Well since at least 95% of people with Kindles bought them for an easy way to get books from Amazon, I still don't see the real concern.
Last time I looked the basic kindles which may or may not support kfx can still be bought new for $79.99. So it would appear that if I want the new features, I would have to buy a higher end kindle to get that particular format.
Can someone please verify the support?
