I ask this because, in my life I'm able to plan ahead enough to download 4 or 5 books at a time and when the shelf starts to look a little bare, I download a few more. I read on a Sony PRS505 and have no built in internet and don't find it disadvantage. I do like this method because it allows me to keep a copy on my computer in addition to my eReader.

TIA.
That was EXACTLY the same thought i had BEFORE i was ordering my first kindle. I did it with the feeling at least the whispernet feature will be a nice to have for me but useless at all.

That changed after the Kindle arrived and i found out i am a reallly lazy person.
