Other than the obvious, as in meaning low glare screen, good resolution, most formats supported, natural paper look on the screen, etc., I want an ebook reader that has a user replaceable battery and is capable of downloading newspapers/magazines or having them downloaded to PC automatically and then uploaded to the reader. Any suggestions other than the Kindle? I like what the Kindle is capable of, but it is too closely tied to Amazon making it a bit closed and I understand the batteries in the new Kindles are not user replaceable. Not sure what other ebook readers have user replaceable batteries and I cannot find anything other than the Kindle that will get me the daily paper and monthly magazines.

Thought I would ask the experts here.

Thanks,

Duffy
