Review: Clever design, decent protection and allows full functionality of the device

I love the clever "origami" design of this case - the front cover can be folded completely back or easily positioned into a stand that holds the kindle upright vertically or horizontally.  The kindle snaps into the hard plastic shell very easily and is held securely in place with magnets.  You have full functionality of the device - power button, volume control, charging port and headphone jack are all easily accessible.  The device "wakes" when you flip the cover open and the device transitions to sleep mode when the cover is closed.  One very slight drawback is that the sound is slightly muffled due to the way the speakers are covered.  Since I always use headphones this isn't a concern for me, but it's something to consider if you generally don't use them.Bottom Line:  Sleek, low profile design that offers a fair amount of protection without sacrificing functionality.  I consider it a good value at around the $45 mark.  Recommended.
