Funny thing is they often assume that the hardest features are trivial and the most trivial are very hard.
EDIT: I can see it now... Amazon implements a "very simple" version of hyphenation which occasionally splits the word incorrectly and armchair programmers scream about how simple of a problem is, why couldn't they get it right?!? It's a fatal flaw that makes their device look second-rate!

I'm sure our own ixtab would be happy to let Amazon's lab126 use his JBPatch hack for free (actually, they probably already have it as they have successfully done everything they can to stifle it). I guess the most rigorous part of the reprogramming they would need to do is the yes/no in settings as to whether one wanted to use hyphenations. Considering many of the other software additions of dubious value that they have implemented, yes I do think this would be trivial.
Edit- I guess what I'm trying to say is that hyphenations software has already been coded and works well. They wouldn't need to reinvent the wheel (sorry, couldn't resist
)
