Jeff Bezos was on NightLine news last night: Plugging K2 and stressing that it isn't the end of libraries, books...etc. He was saying that we have to evolve with the times electronically. He discussed the fact that some books will never be on the K and that the two can coinside peacefully. He wants the best "book/book" wise and Kindlewise. He believes that Amazon can do a book/book business and a Kbook business equally successfully.
When the subject of the book smell and the love of it was brought up. He explained it away by saying that all you are smelling is glue and more glue. The interviewer said then spray the kindle with a book smell spray.
It showed a pic of his first house and how he started from his garage...now sporting about 25 warehouses. Let's just say "Jeff's come a long way" baby...his 1st house was a shack!! We must never forget our humble beginnings.
