Well, there are other things a USB host port might be handy for, like GPS, or [theoretically] being able to u-boot from a separate mass-storage device. But I can also imagine someone using their Kindle with a folding keyboard for blogging or email while traveling.

I actually found some mini-PCIe GPS cards on ebay---maybe cheap enough to try out, if I can find a mini-PCIe connector to solder on.

All this speculating and I'm still waiting for my Kindle to arrive!
