The entire purpose, for me, is to be able to read a book, period. Often, on vacation, I'm not near a WiFi connection. My K3 is not 3G enabled, either, because I don't need it under my current usage conditions. If Google is telling me I NEED a 3G to be able to access their content, I'm gone. More fees, less control, constant battery drain from online connection. Now with publishers setting retail prices (we used to call that price-fixing and the FTC in the U.S. calls that illegal), what is the advantage of giving up 'ownership' of the book at the same price? I must be missing something here ....
