Thanks for your very thoughtful reply!
I'm not going for Kindle-bashing, but am not someone who buys a lot books; I'm contented with a great public library system, including audio and e-books. For folks without such access, and who don't read nearly as much (fast) as I do, even the instant-buy makes sense. Those book samples are a terrific idea, I only became aware of them recently. Amazon has such a whopping e-selection that I'm not sure Sony could really match them?
The bottom line is that we here do have a different mindset.
