Oh, Look! Amazon Kindle Cases & Skins

I asked for a Kindle for my birthday because it was only $20 more than the hard cover version of The Philosophy of Money by Georg Simmel, a 600+ page tome about the nature of exchange and society. Its a very engaging read in a convient format. Its great to be able to walk around the city with the entire book at my disposal and not be weighed down by the actual bulk of the paper copy.

If you’re on the fence about getting a Kindle, I can confidently say that its worth taking the plunge. Its substantial feeling in your hand and very intuitive to read, make notes and download new content that can be spread among your other devices for free. Reading on the experimental web-browser in e ink also allows you to experience how the founding fathers updated their Facebooks.

Lame jokes aside, here are a few attractive Kindle cover options to protect your device from the hazards of daily use. All recommendations are for the newest generation 6″ display.
