It's been hard getting a handle on Amazon's drm. If I can move books off the Kindle and save them on the pc, that sounds great. There were a number of comments on the web that made it seem like you were limited to Kindle's capacity and had to delete something to make room for new books (which makes it seem like renting vs buying).



I'm curious what will be announced this week. If I can hold off until summer - when I presume someone from the US will come visit - maybe I can get a Kindle or a next generation model.
No, you simply add an SD card. I have a 4 GB on mine, and it should hold about an addition 4000 books. If I want more, some people report the 16 GB works fine.
