That's a very good list sirbruce.
I definitely fall in the first as I have no gripes with the K1 other than the occasional accidental page turn.
And the non-replaceable battery does bother me since Amazon charges $59 to replace. I plan on using my Kindle for a long time as I doubt I'll upgrade until there's something out for $200 or less that's basically a touch screen tablet with color e-ink, a great web browser and e-mail system, does A4 pdfs well etc. etc. etc. And that's a long ways off. Probably years. But for now I just want something to read novels and the K1 does that perfectly IMO.
So barring a break I like that I can just pay $20 or less and get a new battery for the K1 every year or 2 when it starts not holding a charge.
Others like to have the latest and greatest and will upgrade every couple years anyway so the battery is not a concern for them as they'll want something new by the time the K2 battery doesn't old a charge anyway.
