Good to hear you're enjoying it! Feedbooks absolutely rocks. I love being able to browse the file and just click to dowload straight to the Kindle.
I found one-handed reading with the original cover fairly easy if you fold the cover back, and put the kindle in the crook between your thumb and forefinger, and use your thumb to turn pages. However, with my original cover, my Kindle would fall out if I were reading with it facing Kindle-down.

Sure, why not... LOL. Anyway, thanks to everyone for their tips on how to hold the Kindle with the cover. However, I like holding it nakedly. Any advice for that?

And if you don't win a skin, buy one! LOL!
There's pictures of people's skinned Kindles over in Accessories....come to the dark side.... Or, as they said in Poltergeist, go to the light!!!
