The *biggest* limitation for me is the inability to read public library books on my Kindle.

More general utility would be nice, but I doubt that ePub and especially a different DRM scheme are probably not the direction Amazon is willing to go.

However, I would love to see an interface built with Overdrive.com where the library books could be converted/delivered in some fashion to a Kindle.

Kindle is great if your use pattern is buying new books. If a significant pattern includes the public library, then the Kindle is a very poor fit.

I would recommend Kindle to more people IF it could read the majority of the Overdrive.com public library books.
