I like that on the Kindle they have the Push vs. Pull model. If your "online" and using the wireless you can go view any blog you want for free, but it does require some work on your part. If you want it PUSHED to you and available offline, for example while up in an airplane then you pay a fee. I think if they didn't have the browser and the free wireless then it would be far less attractive. I think this was a clever choice on their part but not everyone gets the concept because the PULL is "experimental" on the device so I suppose it's not like they can really market it that way until thats more "offical".
