I don't use a cover at all. I just have a neoprene sleeve when I need to transport it in my purse or backpack.

Agreed. I see no reason to another 6" e-ink reader at this point. All the hardware improvements I wanted are already available on the PW3 and PW4 (backlight, 300 ppi min pixel density, more storage for manga).
I also have a Kobo Libra H2O. I haven't been using that though since I accidentally clicked on yes when it asked to update and I haven't been able to re-patch it since.
By contrast, I've been able to completely disable OTA updates on the PW3 and PW4 with a simple toggle after jailbreaking and installing add-ons.
When the Libra was patched, I was pretty happy with it. The only reason I would want to replace it is if Kobo releases a similar device with more storage.
