Does the M-edge 2 light work with this cover?

Based on what I know about the M-Edge 2, no, at least not without modifications.

8 Leather Kindle covers from Oberon Designs. Pricey at $75 each.

Pics of a cover in use from the Kindleboards site.

Edit: Fixed the link to the picture of the cover in use.

thats a little pricey dont you think?

after the money we have already spent on the readers, that is not that daunting

My wife bought me the Roof of Heaven Oberon Kindle 2 Cover (w/straps) for our 37th wedding anniversary. I can't wait until it arrives! The hardest decision for me was whether I wanted blue or purple. I decided to go with the blue, since the accompanying text in Camille Flammarion's 1888 book L'atmosphère: météorologie populaire where the anonymous wood engraving makes it's first definite appearance reads in part, "What, then, is this blue sky, which certainly does exist, and which veils from us the stars during the day?"

Congratulations on your new cover and more importantly on 37 years of marriage!

Did you get the blue or the purple? I've got to admit, even though they didn't post a picture of the purple one on their site, I photo-shopped the picture of the blue to make it match the purple in some of their other photos and it was gorgeous! It really was a difficult decision.

kindlekitten · 11-27-2009, 01:50 AM

I was really tempted to get the purple but went with the blue... I figured it was best for the heaven/sky theme

Pushka · 11-27-2009, 07:18 PM

I have purple!

It is very nice.

I'm sorta' jealous! Wish I could afford to buy a second one! Do you have a picture of it?

Have anyone tried to fit a Kindle in a silicone cover into an Oberon cover?

I could just fit in my Sony in a silicone cover into an M-Edge cover, so I thought it might work with these as well... Not that it's a huge deal, it would just be nice. I'd really like to put a dark blue 'raven' cover on my Christmas wish list

kindlekitten · 11-28-2009, 12:02 PM

I haven't but I do have both. I think that it would probably work since the retaining straps are leather. I think the reason it would work is that the leather could stretch just enough to accomadate the extra width of the silicone. having done that though I think that you would always have to use the silicone case inside it, that the leather would be stretched too far to keep it secure without having that extra cover on

Here's the blue with the (same picture photoshopped by me to look) purple Roof of Heaven K2 cover. Did I get the color right on the purple?
