If you use Overdrive for library books, some of them aren't available for Kindle - only as ePub or maybe PDF. Some Kindle folk also have some type of ePub reader for just that purpose. I found the Simple Touch to be lovely for reading, and aggravating for most anything else (compared to Kindle, or Sony for that matter).
But yeah, value is in the eye of the user, and if you've been in Amazon's ecosystem for a good long while, it might not be something you'd use a lot.
