody

I'm new up here (thanks to Wikipedia) and this was the one I was eying. Hate romance novels, but really love that cover. It's on my list of "possibles" once I solve my problem of which e-book reader to purchase.
