I really don't get the purpose of this skin. The back and sides of the Kindle PaperWhite are already rubberized. This skin isn't so thick that  it feels like it adds all that much protection to the back and sides of the Kindle PaperWhite and the most fragile part of the Kindle, the screen, is left completely unprotected.This Marware skin is also not that much more grippy than the back of the Kindle. I tested the PaperWhite with and without this skin in place and there really wasn't that much of a difference with the amount of grip necessary to keep the Kindle from slipping from my hand.So... You have a skin that doesn't protect the part of the Kindle Paperwhite that's most in need of protection, the screen. Doesn't add a lot of protection to the back and sides of the device and isn't that much better for holding the Kindle.About the only good part of this skin is the power button cover of the Skin makes turning the Kindle PaperWhite on and off much easier. I'd rather use my Amazon brand Kindle PaperWhite cover with the magnetic clasp that turns the Kindle on and off simply by opening and closing the cover.
