Also, I believe Amazon MAY release an e-reader with E-ink Triton (colour). However, the Triton films will not be ready until next year
Yeah, there is a lot of info on Amazon introducing an Android color LCD tablet. However, Amazon's e-ink Kindle line is getting old. The new Nook is superior to the Kindle 3. For example, the Nook is much easier to use since it has a touchscreen interface, is faster, has a longer battery life, has several features that the Kindle doesn't, and supports more ebook formats. I would be surprised if Amazon didn't introduce a black and white e-ink ereader that at least matches the Nook on the more important features.
