It has really brought into focus the exact market I'm shopping in: multi-function tablet devices. Tons of companies are going to enter the fray at better prices than Apple with more open operating systems. This is a good thing for me. The more people that buy iBook books are also going to help get more books for me on the market to read in ebook format. The Amazon president himself said just the other day that color e-Ink is a LONG way from happening. You have to wonder - will the Kindle have a LCD multifunction version in the future? I'm betting YES.
That is a sweet looking device. I can imagine that it will give the Kindle a run for its money unless Amazon comes up with something similar in the form of a Kindle 3. And it will definitely take away some iPad sales as well. Good times coming for the ereading public, I think.
