Yup. I have looked at the Nook, Kobo, and Sony but never moved. I can move easily enough. I use Marvin on my iPad. The folks on this board are much more into hacks, fonts, and customization then most of the population.
I know there are folks who love being able to adjust margins, change fonts, and adjust line spacing. I wouldn't mind being able to do that but I am fine with how I can adjust things right now.
I don't need an SD card. I have 440 books on my PW2 (given some are collections of all an authors work, it is really closer to 600) and it runs just fine. I think that I will be ok finding something to read even if I end up maxing out the memory. And the WiFi makes it easy enough for me to download a different book. And I have my iPad with a ton of space in a pinch.
And I know that if something happens to my Kindle if I am travelling, Amazon will send me a replacement where ever I am.
I think the Kindle does well because it works and has great customer support. I think that we tend to over look that Amazon jumped into the ebook market when it wasn't cool and before the tablet rage hit. The only ereader I knew of at the time was the Sony and its book store sucked. Amazon built brand loyalty by entering the market and doing a great job supporting the K1. The ebook store was superior for a long, long time.
I am not saying I won't buy a different e-reader only that a company has to do somethign really different with their ereader and have at least decent customer service to make me think about moving.
