Well, in perspective of noob to ebook readers, I'd qualify, the EZ Reader is my first device, and I've had it all of three months or so. BUT... I was and am familiar with computers (though I hate command line), and I did my homework (thanks to all of you here at MR) so I wouldn't call myself "a basic end user". pkovak has a good point - whispernet IS easy (or so I've heard) and convenient, but I DO care about having my books backed up (which is something the basic user might not think about). There are a lot of people who read a book and discard it, but I'm not one of them, which is why a Kindle just isn't for me. I want my freedom of choice as to where to buy and where I can store the book, among a myriad of other concerns.
