Which is fair, I guess, because then it'll become an issue of you having an extra copy of the book (which might be another discourse for DRM and legal issues).

I'd be surprised if Amazon does the same thing, given how much stricter they're being right now.
It is nice that Kobo does it just like that. I was just thinking out loud. There been other features that trickled down from Kobo to Kindle, maybe this one will too. All is about compromise: the Scribe is cheaper with a nicer screen, and Elipsa has different ways to customize.
