A case that works - Page 3

Dinodoc · 05-09-2010, 09:16 PM

I think given this is my first ebook reader, I would love a nice cover that has Don't Panic embossed on the front

You know, I thought a custom Gelaskin thingie with that on it would be pretty awesome.

Don't worry, you'll get used to it, tech-savvy or not!

I'm tempted by the M-edge cover, but I still think it's a little pricy for something that won't fit perfectly, so I'll wait for the "official" case, then make my decision.

I defintiely want a flip open case. My only concern with buying one not made for the kobo is the pressure of the cover pushing down on the front button while it's in my bag. I hope when (if) kobo gets their cases out it has a way of keeping the button from being pushed when the cover is closed.

I have a case from Bobarra for the Kindle 2 that fits the Kobo decently. I've been keeping the Kobo in this case when I go out.

My Oberon case is way too big and M-Edge case won't work because it uses the special Kindle 2 hinge.

I'm holding out for a flip open case.

Duiker · 05-12-2010, 04:13 PM

Does anyone know if any of the Nook cases work? If so can you post a pic?

Thrasher · 05-12-2010, 04:25 PM

I meant book type cases. You know, the kind that flip open?

Oh yes. Are they planning on making those as well?

Unknown, but I certainly hope so.

Here are pics of the Kobo in the M-Edge Go! Jacket for Nook. There is extra room at the top, but the corners do fit under the straps. My mom put some two-way tape (very light scrapbooking type stuff) on the case, and it holds it just fine without leaving any marks on the reader itself. Not sure if that is really necessary or not...

Sorry, they aren't the greatest pictures.
