But for the present, I agree with you, I'll keep my Kindle and see what the market comes up with in a few years. I certainly would not purchase the first version of the iPad, just as I did not purchase the first release of the Kindle or the Sony.

Looking forward to firmware 2.5 on my Kindle for the sharper fonts and organizing books into collections. Even without it, the Kindle is GREAT!!!
Color E-ink..... To read Tolstoy in Neon Pink? For Comix that are not Published n Japan (most Manga is in Black and white)?

I actually NEVER want to see color e-ink come to life.... Plus a mate of mine in Organic Chemistry says it ain't so easy to do with e-ink technology....
