Yes, skipping over essential areas like Introductions and Quotes is one of the things that annoys me about this 'skipping the cover' business.

I'm a visual person and book covers help me identify a title. It gets annoying when I have to do an extra 4 button presses each time I open a book. It's worse when I try browsing my collections (all those button presses!)

I wish the Kindle had an option to show book covers in lists, like in the Kindle Store. (The Nook has that feature, if I'm not mistaken). I would certainly look for this kind of feature on my next ereader purchase.
