People reading who don't know about the technology will think the Kindle is the only one who has this technology. Very frustrating.

I tend to agree with the above post, but to my mind any reasonably positive, even neutral, even slightly negative
mention of ebooks, ebook devices in any mainstream media is a plus. I do not have a Kindle and I do not see myself getting gone soon since I love my 700, but without the competition and excitement generated by it, I doubt we would have all this movement on the ebook front that started making front pages everywhere, including the iPhone stuff, the Sony stuff...
