Adding a Hand Strap

I'll put this out there w/hopes that others have thought about this & figured out how to do this: I just upgraded to a Sony Wi-Fi (T1RC) from the two-years-ago version. Love the improvements except that it doesn't have a loop for a hand strap (like the ones used for digital cameras). For those of you who are OCD like me, have you figured a way to add one to the Sony or any eReader? On many occasions, I almost lost my eReader but for the saving grace of the hand-strap.

Your shared thoughts/ideas are greatly appreciated. Happy holidays.

My PEz came with a Strap and a hole to thread it.
The first thing I noticed about my K4NT: No hole to even place a strap.

I have not tried USING a reader with one of these (I think the bulk/roughness might be annoying)

Pay attention to apply on a (hand) oil free surface. Replace the mount when the sticky tape dries out as it ages

How about, get a "book-type" cover that holds the device firmly - and drill/poke a hole through a sturdy part of that , and make up an "artistic" loop of your choice........... ?
