But I agree that the "Kindle reader only" people will increase the library user base.

As for the launch day, I predict that wait times will quadruple initially and then eventually tail off as people stop using libraries and go back to buying. The library fanatics are already, imho, using the libraries, and therefore the new influx will be casual users that will tail off over time. That's my Nostradamus prediction.
I mentioned "Kindle app" as a wild card because it does indicate that you don't have to own an actual Kindle to use the program. I don't use any apps except occasionally the K4PC app and more rarely the Nook & Sony PC apps.
