I haven't used the wireless aspect of my Kindle all that often, and I still love the thing .... so I'm supposed to be unhappy why exactly??

Sorry that text limits her reading options. I know there are a lot of people out there who simply must have the big color pictures in order to be entertained by a book. I guess I'm just fond of actually reading books.

And, if the publishers would just get their butts off their comfy chairs and down to work, there might be a LOT of books that would be available for all the different e-readers.

Sorry .... but whoever wrote the article sounds a bit dense to me.
