The Kindle is much more an out-of-the-box product than the Astak ... however, they aren't really competing. As Robert points out, the Astak is smaller, lighter, and has a better battery life (in addition to supporting more free content "out of the box").

Most people need some sort of transportation or communication device to buy a "Dead Tree" book.

Does that make a "Dead Tree" book deficient?
You only need to have
access to a computer to
Load books, not to
Read books.
