All I want is an e-ink device that I can use with books purchased from Amazon, Apple, Google, B&N, and other vendors.

Why is that so hard?

Check out the Kobo.

[criddell]

I have. Last time I checked, the Kobo couldn't open DRM protected books from Amazon.

It can if you remove the DRM from them. Amazon is selling you a broken product, so I don't recommend buying books from them anyway.

[criddell]

True, but I wouldn't care about DRM if I could still buy books at any bookstore.

DVD's and Blueray disks have DRM, but I can buy one from any store and it will work with my player and my TV. It doesn't seem like a lot to ask for.
