As a Kindle 1 owner, the only major improvement I see in Kindle 2 is TTS. I am assuming they have new dedicated hardware support for this, otherwise it would just be a software update. No SD card slot though, just increased memory. No folder support, no native PDF viewing, no third party apps. Case not included in the base package anymore. I don't think I'm going to upgrade.

In one of the promo videos they demonstrated the TTS. The quality of the audio was robotic, so this feature does not really appeal to me.
