Like Kindle's 'mature' MP3 player that won't even let you select the track you want to listen to as background music while reading?
Or if you load an audio book converted to a single 80 minute MP3, kindle will not only NOT save your place, but will force you to hit several keys just to jump forward 30 seconds, so you need to set there hitting keys hundreds of times trying to find your place (on a sony or the original nook, you can just drag the position bar to the correct spot in a second or two).
And the Kindles use of stupid MS DOS style ALT-KEY this and ALT-KEY that makes it a 'mature' software design ONLY BY 1980's standars.
So I guess that if by 'mature' you mean 'old and feeble', I would agree with you, but if you meant 'mature' as in 'sophisticated and capable', sorry, Kindles half baked 'experimental' features alone make that an oxymoron.
