Given the title of this thread, though, I can understand the OP's wishes, because they are the same as mine.

I love that I have not had to "register" or have some third party babysit which books I own. My books are my books and I just want to stick them on there and go, and not be obligated to register in order to have basic things like collections and dictionaries.

I have not once turned on wifi, no need, because I am not an impulse book buyer who has book emergencies. I buy my books and stick them on calibre and then transfer them to my T2 when I need them.

I'm very comfortable with the fact that my e-reader is 'outdated' technology. I don't place a lot of importance on it, and neither do a lot of my Kindle 4 and Kobo Touch reading seatmates on the commute every morning. Since my e-reading needs are met, as well as the fact that I still borrow a lot of physical books from the public library, I'm good to go.

As for the T2's price, I got mine for less than $100 canadian during a sale. 9 dollars less than I paid for the Kindle 4.
