I'm going to ask here among other Sony folks as we don't have that feature (quite yet, pending the 950): what's the big deal?

Do folks really need to buy a book away from their computer that much? Or is it really a gratification thing?
I can think of exactly one instance in my life where it would've been useful (in a location where I doubt it'd have been possible) to do so. Is it that someone finishes a book on their lunch hour, and then goes "Oh! Let me get another one (immediately)!"?

I understand the feature is nice, but I'm not getting why it's touted as "necessary"?
