You know Americans have always been given the bad wrap of wanting everything yesterday. Amazon's "Boundary" issue goes to show you we all bleed the same color.

It would be a bad business decision of Amazon tried to deploy everything in one year. People don't realize the extent of how they've changed the business they have done such a great job in making their product seamless they don't see the huge infrastructure underneath the product.

If they rush a solution and botch it up the people will be less forgiving than having to wait up to a year.

Look what happened to RIM (BlackBerry) with their Storm. In order to compete with the iPhone they rushed a device too early to the market and have gotten tones of bad press for it.

Good point, Amazon is not a hardware company this will take them a while to understand, but they are improving. Remember the first kindle that was considered to be a five beer girl.
