My point, too. Pointing out that some things could be even better than they are, isn't the same as saying it's bad as it is. It's a wish to improve on things rather than accepting status quo.

All of this will make the device larger for the same screen size, so perhaps Amazon should offer an extra version of the kindle for those of us who don't mind a little more bulk if it allows more comfort and convenience.

it sounds a lot like the Kindle 2. I've not used my new K3 enough to give it a chance to get used to the difference yet, but so far I find it slightly more difficult to hold because it's smaller - and I keep pressing the buttons accidentally much more often than I used to.
