Review of Amazon Kindle Leather Cover (Fits 6" Display, Latest Generation Kindle)

My Kindle 2 and cover arrived today.

The cover clips on easily and securely.The Kindle has two small slots on the left side.Two clips on the cover latch into these slots.You can slide the top clip down to unlatch and release the Kindle.All the Kindle controls remain accessible with the cover on.(Unlike Kindle 1, the Kindle 2 on-off switch is on top.)It all seems well designed.

I bought the cover mostly to protect the Kindle when I'm traveling.And indeed, the cover front and back are both tough and well padded, with a soft felt lining, and look like they should provide good protection.The overall appearance is reasonably elegant.

The Kindle+cover total about 0.75" thickness.So the cover is roughly doubling the Kindle's natural 0.36" thickness.But since I want protective padding, this seems like a price I need to pay!

Overall this seems like an enormous improvement over the awkward Kindle 1 cover.
