Do you think that Apple told their employees to get on Engadget's website and stuff the ballot box!

This might be addressed elsewhere, but who pays for the internet access on the Kindle? Does Amazon give the ISP/phone company a kickback for every new user account?

Note: the Nokia N810 is not an e-ink device: it's an LED-backlit LCD.

Truth. But it is a good gadget. High res (800 across, 480 down) and sexily small, it's my preferred device for surfing the web when my daughters won't let me near the laptop. I prefer the Iliad for book reading, though.
