I concur that the basic end user likely will not care as he does not know better. I think that most people who buy eBook Readers are buying their first one and they may likely only know it works and they can choose books they want. They are not aware (maybe do not want to be aware) that there is a trade off known as "freedom of choice". Thank you, pkovak!
