20% off @ M-Edge Online - Page 2

denisek · 02-23-2010, 09:04 PM

I ordered the "go" cover and light on Sat night and used the 20% off and received them today.

The cover and light are very nice. The inside certainly looks like suede. Don't know about lint yet.

If I had to order again I would have spent the extra money and gotten a slightly bigger case. The light sits out side of the case.
I can live with it.

How odd! I hope you find a solution. Can I ask about how sturdy the case itself is please? Is it just neoprene and totally bendy (and possibly suseptible to pointy objects going through it) or does it have some reinforcement / stiffening at least infront of the screen?

(I note that your case is the neoprene one that I am also interested in, while rmm and JanJ seem to have leather cases so it's quite possible that the lining materials are different too.)

Yes, the lining on the that cover is polar fleece. That would explain possible lint problems. The leather covers are lined with suede.

Well hello fellow Disney nut!! LOL

And thanks for pointing that out. I read the details of the case when I bought it but was more into deciding style and color and didn't pay much attention to the fleece part. That explains it! Ugh - oh well. I have a microfibre towel that I use for my glasses that I'll use for my reader as well then. It's not major, it just bothers me a lot.

Storm, it's not neoprene it's a nylon material and yes it does have something stiff on the inside of both the front and back covers for protection. I don't know how much protection it offers for something sharp going through it. If you're thinking of in a purse or briefcase I'd think you should be safe. If someone was putting force into stabbing the case, it'd definately be a problem.

I don't really like using the light on the outside of the case so what I do is just put the tab from the light between the reader and the case. It's a tight fit so it doesn't slide around and it works great. Not the way it was intended but it works. I find with the light on the outside of the case I can't get the angle right to light my reader and I can't really fold the cover of the case back. I do like that I can choose a color and that it zips up and holds a light.

Thanks -- that's really helpful. I'm hoping my reader isn't actually going to come under attack, but I want to be able to throw it into a backpack while I'm doing some fairly rough hiking and it might get bumped around quite a bit, thrown up onto luggage racks etc - I won't be carrying a separate purse or small handbag.

It's definitely textile. You can see the weave.
