Does anyone have the above-referenced cover? If so, could you give an overview of it and post as many pics as possible? Is this suede? OCTO Vintage Leather Kindle2 Book Cover |

I have it. Not suede. Oiled leather look. Beautiful. Very masculine.

My son has one. I have a Cole Haan, and I think I like the OCTO better because it's hard and protects the screen more. It has a "different" feel to it -- not smooth leather like my CH, but not rough-feeling by any means. Smooth in a different way, if that makes sense. It folds back nicely, and is comfortable to hold. Very sturdy feeling. I got my son the black matte skin (from Decalgirl) which matches the inside cover -- looks great, and makes the screen really pop. I only wish the black Kandle had been available (or I'd known about it) when I was outfitting his K2.
As wkerby said, it can be very masculine, but I think it'd be fine for a woman too. In fact, I'm thinking about getting one just for the added screen protection. I think you'd love it. (Sorry, I don't do pictures.)

In lieu of the lengthy process of posting pictures in a message, I posted a picture of my K2 as my profile picture. A little hard to see, but I'm pleased with the case. More expensive than some; less than Oberon.

I'd like to see a larger picture - are there instructions anywhere for how to imbed pix into a message? Is it like HTML code?

I have had no success following the rules for posting pictures. If it does show, cut and past the URL, and you will see my cover.  http://www.flickr.com/photos/52084307@N00/4425448781/ |

On the Octovo site, the Vintage Leather looks very black-ish in places. Do you find that's true of yours, or is it basically weathered-looking brown?
