No, no, no - My title meant that we are all ready for the K2, set for the K2, and as soon as it comes out, we will complain about something it had or didn't have.

But I want to complain about my sore lat's.
OK, how about, why did Amazon announce this silly press conference two weeks in advance forcing me to speculate what the heck they were going to announce.

But it's not out yet, so we can complain about anything until then right? I've got 4 kids..I can complain all day long I'm sure. |

I just got off work. My back hurts, my feet hurt, my arms hurt, I cut my hand (yet again) and I sprained my left pointer finger. God I love working at UPS!

NO FOLDERS, no upgrade for me. How could they not fix this. There must be some technological reason why.

Looks like there is no SD card. No folders, no SD card, this sucks.

And my order is automatically upgraded?! Grrr. I have a case, lite, skin, and SD card. I'm going to have to call CS and complain. "I'll be happy" - nope, I'm feeling suckered about now.  |

It appears there is no replaceable battery.

I don't like the fact that I have been waiting since Dec. 7th but yet kindle 1 owners will go to the top of the queue if they want to upgrade. I see more waiting in my future. Amazon will make me wait so long for a kindle that my husband will get laid off and I will cancel my order.

Well we don't really know about the folders. Maybe that wasn't worth mentioning to them at that particular venue.
But looks like you are right on the other 2 things. To me honestly, the SD would not be such a issue, but I know it is for others. The battery, sounds like they made it more durable to last longer. I guess one gains some and loses some.
I can't wait to hear from users here when they get their new ones and compare it with the 1.

I have a K1 that I greatly enjoy and will be holding on to so I have no complaints.

Wow. I know you can't please all of the people all of the time, but man. Can't I get one funky little folder?! All I get is that stupid Archive thing? And still no PDF? And no cover?
Back to the positive--I am SURE that the first update will fix this (at least the folders). But I do feel sorry for all the folks that ordered a K1 and are getting a K2. I ordered one, but after reviewing, will probably be giving it to my daughter.

Question - what is the Archive thing that you mentioned?
I guess they stopped making K1s in December. If you have a problem now, I guess you will get a K2 replacement.
Since they didn't include folders, there must be some technological reason why not. This was the #1 request for improvements on all the lists. They wouldn't have ignored it if there wasn't some big problem.

I'm upset about the SD card. My MIL was going to share her books with my Husband and I via a SD card. Now I'm not sure what to do. My husband wanted to store the books on an SD card in case something went nuts with the amazon site. Now I've got to figure it all out. You would think that making us wait for our orders we have had placed for months they would have at least thrown in a free case for us or something. I also don't like that the K1 owners get priority over our very early orders.

You can store the books on your computer in case something happens with the Amazon website.

You can't share books via SD card swapping. If the Kindles are on the same account, you can each download a copy of the book for no extra charge. Oh, and welcome to Kindle Boards! |
