At first i couldn't believe it, tought it to be a broken device or something, but when i re-registered, everything worked again. Are they crazy??

Ok, they shipped my kindle with a pre-installed registration to my amazon account (including my credit card). So if the shipment is lost and someone grabs my device she can easily buy some fine books before I notice. Ok, UPS is reliable and all, probably never happened. But what if I just lose my kindle? What then? And don't say that i can set a password. I really don't want to enter a PIN before i can read.

Maybe I'm biased because I'm teaching Internet Security at the University, but seriously, does noone have a problem with that??
Someone else probably already answered or said this, but if you are at all worried, just check the box that says it is a gift. Then it isn't pre-registered. You can register it to yourself when it arrives.
