I see my K3 solely as my book, and I use it for reading. I get a strange comfort from thinking of my K3 in this very specific way. I like the fact that when I pick up my K3 it means I am going to read, nothing else.
Sit me in front of my MacBook, and I am skipping all over the place, never settled. In fact, although I sometimes use my MacBook to control my music server, once I have selected the music to play I have to put the MacBook out of arm's reach to stop me tinkering away at something instead of concentrating on the music I have chosen to listen to.
You may be correct that I miss all the goodies available from 3g, but I think I rather like it that way.

i think the kindle lets you read and read only like you say. i get cravings for information from the internet while reading. the 3g of the kindle gets me through when i am away from an internet connection. i think that's as simple as i've worded it.
perhaps my mindframe is different from some of you.
i just can't help but think having it there when the moment arises is better than not having it.
you'd be surprised how informed i can become just from quick kindle web browsing.
