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.
