No one should have to, BUT how many would be willing to actually pay more up front for a replaceable battery? My guess, like the SD card question, is only a small minority. It doesn't matter what you or I want (believe me, there are a number of firmware changes I've bitched against in beta's that have stayed in because while I might not like/want it, they feel the majority do). It matters what the "bigger" market wants. Sure there's lot of people on here that want SD card expansion. That doesn't mean the majority (or even a large number) of actual purchasers want it. Yes, you do and some others do. The ereader companies obviously don't feel that the majority cares. Are they always right in what they think? Not likely, but if they survive long term they likely have to be right more often than wrong.
