Sony Electronic Book Leather Cover (Black) Reviews
It was ok but looked kind of tacky too "pink". maybe you can find it on eBay. I noticed over on the Sony eReader site, they were selling a Dooney Bourke cover for awhile. It is not sewn properly and the front it buckled. I didn't like the cheap plastic cover that came with the PRS-505. The inside is supposed to look like leather suede but it is obvious that it is just a cheap microfiber. I prefer leather. As another reviewer has observed, it is not padded while the non-padded cover has "cleaner" lines, it is not as satisfying from a tactile perspective.
While the leather cover is still nicer than the one included with the reader, it is not worth $40.00 and should be much nicer given the expense of the e-Reader. So I bought the pink. However, they said that is no longer available. I haven't seen it in person but figure it has to be better than this one. So I bought the black.
This one is black leather with only a slightly softer feel than the original hard tan cover. Is it worth the money. I don't think so. but I really needed it. I thought this was a third party offering but it's not. If I had realized it was made by Sony, I wouldn't have bought it - based on the crappy tan colored cover that came with my PRS-505.
so I'll keep it only because I hated the tan cover.:-). The inside is lined with a soft felt material and there's a small pocket in the back which is big enough to maybe hold a passport - that's all. But this cover is still NOT padded.
For a slightly better version of an item that u'll be getting with the reader itself, the price is not justified. Even though I have thought that I had read a lot of reviews about the Reader I thought that it would come with no cover at all. Im not giving more than 3 stars to this item, as one, who buys the reader doesn't really need this cover to start with and also because of the fact that you can fold it back. There is a little pack on the back and the inside is made of some nice material (felt if I am not mistaken) and it has some magnets on the corners, so that it clings more to the reader when closed, but my biggest grief with it is that you can't really clap it back, like you would do with the cover of a magazine or a thin book. If you lost or damaged your cover, then this one will serve you well. It turns out that the reader gets shipped with a cover though. This is why I purchased this cover. This cover is a little better than the one that was shipped with the reader.
The inside is soft hide so it doesent damage the reader. This is a very nice cover, it looks like a book and isint as cheap/gaudy as the case that comes with the PRS-505. The pockets in the back are nice as well.
