Cheap neoprene cases on ebay

Just after I'd ordered my Kindle last week, I went hunting for a case/pouch/cover for it. Boy oh boy, there are literally hundreds of Kindle cases available to buy on the internet. As I bought the 3G Kindle, finance's were a little strained, so I wanted something cheap.

I stumbled onto an ebay seller who does neoprene pouches (or socks) in all kinds of designs. Just thought I'd share the link (no affilliation whatsoever)

So which one did I buy? The black/white union jack one Thumbs Up

cheers,

Pete

RE: Cheap neoprene cases on ebay

I bought a sock too and they are fine for around the house and protecting from dust. Just back from abroad I found that a sock just isnt enough protection for the treatment a Kindle can get, in and out of rucksacks and bags, airline seat pockets and other travel hazards. So before the next holiday abroad I will certainly be using something more substantial.

Was it knitted or neoprene? I have dropped mine already ... and it bounced!

I do have my eye on some more expensive ones actually, but they'll do for birthday idea's Wink
