The thing is that some publishers (see oreilly) already offer books in multiple DRM free formats, but they can't offer it through amazon store. I could buy them directly from the publisher (which I'm going to do anyway), but as I have direct access to amazon store through my device I would expect to get it from there. Besides amazon has great features like public notes, highlights, social networks, archive etc.. which I'd love to use as well.

For reading ebooks currently the best is e-ink - you can't compare it to tablets using TFT or other display technologies and designed for other purposes.
