Amazon’s new electronic book reader Kindle, despite having just been released on November 19, has sold out already. Is this just a case of people wanting to be cool by buying the latest gadget?
To be honest I think the design is crap. Whatever about the functionality I’d find it hard to pay $399 for something which looks like a kids V-Tech computer.
If I was going to get an ebook reader I’d at least go for something stylish like Sony’s Reader Digital Book or the Cybook Gen 3.
And that’s a big IF. I hate reading long text from a screen. I think I’ll wait until they invent lcd screens with the look and feel of paper.
