Put simply, they are designed to read books. I'm not after an mp3, iPad, internet browser or radio... there are other gadgets for these. Keep it simple I reckon. A bit of fine tuning, maybe bigger processor as people have said they get bogged down if getting full, and maybe a bit more memory (though most, if not all, can store ebooks on PC if necessary). That's it for me.

Agreed. If Amazon does introduce a color tablet this fall, I hope they don't discontinue the eink line. I like the fact that my Kindle 2 is a one-trick pony. It does that trick very well and with a minimum of distractions.
