Admittedly, some percentage will not wish to take the extra step of converting with Calibre. Some are going to be offended just by having to sideload it. I never get that, since sooner or later, you need to hook a cord to a device to charge it. I don't get why it is so onerous to some folks to use the same cord to hook it to a computer and transfer a file or two once in a while.
Honestly though, I don't know why they don't just offer it in both formats. But who knows, maybe by October, Kindle will be supporting ePub. Things can change fast in our world.

A lot won't know they can convert. Just because Calibre is out there and free, does not mean everyone will know about it to even look for it. But I do have to say that ePub > Mobipocket is a lot better then the opposite.
