The wall street article is for subscribers only (at least via the provided link). However, teleread (OF COURSE Amazon will do a large-screen Kindle) includes the following from that article:
Quote:
as told by “people who said they have seen a version.”
Amazon has a habit of sitting on prototypes for a long time, but if this is primarily for students then the start of the new academic year in the fall would be more likely than Christmas as the release target.

I'm sure Amazon is very concerned that you are underwhelmed. They really should go back and find a way to excite you.

I think we're in the very beginning of this technology. I expect someday to look back upon my Kindle the same way I do my Atari computer.

If it's aimed at the student market I'd expect it to come out early enough in the summer to give people time to 1) hear about it and 2) save up to buy it before school starts. As early as June or July, maybe.
