I like to read a lot, so at when I had first heard about this, I did get pretty excited. That was until I saw/read about the $400 POS. Smart move by Amazon to have Authors review the new tech item.
As for Guy, I’d be willing to bet he has an affiliate set up for the overpriced and oversized Gameboy. (the ones with out the backlight)

If you get a chance listen to Scoble’s rant. It is hilarious.

I think there is a lot of potential in this market. I just hope this isn’t the apex. :\

Except for the wireless capability and long battery life, it sounds like it’s less capable than my 14-year old Newton.

And, it can’t read PDFs?

There must be something in Guy Kawasaki’s water, ’cause I’d rather have an iPhone than a Kindle.
