I am troubled as to why is there a need to add an MP3 or web browser on the kindle. Mobile phones have gone down that slippery slope of trying to be your all-in-one-only-thing-you'll-ever-need-gadget.
If I want to listen to music I'll get out my music player and if I want to browse the web I'll look at my computer.
I really don't want a Jack-of-all-Trades machine. I love my master of one, Kindle.

Well, it's first and foremost a device for reading E-books, of course. That said, the browers has one very important funktion; to give access to Amazon's shop on the fly. Also, if you have the G3 model, and let's say that you're in a park, you could access Wiki.
I actually do find the mp3 playback usefull because of the build-in speakers. Headphones can be uncomfable at times, and the sound quality for soft music is surprisingly good considering how small they are. Also, it's more handy using only one device, even though its funktion as a mp3 player (without modifications) is very limited. If I want to listen to, let's say, a audiobook, I would use my Santa Clip instead.
Edit:
I type way too slow.
