I have the same one for my Kindle3 and I agree that's it great. I love it on the bus b/c I can read one-handed and not worry about dropping it if someone jostles me or the driver slams on his brakes.

Some of the reviews complained about the leather smell but I found no problem with mine and I've had it for 6 months. I feel that it's quite protected too when you have it closed up and in your bag.

Before settling on this one, I spent hours drooling over the pretty designs and sleeves you can find on Etsy, but decided not to go that route as I wasn't sure how sturdy the fabric sleeves would be.

The Oberron sleeves are gorgeous, but far out of my price range!
