I have two questions for those who have had the cover for a while;
1) I've seen a lot of videos/pictures of readers inverting the left side of the cover and reading normally. I tried this and, after I turned it back again, I noticed some foldings down the spine. Is this "healthy" for the cover?”

It doesn't seem to do it any harm, and I fold mine back, then hold it in place with the elastic strap.

Thanks.”

The light only comes on when it is fully extended (try it - you'll see. I actually thought mine was broken once but it turned out there was maybe another couple of millimetres I needed to pull out) but there may still be a tiny drain on the battery. If there is any drain it isn't significant, and I've certainly not noticed it at all. Put it this way - I've had my Kindle since January or February I think, a leather lighted cover on it all the time, and I think I've had to charge it three times. Granted I often go days or weeks without using it, but it is always left on "sleep" with a screen saver showing.




Reading about it on this thread has really got me enthused.
