Glad there was a small bit of humor for you. You should see the splash down landing which followed. I know it was not the sharpest of shots but was fun to take when testing the new gear. If I run across any other fun shots I'll share them. I always shoot ducks with my new lenses because ducks are colorful and offer a good test for the optics of the lens. Plus the ducks we have around here are like crack whores for "duck chow", ie Wonder Bread.
As to the whole Kindle fiasco, I just am happy to say I am glad I did not buy into it simply because I did not like the gray display background. And something about the company store feeling of the Kindle, and to be honest the Sony too, made me uneasy.
We'll just have to see what the rest of the year brings with all the new devices coming out. That is unless Amazon buy PVI or something like that. Stranger things have happened. And these days in the US the anti-monopoly or anti-competitive practices laws are the corporation's "beaches"!
