I understand if you value battery life over convenience and loss of features, but I don't. Isn't it wonderful that we can both choose the way we want to use our devices?

I find no need to sync. I'm perfectly able to read multiple books on different devices. I have a eBook going on my H2O and an audiobook going on my iPhone. I have no problem with that. I rarely read on my iPhone these days.I read on my H2O. I rarely read in my Kindle. I use my Kindle for Amazon eBooks where the coding is a big mess and I don't feel like trying to fix it to be decent code. I just fix a few things and I'm good enough to go.
