They still didn't fix the most pressing needs.
1.) replaceable battery.
2.) removable card slot.
3.) folders.
1. - I just had one of my hanlin readers battery die a week ago. It uses a user removable nokia standard form battery. Googled battery stores, found one 30 minutes away drive time. Hopped into car, bought battery, installed new battery, and was charging in 1 hr 15 min. Try doing that with any device with a non-replaceable battery.
2. If you have a dead battery, or otherwise a dead machine, how do you get your books off of it? With a removeable chip, you just pop out your chip and send the device in. No problem.
3. Folders - I keep a 1000+ books on my reader. Collections aren't enough for me, I want folders...
Even if you treat it as a disposable, shifting libraries from one machine to another without a removable chip becomes a pain...
