I tried finding a good case, but all of them are just rotten at this point. I even got the one with the integrated nightlight and it turned into literal dust in my hands.
At this point I am honestly considering making my own, out of some leather. It can't be that difficult, can it? :D
That is a way better idea than what I've had tumbling around. I was thinking about using that tape meant for the back of couches to fix rips and just adding a couple bands around the case with it.
I love when electronics are built well enough to sustain 15+ years of use and abuse.

I’m just thinking out loud but maybe a sleeve would be easier to DIY and then the reader would feel lighter in your hands without a case.
