I see that overwhelming majority misses the additional memory. That's why K1 is still KING!

I wish the K2 had the SD card slot and user replaceable battery of the K1. I'm not sure it's fair to say I "miss" them; so far I haven't suffered for the lack, but they were reassuring--"You'll never run out of memory. You'll always be able to replace your battery if it dies."

I really like the joystick a lot better for its ability to move sideways, which has made possible a whole bunch of changes that made the user interface more efficient. But there's no denying it's slower than the roller was, which is sometimes irritating.

Regarding my wishlist for kindle, on the other hand, pretty much nothing has changed. Put "no DRM" and "worldwide" and "folders or tags" up there at the top and then work your way down to "A4 screen, native pdf support," etc.

Actually, one of the things I wish they would do has to do with the Kindle store rather than the Kindle itself; I wish they would clearly mark which books have TTS disabled and which books have DRM.
That has my vote, as well!
