Odd
This seems like an odd "upgrade" for the Kindle. They ditched the replacable battery (although once we get real specs and a more thorough hands-on, that might be disproved) and memory card slot for speakers that seem impractical (stereo coming out the back?), an awkward joystick navigator and a less rigid case. If the buttons really bothered you that much on the first one, then ok... but unless there's something else we don't know yet, looks like a big regression to me.
I'd be interested to know how they price this one, and if it will affect the current model's price at all.
