Case for Kobo touch
Hi all,
has anyone found a good quality case with an integrated light for the Touch? I have seen some for Kindle 4, not sure if they'll fit the Touch? cheers for any help, dq |

I picked up this one last week when I got my Touch:
[Image too large - MODERATOR] [Image too large - MODERATOR] http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/produ...86c2d1b115en02 It's awesome. I love it; though, it's the only case I've had so I don't know how it compares to others... Last edited by Dr. Drib; 01-21-2012 at 05:00 AM. |

We have 3 Kobo's in our house, and 2 of them have the Skin Digital real leather book style cases:
http://www.skindigitalstore.com/prod...ase-Cover.html The third one has a CaseCrown, which is essentially a synthetic material clone of the Skin Digitals: http://www.casecrown.com/ebook-readers/kobo-touch These are all very high quality, extremely well designed, and SD's are the lowest cost you're going to find for a real leather case, very highly recommended! Mind you, no light included, but the design is intended to allow the front cover to fold back on itself and lock in place with the closure clip, leaving a 1/4" gap between the back cover and the folded back front one. Then you can clip on any brand of LED style light to the cover you want without interference or fear of damaging your screen, and it's very secure without flopping around and falling off. We use these ones, but purchased from Costco in 2-packs for $13CDN; http://www.amazon.com/Fulcrum-Multi-..._ob_hi_title_1 An added plus is that these cases (both the SD's and CC's) are specifically designed for the Kobo Touch, with a proper solid frame that securely holds the device in without covering any switches or ports. All of the competing devices that use elastic strap look so cheap and homemade! And in most cases the straps cover the power switch and SD card slot so using them is a pain.

I think it's cheaper to buy a cover and then a light to attach to it. I have a SD cover which I bought off ebay and it was very cheap! I bought a cheap ereader light and the total for both came to $25.

The closest I have found available in the UK (well, from 21 January supposedly) is the Cover-up, available from Amazon at about twice the price of the Skin Digital cover/case. Thanks. |

I've not looked at any other cases so I can't compare, but very happy with this one. |
