Agreed, I was annoyed that Amazon dropped the card slot from the K2, but I ended up taking the SD card out of my K1 when it got corrupted and never replaced it. I found that I don't actually miss the card, even on my K1. So, after several rants about it, I realized I don't mind that they got rid of the card slot.

And yes, it's actually a lot more bother to open up the back of the K1, get the card out, plug it into the computer, transfer files, plug it back into the K1, put the back cover back on, and put it back in its case, than it is just to plug in the USB cable.
