Image Gallery: M-Edge Prodigy and Platform Jacket cases for the Amazon Kindle 2

    The Amazon Kindle 2 is now available, however no case ships with the device like what Amazon provided with the Kindle 1. You therefore need to buy a case through Amazon or another 3rd party. M-Edge creates some of the best Kindle cases, that also work with their lighting solution to protect your Kindle and make it quite fashionable.

    The Kindle 2 fits nicely in the Prodigy case in my hand. The case does add some bulk and thickness, but it also does a good job of protecting your Kindle 2. The front cover is reinforced to protect the display and front of the Kindle.

    A leather black strap starts from the back and wraps around to the front to secure the Kindle in the case. Here you can also see the detail of the quality stitching of the case.

    The leather strap inserts into an opening across the front of the case approximately 3 inches so it securely holds the case shut.

    The upper part is rigid so it provides good protection for your Kindle 2. There are also a couple of slim pockets, including one that runs the entire length of the top.

    The Platform Jacket can be used to stand on its own in case you want to experience a hands-free reading scenario. The flap on the bottom can actually be reinserted into the opening to hold the top flap adjacent to the lower portion holding the Kindle 2.
