You didn’t even mention tags/labels! Once I get past 100 books (and that should happen soon at the rate I’m going), I am really, really going to want a way to show only those items that I have labeled “fantasy” or “science fiction” or “unread” or “short story.” This should be a software fix with Kindle 1.0!
Color would be nice only if I don’t have to trade it for battery time. I don’t care about a touch screen, I don’t care about ugly, and I’m used to the Next page key (just hold it by the keyboard. Except for the bottom row they keys don’t matter while you’re reading).
DRM, yes, that is annoying. Down with DRM!
The 5 fixes seem to me come from a person who won’t purchase a Kindle unless they fix these things, as opposed to a person who has used the Kindle and has comments on what they would like to see improved. I own a Kindle, and I think these fixes that he speaks of are the initial argument that I saw when the Kindle first came out from people who wouldn’t even consider getting one. As a Kindle user, I would definitely like to have the ability to organize my books, etc. better.
