heh, I did not say make the Kindle obsolete.
I said make the Kindle look obsolete. Even if it was not actually obsolete.

I learned this at my day job, being a computer programmer. I could slave away over a hot keyboard all day adding new software functionality and increasing efficiency. But if it did not change anything visible on the computer screen, Management thinks I have not done anything.

However if I spend thirty seconds changing the color of a button from green to blue, they are impressed.

Unfortunately the majority of customers are just as clueless as Management.
