Much more interesting than the original article are some of the comments on the site, including those from people with some real qualifications in business analysis. By the end, the original poster has been pulped beyond recognition.

And I forgot! I spoke at a Jane Austen Society of North America meeting in May, about, among other things, e-books of Jane Austen novels (and of course I mentioned those available here at Mobileread) and one of the 40 or so attendees had a Kindle and was all about showing it off. Coals to Newcastle, there, but it was neat that we both had devices and could show everyone how they worked. I also brought my Treo and Tungsten E2 to show how one could read ebooks on the devices one already had.
