Instruct: Classify Amazon reviews into positive or negative sentiment
Query: Too restrictive

Why should I pay $400 for a Kindle when I already read ebooks on my Palm in many different formats, at lower prices, from different sources including the public library, plus having my contacts, calendar, various personal lists & documents all on the same device? My ebook library on memory cards & on computer runs about 500 books & is still growing. As I understand it, a Kindle would restrict me to just reading material purchased from Amazon. I like Amazon, but I also like the short stories I can purchase at Fictionwise; I even read fanfiction on my pda. A Kindle just doesn't make sense for me.
