My girlfriend and I have each granted a Kindle a few weeks ago. I myself have decided on a different sleeve, my girlfriend used the Gecko Case in black. The processing of the envelope has a high-quality impression from the very beginning, I myself was a bit skeptical because the Kindle is fixed only at the four corners in the shell - at my shell is also a part of the keyboard in the shell in it and can therefore really slipping a millimeter or accidentally drop out of the sheath. My doubts about the Gecko-shell, however, have not been confirmed, we have just come back from vacation and have been testing the Kindle with both cases extensively. The cover not only looks still like new (the Gecko is a fun detail, it is very carefully worked into the leather), but the Kindle is also located here as well "bomb-proof" as in my own bag. Of us so there is a strong buy recommendation :-)
