Sony Reader covers - what color do you pick? - Page 2

Nathan, I think he meant like your converted cutout book!

I saw it Slava, and it was really cool. We worried about the air security angle -- might look too much like a bad spy hideout, but other than that, it really does just look like a book on the outside, and it fits great on the inside. Very nifty, but definitely not for everyone! ;-)

I wish I'd taken a pic of it while we were out there.

I'll just have to do that once I've got something to put in it again.

Slava · 09-27-2006, 04:31 PM

Yes, I'll probably do something similar, but need to find good cover first. Something classy like "Reading for idiots" or "How to learn to read in 24 hours"

What else could they say?

"I'd Rather Be Reading"

I'm waiting for Vaja to come out with a cover (need strong reader sales!).

They make the best cases for PDAs and cell phones. They are pricy but I have never been sorry for a purchase from them.

Is the cover order-able from Sony? I have a few slick LED clip-on lights, but I'm really interested in that sexy brown cover.

You can already order it, but it's not available for delivery yet (at least mine isn't, and I picked the brown one too).

Tan case ordered.

*ka-ching*

Cancelling the order for the cover. I think it would add too much bulk and weight, and I like the black cover.

Slava · 10-04-2006, 12:03 PM

May be you can get green one ?-)
It will look lovely during long gray cold winter evenings

Does anyone have any good ideas on how to clean the cover? The suade is already starting to pick up a bit of dust and other specks.

Sony should market Reader differently - You can read the books and dust the room
