What Poppaea said. Also, epub IS a dealbreaker for me. (Yes, I know. I don't need to be told that Kindle can read epub once....)

I'm always surprised and a little amused at how defensive people can be about their devices. Makes no sense. We are not the enemy. Let's save our spleen for the Agency and DRM issues.

There is no perfect device, especially when individuals themselves have differing needs at different times. Most choices involve a trade-off.
