@ mattkenny: I think the idea here is to design for the end user's experience- the consumer. Maybe nerds like you and me realize the fully modular potential of our PCs with tools, but most consumers don't. If you want to convince someone for whom a PC is just another appliance to upgrade it, you're going to need to create an interface that enables this type of participation.
For those looking for a device strictly for reading, the new Kobo is a nice little option. It's small enough to slip into a pocket, can do more with a PDF than the competition, and at $129, it's $10 cheaper than both the Nook and Kindle WiFi.
