Sleeve for Portenzo Book Case - Nexus 7 Accessories

as weird a request as this is going to seem, please humour me!
My Portenzo Book Case arrived today and it is lovely. I am very happy with it.
What I would like is a sleeve for when it is in my bag with things that might scratch it.
I am thinking a neoprene type of sleeve for a few pounds. I live in the UK so something I can get here would be most appreciated.
Anyone have any ideas of sleeves they know will fit?
Thanks

Bekonnekt Sleeve

Yesterday my bekonnekt sleeve arrived. I'd like to share some pics with you.
It fits my tab perfectly.
Ask if you have any questions.

It's my protection case, but now I waiting for my Zenus B&O ;-)
Yeah, but i dont like those cases in book style. I just need a sleeve and a silicon case for outdoor use.

[Q] Anyone tried the silicone cases?

It looks like the silicone cases are now available at B&N.com.
Does anyone have one of these? How is it? Specifically, how "tight" does it fit?
I've had silicone cases for other devices that were a little loose and it was really annoying...
thanks
I have the black/dark gray one. It fits pretty snug around the whole unit. I would recommend it until otterbox comes out.
I have the blue one and it fits great.
Yeah I got the black one and its awesome.
I have one and not a fan. I hate silicon cases but can't find anything else that's not so bulky. The fit is good but mine bubbles around the bezel a little.
Just got my storm color silicone case and over all it is great. I prefer TPU cases myself but this is all that is being offerd right now. Fit is pretty tight but it bubbles on the side edge which is typical with silicone cases.I guess it is better than nothing.

I would have said this word for word. Been searching eBay for a TPU regularly.

Me too. I love tpu cases... hopefully one comes out soon.
Here's another vote for the silicon case. It is lightweight and snug, has a nicely 'grippy' texture, and hides the slight creakiness of the NC's casing.
Due to that grippy nature, it only reluctantly slides into the soft recesses of my timbuk2 case, though.
TPU does sound like interesting stuff, judging from this review of a $5 HTC Ego TPU case and the wikipedia page on thermoplastic polyurethanes.
Any updates on these silicon skins? I want something lighter than a case.
I got this one.
I love the grippy-ness, and no longer having to worry about the nook sliding around in the car or off the couch, or having to worry about scuffing it up.
Overall it's a pretty decent fit; the opening on the bottom edge of the screen isn't perfect, but it's not bad, and certainly not enough to remove it or look for something else.
Oh, and it smelled like complete and utter azz for the first day or so, but the smell has completely dissipated since then.
Edit: finally got around to adding a bit of double-sided tape around the inside lip of the silicone cover... now it's a nice, tight, perfect fit. =)
I got that one as well. I love it. It did smell pretty damn bad the first day
Got the Storm one from B&N and love it. Just what I needed. Had the book style and like this one much better. Very convenient.
I have a blue one, just got it last week. I like it a lot and for all the reasons listed- it doesn't slide around, I can hold it in my hand without fear of dropping it, it is snug, it looks nice
They told me at the store that the NC + the silicone case would not fit in a case/cover/book. So I bought a neoprene case. I really like the combination. It fits snuggly inside the neoprene case with the silicone cover on.
I haven't found the *perfect* cover/book for - I've tried several and just can not decide. Until I find something, I like the combo I have now. I realize I might have to take the silicone case off in order for th NC to fit in a regular case, but I don't mind having a few accessories around that serve different purposes.
i too have a B&N black silicone case and love it. Fits perfectly (with the usual slight rising along the screen edges). Bought the neoprene ($20 one) case for it but returned it because i felt like it was too tight and sometimes it pulled on the silicone sleeve. Instead, i went over to best buy and purchased their multi-purpose neoprene case. The dimensions are slightly bigger than the B&N case so it fits perfectly with a good amount of snugg-ness/tightness and there is room to add a microfiber cloth in there too. picked it up for $20 also. It is from Rocketfish and i am very happy with it!

I'm rocking this same combo (B&N black silicone case and Rocketfish universal neoprene sleeve) and absolutely love it.
I would highly recommend these two accessories.

