We forget the most important benefit of Kindle ownership- snob appeal. Not the money angle, but intelligence. Do a quick survey of the Verbal section SAT scores of iPad users vs. Kindle users. Most of the people I see purchasing an iPad at Apple Stores are lowbrows. Not all, but the majority. Kindle buyers are hard core readers. Case closed. Lol.
