I'm with you. We are a society that is bombarbed constantly by ads, reading and book browsing are a couple of my sacred places and I'm not about to allow them to invade my space by saving $25 or so.

Ah! I see where I confused you. The download of the Kindle is free and you pay for the stories. So, by using your computer you don't have to pay to buy a handheld Kindle, but you do have to buy the stories.

To the best of my knowledge, yes. My most recent download was a short story by Steve Berry, 99c + tax.

Not sure it is totally relevant to this discussion, but wanted to say that Amazon has a free Kindle download to your PC, no advertisements so far. I use mine on a notebook, larger that the Kindle itself, but still fits comfortably in my lap.

Yes. I'd go along with that. Though it seems to me that the business model suggests that using the item itself is a money maker for Kindle. Surely the price reduction doesn't reflect their income from those thingies. Perhaps one should make a study of how the advertising profits share out.
