Comments on: Is Amazon’s Kindle The New iPod? http://www.developerzen.com/2008/08/13/is-amazons-kindle-the-new-ipod/ The essence of software development...

If the Kindle can integrate into our timeshifting lifestyle, offering a simple and convenient way of reading, then the opportunity is there.

It's the perfect solution for all the computer/programming books I keep ordering by the boat load from Amazon. Plus, it supports RSS, audio books and even a browser. If version 2.0 will support wi-fi, I'll definitely buy one. I’ve been wanting one since it came out.

I've been buying all my books there for years now... Its the best online shop around... Anyway, I wasn't saying that there's no crowd for books. But you have to agree that the music crowd is way bigger... Amazon does enjoy worship. I’ve been buying all my books there for years now… Its the best online shop around…

But there is a big difference compared to the iPod - Amazon doesn't enjoy Apples relion-like worship, and there are alternatives to the Kindle out there.
