That has more to do with Apple. There is nothing stopping you from putting other .txt and .mobi files (as an example) on your Kindle.

  Indeed; my Kindle has no books from Amazon on it; it's all .mobi and .txt files I've loaded in myself. That's what makes it such a great device: I get to choose what I load onto it.

    It really sucks that I can't put .mobi and .txt files on my iPad. Damn you, Apple!

      Non-iPad owner, so forgive me if I missed the joke, but can you seriously not do that on the iPad/iPhone? Weird. I use my Droid as a USB drive all the time.

        Of course you can do that on an iPad.

    Same thing for my iBooks, which filled with PDFs and epubs, organized into Collections.
