Why Amazon Doesn't Need Kindle 2.0
I tend to agree with the article. The Kindle really needs a software upgrade. Those who are more into form factor over functionality will not be happy with the BoyGenius version (if it's true).

Amazon's dependence on partners like Sprint and E-Ink means that, aside from marginal hardware upgrades, the next Kindle's real improvements will likely be incremental software touch-ups that make its interface smoother and easier to use, Forrester analyst James McQuivey surmises. "The next Kindle can't be dramatically better," he says. "There's very little other than the pleasantness of the experience that you can tweak."
