Well, the Kindle is still a very ugly device... Normally, I'd say "I find it a very ugly device", but in this case, that's not enough!
(it used to drive our granny nuts! haven't seen her in a while, though 
)
All jokes besides, what I wrote above is what can make me very angry. People are generally generalizing.
They find something terrible, and thus everybody should find it terrible. Or
they find something perfect and thus, everybody should find it perfect.
In case of the Ipad, apperently, there simply isn't a middle way. Either a person is crazy about it and only points out its strong points, or a person finds only flaws with it. I've not really found any review that points out both.
(I still think it would have been a great device if it had a card reader, USB ports and a more flexible OS, one that doesn't allow one company to censure what you use on it).
