The thing that makes me not want a Kindle is that you can lose the books, I can have Epub readers that can be registered to one account and share books across them. Once they are on my computer they can not be removed by the book store. I do remove the DRM partly because I have nearly lost books when I have got a new reader using mobi pocket. Also windows Vista won't recognize my Cybook. Removing DRM means I can read them in any format, and it takes second to put them on the SD card.
I don't need Amazon for books Waterstones and WHsmiths have a large collection and I can use Liverpool library, and the price of the books I read are not cheaper on Amazon.
