In my experience, most fans of Amazon are restrained until they (the users, not Amazon itself) are attacked as "Kindlebots" or "Kool-Aid Drinkers," are told that we get "wide and dreamy eyed" when we read an Amazon press release, and are accused of being "not savvy" and having done "no research" because we bough a Kindle. And these attacks are just from the past month.
