Clearly Amazon is not about supporting an open eco-system with its ebook sales. However, for what it's worth at least it opens options. I, for example, have been considering picking up a slate-style windows based tablet PC that is lightweight and relatively inexpensive for reading PDF's more comfortably. This would of course work on that device as well...

And though I do generally free my kindle downloads from DRM, I also like the whispersync functionality. So if I already had that tablet, I would definitely be using this app. As it stands, it might be useful to let me sell off my K2 if it becomes a vector for drm removal
