Kindle Slip Covers: Looking for Recommendations

[boundbooks]

I'm looking for recommendations for one of those Kindle slip-covers/cover-thingies. I'm leaning towards purchasing one, since I don't want to damage the screen of my Kindle while I transport it, but I'd love to hear some feedback or suggestions or reviews from other Kindle owners before I plunk down cash.

I'm not looking for one of those Kindle covers that has a light in it. I'm really looking more for something I can shove into a purse or backpack and not worry about the Kindle being damaged. For it to look nice would be a great bonus. I'd prefer to buy something that's made in the USA (or at least not China) or handmade, but I'm open to general suggestions.

Has anyone had any good experiences with these things? Bad experiences? Suggested companies? Companies to stay away from? Must-see Etsy stores?

edit - I have a Kindle version 3. :)

Just beware your Kindle can break even in a cover, mine did even though I never dropped it.

Ouch, I'm sorry to hear that!

Is there some kind of equivalent of the Red Ring of Death for Kindles that I should know about?

No, there's either a working Kindle or there isn't. No diagnostic tools are included.
