I can see the point of having a keyboard if you were reading non-fiction textbook type items. But I generally stick to the fiction stuff, and don't annotate stuff.

I am just saying that not all of us want/need all the features, they could create a cheaper one to reach a larger market. I would love to buy books through amazon and get their cheaper ebook prices, but I can't do the upfront costs right now. I would be willing to buy one at a cheaper price, and if it was cheaper I would not expect as many features, thus the reduction in the cost.

I have not used a kindle, because I can't afford it and frankly so far amongst my friends I am a early adopter, and they have not bought a ereader yet.

I would think that most of the people that are buying the kindle and other readers are fairly technologically capable, though I could be wrong in that assumption. It doesn't seem like an item that people that are not comfortable with computers in general would buy. *shrug*
