Oops, sorry (about the he/she thing). Glad to hear you'll be making covers for the Touch.

The new designs sound intriguing. Falling Leaves especially but interested to see the VanGogh Boats too. And of course the color choices. I am set initially for a Fire cover so I have time to pick out the perfect cover for it.

Be sure to check out the Oberon thread for more information on their plans for covers. http://www.kindleboards.com/index.php/topic,20993.0.html  and now back to our original programming about Noreve covers... Betsy |

For the people who have both Noreve's for the K2 and the K3, how easy or hard is it to hold the K3, and to snap the strap in place? Are the K3s as comfortable to hold as the K2s?

Michelle, yes the K3's are as comfortable as the K2's were. The snap goes in place just like the K2's did, only difference is it's on the front of the cover, I just fold it back and snap it. And you know the K3 covers have the little "stand" thing on the back but I don't even notice it being there, it doesn't get in the way or make it any more bulky or anything. Although I don't know why they put it there, you have to have the cover open to even use the stand. |

I just sent Noreve an e-mail that I hope they make a cover for the Touch.

Good idea, Michelle! Maybe if enough people ask, they'll change their mind about it.

So this is for the baby kindle? I wish they hadn't called it K4 because it implies it is an upgrade to the K3 which it isn't.

To be sure, Amazon doesn't call it the K4, they just call it the Kindle. K4 is the term adopted by fan groups (such as KindleBoards) and vendors to distinguish it. I prefer K-Mini myself, but it looks like K4 has won out... Betsy |

I just went and looked, you are right: Kindle, Kindle Touch and Kindle Keyboard.
Personally, I wish they just put the page turn buttons on the Kindle Touch and released only that -- we'd have enough variety with Special Offers or not and WiFi or WiFi & 3G.

What??? You doubted me? *places back of hand to forehead and feels faint* LOL!  As for your other point, maybe so. But I do so love my K-Mini  and I don't really want a touch screen....and they are selling like hotcakes. I don't think Amazon can sell a touch screen device at that price point. Betsy |

Awwww Michelle, why did you have to show me that??? I want one for my Touch so badly. Maybe they will change their mind once they see how many people buy the Touch, that would be nice. |

I wish they'd included photos of the back. I'm hoping there's NO stand - the description doesn't mention one. |

I have two K3 Noreves and was hesitant to buy one because of the stand on the back, but I have to admit I never even notice it. Never use it either.....but it doesn't get in the way at all like I thought it would. I really want one for my Touch  |

What??? You doubted me? *places back of hand to forehead and feels faint* LOL! Sorry for doubting you! How could I even think for one second that Amazon would call it the Kindle 4? I remember after the Kindle 3 was out for a few months reading a review saying the new Kindle is called the Kindle 3 by everyone in the world except Amazon. I wish they'd included photos of the back. I'm hoping there's NO stand - the description doesn't mention one. I don't think this one has a stand. The description of the K3 mentions it has a stand and this one doesn't. I really want one for my Touch Yeah, when the Kindles were just announced, I was thinking if I kept both I would like the Kindle Baby/4/mini/lite in an Oberon and the Touch in a Noreve. So Oberon discontinues the cover I want and Noreve says it won't make a cover for the Touch.  I saw that you ordered the Belkin for your Touch. That is what I have for the mini and it is growing on me. The downside to it is it doesn't have a snap, just magnets to hold it close and sometimes they can break when you don't want them to. I have a feeling that Noreve will add a cover for the Touch. I can't wait for the Touch to come out, I wish it was shipping before the Fire. |

Michelle, at first I had ordered the non-lighted Amazon cover for the Touch, especially when I saw that they had it in purple But then after looking at it more carefully, I'm not sure I like the way the Touch fits down into the Amazon cover. My reason for that is mostly because my very favorite light is the M-Edge E-Luminator and it has that little "tab" that slides in between the Kindle and the cover and I think the way the Touch fits down into that Amazon cover, it wouldn't allow the tab to slip in there, so I switched and ordered the Belkin cover. Several people have gotten the Belkin for their Baby Kindles and have been pleased with them. And it also comes in purple I'm actually considering the Belkin a "temporary" cover because I ultimately hope to get a Noreve. I'm still hoping they change their minds and make one for the Touch. |

I was going to get the lighted cover, but it doesn't have a way of closing. I was going to get the purple Belkin for the Kindle Lite but they were temporarily out, and my experience with the K2 and K3 made me want a cover right away so I went with black. The Belkin actually feels really nice, the trouble I have with it is the magents sometimes break open when I move my hand. For the Touch I might get the purple Belkin or the Marware, but they are to have a cover right away and make a final decide when we see if Noreve actually makes a Touch cover (and if I am keeping the Touch).
