Title: USB access essential to you? Don't buy yet.
Product review: If USB access is essential to you, such as if you're planning to use the Kindle 2 overseas right away, don't buy it yet. (If you're overseas, you must use USB to download new books to the Kindle; you can't use wireless.) Last night we were trying to hook it up to a brand-new, high-powered laptop and were unable to get the laptop to recognize it. Lots of other users are reporting the same problem on a variety of operating systems, so it's clearly a Kindle 2 problem. If I were you, I'd wait until Amazon recognizes and rolls out a major fix for this problem.
