Then, after 2 1/2 yrs, loading my k1 up with almost 900 books, and still barely scratching the surface of my 2 gb card, I realize, that for me, anyway, the new K3 3000 to 3500 book capacity will do me just fine, thank you..

Realize, I have only books, not music or audio loaded onto it...

and yes, its considerably lighter and thinner than the K1.

As for the battery, I found a utube video that shows just how easy it is to do myself....as for the warranty, after one year its gone anyway, so why bother sending it in? Its not brain surgery.
Oh, I am not saying that you really need to expand the memory... particularly not on the 4GB Kindle 3. At least not if you use your reader for ebooks and not audiobooks and/or music files. I merely was questioning the notion that the SD card reader was taken away to make the Kindle lighter and thinner.
