I listened to Amazon's annual shareholder's meeting today, and I noticed something when Amazon's CEO (Jeff Bezos) was talking about the Kindle. He doesn't refer to it as "the Kindle," like I do. He refers to it as simply "Kindle." (For example: " We started working on Kindle almost 7 years ago." Or "When we launched Kindle less than four years ago, we launched with only 90,000 titles.")
Does anybody else do this? That's always sounded weird to me, and I've been calling it "the Kindle" since I got it. Maybe a better question would be: does anybody here know anybody who actually refers to it as "Kindle" instead of "the Kindle"?
