Have one? Like it? Hate it?  Does the strap that holds the cover open/closed get stretched out over time?  Do you recommend this cover for one-handed reading? 

They're actually B1G1 on Marware's website right now, for the K3.  I can't decide.  Right now I have a cheap faux leather cover that I bought on ebay for about $5 but it's bulky and isn't very comfortable when folded back for one handed reading.

I'm sure someone here has bought one and will give you some feedback.  I think our members have bought all the covers, LOL!

I ended up buying it and am liking it so far.  It's durable, but not bulky, and easy to hold with one hand.

I was eyeing this cover.  Can you easily turn the pages with one hand?  Can you comfortably slip either hand in it to read?

I was eyeing this cover.  Can you easily turn the pages with one hand?  Can you comfortably slip either hand in it to read?

Because it's new the hand strap is tight where I have to pull it outward with one hand while sliding my other hand under it. Once placed it's comfortable and I can hold the K easily.  With my hand inside the strap my thumb is not positioned close to the turn-page button but rather is up near the top of the K, so when I want to turn the page I have to either bend my thumb downward or use my palm where it meets my thumb, if that makes sense. Another option is using my free hand to turn the page but I suppose this isn't really considered one-handed reading.  It does fold back easily, is very light and compact.  I like the way it looks. It stays closed without a buckle which I appreciate because on my previous cover the buckle would sometimes get in the way of my reading; I was always bending it back out of the way.

There is a photo on Marware's website that shows a hand inside the strap and from it you can see how your thumb will not be aligned with the turn-page button but more so toward the top of the K. This isn't a big deal for me and I've learned to work around it.

The right of the 5-way controller is somewhat tedious to press because the edge of the case comes pretty close to it. I didn't notice this until last night when I did a few dictionary look-ups.

This cover for Kindle Keyboard is currently buy 1 get 1 free on Marware's website, so I now have two.  I obviously don't need 2 so am trying to sell one on eBay.  I wish I had just bought one on eBay to begin with to save myself the hassle.

I've also noticed that these are being sold on Amazon with Condition described as "Used - Like New" although they're actually new according to the description.  This is probably because Amazon doesn't give the option of selling one in New condition.  This being the case you can probably find one for close to $16 w/ shipping if you don't want to spend the $35 on two.
