Super cheesy and flimsy looking case. IMHO.

I'm hoping it will fit in my Nook Color case with 3 position Landscape stand. I'm pretty sure I can modify it to fit becuz I love that damn case and it cost me $35


Thanks for sharing though.

The Crazy On Digital case below via Amazon works great and looks sharp. It is for the Playbook, but fits the Fire perfectly.

Default Things to watch for in cases

One really important thing to be mindful of when buying a case is how close the case is to the home key popup button.

I have a Speck case I like except for one super annoying problem: the bottom of the holder is right on the edge of the screen so it makes it impossible to press the home popup key. You have to bend down the holder to make room for your finger. Granted the holder part is pretty thick, part of its function is to act as padding between the case and the cover.

Oh, and also make sure you can put the Fire in the case upside down because at least one app I tried doesn't properly rotate the screen so I have to put the Fire in upside down when using the case as a stand. I think a reverse opening case would actually be best but I've yet to see a "manga style" opening case.

I bought the PU case from ebay (as mentioned by the OP). I figured at $9 shipped it would just be an experiment.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/PU-Leather-F...ht_2692wt_1037

I have to say it's not too bad. It seems to fit well, and the stand seems to work OK in both positions. I only really wanted it to travel with on the plane, and it won't be a permanent case, but for the price it does it's job. It has a magnet catch to close it, which isn't very strong, but does the job. It is also quite a low form factor, so it doesn't bulk up the overall thickness of the Fire too much.

Frankly, I prefer the feel of the kindle outside of a case, and with it being rubberized and made of Gorilla glass, I'm not too worried about scratching/marking. I just wipe it down with a damp cloth every few days.
