Thanks Ann. I'll probably try the test you suggested. I appreciate you're suggestions.

I believe the power button is accessible on the Amazon cover, but you don't really need it as it will wake/sleep automatically when you open/close the cover.
I don't recall seeing discounts on covers -- except maybe when the device itself is no longer available new.
If you want a less expensive -- and, in my opinion, superior -- cover, look at the Fintie styles. There's lots more variety and they're lighter and thinner. Unless you are really hard on a device, it should be plenty.
And if you don't ever plan to use the stand up feature -- well, it's a bug, in my opinion. The cover isn't rigid -- though still protective -- but I don't like that it flips over the top. When open or closed it will lie flat against the thing -- unless you set it to be a stand. It uses magnets so, really, it's not like it just randomly floppy. I actually like how the one for my Fire works -- but don't think it's right for a Kindle.
The Origami is of course very easy to take out, held in by magnets. It has the button access in the cover so no issues there.
I don't use it for a stand myself and I prefer flip top type covers as I like to be able to hold from each side. When its folded back, it snaps onto the back of the device totally flat with the magnets. So no flopping around. I like to put a finger in between the folded back cover to hold and its a bit more challenging because its not a firm solid flap because of the origami. But I figured it out after a while.
Overall I really like it. I also read without a cover at times so I can do both with this one.
Want a pink one? I sell it to you!
