OK, time to stress a few points:
- MobileRead is dedicated to discussing e-book readers and trends in e-books;
- Various leaks (through the FDA, through Amazon's webstore, and through various publishers) have acknowledged the existence of the Kindle reader;
- This particular forum section is all about the Kindle reader;
- Rumors and speculations is what makes life interesting.
We don't force anybody to believe what we say. Au contraire: we love to hear different opinions. And I believe that this community is doing a great job in bringing different perspectives together - always in a
civil manner!
bowerbird, I kindly ask you not to make presumptions about what other people think, or about their motives for visiting our site. In fact, it's very rude when you imply that we or other forum members lead people to believe in unfounded speculations. It's our hobby to talk about e-book readers (see point 1 above), whether it's a reader we got in our hands or a reader that's just been mentioned in the NYTimes. You are free to disagree, but please let's get on and focus on the primary subject of this discussion, the Kindle Reader.
