Remind me again please why I need a USB port on my reader...

I compare the DXi to the iPad. Yes little me, Jane or John Doe. There are hundreds of thousand like me, by the way. People who just want a device that works, that works beautifully, that is reasonably priced and super easy to learn. A device that has fantastic support and looks great to boot.
I compare the the DXi to the iPad because they only 2 large 'international' devices aimed at the casual reader. When you compare the two readers, the one comes off rather badly.
The other large readers that are aimed for the business sector, are way out of my price range and don't even nearly live up to the iPad (IMHO)... not for my uses anyway.
My 2 cents...
