I like that feature enough that it's one of the reasons I've avoided buying a Kindle Paperwhite, and I am considering the Kobo Glo/Aura instead (since Sony is apparently loathe to revisit the glowing e-Ink arena).
I agree--neat feature. I like artwork and when I'm reviewing a book, I like to be able to see the cover with the full title and the author name. When I review a Kindle book I almost always have to turn the thing on, go back to the book, find the details...and I usually just look it up on Amazon instead of all that. It would be handy for a lot of reasons to be able to see the cover.
