I don’t know why people are whining so much about the Kindle 2. This is the first digital reader I have purchased and I absolutely love it. Wants the big deal about the SD memory slot anyway???? Who wants to have to keep 2500 books that you have already read on hand at all times anyway! I like the fact that Amazon keeps my already read book in a library for me so I don’t have to worry about loosing my SD card thus loosing my E-books.
As far as storing pictures and music; I think you people have ordered the wrong device try an I-Pod or a digital picture frame instead of a DIGITAL READER; HELLO!! You might have better luck. Good job Amazon this is a far better reader than the Sony reader my friend bought he wishes he would have purchased the Kindle 2 reader instead after seeing mine.

I've read elsewhere that it doesn't work in Canada yet. Double check this claim before investing in the device if Canada is important to you.
