			I'm not bothered by the lack of a memory card slot as long as the unit has a goodly amount of internal memory.  At current flash memory prices, it would not be out of line to hope for as much as 4GB.   
 
I rarely use the flash memory in my Kindle except to plug it in just long enough to offload any excess from the main memory.  I am convinced that it reduces battery life to leave the flash card plugged in all the time.   
 
I just ordered an 'old' Kindle, which shows as delivery estimated 2/26.  I can always cancel it on Monday if I need to, but I am hoping I've gotten in the early queue for the new model.
