1. I HATE somebody to "recommend" me what I have to buy! Period!
2. What I hate MORE is to display that CRAP on my home screen!
3. What I hate EVEN MORE is to pretend to do it for my own good, but with MY MONEY!
4. If some stupid, aggressive marketing junkie think that in such a way will FORCE ME TO BUY any piece of "Featured" CRAP - he's very badly mistaken!
5. DO NOT LOSE YOUR ONLY ADVANTAGE over the other eReaders - the absolute lack of aggressive marketing on eBooks!

You know why?
Because if we, yours (still loyal?) customer wanted the crap above - we'd buy iPad...
1. 2. 3. 4. 5 .= SHORTLIST!

And really how often do you take time to actually look at your home screen? I only usually look at it once a day if I use "Sleep Mode", and that once or twice is only for the second it takes me to press the cover on my book.
