That's the way I feel, too -- although I only have the cover, not the Kindle (yet). It's handsome yet sturdy, and the front cover bends nicely all the way around the back.
My only concern at this point is that the Kindle only fastens on its left side. The cover instructions include
the following warning:

When using your Kindle with the cover, be careful to open the front cover only. If you open the back cover and pull the cover away from the Kindle, that may cause the attachment hooks to bend and could result in cracking or other damage to the Kindle.

That's a little unsettling. I'll be carrying the K3 around in my backpack, and I don't want to walk (and read) in fear of damaging the thing. I'm going to wait and see how it works in practice. If it feels tenuous, I'm going to look into alternatives, including the forthcoming
Oberon covers, which attach more securely.
