It's not common for me to get the battery low warning when I'm sitting and waiting for the doctor to remember what an appointment is but it would be nice to get a 30% charge in 15 minutes when it happens.
You planning on carrying the charging pad with you to the doctor's office? You'll need to plug it in as well. Carry a small power bank with you. I charge my stuff at night, so the time it takes is unimportant.

I do use the USB port to install updates and that takes a while.
? My experience with transferring BIN files to a Kindle is that it doesn't take long at all. 240mb bin file over usb 2.0 takes a few seconds.

Let me know when you find a $20 Kindle. But, I understand. Change is hard for some.
The cost to add it to a device would means increased purchase price up front, for an option that just isn't necessary for an e-reader, plus the cost of the pad. Most users want reading improvement over negligible hardware "improvements. And the patronizing tone is unnecessary.
