All of the existing tablets (except, as I said, the TouchPad, at the moment) are Kindles, to the extent that a tablet can be a Kindle. The biggest differentiator between a Kindle and a tablet running the Kindle software is the e-ink screen, isn't it? If you keep the e-ink screen, it's not going to be much of a tablet, and if you get rid of the e-ink screen, it's just a tablet with an Amazon logo, as far as I can tell.

I just don't see the advantage for Amazon with this.
