I finally removed the back plastic film and found out that this baby is a finger print magnet. Any suggestions for an inexpensive case? There are several 'generic' 7" cases on ebay & amazon, but I figured I'd check to see which one would allow access to buttons & such. I appreciate any suggestions.
Might have a better option, buyspys dot com have the M-Edge Trip, Executive and Latitude for Nook Gen 1 for $3 shipped. Bought an Executive for mine. Fits fine and a quality case for $3. Nook first gen cases in general will fit, but you have to look where the straps to hold the tablet are located:
davegar: Hey thanks for referring me to buyspys.com. The cases came in yesterday and they were as advertised. Brand new, sealed, and a good fit for the CMP741e. It is on the large side but looks pretty professional. I would recommend it (especially for the price) to anyone looking for a good protective case.
