I'm pretty much the same hate stuff kinda mindset. So I'm curious did you get the DX or the original. DX seems more useful for pdfs/studying but less pocketable.

I got the regular size Kindle 2.0. It does suck for unmodified PDF's, but i have yet to try: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1089068

That said, I "bought in" intellectually accepting that I shouldn't expect to straight up enjoy all my PDF's on this thing. I decided e-readers would be something that would be worth it (for me) to take a hit with the early adopter tax.
