Default Any hard/soft case for eslick?

E ink reader is well known for its fragile screen, do Foxit plan to provide any hard case or soft cover for eslick?

Somebody bought the Nuut soft cover NC-601B which fit STAReBOOK perfectly, so it fit eslick too.

But I didn't find any place to buy it from America. Can foxit find some vendor to provide hard case or soft cover? Thanks!

For anyone feeling crafty, I made myself a case. The Rolodex 72 business card holder fits the Eslick perfectly and is only around 17 bucks. It's a padded leather trifold case. The case fits snugly around the Eslick, so even though its open on the top and bottom, vigorous shaking was unable to make the reader even slip a little.
To make sure that the Eslick wouldn't fall out once the trifold was opened, I simply stitched together a flannel screen protector, attached it to some elastic, and stitched the elastic into the trifold to keep it even more secure. I'll post pictures once my camera is up and running if anyone is interested.

Oh, I got the case at Staples - they had pink and black. Unfortunately for any manly-men out there, the pink fits the case a little more securely than the black.

posted this elsewhere, but I did go to office depot and found a small zippered pad holder for $12 USD which for me works quite well.

I think this kindle2 sleeve is good:

If Foxit can provide a similar sleeve, which will be great. This sleeve is slim and rigid, can better protect the screen than leather cover.

It's compatible, just expensive.
