ROFL! Same Old Crap, New Attractive Can.
I don’t see paid news selling all that well.
BTW, it’s interesting to see them taking Kindle on directly. IMHO the appliance+ePaper form factor a la Kindle is better for distribution of “ink” stuff, than a general purpose LCD tablet computer. We’ll see how it goes. It’ll be interesting
A backlit screen cannot compete with E-Ink. A tablet will just be another “all purpose” device like a cell phone with a camera. It will not be a Kindle killer.
