It is a convenience for which I have paid my money. That's my whole point of my argument. It is a nice device that is artificially limited to discourage its use with non-Amazon books.

Thanks Amazon for <user>@free.kindle.com address but for pdf and mobi files it is unnecessary. It only adds to delay and file size limitations. It only allows Amazon to collect statistics of my reading habits.
