I think however, that the thumbnails of the covers wouldn't come out well anyway. It's just an e-ink screen. The Kindle's purpose is just to read and really, nothing else. It renders simple pictures/graphs just fine but nothing much else. I must admit, I do read manga on my kindle and it renders beautifully, but it's much bigger than a thumbnail.
I have to disagree, I'm afraid. The Bookeen Cybook devices use a thumbnail cover image as their primary library interface, and it works very well indeed. The new Sony devices also use cover images. There's no problem at all in using an eInk screen for this purpose.
