I think banning a Kindle borders on ridiculous--especially since that device barely needs Internet access and has no distracting backlight.

But, if those coffeeshop owners want to really starting losing business big-time, go right ahead!

I am a Kindle reader and unless you are buying/downloading a new book, you don't need internet access at all (I guess some folk may want to download current newspapers however).

IMO this issue is a tempest in a teapot since the free market will adjust itself accordingly.
