This case offers the best option for flexible, stable positioning (landscape or portrait orientation) for the Kindle Fire HD with an elegant pebbled leather appearance and cutouts for the dual Dolby speakers (so as not to muffle the sound). But keep in mind it is a bit bulkier/heavier than other rooCase options, such as the beautiful-looking 'Origami' style that's designed with faux leather.
Your Kindle Fire HD 7" slips into a pocket in this case to keep it safely enclosed. When the cover closes it puts the Fire HD into sleep mode. When you open the cover, the HD wakes up (but still must be swipe unlocked). There are cutouts in the enclosure that keep all vital connectors and controllers exposed and easy to access (mini USB for charging, HDMI, volume button, On/Off button, headphone jack, speakers, etc.).
The enclosure pocket attaches via velcro to an outer, stiff cover. It's that outer cover that has the built-in ridges that allow you to prop your Fire HD up at various angles in either a horizontal (landscape) or vertical (portrait) position. I personally like the variety & stability of angles that are conducive to either reading or typing on the tablet. There's a very soft fabric on the inside of the hardish outer shell, so there's no surface that could scratch the screen of your Fire HD.
I especially like the flexibility to remove and reposition that enclosure pocket due to what I consider a "flawed" programming design in the new Kindle Fire HDs that is, they don't allow auto-rotation of all supported apps. So for some apps you have to turn your Fire HD so that the apps aren't upside down. With many Fire HD cases that becomes a problem (at least to me!) because the binding of the case must be held to the right (with the camera cutout to the left). As someone who reads left to right and holds books with the binding to the left, that feels awkward to me. This particular case alleviates that problem. You can detach the enclosure portion and reposition it any way you like in the outer protective hard cover. This was not an issue in the 1st gen Fire's with them it was obvious what was right side up so developers' apps didn't have to build in the code to deal with the fact that Amazon (counter-intuitively for a predominantly American-based company with a largely US target market base) designed the Fire HD with the camera to be positioned to the left...
I use a ZAGG bluetooth wireless keyboard with my Fire HD and it sits very nicely on the front portion of this case when I have the tablet angled in the case either horizontally or vertically. To be clear, it is a separate keyboard. It doesn't fit within this case. But it is easy to position in front of the screen to eliminate hunt & peck typing. And stays put on that nice velvet-like material inside the rooCase cover.
Getting it out of the way, my only complaint is the I wished the device went into the case the opposite way so that the volume/power buttons were placed at the top BECAUSE this way you end up bumping the buttons when you prop up the device. Besides that, this is the BEST Kindle case out there. It may not be fashionable, but its functionality is top shelf. I can rotate my tablet every which way, and then velcro it into place. I also read in my bed, which makes most kindle cases topple overbut not this one. It keeps your kindle upright wherever you are.

I love the versatility of this case. It seems to be very well made the materials are of high quality. The only thing I don't like is the location of the stylus holder. If I position the Kindle Fire so that the power and volume controls are on the top where I like them, then the stylus holder is on the left side inside the book cover causing it not to close properly. It works out ok to have the stylus on the other side; it's just that the controls are on the bottom. That's really the only problem. Otherwise the case is just perfect!

This case is great! I can prop it up in either direction so I can watch movies and play games or read a book. The leather gives it an executive look and the stilus helps with choosing the correct item on the screen when you fingertip is too large. I like that you can remove it complete from the case also if you don't want to carry the entire case around.

I use this in my Canon digital camera. Works fine, no problems and 2GB size provides more picture storage than I could ever need.
