Why? Because I CHOSE to. I love having all those books there, just like on my wall.

Now, some tech somewhere decided I didn't need that choice.

They also took away my choice of replacing the battery. While its still replaceable, I have to send it in to Amazon, or risk voiding the warranty by doing it myself.

These are two huge steps backwards.
No disrespect... but it sounds like you "choose" to keep the Kindle 1 then.
