I'm sure there are those that aren't but it's a bit of an assumption to make that the main appeal of the wireless is due to fear and incompetence.
The Kindle is a better choice for those who often travel and are away from their home or who are intimidated by the process of plugging a reader in and syncing (I know plenty of people to whom that would apply). It's also far better for those who want to read across multiple devices (smartphone, reader, PC). If you're going to claim that wireless is a huge benefit because it lets you buy a book in your garden instead of having to walk all the way to your study to plug the thing in, then I'm just going to laugh.
