Review: Great Kindle Fire Case, though don't go with Fuchsia

This is a simple and elegant leather case that manages to be both very sturdy and lightweight. The design is to the point: to fit snuggly around your Kindle Fire and protect it from damage, while being as unobtrusive as possible. To prevent heat built up, there are two slots - one at the top and one at the bottom - that allow air flow. It allegedly can be used as a stand, but frankly I haven't tested this. I always prefer to hold a tablet or Kindle in my hands. But the front cover of the case flips around and stays out of the way. I like that it gives your Kindle Fire some backbone. My major problem with the Kindle - though this applies to any tablet - is that on its own, it isn't stiff enough to avoid damage by bending.I can heartily recommend this case, though I would urge people to consider another color. There is nothing subtle about Fuchsia. What was I thinking! Other colors were available, but I had to go with Fuchsia? In short, love the case and its design; am not so hot on the color. Instead, I recommend a nice gray, blue, or black.
