Question Should I get the origami-style case or the simple one-fold-style for my Forma?

When my Forma is travelling with me, it's currently in a felt sleeve big enough for a big fat hardcover book.

I'd like to get a form-fitting case. I think there are two basic choices:
1. The "origami" case, like the original Kobo SleepCover, or a third-party one. These origami cases can be folded so that the Forma can be set on a table hands-free.

2. A plain case that just opens and closes. Like this one from Amazon.


It was when I was in elementary school and middle school that I used a bookstand to keep my dead-tree books on my study table. That's a number of years ago. I say this just to point out that it's been many years since I have done handsfree reading. I've become used to reading books with my hands. I don't know how helpful it will be to have an origami style of a case for handsfree reading.

To those of you Forma users with a handsfree origami case, how do you like it? Do you do a lot of handsfree reading? In what situations do you do handsfree? In which situations do you hold your Forma in your hand(s)?

For those who have gone with Option 2 (i.e., the simple case), how do you like it? Are you happy with it? Do you wish you got a case that lets you do handsfree reading?
