I submit this would be a deal breaker for the majority of users.

Well, we all obviously have different feelings about that. In the year that I owned my Sony Reader, I didn't buy a single book from the Sony Store, so it would be irrelevent to me whether or not it survived - I prefer to either create my own books, or convert commercial eBooks from LIT format.
Repair was never an option for those of us who live outside the US, so there's nothing lost there.
