First Kindle Cases: So Not Hot Right Now

The first Kindle Cases by WaterField have been unveiled and, well, they aren't the functional/fabulous sleeves I was hoping for. They remind me of the boring laptop bags that took the world by storm when they first came out — plain black, zero oomph factor. Although if you're desperately in need of something to protect your Kindle from scratches and damage, these cases will definitely do the trick. According to Engadget, these cases will be available starting Feb. 12 and will cost $27 for the slip, $39 for the sleeve case, and $49 for the travel case. Let's just hope these are the first of many new cases to come!
