 I was asked for pics so here they are. I am very happy with this cover! The feel of it is amazing. The top right of the cover did come a little short of the edge of the Kindle, but I think this is done on purpose as the leather will streach over time. With just a gently pulling it does cover and I put an band around it over night and it is now covering the K without coaxing. It folds back easily as you can see below and is easy to press flat while reading. Again over time I suspect it will lay almost flat.  On my card it says "This Kindle belongs to..." and the under my number it says "Reward if found".. this is the only purpose I can see for the card holder. I especially love how beautifully it goes with my Borsa Bella case. The case is really the perfect size. I just got a slightly smaller version, she did as a test, it fits but is a little hard to get the K in the Cole Haan in and out. I think for Oberon covers you would not want anything smaller. |

Gorgeous. The Cole Haan cover looks floppy from the photos. Is it pretty sturdy and protective in person?
What floral case is that holding the Cole Haan? It is beautiful and matches so well with the leather.
Thanks.

It is a little floppy that is kind of the style but it is also protective and and well made. I do think having the additional case is the ideal way to travel around with it. I would not just through in a bag as is. Her is a link to the case. |

Don't you get custom screensavers by making a picture 'book'. Can't you just open the picture book to a page of it? I bet her Kindle isn't really asleep. . . .

Ann is correct. I loaded my screen savers on. It is east to do, which is why it is frrustrating that they just didn't add a save Option to the menu.  |

I think when the K2 is asleep, you are going to see Oscar Wilde & Co. L |

Leslie is correct, you can load up a file just like the K1, when you open each image, you even get a menu that gives you different sizing options. This is where Amazon could also add a "Save a Screensaver" option. Which I think would make it pretty fool proof. |

I received the saddle cole haan covers today. Bought one for myself & my husband. They are wonderful! Lighter than the amazon case which I was glad to see. I like cases pretty light. The leather and suede are fabulous! And are cases fit great. Doesn't cover up the power buttons at all. Maybe they had a batch that did. Some reviews seem to indicate the problem is only on some cases. Looks like it will fold back flat in time with coaxing . Mine already almost folds completely flat. Glad I purchased it. Will definitely be my only case.

Lisanr~ When you fold the cover back, try reaching in and just pushing the spine in. I do that and it folds back much better. |
