Amazon Hinges to Oberon Cover?

[Luvmy4brats]

Possibly, but I didn't want to do anything permanent to the Oberon. The Amazon is a bit smaller than the Oberon, so I'm not sure how it would work.

  would like to see how it works out in the long run.. no hard done feelings here.  like i said it's just me.

Zinnia, you're not alone, I agree with you completely.  (But also support others right to hinge  )

I don't see how it would be any different than the journal/amazon combo that people have been using for the last year. It's been working for them just fine. This is just a more streamlined version.

Hey luvmy4brats, that looks just like mine except I used the go cover. Took a bit more effort to get it apart, but the cover medge uses is very stiff - hard plastic so it is very secure. And the insert can be moved from cover to cover. I have no concerns in the long run. If you don't want to do it , then, well don't!  Given that the hinge system is patented then the cost of purchasing the rights to use it is most likely prohibitive for Oberon and perhaps a reason why they don't use it. Just a guess.

Pushka, thanks for the info on the Go cover. I may try that later.

To be honest, I only did this to see how it would turn out because I had an Amazon cover laying around. I never actually intended to use it like this, but I really like it.

Question for Luvmy4brats:  Does attaching the Kindle to the hinge you've added to your Oberon place the Kindle further to the right side of the Oberon cover?  I can't tell from the pics.

It's exactly where it would be if it were in the cover by itself.

Thanks.  I think I might try it.
