Prior to the Kindle2 being released I had heard rumors that Amazon was going to release two new Kindles, and one was supposed to be a larger screen version. I was a bit disappointed when the Kindle 2 was officially announced because I was far more interested in the larger version. I decided not to upgrade and hold out for the larger version. (I.e. the rumors were out there).
However, I do have to say that I was pleasantly surprised that they decided to release the large screen version so soon. I also think it's pretty smart because it prevents competitors like Plastic Logic from taking away market share.
