Sorry, but Kindle is going to eat the Sony reader (and all others) alive in this area. Here's why...
Let's say that my worst yuppie-geek nightmare comes true and I find myself at a coffee shop without a wifi connection (it could happen). I'm reading along and I realize that I have just finished the last page of "Earth in the Balance". OMDG! What ever shall I do? I have a fever and the only cure is more climate alarmisim. But wait. No need to panic. I can go to the Amazon store on my Kindle using the CDMA whispernet link and do a search for anthropogenic climate catastrophy and get a whole list of things to buy OR SAMPLE.
See now, the sample thing is the trick. I have bought three of the five items I have sampled IN JUST TWO WEEKS.
OK OK, sure. I'm easy. But I can't help but think this will put even some of you more wary trout on amazon's stringer.
