I really have to think that Amazon will come out with a touch device at some point. I think the KSO was really chasing the price point, but doesn't indicate necessarily an intent to stick with the K3/keyboard model. I mean, isn't the KSO just a K3 with slightly different software (the screensaver + updating capability)?
I think Amazon almost HAS to announce touch and tablet models soon. Not because they're wonderful devices (DEAD HORSE) but because B&N has them and you can't really let a major competitor corner a market. Amazon is too competitive for that.... I think. :O |
These are my thoughts too. I think Amazon will announce a touch model soon for the same reasons. When Sony came out with the new touchscreen it really didn't get too much excitement. However, the Nook STR has prompted more articles in the media about how cool & modern the touchscreen is in comparison to the Kindle. Now that Sony, B&N and Kobo have gone that route it really seems to be setting a trend for future hardware developments.
Funny aside - yesterday I was reading on my K3, and I tried to swipe the screen to turn the page.
