Review: Secure cover helps with grip.

I have a love/ambivalence (hate seemed too strong a word) relationship with this cover.  I just switched from my old kindle key board that was protected in a beautiful pink leather book style case with a built in light.  This cover is much more practical and utilitarian than my old cover.  I picked the purple color because it seemed cheery, but rendered in flexible plastic I feel like I am carrying around a toy or hand held gaming system.  Carrying would be the operative word here.  It seemed like my old kindle in the beautiful pink leather book style case was forever slipping out of my grip.  I have not dropped this one once.  The cover went on easily and stayed in place.  I will probably think nostalgic thoughts of my (I have to mention it just one more time) beautiful pink leather book style cover for a while, but this one is doing a better job of protecting my device.  I started out this posting with a 4 star rating but have changed it up to a 5 star.  This really is a good cover, especially for the price.  I wish it was a little more sophisticated, but as we all know, in the long run looks don't really matter.  It is substance that counts.
