Good points... but I have these extended fantasies of carrying my ENTIRE LIBRARY with me on a single device. If I'm on the bus and I want to read the first chapter of Moby Dick (pure genius, BTW), I'd have it. Or if I was having a poetry discussion and suddenly remembered some Mary Oliver poem that I wanted to share, boom, I'd have it.

I guess I want my ebook to replace my non-e-books, fully and completely, and for that I need a whole bunch of gigabytes, and faster read/write times, and better folder/browsing tools. It doesn't have to be a LOT better, but there are a couple of simple features that I really look forward to.

Anyway, we forum-types love to gripe about what the eReader doesn't have... but we wouldn't be here griping if we didn't already really love what the device is already doing for us.
