Why not have simplified setting like they do now and a set of "advanced" settings for those that want them? That way, you cannot accidentally have to deal with the advanced settings if you do not want. And you can deal with them if you want. Problem solved. But, I cannot see Amazon doing that. It's too logical. One thing Amazon doesn't get is that it is not only the screen size, it's also the features of the Kobo Reader that other go for vs. Kindles. And until Amazon adds these, others will go for Kobo. The only thing I cannot see Amazon doing is supporting ePub. If you use Overdrive outside the US, Kobo is better because most people won't be able to use Overdrive with a Kindle.
