Kindle me this, Batman.

19Nov07

Cool biz model (pay once for the device with EVDO access), but I don’t like the electric paper display still.

Maybe if the paper had a nice texture and malleability to it, it’d be better. And more people would use it. Haptics, Bezos, haptics!

    Yeah, I was kind of meh about the whole thing until I heard that the EVDO service didn’t have a subscription cost. If O’Reilly books are $10 on there, that would be a pretty compelling development resource.

    I believe everything that Cory Doctorow tells me.
