I was waiting for the Kindle to go flying out of his hands into the ocean as he was waving it about. I think he should have been using an H2O so if the Reader did go flying into the water, at least it would still work.

But to be honest, it really is bad practice for Amazon to show a Kindle like that without a cover. That just says to people that it is OK to use a Kindle without a cover.

We recently had a thread here on MR where the naked Reader slipped off a night table and broke. So for those getting a $200 Voyage, a cover is not that much of an investment to keep it safe.
