I have no problems with the device itself (apart from its sticky power button) and thank God it allows you to side load ebooks - other wise it'd be consigned to eBay. The eInk "Pearl" display is fab (I had a Sony PRS-505 before with the previous eInk generation screen - no contest!) and it's much more snappy than the Sony was. For the money, the hardware is good.
The Kindle's other saving grace is Calibre. I could go on for hours about this program, but I suspect most people have it and know what I mean. If you don't, Google is your friend!

Not me I love the Kindle Store. I get free books from various publishers and now they have daily deals and discounted agency books. I've been buying more. I can return a book no questions asks in 7 days for a full refund if I decide I don't want it. You can't get that from any other ebook store.
