And the 3G is something people value, and therefore Amazon has sold them ever since, despite your belief that: Amazon has no competition therefore why would they.
Thank you for coming to my defense.  |
The other thing to remember is that the 3G connectivity, unlike an SD card, is perfectly consistent with Amazon's designed usage pattern. Amazon's hardware feature set on the Kindle makes total sense, especially when you consider that they probably see all their hardware as a continuum so if people want audio they can just get a Fire.
I don't know why people have such a problem with the idea that the reason the Kindle doesn't have an SD slot is because it doesn't need one for it's designed function. Users may want one, but the Kindle doesn't need one for anything it's designed to do.
