Has anyone ordered something like these covers called "splash SAFARI Slim-Profile Leather Case Cover fits the Amazon Kindle Touch" and what do you think about it; for example: splash SAFARI Slim-Profile Leather Case Cover fits the Amazon Kindle Touch (ORANGE)? The pricing ($13.85) is hard to believe... is it not?

That looks very interesting indeed. From the outside, it's almost an exact copy of the K3 Amazon case. And the price?? Wow! If it were Prime eligible, I think I would order one just to see what it's like. I've already ordered the Belkin cover for my Touch, but this sure looks interesting as a variety.

Notice they are not showing the inside? From a side view, it looks like a match to the inside of the Javoedge (a slip in frame) which covers any skin you may want to use.

I noticed they don't show the inside, that's so annoying. I'm glad you noticed that, I don't like the ones with the slip-in frame for just that reason, they cover up the skin.

I looked at some in other colors and found a picture of the inside:  I like my skin to show also so I don't care for this type of cover. They are pretty though!

Yesterday, I ordered the Splash Kindle Touch cover in green. My account shows it will be shipping soon. I really like the look and color of the Amazon leather covers for the K3 and these look very similar.
Update (11/25): My cover just shipped. I plan to do a review on it and post pictures.

Has anyone found a flip cover for the Touch with the front cover flipping over to act as a stand?

I can make one that opens vertically as early as next week (will have a device by then)

I ordered that cover in black for Christmas for a relative and she loves it. She likes that the elastic holds the cover closed in her bag. I'd definitely recommend it.

The Kindle slides in very easily and the openings are in the right place to operate it. Good buy on Amazon.

I would want to know how easily the cover folds back upon itself.

Was just looking at the product page over on Amazon. In one of the pics, the cover is folded back and it looks quite flat, although a bit skewed as there seems to be a leather tuck-in flap on the left side to hold the Kindle in place. I don't need another cover (but I'm always curious and like to have a look-see). I have the Amazon non-lighted cover and I absolutely LOVE it. Never have any trouble with the cover opening but then I don't throw it in a big bag with lots of other things. Compartmentalized, I am!
