Book Armour/armor recommendations please.

I would be grateful for recommendations of 505 covers which are toughened. I'm clumsy, and want to protect my reader, especially now that the 505 has been discontinued.

Please put links to sites. UK sites preferred to avoid horrendous p&p.

The stock cover that came with the 505 has always worked good for me. I've carried it daily in backpack or messenger bag every day for the last 7 months and have never had a problem with it. I've also dropped it a half dozen times on a hard surface with no problems whatsoever.

I picked up a flip-top 'Easy i' that's specially designed for the 505, Book Cat. Reinforced and padded black leather, closes securely with a sturdy stud. Pretty tough. Easy to hold and operate in one hand and can be free standing if, like me, you tend to read over solo meals. Looks great, feels luxurious and also smells like one of those swanky tooled leather volumes they won't let you take out of the library. Cheers. Neil

Do you have a link, perchance? No luck googling "easy i". Thanks.

The Bookarmor works great, and you can buy it directly on Amazon.co.uk, with free shipping and no import fees.
