It's crippled because you HAVE to use the cover Amazon provides (at least at this point), even if you would like something different such as a sleeve, or an Oberon cover. If you don't, your battery life will be non-existent.
Even if someone else comes out with a different cover that can also hold a battery, you have to buy the original cover along with the reader, and then not use it. That makes for a hugely expensive reader that adds very few things if anything compared to a Voyage, or even a KPW3.
