I see Apple is suing to keep the Samsung Galaxy Note tablet off the US market, they seem skeered. Galaxy Notes look awesome, btw

"Since then Amazon's tablet has stolen 22 percent of the tablet market in the U.S., the company said last week."

I wouldn't say stolen. They found a nitch in the market for people that don't need big screens and cameras. They are also betting on revenue generated by users buying apps and media.

I note this passage from the source article:
Since then Amazon's tablet has stolen 22 percent of the tablet market in the U.S., the company said last week.
Stolen? STOLEN???

They have a superior, less expensive product.

The EARNED 22 percent of the market.

Amazon and Jeff Bezos can pound sand: since they decided to contribute to the cause of gay "marriage", I have stopped spending a dime on them.

I did like my Kindle, but it's in the trash - I'll support the competition from here on.
