When I started this site, the Kindle had just come out and there were few choices for the consumer who wanted a nice case. Now the market has flipped: there are too many cases, and it’s hard to know which ones are decent. Oh, and the revised case that Amazon sells is actually really nice (as opposed to the janky version that came with Kindle 1 models).
The models I’ve posted here are the ones I think are the most interesting and useful for your Kindle, or ones that I’ve read multiple good reviews about online.
If you have a case you really love, please let me know and I’ll see about adding it to the list.

I use the Waterfield sleeve and travel case and love both of them. I’m not sure what you mean when you say *yawn*…. Were you hoping for paisley? They’re classic black, sleek and built *incredibly* well. I couldn’t be more satisfied.
M-edge has a new line of covers that you can use with their new book light the e-Luminator.
Periscope has a new Lighted Folio for Kindle.
Strangedog has a very well made Kindle covers in great colors and styles.
Oberon Design is coming out with beautiful leather covers.
And Decalgirl has a great line of colorful skins for your Kindle.
Almost an embarrassment of riches!
@MonaLS: Thanks for the heads up on everything! I knew about a couple of those, but had no idea about the rest. I’ve added more info about each of them to the Cases section.
Just bought the Oberon “Tree Of Life” for my Kindle w/o the leather corners & also the Tree Of Life journal to accompany it,what a beautiful piece of craftmamship
shucks, meant to say WITH the leather corners no velcrow

The site also has a very unique case for K2.
thanks for aggregating all this info! i lost my case this weekend while traveling on a bus in the rural philippines and was wondering if a waterproof case exists…
Uff, I’m not happy with no case or skin… it should be cool, thin, black and protective (it should cover all but the buttons and the screen. A half-way between a decalgirl all-black skin and this http://www.amazon.com/OCTO-Splash-Display-Latest-Generation/dp/B002QDBU4O/ .
