Amazons upcoming tablet and their unique quantities of free ebooks

Quote:
Are you familiar with eReaderIQ, the free Kindle ebook site? They have a RSS feed, daily email, and a website dedicated to showing you all the latest free ebooks for the Kindle. They find around 130 new free ebooks each week.

Think about that for a second. Only 1 of the 3 largest ebookstores in the US have vast quantities of free ebooks. Surely that’s not an accident. The only way that I can see such a difference occurring is if someone worked to create the situation deliberately. I truly believe that Amazon have more free ebooks because that is part of their business plan.

folks, that daily free app is most definitely not an accident.

I don’t know if Amazon have a tablet at all, but I am quite certain that they will not sell it as a loss leader. The idea just does not fit with the external appearance of their current business plan.
If it's not priced to move, the Amazon tablet had better bring some revolutionary, compelling and heretofore unseen 'got to have it' features to the tablet space.

I can already use their music, ebooks and apps on my Android tablet, and others can do the same on their iPads.

I'm waiting with interest to see what happens with this one.
