There is nothing wrong with supporting your chosen reader, format, etc. It's Human nature to say "my whatsit is better than your whatsit" but lately it seems that a lot of folks are taking things to the extreme. I see more and more posts dedicated to bashing readers, formats, authors, or books.
Instead of bashing so much I think everyone should take a step back and remember that we are still a minority in a big market place and we are all hoping to expand everyone's horizons so that ebooks and ebook readers do not become the laser discs of tomorrow. I'm not saying don't argue the merits or downfalls of whatever, just keep in mind why it is that we are all here while you do it.
