I have an affliction.
I have an affliction. Although I have a beloved PRS-650 that has treated me with kindness MOST of the time, I covet the PRS-T1. I've read the troubling posts about freezing and page flipping but that has not deterred my lust. Fantasies of how I would dress my new beauty have invaded my consciousness for days. My willpower lost, I've just ordered the white one. Intervention is too late.

![]() I'm sure you will love it as I do my red one. With what are you going to dress your precious white T1? |

An artist on Etsy.com makes covers with beautiful papers and artwork that are made like a hardcover book. She also makes custom covers if you send her a digital photograph or artwork although I am partial to a few of her pre-existing pieces. I think it will be one of these two...(although I may modify how my precious is attached) Last edited by readergirl218; 11-18-2011 at 04:56 PM. |

Both of those like really good. Is there a place inside those covers for the stylus? How is your precious secured to the cover?

I couldn't resist the T1 either, so I got a black one from Best Buy a few weeks ago. While I don't doubt the stories of people who have frequently run into issues with theirs, I've had absolutely no trouble with mine so far *knocks on wood*

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCViJ..._order&list=UL I've never had a need to use the stylus on my present reader so the updated stylus change doesn't really affect me. Have a great day Jersysman! |

The last thing I needed was another reader, but when they dropped the price of the T1, I ordered a white one. It's great!
I LOVE the back button and how easy it is to change the font. And it's so light! I have small hands and larger readers get heavy to hold one-handed. I also broke down and bought a case after seeing a white one which really has a pearly finish, not really white. I haven't experienced any problems with mine. It's been a pleasure reading with it since I got it! You'll love yours too! ![]() |

Well the stylus ain't very heavy - but you could go up-market and stick a bit of velcro on the cover/case and ditto on the stylus....
Less trouble to use clone ones and lose 'em..... ![]() PLUS.... you can flick paper pellets at people if you use the 'laggie band approach...... ![]() |

Readergirl218, could you provide a link to the etsy shop? I've been looking but there are hundreds/thousands of ereader covers and I haven't hit on the right one yet! Those covers are really lovely and unusual!

She has a beautiful selection of Alphonse Mucha Art Nouveau images (not on her site but available). Also some lovely Japanese art images. |
