What I don't like about them is that the devices feel cheaply made. They remind me of a Kobo in that fashion - they feel lower quality than the Sony, Nook, or Kindle and that's something that puts me off.

I like how cheaply made my Kindle3 feels, When I first got my Kindle3 I treated it with the utmost respect, but now I'll stick it in my jacket pocket with no compunctions concerning possible scratches. I also toss it around a bit more than I did at first, I'm treating it more like I would a paper book which is good.
I would pay a subscription fee, perhaps 50 dollars for a new Kindle every year, especially if it came with some books. Also I could donate old Kindles.
