No, my expectation is that it will be put into a device that caters to fringe groups and nitpickers.

Although those devices will also appeal to others, I am sure. (For other reasons.)
My expectation is that Amazon will NEVER put in a card slot no matter how many people want such. They do so because of the cloud. Amazon expects people to buy eBooks from them and to download what they need when they need it. Amazon does not expect customers to keep all of their eBooks on the Kindle at one time.

An SD slot is not for fringe groups or nitpickers. An SD slot can be very useful. It means you can store eBooks on it and use it to go from one Reader to another without having to have a computer handy. I have an card slot and I've not used it. But that doesn't mean I never will. So please don't insult people just because they want a card slot on a Reader.
