I like it a lot. It has a finely stippled texture a bit like leather, but I doubt it would fool anyone into thinking it's leather (then again, I prefer the look of honest plastic over fake leather).

The origami feature is great for hands-free reading while eating. I'm a little worried that constant folding will fatigue the joints, but time will tell.

My biggest complaint is that it doesn't work well with the new placement of the power button on the Voyage. Let's say I have the cover folded back while reading and then set aside the Voyage for a few minutes. The Voyage goes into sleep mode, and I have to pry the cover off the back of the Voyage to get at the power button. A minor annoyance, but one they could have avoided by keeping the Paperwhite's placement of the power button.
