Aren't rumors fun? I'm not sure how the changes mentioned could be considered "skipping three or four generations" but a larger format option may make sense for some people. Oh and I'm sure the pink model will be popular with the tween girl crowd. They are big ebook readers right?

You would not catch me with a pink Kindle. Now, a plum colored one or spring green to match my laptop and I'll be all over it!
I guess we'll see *if* the number of generations skipped is correct *if* and *when* we see it. You're right, rumors are fun. |

Maybe this will also herald an international version available in places other than the US.
We live in hope... |

So.......does anyone know how accurate "crunchgear" has been with their 'on good authority' stories in the past? Or is this like a "highly placed sources who wish to remain anonymous say' type of thing?
