Keep it a little real, though.
Amazon could have inserted in there, that they will take your house and bind you into slavery, if you lose the arbitration, and still 99.999% of purchasers would click "Accept." Because only really, really weird people read these lengthy agreements, before they buy a $400 product
What people do read, though, is the advertised description of the product, with all the wonderful promises made, like: "... Wireless: 3G wireless lets you download books right from your Kindle, anytime, anywhere; no monthly fees, service plans, or hunting for Wi-Fi hotspots...." See the text in blue in post #316 above.
Then Amazon even goes on to tell us, that your Kindle would be USELESS, without access to a "massive selection of books."
