Jesus Christ, that was harsh. I love my Kindle and want it to do well, but I don't want YOUR Sony to DIE in a pool of its own blood... err, e-ink.
Of COURSE there are more devices than the Kindle out there, but "better" is a relative concept, Serrah. Do you just hate the hype over the Kindle, that is has become synonymous with the sight of an e-reader, at least in the US? I think the any Kindle 3 is better than a Sony Pocket reader but if someone wants to take bare-bones to a whole new level than for them, the Sony is a better device for them.
If ADE was so bloody important to the Kindle's continued existence in the face of nearly every competitor using it, then Amazon would have either- made the Kindle use ADE or have simply bowed in defeat.
Seeing as neither of those two things have happened....
