Hey! You just beat me to it! I was about to post that same article.
I am shocked, however, that they put a major typo in one caption: They spelled "its" as "it's" in the caption that says "Sony has a campaign at Grand Central Station to promote the Sony Reader, it's digital book."
You would be surprised - amazed actually as to how often I come across that misuse of the apostrophe showing possession but actually it reads as a contraction. I spend a large part of my day researching legal briefs and legal papers published and I see it all the time.
Thanks for this post! I remembered we had a thread on this topic from a few days ago but it sunk down, so I merged these together. Everyone, this article is very interesting and well worth reading.
The Kindle was mentioned several times this a.m. by Elizabeth Vargas (her and her husband got them for Christmas and had questions) and I waited around to see what she would ask the tech lady but they never got around to it.
Just was on Amazon (well, have been on all day!)...but the Danielle Steel books are now on Amazon. I've been looking around a lot of other stuff today...so not sure when it popped on the site!
When I first heard about e-readers I thought no way, uh-uh, not me. I have to read onscreen to do my editing and handle email and stuff, but read books for pleasure? Not going to happen I said. Which only goes to show you I should learn to shut up while I'm still ahead. Now I want a Kindle, since I've heard so much good about them. Wah, I want one. I want one.
And I can't afford one. At least not until I sell enough books to make it possible.
I hope you get one soon, Pat! There are some good deals out there on previously loved Kindles.
