Does the cover stay open?
One of the most annoying things about normal books, especially paperbacks is that you have to constantly hold them open. If you set them down on the counter, or try to place them on a reading stand (e.g., on an exercise bike or elliptical), you lose your page.
It may sound funny but it's one thing that draws me to the idea of an eReader is being able to go hands free more easily.

The cover has flexibility to it so you can bend it
all the way back behind the reader while holding it.
Sometimes I've placed my reader down and left the cover
open (I try not to do that, though!) while going into another
room.
