My interpretation if this review was "if it's not it kindle it stink"! Pretty much all of his criticisms for not having all of the Amazon features. Essentially he could slam all the other eBooks for the same reason.

I found it interesting that when he mentioned amazon "TTS" no mention of this feature being disabled.

Did anybody notice when he criticized the eBook store for lack of ebooks and showed a "0" search result, he was looking for a "Harry Potter" book. He should have been fair and showed the same search on the Amazon page.

The video was great entertainment value but aside from that it was a very poor review.

Sorry I'm with John Stewart's view on the media, its the journalist job and responsibility to do a good job on any story they write
