It's like not wanting mayonnaise on my sandwich. I don't care if it's free, I don't want it. I want NOT to have it!

But I see your point and that of the people who said, "Kobo got press because it was much cheaper. Now it isn't much cheaper. So where does Kobo go from here?"
Hmm.... Never knew that some people would really really NOT want certain features on their device if it didn't take away from the main functions. So you're saying for instance if you could turn off the wifi and the LCD screen, but have the OPTION to turn it on, you really wouldn't want to have those features on there for no additional cost.

Personally, I want as many features the device can fit, twitter and all, but only if I have the option of configuring it so that I could turn my device into a Kobo if I wanted to.