Yes!! I looked forever for a good cheap neoprene case and finally found the rockfish one 4 days ago. Im still hoping to go even cheaper through amazon but im so scared that the ones online wont fit with the silicone case. So far, i am loving it!

What's the product# or model# (or dimensions?) for that neoprene rocketfish sleeve one everyone's raving about? Or if someone has a link, that would be even better.
I'm interested in getting one, but need to make sure I get the right one online.
Thanks.

Nook case and Belkin stand that works

After hunting around for 2 weeks for something that looks good and works as a stand and cover here is what i found
The stand came from the Apple IPad section but works great with the Elocity A7. The cover is a Nook magnetic cover that gives you access to all ports.
Please excuse the messy desk and phone pictures!
I used the 3M sticky pads on the back to hold it to the Nook Case.
Nice work. Looks good! I have a elocity case from case kings on the way. Ill update everyone on that!
eLocity case
I am wonder were to buy the case for my A7. I can't seem to find one here in town.
eLocity case
I am wondering were you bought yours at? I can't seem to find it.
Case from Amazon.com
I purchased a leather case from amazon.com that does not work well at al. It comes up as a compatible case but the flaps to hold it in on one side to not completely cover it.
its called Leather Case with Pockets for eBook eReaders
sucks!
I bought the case from Best Buy and the Stand from Frys
Has anyone heard if Elocity /Steam is going to sell any accessory for there products??

Ideas for a case/protection

I recently bough a Nook Color and am trying to see what case I want to buy. Does anyone know if there is just a simple Silicone Cover that also has a kickstand similar to the EVO phones?
I would like to get something slim so that the device still fits in my pocket but I also want it to stand both portrait and landscape mode.
Please let me know if there is anything you might recommend.
Thanks
I couldn't decide what case to buy so just impulse bought this case on Ebay.
"PDair Black Genuine Leather VX1 Case for Nook Color"
I would love to give you a link, but the forum prevents me at the moment until I have posted 10 messages.
It hasn't arrived yet, so I can't comment on its quality. I chose it over the others as it looked okay and would not be bulky. However, obviously it gives no protection when the device is in use.
I myself am a huge fan of holster type cases. i have the franklin sleeve from barnes and noble and LOVE IT, cant post links yet google "barnes and noble franklin sleeve" and it will be your first hit
Check Amazon
They have a lot of different ones there. Check this one out. Seems like a pretty good one.

Best buy has a soft cloth style case. Its perfect. By the ereaders. Also my buddy gave me the idea of cutting the ipad screen cover and trimming it to fit the nook screen. You can make two!!!!
Silicone Skin for Nook Color
Kick Stand
These are all nice suggestions. Thank you. I am still trying to find a case with a kick stand.

Just bought a body shell but I still need a case.

I just ordered a Trident Aegis Case but I'm pretty sure that I'll feel unsafe walking around with the Nook in that case when it's not in use. Can anyone recommend a case that I can use to hide the Nook while I have the Aegis case on? I'm looking for something inconspicuous like this, but I'm not sure if it will fit.
I use this Belkin neoprene case with my NC and Trident case. Tight fit, but good protection and not flashy.

Thanks, I saw an earlier post talking about that case but I prefer something that can open like a book. If I can't find one maybe I'll go with that.

I got this one off of fleabay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300552863961
It doesn't have a stand, but it works great and was only $13. Plus it was one of the few covers I found that had holes in the back for the speaker.
I bought the Roo Porfolio case at Overstock dot Com and I'm pretty happy with it.

I like this case to, but will vit fit with the Agesis body cover on?
I just picked up this case this week. Very impressed with it for the price. The stand works well and it isn't flashy. Feels good in the hand too. I can't post links yet, but I got it on Amazon:
CrazyOnDigital Folio Black Leather Case
Ended up buying one of these. I'll report on the quality and how/if it fits with the Aegis on.
Edit - Just got this case and it fits perfectly! I even have space for additional cards and screen wipes. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a holder while having the Aegis on.
