I don't know what else there is to say about this. It functions and it is a cover. Overpriced? Well, $50 is a lot but it funcitons.

Was astonished when opened the shipping package to see how tacky it looks - it looks nothing like leather! About the only thing it does accomplish is it does protect the screen. Inasmuch as this Kindle DX is larger, it needs a friendlier carrying case to include a way for it to stay closed (zipper, velcro, strap/snap and a carrying handle or strap.
I regret not waiting for more choices to come available rather than purchasing it cause "you gotta have a cover".

This case does a good job of protecting the kindle. It uses clips and magnets to stay in place, and holds the kindle very securely. The front cover can be folded back over the rear of the unit, so the case can remain on for comfortable reading. My only two complaints about it are that it is expensive for what you get (it should have been included with the kindle), and that it is about as heavy as the kindle itself.

Considering the price, I really studied the reviews for this and other covers before making my purchase. Here are the features which helped me decide and which didn't disappoint:
It was simple to lock in place.
The invisible magnets keep the cover in place, keep it closed.
It folds back on itself nicely.
The felt backing on the inside cover is nice.
It looks and smells great.
Carry the Kindle with cover into a meeting and others think you're just carrying a notebook. Remember to hold a pen in your hand while you're reading so you don't give yourself away....

I bought my Kindle DX about 2 months ago. Because it was so expensive I wanted to protect it and bought this case.
I treated my Kindle like gold and kept it on a shelf near my bed, where I do most of my reading.
I noticed when I went to open the cover, that at times the cover would open backwards, i.e. the back cover would open exposing the back of the Kindle.
Both front and back covers work by some sort of magnet so if you hold the back cover with one hand and the front cover with the other and pull them apart, the same way you would normally open a book, you have a 50 50 chance of the back cover opening first.
I thought nothing of this until yesterday when I started to see cracks in the white plastic frame around the screen. The cracks occurred near the top of the left side of the Kindle, where the top metal hook from the case inserts into the Kindle. I was very upset, remembering how much I paid for the Kindle. I called customer service yesterday and they said, "no problem". "We will overnight a new Kindle and a new cover to you." Great customer service. Now today I am reading about the lawsuit against Amazon and this issue. And now I realize how the times that the Kindle started to open from the back cover must have been damaging the Kindle.
Folks, it's important to know how [...] I am about taking care of things. If I could have caused this kind of damage to the Kindle by opening the cover, it could happen to anyone. I would bet that most people are not nearly as careful with their Kindle as I am.
There is no reason that the back cover of this case should be allowed to open as easily as it does. It is a design defect and it will ruin your Kindle.
I still don't understand why they continue to sell this cover and why they are sending me a new one.
I can guarantee that I will not put this on my new Kindle when it arrives. No way.
The cover is great otherwise, but this huge flaw makes it terrible!
