While I'm busy complaining about my possible ebook reader choices and their prices, I thought I would locate a few new selections to put on the ebook reader I plan to purchase. You know a little incentive to part with my money.
So I decide to look on amazon for the new release "Game Change" just to see if by chance it was available for the kindle. It's not as expected. I say this because I have been reading this forum and have a little grasp on the tension between ebooks, Amazon and publishers. So Im not suprised a new release that has yet to be released is not available for kindle. Again I was just curious.
But I am suprised that the unreleased book has 16 reviews 8 of which are 1 star because the book is not on Kindle. Seven reviews are 5 stars and one is a 4 star as of 5:32pm EST 11 January 2010. The 4 star actually has some personal political content.
Most of the 5 star reviews are a rebuttal to the one star lack-of-Kindle reviews.
I guess I find irony in technological disagreement over the release of a book that elicits political disagreement
