And yet part of the sizzle used to lure adults into buying the Kindle steak is the ability to buy any book you like from wherever you are right from the Kindle. (With perhaps an asterisk as a clue that somewhere else on the page is a tiny slightly dark gray font on a very light gray background advisement on the temporal and geographic limitations on "whenever" and "wherever".) One of the consequences of tolerating puffery is dealing with those that take the puffery seriously.
On the other hand, I suspect some future poster will want to know why their device downloads fine anywhere on Earth and Mars, but not on the trip in between.
