Like many electronic gadgets, recommendations for an ebook reader have to be made based on the person who will be using the device. Kindle offers simplicity for untechnical people who would get frustrated and lost trying to get ebooks from their libraries, remove the drm, or load ebooks themselves from their computers. I have a number of older friends that fall into this category.
Kindle is easy for them. They can go online and easily purchase books that magically pop up in their Kindle. They are at a place in their lives where convenience is more important than frugality. And Amazon has made Kindle easy with a indepth selection of ebooks for them to purchase.
Obviously, I would recommend to my more technically oriented friends that they look around since Kindle and the Amazon book store may not be best suited to their needs.
