I agree. One of the things I love about my Kindle is that it’s a single-use device, functionally equivalent to holding a paperback in my hands. There’s nothing to distract me or tempt me away from reading. Apps would risk breaking that spell.

Yeah, the fact that my Kindle can't do anything other than read books is its best feature. Same with my Remarkable for focused writing.
